gers the great big banjo with remark
able ease end she will become an expert
banjoist if she continues to improve.
Miss May Givans' recitation was well
rendered as was the guitar selection by
Mrs. j.. G. Driscoll, assisted by Miss
Nellie Madden, and responded to an on
core. The vocal duet by Miss Zue Geery
and Miss Bulah George pleased every
body as they have sweet voices which
blend in beautiful harmony. The pro-
gram being concluded everybody talked
to everybody else and INDUCED in delici-
