tanned large audience in most de.
lightful manner last evening.
The affair wss for the most part in
German and was given under the
direction of Miss Augusta Hellpen-
stell, who teaches this language at
the High school. In the execution
of the several mum bers the most care
full training was perceptible and the
way in which the young folk mas
tered the German tongue would have
done credit to new arrival from the
fatherland. All in all. it was an
exceedingly well arranged and
charmingly executed program-one
that reflected much credit on Miss
Hellpenstell's ability: and then the
scholars are entitled to no little
praise.
Miss Ethel Dougherty precluded
the opening number with a descrip-
ton of the musical accomplishments
of the Germans; how sweet their
bards sang and how they loved their
native airs. The students of
the second and third German classes
sang Farewell to the Forest:'' Miss
Olga Rochow gave nice description
of a trip through Germany; Henry
Hanson. Harry WEIGH. Charles Dur
ham and Theodore Biakesley sang
a character quartet number entitled
Jolly Jonathan;" Miss Mary Young
took her audience on tour of
Paris; the second and third German
classes sang "Holy. Night" and
The Mkt" and a mandolin club
composed OF Misses Lulu Har-
