The musical part of the program is
unquestionably of the highest order.
Miss Beresford Joy, who has recently re-
turned from Europe, where she has been
studying the past seven or eight years,
has superb sympathetic contralto voice
and completely carries away her audi
ences. This will, no doubt, be the only
chance to hear her at the mere nominal
fee of 70 cents for reserved seats. No
lover of really first-class music can af-
ford to let this chance go by. Miss Joy
has sung very successfully in concert
and oratorio in London, Paris and other
large European centers, and has never
received an unfavorable criticism. She
has sung at st. James hall in concerts
under the patronage of the Duke and
Duchess of York, the Warehouses of
Lorne, ETC.; also at Queens hall. Peo-
pies palace and numerous other places
A contemporary says of Miss joys
voice: at has exceedingly pure and
musical qualities. Her Interpretation is
remarkably intelligent and thoroughly
| artistic The flexible power of her voice
! is great, but the MOTT potent charm is
| it's sympathetic quality and pure SYM
metry of style. tender, true and full of
| both harmony and melody
| The Krauss String quartet Is so well
and favorably known that no further
| comment is necessary. They render the
! very highest class of music and in the
highest style.
| Miss Maud Willis is supremely capti-
waiting as a reader and on this occasion
| she has promised her very best efforts.
| Owing to the sad fate of Judge Camp
| bell, who had been engaged to give the
| graduation address, Judge b. N. Smith
| has kindly consented to take his place.
| Judge Smith never disappoints his audi
| ence, He Is forcible speaker and tells
| plain truths in a plain and common sense
| way.
Prof. E. K. Isaacs is a fluent and inter-
esting speaker. He expresses his
| thoughts in terse and vigorous language
and throws his whole soul into his adj
| dress. so that his audience not only know
what he means but that he means what
| he says.
President f. r. shrader's parting ad-
| dress to the graduates is worth nearing.
He couches the most beautiful thoughts
| in mastery English. and, without osten-
| tation or display, his words are Iuli Oh
| force and meaning.
Those who want reserved seats should
I secure them at the box office on Thurs
day; the earlier the better.

college will conduct its popular and sue
