val on the 9th and 7th of May, and there
will be matinee as well as Two
night concerts. Artists OF world-Wlue
reputation will be engaged to sing mere
and in order 10 obviate any possloie
disappointment that may arise through
the indisposition OF any single arust, as

citation. The club extended an invita-
tlon 10 the association to participate
and the invitation met with a very en-
thusiastic acceptance. This arrange
