Much interest is being manifested in
the approaching concert to be given
by the private pupils of Prof. George
b. Gookins, of Chicago. 1t will take
place at the Y. NJ. G. A. auditorium,
Friday evening, June 9, and it is need
less to say will be of a very high or
der of excellence. Not only will it
bring forward many of our recognized
soloists who have for months been
under the most careful coaching, but
it will introduce to the public many
younger voices whose quality of tone
and unquestionable talent recommends
them to an honorable place among
vocalists. Those who have heard the
voices under Prof. Gookins' training
speak particularly of the remarkable
development of power and purity of
tone as well as artistic phrasing.
Those who will appear in this first
concert are as follows: Mrs. G. Il.
Stevens. Mrs. Charles McHugh, Miss
Matte Jones, Mrs. q. A. Hansen.
Miss Elizabeth Chamberlain, Miss
Josephine Woodin. Mrs. George Dunn,
Miss Ethel Bradley, Miss Sarah Nell
vain. Miss Marion Mason, Mrs. w. b.
Barker. III. L. Wheelock. Miss Win
fred Crompton, of Moline. will be
accompanist, assisted by Miss Agnes
Bixby.
The tickets have been placed at the
nominal sum of % cents and a cordial
invitation is extended to the musical
public.
