Miss Orissa Forester, one OF the best

Hurry In musical circles.
Last Monday. Miss Forester. who is

OF the choir OF the First Baptist church,
acting on Instructions from the music

Forrester met the committee. and after
the meeting IL was announced that Miss
Forrester had resigned her position and
that another singer would occupy her
place tomorrow.

Germ him beyond the sympathy which
he must naturally feel for the young lady

appointment or annoyance through
laudable ambition to extend the sphere
of her ambition.
The differences that may be drawn from
the facts as stated will hardly be diverse
Miss Forester maintains dignified re-

cheerfully: but many OF her friends feel
that spirit of broad tolerance has
hardly been displayed I'm the apparent at
