with Caman's orchestra gave the march
and chorus from Tannhauser in splendid
style.
The third period, Modern Tendencies
Of Opera" a paper read by Miss
Nellie Sharp Of Kansas City, Kan, in
whose absence was read by Miss Bay
less of Fort Scott Miss Sharp thinks
that opera is on the wane, or is resting,
More especially is this true in France,
Italy and Germany. America has little
native music, but is eager for the must
cal creations Of the old world. Although
Miss Sharp asserted that opera is on
the wane, she nevertheless believes that
more attention is paid to it now than
formerly, and that this interest is adj
vancing culture. The selection from
Carmen by Mrs. Houston Whiteside of
Hutchinson was greeted with enthusi-
asm.
The closing musical numer was Schu-
bert's Serenade, rendered by the Win
field mixed chorus. Miss Fannie Marper
of Winfield acted as accompanist.
