APOLLO CLUB.
The Apollo cub concert last Wednas-
day evening was quite a society event.
and a great surprise to the music lovers
OF Wichita Very few seemed to know
what the Apollo club really was, or how
long they had been practcing, out before
the entertainment was fairly begun the
club had won a place at the top of the
musical organizations Of the city. Never
before has a chorus been SO warmly re-
ceived as were the Apollo's, every mem
Der receiving q hearty encore. Those de-
serving special mention were: "Fathr's
lullaby and Comrades ii Arms"
The success Of the club was largely due
70 the efficient and ustiring efforts OF
Prof E. c. Marshall. who has been their
director Comparatively few Of the people
knew that Wichita afforded such an able
musician. Many do not realize the work
required to take thirty voices and blend
them into such perfect harmony on so
short time. Il was readily seen that
Mr. Marshall had the entire confidence Of
every member OF the club. and Il was
surprising how every movement o. his
baton was q revelation
