discourses are an index of Prof. Emer-
sons methods of teaching history to his
classes in the Univetsi ty of Vermont, his
students may be regarded as rarely

Womans Club:
In accordance with the object for

the coming festival to be held from

With the splendid chorus in training
and the excellent talent engaged for solo
work, there is no doubt about the sue
cess of the convention from a musical
standpoint, but the festival ought to be
made financial success as well. The
chorus have spent the winter in rehear-
sails under competent leaders, the execu-
tive committee have given much of their
time to planning for next weeks con-
certs and the public ought to respond
with large attendance at the afternoon
and evening entertainments. The Cho-
raj Union ought to be put on such a
sound financial basis that there will be
no question as to it being a permanent
institution in this town, a means for
training our singers and for presenting
to the public the best music. 1t deserves
the heartiest support from all who are
interested in the growth of our town
and everybody ought to feel himself in
Cluded in that number. 1t is the only |
musical event of the year where all our
singers can have special chorus training
under one leader, and every festival not
only helps the participants but educates
the general public to appreciate the best
that music can offer Let everybody feel
a personal responsibility in the success of
next weeks convention and there will be
no deficit at the close and the singers
who have so generously given their time
for rehearsals will feel that their work
has been recognized
