The citizen. (Frederick City, Md.) 1895-1923, 1902-06-06

would not have her abdicate the
throne she has so long occupied
In the family circle. | would not
have her deprived of her SOW
erignty in domestic affairs. 1t
is the "home,' as wife and mother,
where she shines with lustre she
can never display elsewhere, and
can never be rlvalled by men.
The position it should be the
ambition of every true woman to
attain. But all women will not
marry, and therefore do not obtain
the crown of"Queen of the House
hold"
Let the wife and the mother
keep the place she has always
held.
But is there any good reason
why other women should not
engage in any respectable occupa-
tion they are capable of pursuing
if they wish to do so.
And now, young ladies, wish.
ing you pleasant summer, and
for your future every good thing
that shall bring you happiness
and contentment, am ready, and
it gives me pleasure, to hand you
the diplomas you have deservedly
won.
The exercises closed with bene-
diction.

| CONCERT AND GRADUATES RE.
CITAL.
One of the most enjoyable en-
tertainments given at the
Woman's College during this the
Commencement week was the con
cert by the pupils of the Conser-
vatory Of Music at the College
Hall Tuesday night.
The audience was composed of
local music lovers and many
friends of the pupils and the in
stitution.
The program contained fifteen
mum bers, vocal, Instrumental and
a final chorus by students of the
College. Those who took part
were pupils of Misses Diehl,
Steckel, Upcraft and Mr.. Beck
with. Several had been heard
lately in private recitals and but
added to their already well won
laurels. They are candidates for
diplomas.
The character of the work done
by the young ladies was of high
degree and shows we'll the meri
tOrious work done during the year
! by the faculty of the Conservatory.
On Monday night Miss Ethel
johnson of Washington, d. c.,
gave her graduating recital at the
College Hall. She is a pupil on
the pianofOrte of Miss Marie
Diehl, and her successful debut
as soloist is alike creditable to
her own concientiOus work and
the able effort of her instructress.
Her playing is of the brilliant
kind, into which she injectS much
style and expression. During the
entire program she was entirely
self possessed and ran through
the difficult compositions from
memory with an ease and grace
that charmed the large audience
| present.
