rooms Of the club we're filled despite the in
terse heat and everybody thoroughly enjoyed
the program.
Mr. Wiley Is not washingtonian- On the
contrary he belongs to New York, where he
has a large class. He comes over here each
week to teach and give song recitals. His

and he sings with supreme ease and inteIli-

artist, and his rendition Of a group Of songs

expended as much thought in the choice of
songs as they did in their Interpretation.
Those who assisted in the musical entertain
ment were Mrs. c. ". Fairfax, Mr.. Charles
Lewis Pollard Mr.. Thomas Morrison. jr.. Miss
Artridge Y. Jacobs, Mr. Henry r. Rives Mis-,
Edith n. Pollard, Gr. H. s Whitney, Mr. W.
