There was a small audience at the
First Christian church Tuesday even
ing for the annual public concert of the
Ladies' Music club but the people We're
and as most of them were from local
musical circles their judgment should
be worth something. The numbers in
eluded vocal quartetteS, duets and
solos, one violin and two piano solos
and a double piano number. Singu-
larly enough the piano numbers were
received with the greatest enthusiasm
shown during the evening, Mrs. J. W.
Gofng's sympathetic rendition Of
RubenStein'S exquisite Kamenoi OstroW
getting a very cordial recall. With the
ordinary audience the piano numbers
suffer from the greater popularity of
the vocal but last nights audience was
evidently not ordinary, as Mrs. Chas.
S. Gleed's performance of Paderewskrs
CracOVinne Fantastique and Melodie
were also very well liked. Miss Char
lOtte ParkhurSt was the accOmpaniSt
for most of the numbers, Mrs. W. G.
Dicxie relieving her in the case of Miss
Irene Horner's solo and Miss Mary
Harrison accompanying Miss Ruth
Collins violin number, the third move
ment from MendelSSOhns G minor con-
certO There was some disappointment
that Mrs. George Parkhurst who sang
only in the quartettes and duets and
as usual looked lovely and was in ex-
cellent voice was not heard alone. For
some reason or other Miss Emile King,
another faVOrite, sang only one of the
numbers assigned her on the printed
programme, Donizetto's o Milo Fer
nando, which, however, gave her an OPP
portdnity to display marked talent
for the dramatic somewhat unex-
have caused her to be looked upon
rather as a lyric soprano. The pro-
gramme follows:
