Roots opera house was filled by an
attentive and ~appreciative audience
last Wednesday evening 10 witness the
piano graduation recital of Miss
Louise Konold and to note the remark
able progress the young lady had made
under the able tuition of Mrs. Oliver.
The stage was lastly decorated with
ferns and potted plants and with the
charming young graduate beautifully
attired in a gown of spotless white
presented u magnificent picture.
Each number on the program was ap-
plauded vigorously and it was certain
ly a scene to inspire all aspirants for
musical honors. When one sees what
can be accomplished, and that by a
girl of only seventeen, it certainly pro-
duces at least the effort to attain in
the hearts Of the many students of
music in our city. 1t is very rarely
that so much is actually accomplished
along those lines as was demonstrated

pianos and orchestra conducted by Mr..
Niethe was another number deserving
much praise. Miss Jennie Goodale and
the University Glee club delighted the
audience with their singing. Judge
Groesbeck presented the diploma on
behalf of Mrs. oliver, in an appropri-
ate speech. The Judge congratulated
Miss Konold on having accomplished
great a task and spoke of her being
essentially a Laramie production. He
spoke in the highestterms of her playing
and of Mrs. divers teaching, and said
that she had started out well equipped
for her musical career. He reminded
her of the fact that the history of most
of the great public pianists had been
the mastery of very difficult compost

the recipient Of many handsome pres
ents and flowers and at the conclusion
the program scores of friends went
upon the stage and extended their hear
