From the Musical Courier, of
New York, we reproduce the follow
ing: "Two of Mccall Lanham' s
pupils at the American Institute of
Applied Music have been attracting
great deal of attention this season
by their beautiful voices. One is
Miss Mary Ingram, a charming
Southern girl hailing from Bolivar,
Tenn, who possesses a high colora-
tura voice of the most beautiful
quality, which thanks to Mr.. Ian
hams admirable work with her this
past year, she is able to use after
the manner of more ripened artist.
This voice will surely win a name
for itself In the future, and as Miss
Ingram hopes to continue her work
for several years longer, we shall
hear more of her again. Her rendi-
ton of "Parla," by Arditi, and
Chaminade's cd Etc" at recent
piano recital at which she assisted
aroused much enthusiasm.
