country, coming to America ten

English, speaking several Ian
gnages beside his native tongue.
The musical program will be the
rarest treat Point Pleasant has ever
enjoyed.
Major j. B Downing. of Middle
port, will render several violin
selections for the occasion. Major
Downing was FIRST n tural violin
ist. Wherever he was heard peo-
pie at once recognized the master
but he determined to learn the
tecnique of the violin and became
the pupil of the greatest master
Ole Bull.
Those who have heard both the
teacher and the master have pro-
nounoed Msjor Downing's rendi-
tione equal to his teachers, and
then, too, he lends his soul, not
only to the music of the masters,
but he is SO attuned to pathos of the
the Southern melody, the national
airs or the simplest lullaby. making
his music enchanting.
He contributes his services be-
cause he appreciates the violin
He plays only for his friends, NOT
as professional. yet he has been
greeted by packed houses of mus

Miss Moore is not only a most
successful teacher of the violin,
but her execution is very fine. She
is not only a musical favorite here
but a personal favorite and all OF
her old friends will be glad fol
another occasion to hear her.
Miss Bryan has been invited to
sing, and Point Pleasant has al.
ways appreciated her. and on this
occasion she has promised one Of
her best songs.
Miss Haptonstall is musician
that is true musician. She plays
with her soul at her finger ends
She will render an overture, and
another selection during the ever
ing.
Prof. Jansen will give Anvil
Chorus that will be worth the price
of admission.
Taken as a whole it be the most
delightful entertainment ever given
in the town. The theme is suffi-
cient to guarantee an overflow.

SO laudable as to enlist the sympa-
thy of the entire community and
of every lover of history.
