CONCERT
A GREAT
SUCCESS

Despite the fact that the weather man
seemed TO conspire with the elements TO
have the evening as disagreeable az pos
siblc there was a large and appreciative
audience assembled at Infantry hall last
evtEing 10 listen 10 the concert given by
the Peoples Choral association OF this
city.
The large audience room was fairly well
filed while the gallery was almost
crowded. There was an enthusiastic ap-
probation OF every number on the pro-
gram and had IL not been that no en-
cores were allowed the concert would
have been considerably lengthened.
Each selection was splendidly rendered
and with an artistic appreciation that
was really remarkable.
