complished. Mr.. Oberhoffer, whatever

evening will go far toward establishing
his place among the conductors of Amer
lea, and 1t will not be at the foot OF
the ladder either. He has earned the
hearty gratitude Of every artist who

has made the name Of Minneapolis, and

will support her own organization and

pride will be great enough to induce
