the talented reader, Miss Marior B.
Lamont. The students were greeted
by fair sized audience, the enter
tainment being deserving of packing
the house to its utmost capacity.
However, what was lacking in num-
bers was certainly made up in enthus-
lam by those present, who gave vent
to the same in a liberal and generous
applause, each number on the program
being most heartily encored, to which
the talented young students responded
most generously.
