inc of voices Miss Dickirson's second
alto was, in our opinion the special fea-
ture. It was voice full Of harmonious
melody, the deepest ever heard from
the Institute stage. Her recitations
were also good. Miss Donovan's rem
dition OF ''Camena' was delightful.
Her voice is round and sweetand reach
es the high notes without effort Miss
Learitt as violinist is charming. Miss
SIMPSONS first alto was much enjoyed;
The quartet won merited approval
from the audience, especially their
rendition of 'iMinnehana"-this was
grand. The quartet in costume The

and for final encore the young ladie:
sang ;:Dixie" which always finds sou,
stirring response in every audience. i
was indeed nice concert.
