The speaking was generally up to tha
usual order Of excellence, and was Thor
oughly appreciated by a large audience.
| During the programme Lyle Perry, the
accomplished cello player, rendered three
selections ia 4 finished manner. being
accompanied on the piano by Miss An
ME Inglis.
The young ladies who spoke for a
prize were Velma Melcher, Marion Lucy
Dickey, Bertha Roeine Mason, Eva Ger
tFude Smith and Mary Beatrice Kent,
while Mabel Ruth GIadding, a former
prize winner, gave Andrews The Per-
feet Tribute in manner which elected
much favorable comment.
AS among the young ladies, the audi
ence must have, as well as the Judges,
found little difficulty in awarding the
first honor to Miss Smith who, in addi-
tion to talent, seems to have profted by
previous contests of this nature. She
had as her selection the burning of the
village of DeerheId by Indians in the
early history of the English settlement
in the. United States, the piece requiring
a EiNUN NtldIZt 0i NQllN. III EdtH Nu1lfEb
she met the requirement quite accurately,
and displayed, as well, thorough com
mand Of herself.
The other young ladies. Miss Melcher
reciting Edwards Shadow Miss Dick
ey the anonymous selection How the
Gospel Came to jim 0akesn; Miss Mason
Tennyson's Revenge" and Miss Kent
Lessing's 4The End Of the Task" re-
ilected much credit on themselves and
received merited applause. One Of the
things which undoubtedly led to the
selection of Miss Kent al the winner Of
the second honor was her pleasing stage
presence, easy and not self-conseious.
Among the young. men there was
decided advance over the efforts of re-
cent years. The fact that they chose
addresses instead Of attempting the de-
scriptive helped materially because they
were more in their element. leaving the
descriptive to the young ladies' There
was little to choose among several Of the
orators. Dennis " Wells reciting An
