turned to America recently, where he will
continue his functions as the Official ac-
companist Of Nine. Nordca. The prlma
donna's engagements in the United States

A diversified program, ranging from Wag-
ner to a two-step, was offered by the
Robert Cuscaden school at their recital on
the evening of January a. The two-step
scored the hit" of the evening. 1t was
composed by Mr.. Fred Cuscaden of Eric
son, Neb., and orchestrated by Mr.. Robert
Cuscaden. Miss Alice Ramsdale, Mr.. Hugh
McWhorter and MI. Frank Mach were the
school soloists chosen for the recital, and
they all played well. Mrs. Frank Welty.
contralto, a pupil of Mr. Fred Ellis, was
the soloist assisting. She sang ooh, Thou
that Telleth." from the Messiah" for her
first number, and later "Oh, Rest Thee,
Sad Heart" by Del Riego, and DE Las
Long Rest" by Carrie Jacobs Bond. The
two latter numbers were given very we'll
indeed, but it is in oratorio work that Mrs
Welty finds most fitting medium to display
her. rich round tones. She would do well to
work more along these lines Much credit
is due to Mr. Cuscaden for the continuous
efforts he makes to raise the musical tone
of his pupils and incidentally their friends.
The ladies Of All Saints gave an informal
musicale at the apartments of Mrs. Cope
at the Uintah Thursday evening, January
a. Miss Weaver, Miss Moses, Mrs. shary

The most important musical event Of
the coming week VIII be the appearance
OF Nine. schumann Heinck at the Boyd in
a song recital The programs have not yet
been published, but that 1t will be a rare
treat goes without saying.
