4 DELIGHTFUL ENTERTAINMENT

Reader. Greeted by Apprecia.
tive Audience.

Miss Loretta BigeloW, the well
known dramatic and humorous
reader, delightfully."- entertained
a small but appreciative audience
in the Congregational tent Wednes-
day evening. It is to be regretted
that not more availed themselves
of the opportunity to hear this tai
ented and accomplished young lady.
but it is hoped that another APP
pearanee may be arranged for her
in this city some time this fall or
winter when she would no doubt
be greeted by a large audience.
The numbers given by Miss Bige-
low were all high class and show a
fine sense of discrimination in their
selection from the vast amount of
current literature in addition to the
classics. She is possessed of
sweet voice and at no time gives one
the impression of using forced ex-
pressions or attitudes, appearing
perfectly natural during her rendi-
tions, which adds greatly to the
effect. 7 he program included
both dramatic and humorous read
ings, and, while she appears to
good advantage in both lines, she
excells especially in the more SER
ious selections in which she instills
a feeling which cannot fail to move
her audience.
