= A FINE RECITAL
Miss Edith johnson and Miss Ethel
Wade Render Excellent Program
at Augustana College.

The recital given by Miss Edith
Johnston and Miss Ethel Wade at
Augustana chapel last night was one
of unusual excellence and evoked
much favorable comment from all
who heard it. The two young
ladies will receive their diplomas in
voice and violin, respectively, from.
the conservatory next Tuesday eve,
ming. They are both unusually gift
ed, and their performance last eve.
ming bodies well for their future
Miss Johnston possesses voice Of
unusual richness. 1t is pure, sweet
and lyrical in quality and covers a;
wide range. Her technique is SPLEEN;
did. Her only shortening is in voli
ume, but the deficiency in quantity
is more than made up in the rich
quality of her voice.
Miss Wade is also young lady of
much promise. Although only IT
years of age, she has attained a mas
terry of the violin which would do
credit to player of many years ex-
perience. Her principal merit lies in
her expressive Interpretation. Her
tones are clear, sweet and sympa-
thetic, with no trace of flaw. Her
freedom and grace of movement, to-
gether with her easy pose and un-
conscious manner. also add to the
pleasure of listening to her.
