hou Preparatory School was an I'M
qualified success. Miss Rogers had al
ready established name for herself
in Honolulu as a music directress by
her glee clubs concert, and full and
music-loving audience greeted the
children as they took their seats with
no small rustic Of Importance. The
stage, greatly enlarged and built in
tiers for the accommodation of so
many children, was covered with
white and gracefully decorated with
trailing vines and palms, making a
dainty setting for the eager faces.
The Star Spangled Banner" which
opened the program, was sung with a
vim that carried the house with it,
and the audience, after their hearty
applause, settled down to the enjoy
ment of an excellent program, excel
lently rendered.
The little tots from the first grade
were greeted with a smile, and went
through with their three songs with
an earnestness and charm that earned
for themselves a storm of applause.
From the first grade up there was the
evidence of careful training and drill
work in every word they sang. The
three songs sung by the third grade
were equally effective, and the chill
dren trotted off the stage with the
consciousness of work well done and
appreciated. Those in the third grade
sang their songs and did their mo-
tons with great solemnity. and their
charming childish voices We're roundly
applauded.
Throughout the program the work
of the Punahou Preparatory Chorus
was excellent, and they sang the SOL
diers' Chorus" from Faust and car
ried their parts with the ease and con-
fdence of pupils of far greater expe-
rienee. The boys choruses, although
difficult and heavy, were remarkably
we'll rendered.
Margaret Restarick, greeted with ap-
plause, faced the large audience and
sang in a clear, sweet voice, His But
tons Are Marked U. 81
The double quartet of picked voices
sang THE Little Tin Soldier ex-
tremely well. 1t was noticeable that
three of the four boys parts were car
ried by Chinese pupils.
When America" came it was with
sigh of regret, and at Miss Rogers
invitation the audience sang with a
gusto equal to that of the children,
my Country 'Tis of Thee
The accomplishments were played by
Miss Margaret Clark and Miss Irene
Fisher. Mrs. ingalls, played the vio-
lin obligato for Sing, Smile, Sum-
ber'
1t is an enormous task to undertake
the training of three hundred and
fifty children with such complete sue
cess, and Miss Rogers well deserved
the expressions of appreciation heard
on all sides. BY her tireless work,
personal enthusiasm and magnetic
leadership, she formed from unframed
children's voices a chorus that drew
and held large and experienced au-
dience.

cAurcn iast Eflday afternoon, con-
Quoted by Rev. Chas. Wilcox. Mrs.
Holbert of Presho, sister of the de-
ceased, was unable to come on ac-
count of the illness of her daugh-
ter, and Mrs. Scobell's mother was
sick at Tabor and was unable to
be present. Mr.. Scobell's eldest
son from Iowa, his daughter, Mrs.
MacLinn from Wagner, and his
nephew, John Holbert from Presho,
were the only friends from away
who were present.
Mr.. Scobell was born in Canada
in June, 1860. and was therefore
40 years and 4 months old at the
time of his death. When a small
child he moved with his parents to
Michigan where his early life was
spent. He later moved to Iowa
where for some years he operated
a steam laundry at Lemars. About
sixteen years ago he moved to
Hutchinson county, s. D., pur-
chasing a farm IL miles northwest
OF Scotland.
He vas a man of strict honor
and integrity, and took an active
part in promoting the social and
religious interests of the commune
ty in which lie lived. He also took
an interest in political matters and
was at one time a member of the
Legislature from Hutchinson coun-
ty. In his death the community
loses a valuable citizen, and the
family a devoted husband and
father.

her reputation fer these last fifteen or sixteen
years, on my own knowledge This worthy
woman had one day an unexpected call from
her friend Mrs. Veal woman who lived in
Dover. Mrs. Veal was subjects to fits, which
had given her friends some uneasiness about her
health. The visitor remarked that she was
going journey, and wanted first to see

After a time, Mrs. Bargrave learned to her
horror that Mrs. Veal was dead, and that she
had passed away twenty-four hours before her
visit to Canterbury. So the visitor was her
ghost! Mrs. Bargrave told Mrs. Watson that
the ghost was dressed in 4 secured silk, and
thereupon Mrs. Watson exclaimed, - You have

more foundation than imagine; but it is
hard to put much confidence in a romancer of
Defoe's known habits, especially in connection
with a ghost story.
