vealed that the settlement of large
tracts of Missouri land is being

the Legislature at its next session,

to that end. The Committee is

l take this notice from the Pop
lar Bluff Citizen of a recent date
"We regret that no bushy haired
i~mpressario with an unpronounce-
able name was present last eve l.
ing at the Harrington Roehry and
Hoeller recital at the opera house
so that we could solicit his good
offices in criticising the young
artists in their first really notable
appearance before a Poplar Bluff
audience. For we just simply can
not c~riticise them ourselves. We
really don't believe he could.
Yet he might have taken a shot or
two at somebody's technique or
told us learnedly wherein a note
was a little shy of this or that or
shaded a little too much here or
there. But we honestly don't be-
lieve he could have made good
with us as a critic mo, not at all.
We know good music when we
hear it, and most of the audience
there last night does, too. And
we are willing to stake our reputa-
ton on this statement: That the
recital was the equal, if not the
superior, of any similar exhibition
given in Poplar Bluff at least in
the last three years. Miss Har-
rington's superb contralto voice
was absolutely under her COM
mand, and she was a perfect COM
mander. Miss Roehry's piano
playing was a revelation of skill
and sympathetic understanding.
Mr.. Hoeller was master of that
wonderful instrument, the violin.
1t is best to stop here rather than
get into deep water trying to go
into details. Suffice that should
fthe two young women, who re-
joiced the heart and ear and
musical soul of a fine audience last
night, assisted as they were by
such a thorough musician as Mr..
Hoeller, ever entertain the thought
of again appearing here in public
we want to be counted among tine
most hearty supporters and pro-
motors of their success"
The following is taken from last
