ful violin recital in the college
auditorium on Monday evening.
Miss McNeill is Z talented and
skilled young vioiinist and she
delighted her large and appecia-

solos. The programme was we'll
arranged and all of the numbers
were exquisite selections from
the old masters of music. Miss
McNeill was assisted by her Sis
ter. Miss Carrie Belle McNeill,
who is an artistic performer on
the pipe organ. She played three
numbers and the last was espe-
cially enjoyed by her hearers.
This was the Grand Chorus"

Of harmony and the swelling
tones, every pipe in the large
organ must have been used. Miss
May Atkinson played Miss Nc
Neill's accomplishments in sweet
and soft tones. This recital was
quite a treat tc the music lovers
IN Red Springs, and all who were
present were loud in their praises
