AssiS, in Rendition.

An historic jubilee year was brought
to a fitting close last night by the
Christmas festival concert of the Han
del Oratorio society, assisted by the
Augustana Symphony orchestra and
soloists. The college chapel was flied
to its utmost capacity and the audience
showed its appreciation of the work
done by the chorus, the orchestra and
soloists in an enthusiastic manner.
The elaborateness of the program, the
singing OF the Jubilee Cantata" for
the first time and the presence OF E.
w. Olson of Chicago, and DIR. r. Lag
erstrom, of st. Peter, MINI. the COM
posers OF the words and music of the
cantata all contributed to the festivity
of the occasion and imbued those
present with the real jubilee spirit.
The chorus gave two cantatas. The
Jubilee Cantata" and Mendelssohn' s
Hymn of Praise" The superior work
Of Mrs Edla Lund as a director of
choruses was we'll evidenced in the
rendition of these cantatas. Too much
credit cannot be given Mrs. Lund for
having brought the chorus to such a
high state of excellence. The work
of the orchestra, under the direction
of Miss Gertrude Housed. and that of
the soloists was also good. In addition
to their solo work in the cantatas Mrs.
Marie-Sidenius Zendt and Grant Had
ley each gave a group of songs.
Interpretation by Composer.
Before the Jubilee Cantata" was
rendered E. W. Olson, the composer of
the words of the poem, gave a short
Interpretation of the lines of the opus.
He told of how, in part one. the i'm

period. The settling of the immigrants
on the prairies of the middle west and
their first harvest. Then comes the
third part. 1t was found that the
church was as necessary as the dwell
ing. Though their first church was
rude and simple it served fully their
purpose of offering thanks to God. The
fourth part shows how the scattered
churches were cemented into one body,
the Augustana synod.
In composing the music to these
words DR. LagerstrOm certainly caught
zhe spirit of the cantata and expressed
itsin his composition. Although Mrs.

listener could not understand the
words he could not help catching the

First Sabbath Service.
The orchestral part in this cantata
was especially brilliant and was well
rendered. One of the most impressive
parts in the cantata was the part de-
signaling the first Sabbath morning
service. There was the ringing of the
bell, the peal of the organ and then the
rendering of that grand old anthem,
ITO Thee, Almighty God and Father.
We Bear the Incense of Our Praise"
The work of Mrs. Marie Sidenius
Zendt and the other soloists was well
received. Those who did solo work in
this cantata were, Mrs. Zendt. Miss
Nellie Freeman, Miss Lydia HUT, Y.
Joranson and H. OLSON
In that difficult but beautiful master
piece of Felix Mendelssohn, Hymn
of Praise, the work of the chorus
was especially commendable. The
orchestra, too, supported the chorus

this cantata was beautiful and she ellie
tied much applause from the audience.

Mrs. Zendt and Miss Nellie Freeman
accredited themselves in an especially
pleasing manner and were accorded
generous applause. Grant Hadley, the
tenor, was handicapped by a cold and
therefore did not appear at his best.
The grandeur and sublimity of this
piece, wiSh its stirring climaxes, was
we'll brought out by the chorus.
Miss Zendt in Perfect Voice.
Mrs. Zendt again captivated the au-
dience with her singing. Her voice
was put to severe test, as she took
the leading solo parts in both cantatas,
besides rendering a group of songs.

to respond with an encore.

A little industry which promises to
be big thing some day is growing up
in Rock sland in the shape of the Pat
mer Manufacturing company, located
ON the second floor at 1928 Second ave-
nue.. For the amount of advertising 1t
gives this city 1t IS scarcely known
here. The business of the company is
to make remnants, pillow covers, table
covers and runners. couch covers, and
curtains and portiers of burlap, for the
Wholesale trade and the way the or
ders are coming in spells prosperity
and rapid growth for the concern.
One scarcely realizes the extent to
which college pennants and the things
that the company makes are coming
into vogue, but the fact is that their
use for decorative and other purposes
has increased by leaps and bounds
within the last two years, and as the
Palmer company is one of The pioneers
in the business, IT seems assured OF
success.
Had Small beginning.
Pierre Palmer, manager and owner
of the factory, became imbued with the
idea several years ago that there was
money to be made out Of articles man
ufactured from felt OF different colors,
articles that would appeal to college
students and high school pupils. His
first venture was to make felt ties.
They were new and hobby and sold
well, but not good enough to please
Mr.. Palmer. He branched out and
began the manufacture OF college PEN
nants, hiring half a dozen girls to aid
him in sewing them. AS his business
was almost entirely wholesale, it was
necessary that an energetic person
take up the work of introducing the
new goods throughout the country and
here Mr.. Palmer fell down. He was
able to turn out fine looking remnants,
but his men on the road did not get or
ders, and it was not long before his
funds ran out and he was compelled to
work alone and do his selling by mail
Ideas Take Hold.
He plugged away all by himself for
many months, using but two rooms in
the building in which he now occupies
the whole floor. He made pennants
and pillow covers galore and gradual
ly he forced local wholesalers to rec
nize the value of his goods and the
fact that there was a demand for
them. With a local wholesale trade
established an avenue to outside trade
was opened, and from then on the
business began to pick up. The secur-
ing of an energetic salesman at the
state university at Urbana aided him
greatly and later on he engaged repre-
sentatives at Michigan. Wisconsin and
Minnesota universities. He is now
working overtime.
