A DECIDED SUCCESS

The concert given last night by the Lyrian Music club of the Ensley High school at the school auditorium was a decided success and thoroughly enjoyed by the large audience present.
 The soloists Mrs Carolyn Lum Cole and Mir H. J. Posner, gave splendid interpretation of their respective parts in the cantata "The Wreck of the He's perus," as well as the rendition of sev- eral selections in the first part of the programme. They both received well de- served and frequent applause. The large chorus, composed of High school pupils, was exceptionally good and by their per- formances showed patient and careful training and their work reflects much credit on Miss Good and Miss McNei, who had the affair in charge. Miss Nina Randall played the accompaniments In her usual splendid manner. The success of the affair has given much encourage ment to the officers of the club and next season a more elaborate programme will be presented.
