Delightfully."- Entertained.

About sixty-five of the young peo
pc of Middletown treated large au-
dence in the Town Hall last Friday
night to a splendid entertainment in
the rendition of II comic opcretta, en-
titled "Pauline'. From start to fin,
ish the performers were accorded a
warm and appreciative reception, and
the orchestra, under the able direc,
ton of Mr.. Emory l.. Coblentz, waa
accorded much praise for their part
in the program.
The music of the oprrtta was
catchy and had that swing to II
that one could hardly resist keeping
time" to its rythm.
1t is certainly comm"ndablr to the
young people of Middlrtown, and cs-
pccially to those who SO admirably
trained this large number of person
to undertake a musical production OF
this kind. 1t shows that much latent
talent in every community can h
brought out if proper leadership i,
obtainablr, and in this Middlrt"wl.
is fortunate in having such an cnthn
siastic person as Mr.. Emory l.. Go.
blcntz, who takes a delight to train
and assist in musical productions OF
decided merit, and who is assisted
by such Il capable person as Mrs.
Grace Beard Young, II daughter OF
Rev. VI. l.. Beard of Thurmont
The operctta was we'll rendered and
the rhoruscS were particularly finish
ed. The attack and release of tho
parts showed careful training.
Comparisons are ofttimrs ditlicui'
to make in commenting on individ-
al parts, hut suffice to say, they were
all well done. Particular attention
must bc called to the part Of Mr..
Chas. Rhoderick in "Cncle Joe.
Ills acting was that of Il professional
and not that of an amateur. He was
by far the favoritc of the evening,
