Northern Pacific. This train will
leave Spokane about noon on May
3rd and return after the concert of
the Mendelssohn Club in the evening.
The plan of this organization is
for the 40 members to bring their
families and have picnic supper
served in Tanglewood. Many of the
friends of the club will accompany
the two excellent concerts given on
that day. Some of the leading mu-
scians of Spokane will be visitors
The piano recital by Olga Steeb

is considered piano genius of the
first rank and her recital will prob
