Death Of Mrs. NJ E. Aull.

Mrs Mary Ellen Aull died
Tuesday morning az about four
o'clock at her residence south of
town after a short illness of hear
disease. Although in her eighty
first year, Mrs. Aull had been
in good health close up to the
time Of her death and the news
of her having passed away, came
as a sad surprise to the com
munity.
Mary E. Meteer Aqll was born
in Monroe County, Missouri,
March II, 1882, the daughter Of
William and Sarah Meteer of
Augusta County, Virginia. By
the death Of her parents while
she was quite young, she was
left an orphan. In 1917 she
came to Lexington with an uncle,
John Allen, and after living with
his family for a while, Mrs. Aull
made her home with Miss Eliza
beth Aull. the founder of the
noted Elizabeth Aull seminary.
She was married in this city
February %, 1853, to John Aull,
and a long happy life followed
the union until 1898 when her
husband died at Philadelphia,
where he had gone for medical
treatment. Mr.. and Mrs. Aull
were the parents of nine children
one Of which, George, died in
infancy. The other eight, all of
which attended the bedside of
their mother during her last i'll
ness, are as follows: Mrs. Alex
ander Graves, John, William,
James, Virginia, Edward and
Watson P, of this city and Mrs.
S. Percy Silver of Mercedes,
Texas.
1t is useless to eulogize the
life of this good woman. The
good she has done in serving the
purpose of her Maker impresses
i'-elf deeper than words can ever
do. She lived life which was
a blessing to those with whom
she came in contact, and her
death has cast a shadow, hard to
vanish, in the hearts of the fam
lily and the community. She
is recognized as one who has
given her life for true Christian
charity, in denying herself for
her husband and children and in
alleviating the sufferings Of
others.
70 the bereaved family the IN
telligencer joins in with the com
munity in extending a heartfelt
sympathy. 1t is humane to
grieve when loved one is taken
away, but the sorrow in this
case should be assuayed by the
fact that her long, good life was
a blessing and that it can truth
fully be said, "a good woman
has passed to her reward. "
The funeral was held Thursday
afternoon at 3 o'clock from the
home. Rev. w. A. Hall, pastor
Of the Presbyterian church, con-
Quoted the services.

Concert Etude MACDOWELL
1t was easy for one acquaint-
ed with the genius of Sherwood
to see the effects of association
with him in the work of Miss
Kober. She gave informal talks
before several of the numbers, ex
planning their significance and
aiding the audience in appreciat-
ing them. Her strength and
vitality are marvellous. The play
ing of such a program as hers
would tax the energy of most
pianists, but she had as much
force at the END as al rlte 'oegin-
ming.
Every number on the program
was given with wonderful tech
nique, keen appreciation of its
meaning and truly artistic fin
ish. 1t would be difficult to
pick out the most pleasing. The
Chopin Scherzo, The Grieg Con-
ccrto, the Sherwood Exhilaration,
tl, Mcdowell Concert Etude
were the most brilliant
and caused tumultuous ap
plause. But the Beethoven
Sonata, the Sherwood Autumn,
the Debussy "Eu Bateau" and
MacDowell's "To a Water Lily, F"
which was given as an encore
showed that Miss Kober has
soul as well as technical genius.
Miss Kobe1 has charming
personality, high ideals and won
derful attainments. She stands
not for OstentatlOn but for true
musicianship. She is a force
for the best in the music
world. Those who heard her
know that she is entitled to
rank among the first American
women pianists. Miss Robbins
is to be thanked for bringing her
to Lexington.

Miss Grieser is Lexington
girl and her performances at
Lexington college entertainments
since she first played at chill
drens' recitals have always caus-
ed much favorable comment. Her
development has been steady and
gratifying. Under the efficient
instruction of Miss Robbins she
has grown from a talented child
to aEoHng lady capable of play
ing adequately music Of great
difficulty. Monday evening
she showed remarkable finish
and clear conception of her
numbers. But in the brilliant
numbers she was at her best,
Her playing of the difficult
Rhoinberger Fugue, the demand
ing movement from the concerto
and the Sherwood Exhilaration
was cspe, ally good. At the
close Of her last number she was
forced to respond to an encore.
Miss Mayes did fully her share
in her part of the program. She
reads clearly and intelligently,
showing complete sympathy with
the characters she portrays, She
possesses, moreover, an admirable
stage presence. Some of her
numbers, particularly the scene
from Macbeth, were extremely
demanding; but her interpreta-
tion was always excellent. Her
last number, a humorous one,
brought forth many peals of
laughter. The audience tried to
get another reading; but had to
be content with bow.
After the program there was
an informal reception and Miss
Grieser and Miss Mayes received
many deserved compliments.
