The first number of the High School
Lecture Course, an entertainment by.
the Shipp Concert Co. was given in the
gymnasium of the High school Friday
evening. The company consisted Of
Miss Ship, soprano; Miss Harrington,
contralto; Mr.. Loar, accompanist, and
composer of several of the selections,
and Miss Richardson, violinist. Miss
Ships sweet soprano was most eff
fective in rendering national songs,
which were given in costume. Miss
Harrington was especially strong in
plantation melodies, and negro dialect.
MIR. Loar seems to be something of
genius, having invented musical in
strument which he calls, the mando-
lin viol, combination of mandolin
and violin. On this he played national
airs with variations, and gave a most
realistic INIT alton of a conversation be-
tween man and his wife, when the
man came home at three A. M. Mr..
Loar also gave an imitation of Pader-
weski at the piano, in costume. There
was very good audience, and the
management feel that the lecture
course promises to be very successful.
