Of interest. Especially is this so this

solo parts also.
The Mobile Register says among
other things, that it was a very enjoy
able concert and the audience made
considerable demonstration of en-
thusiasm and the boys responded in
their best manner. 1t was very in
teresting performance, the program
being varied-college songs FREEDOM
mating, of course, but several senti-
mental ballads were introduced. The
club is strong in vocal power and is in
excellent training, and all its singing
can be deservedly praised"
Worthy of particular mention we're
the bass solo, Curly Headed Baby
by Mr.. Jere Caldwell, which called for
an encore, also much liked by the
hearers; Nevin's Mighty LAX Rose"
I with Mr. Earl Mccartney as soloist,
very approximately phrased; ROSA
lind" an air by Victor Herbert, with
Mr.. Henry Meeks leading, and the
Vanderbilt Ode, Mr.. F. D. Lander hav-
ing the tenor lead. This last Is a COM
position of much merit and was sung
with spirit and sympathetic express
| sion."
After the concert the young men
visited the Cawthorn Vineyard, where
refreshments were had, followed by
singing, with the cooperation of the
Rowley Ladies' Orchestra, and a very
pleasant hour or so was spent"
