East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1912-06-22

The weeks crowning event in both
the social and musical world was the
afternoon affair yesterday at which
Mrs. Leon Cohen was hostess to
local society at her handsome
north hill residence. Mrs. Cohen was
most happy in securing the assistance
of Portland's well known and favOrite
contralto, Mrs. Rose Coursen Reed,
who gave a rare musical treat to the
guests Mrs. Reed was in her best
voice and sang with consummate art
a varied and interesting program of
French, German, Italian and English
songs. One of the most admired
numbers was Sous Les Oranges"
(HOlmes) in which her truly rare
contralto tones were heard in all their
fullness and beauty. "On the Road
to Mandalay" was another favorite
with the guests who insisted upon its
repetition.
Mrs. John Ross Dickson assisted
Mrs. Reed in her program, giving two
Schumann numbers which were most
heartily appreciated and applauded.
Mrs. Dickson is one of Pendleton's
most accomplished musicians. Be-
sides her vocal selections, she also
proved a most sympathetic accom-
panist for Mrs. Reeds numbers.
