Memberships Oratorio Given at
DEBORAH June IL.

The DEBORAH Choral Union under the
leadership of Prof Carlo Sperati was
organized in 1905. Since that time the
music lovers of DEBORAH and surround
ing communities have had the privilege
of hearing the best in music. The
oratorios St. Paul, Creation and Mes
saih have been given.
This year on June 18th, Mendel-
ssohn's Oratorio "ELIJAH" is to be
given by the Choral Union. For the
past eight months the Union has been
laboring with untiring efforts on this
perhaps the most difficult of oratorios.
Under the efficient dictatorship of Prof.
Sperati chorus has developed which
has no equal in Iowa.
The soIoists for this occasion are to
be four of Chicago's most noted sing
ers. Mrs Mabel Sharp Herdien, who
takes the soprano role, is recognized
as one of Americas foremost sopran-
oes. Mrs. Downing the contralto is
perhaps the least known to DEBORAH
ians, but bears an enviable reputation
among the Chicago artists. Elias Bre-
din is the tenor for the occasion. OF
all the bass singers before the public
today, Marion Green is perhaps the
most in demand for Elijah. This par
ticular part seems to have been writ
ten especially for ibis voice. For five
years past Marion Green has Travelled
as soloist with the Thomas Orchestra
of Chicago. To say more than this is
unnecessary.
Such soloists as these together with
chorus of over one hundred of De-
corah's finest voices, and an excellent
orchestra of twenty pieces should not
fail to attract music lovers for one
hundred miles around.

feature of that great weekly farm pub
LEGATION, The Iowa Homestead, but has
a dependable value. Even its adver-

advertisements of single week afford
a means by which a farmer may save
enough to pay his subscription for a
lifetime. The Homestead wants live
