Ladies' Welsh Choir which will entertain the Park Opera House Monday under the auspices of
eWomans Club m city, ThOCeedsg for the benefit Of the Carnegie Public Library

Welsh music as produced by the
Mountain Ash male chorus in this
city a few months ago proved to be
one Of the most popular departures
ever tried in this city. The company
of singers that gave the well-remem-
bered entertainment was entirely
masculine. Just what the ladies of
Wales can do in the same line, Grand
junction people can Judge when the
Royal Welsh Ladies' choir make their
first appearance here Monday, Jan
uary s.
This famed company of feminine
musicians comes under the auspices
of the Woman's club of this city.
Like the Mountain Ash choir T. has
sung before royalty many times and
has achieved an enviable reputation
in international musical circles
Welsh music will not predominant
but the ladies will deliver severa!
folk songs in the vernacular while
the remainder will be the best pop
ular and classical composition of the
time. Their remarkable ensemble
work has brought praise from all
quarters and the solo numbers have
attracted attention wherever they
have appeared.
The proceeds of the entertainment
will go to the benefit of the Carnegie
library.
