Congratulated upon the wonderful sue
cess of his first recital which he gave
last evening in the High School Audi
forum when he presented number of
his older pupils. The affair was attend
ed by over three hundred persons and
was the most delightful event of it's
kind ever given in this city The pu-

congratulated. 1t would be hard to
stint the praises as the applause after
The different numbers were lavish. The
event began at eight o'clock and came
to close at about nine thirty. Profess
sor Hicks showed excellent judgment
in arranging the program as it was
just long enough and not at all tire
some. In fact the guests were loathe to
depart after the closing number.
Professor Hicks was ably assisted
by Mrs. Charles Igelman and Mrs.
Fred Bartel who sang a beautiful duet
in their usual accomplished manner.
