$500,
Mrs. schouten,s Recital.

A large ana enthusiastic duuiSASo
filed the auditorium of the Christian
church last evening to greet Mrs,
Henry R. Schouten in song recital
under the auspices OF the Y. w. d.
NJ auxiliary.
Mrs. Schouten possesses a dramatic
contralto voice of great range, sweet
ness and power which combined with
a pleasing personality binds and holds
the attention OF the audience from
the beginning OF the program to the
closing number. Her program was
diversified, interesting, and we'll
grouped.
The Aria from Madam Butterfly
was presented in italian and was SO
well sustained and the spirit OF the
composition so thoughtfully interpret
ed that the audience felt the keen
disappointment experienced by the
little Madam Butterfly.
The childreps' songs we're sung
with a daintiness and childish grace
which gave evidence of the singers
ability as versatile artist.
The most intensely dramatic num-
Der on the program was the closing
number. Goodbye, by Tosti. It was
given with an intensity which must
be lived in the heart of singer De-
for it can be presented as Mrs
Schouten gave it. This song was
given a new Interpretation at her
hands and one w.licl will not soon be
forgotten by these who we're fortun
ate enough to hear it.
Mrs. Schouten was assisted in the
presentation of her program by our
own artist pianist, Miss Clara Gers-
rude Fry. Miss Fry's accomplishments
were dream of beauty, meeting the
singers every mood with keen per-
ception and fineness Of distinction
that is seldom heard
Miss Fry also played solo, Phan-
TASTE, by Mendelssohn, which has
never been heard on concert pro
gram in Keokuk. It is a masterful
composition which displays excellent
technical equipment and command of
the artist over her chosen instrument.
1t also gave evidence of remarkable
interpretative ability as every meas
sure OF the composition is fraught with
extreme difficulties.

THE HEART OF THE TREES.
+ What does he plant who plants tree?
He plants the friend of the sun and

He plants the flag of the breees free;
The shaft of beauty towering high;
He plants a home to heaven anigh
For song and mother Groom of bird
In hushed and happy twilight heard
The treble of heavens harmony
These things he plants who plants a

What does he plal4t who plans a
tree?
He plants cool shade and tender rain
And seed and bud of days to be,
And years that flush and fade again,
He plants the glory of the plain;
He plants the forests herita ge;
The harvest of /. coming age;
The joy that unborn eyes shall seq
These things he plants who plants a
tree.
What does he plant who plants a
treer
He plants. in sap ard leaf and wood,
In love of home and loyalty
And far-cast thought of civic good
His blessing on the neighborhood,
Who in the hollow of his hand
Holds all the growth of all our land
"A nations growth from sea to sea
Stirs in his heart who plants tree.

 The new coach said recently: There is no reason whatever why the. Red and Blue should not be successful in rowing. There are hundreds of pow erful young men here who have every physical requisite to make good oars men,. Among them am sure to find enough candidates with experience to form nucleus around which to build winning combinations. The Penn crews will row the same stroke that was so successful at Detroit.''
