An Excellent Program.

A good sized audience listened with
pleasure to the program given IN the
Y. M. C. A. auditorium last evening
by the Students Auxiliary OF the
Monday Music Club.
The program, Dances OF Famous
Composers" was well chosen and quite
representative, comprising selections
from the works OF the following com.
posers: Gounod, Beethoven. Thomas
Mosckowski, Brahms, Paderewskl.
Chopin, Strauss and Neidlinger.
While ambitious, as such a program
should be, 1t was, at the same time
not without the bounds of possible
achievement by those who undertook
the interpretations. Much Of the
work was distinctly worthy, showing
both musical conception and the
technique to express it.
Accuracy in detail and more artistic
shading will develop as the student
himself develops in sincerity and IN
derstanding. The orchestra did some
very good work for SO young an or
ganization and its numbers were
much enjoyed.
In fact, if we may Judge from the
unstinted applause, each number was
most heartily appreciated and enjoy
ed by the audience.
Miss Eleanor Hughes, advisory
chairman and Mr. Carlos Meador
who proved himself quite an authors
tative leader of the small orchestra
were responsible for the program and
are to be congratulated for both its
artistic and popular success as an
entertainment.
