From Wednesdays Daily.
Musical at Baptist Church.
A brilliant, colorful and somewhat
contrasted program, upheld by a
bevy of local artists, was given last
evening in the First Baptist church.
The church was fairly we'll filled with
an appreciative and responsive audi.
ence, each Of whom joined in reflect
ing great credit on the players
through their storm of cheers and
repeated calls for encores
A single criticism on the program
as whole or any of the individual
numbers would be out of place, as
the display of enthusiasm and salts
faction by the audience reflects very
commercially on the character of the
program. The musical reception.
which consisted of two orchestra
numbers. a piano solo and q harp
and cello duet, were of a high CLASH
cal nature and especially well re-
ceived. The recitations also were
met with much applause. However,
the vocal solos. by Mrs. Ida Ray
Manderfeld and Mr. ID. NJ Jones, fell
to a greater honor than the other 8
the Mankato high school, which ap-
peared in two different parts of the
program, also were greatly appreci-
ated. Their last number. ''My True
Love is a Shepherdess, was per.
haps the most enthusiastically re-
ceived. In this, Howard Johnson's
| carrying of the solo part was an
especial feature. His tenor voice
was well and favorably adapted to a
the occasion and scored big hit
with the audience. The program
was concluded by selection from
the Iverson orchestra. .
