GATHERING OF MANY GREAT SINGING SOCIETIES
Twenty-Five or More Societies Will

which is to be held in Houston May

than one society in several of the
larger cities, there will be no lack of
singers for the leader to WELD his
baton over
In addition to these German male
societies, the combined musical clubs
of Houston will have great massed
chorus, to be under the skilled direc-
| ton of HUI T. Huffmaster and Julian
P. Blitz, both of them thorough mu-
sicians and leaders of distinction.
They are both professionals and have
during, the past few years attained
considerably more than a local repu-
tation. Practice upon, their numbers
is now going on and there is much en-
| thusiasm among the local musicians.

noon is also to be big event. There
are few buildings in Texas so large
as the Houston Auditorium and it will
take every inch of the space to accom-

will be the principal guests for the
