Choral Union Concert.

The fifth season Df the Owosso
Choral Union opened Tuesday eve
ming in manner that augurs well for
the future success of the organiza-
ton. Despite the cold weather q
fairly good sized audience was pres
ent and made up in enthusiasm over
the excellent work Of the chorus and
the soloists: what it lacked in num-
bers.
In opening the evenings program,
President Van r. Pond spoke briefly
trials and it's triumphs and told of
what it aims to do. He urged that
the people of Owosso give the union
its hearty support.
The Union was assisted by Miss
Mary Sharpt, soprano, of Alma; Miss
Mabel Ferry, violinist, Miss Diavola
Springett, pianist; Miss Florence
Mack, soprano, and Miss Maybelle
Wright accompanist. A. E. Ferry di-
rccted the chorus.
The chorus rendered the Hunting
Song and The Moonlight, as its first
numbers, and closed the evenings
program with "A Song of Victory"
Killers masterpiece. The work of
forty persons in the chorus was ex-
ceedingly good, showing hard work,
and extensive ability and was a tri-
butte to Director Ferry, whose untir-
ing efforts have done so much for
music in the city.
Miss Sharp rendered several diff
cult selections during the evening.
Having heard Miss Sharp last year
and knowing her ability, the audi
ence looked for much from her and
was not disappointed. She has re-
markably sweet and sympathetic
voice and sings seemingly without ef-
fort. Her singing was very much en-
joyed.
Allegro de Sonata, highly dilli-
cult violin solo by Wieniawski, was
rendered by Miss Mabel Ferry in a
manner that left nothing to be dasir-
ed. Miss Ferry more than sustained
her reputation of being one of the
best violinists ever heard on a local
concert platform. The accompani-
llGHl, WUlCn was WIltJtu ny w fSIld
skis brother, and is characterized by
musicians as exceedingly difficult was
interpreted by Miss Diavola Spring
EFT in a highly capable manner.
"A Song of Victory" by the chorus
with Miss Florence Mack as soloist,
was very good. The note of triumph
ran rampant through the song and
the chorus rendition of the selection
was inspiring.
Miss Mack was at her best, and her
work justified the glowing praises
that have been heaped upon her in
musical circles.
The next concert will be given IN
January.

Help the Starving Belgians
"A Christmas Appeal.
To the Editor =

Christmas approaches ana 10 quott
the President s Thanksgiving Procla.
nation cit has been vouchsafed to us
to remain at peace with honor" The
duty and the privilege remain OF
ayerting starvation amongst the Bel
gian refugees this winter and for this
special purpose the Dollar Christmas
Fund has been organized.
1t is estimated to date that all the
help subscribed in. America-z-and it
( has been very iberal-inciuding the
aid Of the wealthy Rockefeller Foun-
dation-does not average more than
a few cents for each destitute Bel
gian-enough to buy food for a few
days!
The Dollar Christmas Fund has one
great ambition-to see that every
man, woman and child this Christmas
shall have food, clothing, shelter.
This great achievement is happily
still possible and to this end we are
working with the Christmas Fund, OF
London, which has collected for the
same purpose nearly 100000. The
cooperation of the two organizations
has many decided advantages. 1t
provides safeguard against waste
from overlapping. 1t enables our
Fund to enjoy the guidance OF men,
bers of the Belgian Government as re-
CARDS the distribution Of relief. All
our workers are voluntary and every
cent subscribed, after deducting the
cost of stamps and stationery, goes
direct to the Belgians.
Even if you have given to every
other fund we beg you in the name
of humanity to asst the Christmas
Fund for which l appeal as Treas
urer. Help to send a Christmas gift
worthy Of America tribute of SYM
pathy from one people to another
whose needs and sorrows are immeas-
ureable.
IF yourealize that millions are liter
ally faced with starvation, that child
rem are still crying for food, shelter
less women dragging their weary way
to hlep, that aged men are homeless
and shivering-and this despite all
that is being done-you will give be-
fore Christmas and give literally.
England has received 100000 of
the refugees but there are unnumber-
ed thousands still wandering in
France and Holland besides those in
stricken Belgium.
A fresh inspiration to our own
peaceful Christmas in America will
be lent if we relieve now the suffer-
ings of innocent little children un-
offending women and aged men and
Won NAV rest assured that no man s
Christmas Day will be the less happy
because in some eases the gift may
entail some measure of personal sac
rifice.
Let us remember at this crisis that
"to pity distress is but human; to
RELIEVE it is Godlike. 4"
All contributions entrusted to me
as Treasurer will be promptly and
thankfully acknowledged. Send
along your dollar-more if you can.
Yours very truly,

hands. The lighting began at 1910.
ROUND oNE-Johnson came up with a
confident smile on his lips. He sent a
left to the jaw. Moran backed around
the ring, evading Johnson's wallops. Not
much damage was done in this round as
Moran kept out Of Johnson's'way. Moran
led and fell short Then he elinched.
Moran tried for an opening, but failed.
Johnson feinted and Moran drew back.

il rather than keeping away. and John
son got the best of the round.
ROUND THREE-Moran went after
johnson hard. He landed on the negro's
ribs and then rushed in Jeffries stvle.
The blows were ineffective. however, and
johnson drove him back into a corner.

round. Moran's blows seemed to have
little effect. while every ore that John
son landed seemed TO jolt the white man.
ROUND sIx-The cut in Moran's nose.
which Johnson had inflicted in an earlier
round, was plainly visible as the white
man came from his corner for the sixth
