tract:
The best ventilated, sunniest, and
most easily cleaned room in the house
should be the baby's bedroom and nurs-

furniture or curtains; just simple
wholesomeness and cleanliness, with a
thorough airing every day and con-

GRAND FINALE TO ACT II.
verdi's "Aida" a Feature of Choral Con
cert Nav %.

The second evening of the May festi-
val will be devoted largely to selections
from the grand operas. The program
will be entirely miscellaneous, closing
with the wonderful Aida finale. This
has often been styled the greatest of all
ensemble music. 1t is written in Verdi's
best vein and no more popular work is
produced at our opera houses.
The choral demands are unusual, as it
requires complete male chorus in addi-
ton to the massive mixed chorus. For
this reason the choral society is doubly
anxious to enroll every male singer in
the community.
