PUPILS RECITAL. Tuesday evening, June
9th. most successful recital of piano music
was given by some of the pupils of Miss Amy
E. Stoddard at her studio, 60 Church street.
Carroll Parker and Paul Tuttle were at the
door to pass programs to the guests. About
fifty relatives and friends we're present. This
has come to be an annual event and is eagerly
anticipated by the children. The appearance
of little Thelma Dexter, years of age. was
delightful surprise. She sang cute little
song, playing her own accompaniment, and it
was pleasure to see the baby fingers finger
the keys SO accurately. She sings in perfect
tune and rythym, and has wonderful musical
ear for child SO young. The older pupils
who were given credit for their music in the
High school this last year have done satisfac-
tory work, and we hope that more may take
the course next year, as they are given more
time to practice with better results. Credit is
given only to those who may complete the re-
CURED course in one year. Miss Stoddard has
had AZ pupils the past season, and will continue
to teach through the summer months. The
