Recital a. the Institute.
The musical recitals at the Coluln-
bia Institute have always been q
feast to the music lovers Of our city
The certificate recital by the pupils
of Miss Ashton, Miss Powell and Miss
Sanns Saturday evening charmed the
appreciative audience which filed
Woodbridge Hall. Both the breathless
silence during the performance Of
each number and the burst Of ap-
plause that followed were the out
ward evidence of the spell thrown
over the listeners by the young -nnsi-
cal artists.
The opening number by Miss Ma
rie Little, of Bay Minette, Ala, gave
a foretaste of the many good things
to follow. Her technique is clear,
her interpretations soulful. Espec-
tally was the latter prominent in the
Gondoliera by List. In the QUO,
Polacca Brilliante op. ", played with
Miss Ashton, Miss Little gave the
youthful enthusiasm and dash of her
nature,
Miss Angela Powell, of Richmond,
Mo-, four years pupil Of the Insti-
tute, and coming from musical fam
lily, being niece Of Miss Powell, was
brilliant in her several numbers, Won
derfully so in the Staccato Etude.
Miss Marjorie Clark, too well
known for an introduction, burst uron
us in new light Last year she re-
ceived her music certificate. For one
year and half she has been study
ing with Miss Sanns. Marie, Fare
: we'll, and Madrigal were studies in
fine shading in the uses of her voice
"Jocelyn" brought out the lovely soft
and high tones. "The Return" gave
great scope for fexibility and fuency
The numbers, both instrumental
and vocal were selected with the
. view of showing the range accom-
plished byNthe pupils and great credit
: is due to their teachers.

Carriers Creek in the presence of a

about the altar.
Preceding the ceremony Miss Elsie
Petway, a cousin of the bride, sans

Try Ever Told" and II Love You Try
