Anna FoltZ and Chorus Crowd the
Christian Church.
Plainville, Kan. April 22.@The
Christian church chorus. consisting of
Sc voices under the direction of Mrs.
Anna Foltz, rendered the beautiful
cantata, THE ConQuering King" in
the Christian church here to an audi
ence Of nearly one thousand people.
The platform was beautifully deco
rated with plants from local homes
and with flowers from the Salina
greenhouse.
The work Of the chorus was superb,
rejecting the splendid training given
by Mrs. Foltz.
At Christmas time the chorus gave
a cantata. Interest has SO grown that
there is now no building here of suf-
ficient capacity to hold the crowds at
tending.
There were large numbers of people
present from nearby towns and all
were greatly pleased.

If the annual meeting Of the Ladies
Of the G. A. r. appears to need some

Jubilee. We'll be with you forty
strong" is the message the members
of the club have sent to Col. Harrison.

will do the most good" That means
that the Modocs will keep things
