ORGAN RECITAL.

An Enjoyable Affair at the First
Baptist Church Friday Night.
On Friday night, Mrs. Ola p.
Calling was heard at her best in an
organ recital, given at the First
Baptist church. Mrs. Gatling made
happy and beautiful selections for
the occasion, and she was ably assist
ed by Prof. R. M. McDermid. and her
accomplished daughter, Miss Mary
Alice Calling. The organ numbers
made profound impression upon all
who heard them, and the recital has
provoked much favorable criticism.
The numerous friends of Mrs. Cat
ling, and those who assisted her,
have already expressed themselves as
desiring a repetition OF the recital
In the not distant future. This mat
ter has already been taken under
consideration, and we learn that Mrs.
Calling will give another recital
sometime later.
