 Several times recently the party guilty Of stealing the milk has been seen, but before those watching him could get out of the house he had disappeared. The disappearance of the milk frequently works great hardship on the customer as in many cases they have small babies dependent upon the milk
 'If the party taking the milk is really in need and is hungry can probably arrange to supply him tenn porarily, if he will make himself known to me. He is being watched and if he is caught in the act he will be prosecuted"

CONCERT
Of Local Artists Indicates
Golden Futures for Them

A furore was created at the high
school auditorium Monday evening by
the concert of two local students of
the Conservatory of Music, Cincin-
natl, Mr.. Harold Ahrendt, violinist,
and Mr.. Walter Wood, pianist, assist
by Miss Edna Renner of Cincinnati,
vocalist.
Both Mr.. Ahrendt and Mr.. Wood
we're recognized as musicians of great
promise before they entered the Con-
servatory of Music, but their work
Monday evening was of such an in
finitely high calibre as to surprise
and delight the most enthusiastic of
their many friends in this city.
Mr.. Ahrendt was urged to accept
a position this winter with the Gin
cinnati Symphony Orchestra, but his
instructor felt that the proper time
had not arrived, so the offer was re-
jected. Mr.. Wood is continuing his
piano study, along with pipe organ
work and holds forth abundant prom
ise, while Miss Renner, imported for
the concert, simply delighted the
large audience which congregated to
pay tribute to the local musicians.
Many encores were demanded by
the audience and each number was
reluctantly let pass. In the more diff
ficult movements, Mr.. Ahrendt pos
sessed an understanding of interpre-
tation rarely heard in one so young,
and the final number, concerto in
e minor, left the audience spell
bound.
1t is only to be hoped that Mr..
Ahrendt and Mr.. Wood will take ad-
vantage of their vacations each year
to give a concert in this city, as an
intense interest was aroused by their
work of Monday night.
The following was the program:
Sonata in A major (HandeD Mr..
Ahrendt.
My Heart At Thy Sweet Voice
(Weimar)-Miss Renner.
Pathetique OPP. 13 (Beethoven}--
Mr.. Wood.
Souvenir (Drla)--Mr. Ahrendt.
German Songs-Miss Renner
(a) Mein Rub list hin graben

(b) Du bist vie cine Blume

(c) Ich liebe dich (Grieg).
Nocturne (Grieg)-Mr. Wood
Elegy, violin obligato (Massenet)

Concerto in minor (Mendelssohn)
