WAR RELIEF CONCERT.
Great Musical Treat in Store for st.
Johnsbury People September IL.

On the evening of Monday, Sep
unusual excellence will be given in
the Grace Methodist Episcopal
church for the benefit of war relief
work which has been so conscien-
tiously carried on by the various or
CARNATIONS in town.
Due to the kindness of several mu-
sicians, long residents of st. Johns
bury, the program will be unusually
varied, including vocal numbers by
Mrs. George E. .Howes and Miss Ber-
tina w. Swift, harp solos by Miss An
ma Welch of New York, violin num-
bers, by Miss Helen Boynton and trios
with Hugh MacKinnOn at the organ,
assisted by Miss WEIGH, Miss Boynton
and Whitney Landon, 'cellist.
Mrs. HoWeS, Miss Swift and Miss

St. Johnsbury audiences who have
enjoyed their music many times.
In the harp solos there will be op-
portunity to hear not only an instru-
ment rarely heard in ST. Johnsbury
but a player of unusual ability.
Mr.. Landon completes the trios in
a most delightful and satisfactory
manner.
1t will be the greatest musical
treat made available for st. Johns
bury in some time and deserves most
hearty support from the townspeople.
The whole program will be printed
