 The concert given by the entertain ment committee of the Farm improve ment association on Wednesday night, was a delightful affair but poorly pa trorized owing to Insufficient advertis- ing. The program was presented by Frank Lloyd Stuchel, violinist; Miss Wilky of Phoenix. soloist: Mir. Allen. also of Phoenix. as reader; Miss Laura Schmidt of Tempe, pianist and Miss Hartman of Phoenix who danced.
 Professor StuchaIs playing was, as usual, beyond comparison and espe- cially during his rendering the "Lulla- by from "Jocelyn." the house was so quiet that there was not even a breath audible.
 Mr. Allen gave a beautiful alIegorical reading from Oscar Wilde and also a little character sketch from Joseph C. LincOln's Cape Cod Folks" Miss Will ky's rendering of Scotch songs "The Land of the Sky blue Water" and I'm Wearin ava Jean" was charming, and Miss Schmidts' piano selections were played in her usual wonderful manner.
 In lighter vein was the song and jmpersonation of Vernor Elliott. and the visit of the three Maids from Mars.
 The closing number was the old French court dance. presented by Miss Hartmann. who Tavo graceful and beautiful interpretation.
