cautioned the American people agains
becoming too serious this winter.
He says, I'VE need more than eve
the relaxation of the drama and music
and should not let the good play OF
the good concert suffer-
Believing this to be true the Monda!
Music club, though beginning its &C
tivities trifle later than usual has
made plans for its eighteenth season
which will afford its many members
more diverse and interesting programs
than ever before.
Last year the high water mark in
membership was attained, the club
numbering FIVE hundred and twenty
four. This year 1t is hoped to reach
many more. There will be fifteen
programs given In the Y. W. c. A.
auditorium which are open to all mem
bers. This will include a piano re-
cital by Pasquale Tallarico and a joint
recital given by Sala, the noted eel
list and Gertrude Hale, dramatic so
prano Of New York. Other artist
guests will appear On the program
! from time to time.
A very interesting departure and
one which it is hoped will prove popu-
lar, will be the prefacing of all club
programs with community sing.
An efficient leader will be provided,
books containing the good old ballads
supplied, and every one asked to do
his part, be It small or great, in sing
ing them.
| The opening recital of the season
will be given next Monday evening in
the Y. W. C. A. auditorium by the
musical faculty of Carthage college.
! It will be short and will be follow
ed by a reception at which the par
ticipating artists will be the guests.
Following its usual custom this first
program will be open not only to
Music club members. but to friends as
well, and a RYost cordial invitation is
extended to them. A large number of
out of town guests are expecting to
attend.
Such an organization as the Monday
Music club is as much part of the
municipal machinery as the various
civic organizations.
