Of rare pleasure, and the fact that

terpiece, will be read by Mr.. Levers,

arrangement of The Raven" Is set

most widely known modern compos.
, ers, and has. been used by David Bisp-

number Of concert tours.
Perhaps Of the greatest interest to
Honolulu people will be the second

preted, with q musical setting COM
posed by Mr.. Moss. The composition
has only been finished very recently,
and has not yet been heard even by
