An event of interest and pleasure
&C this week, which many Paris and

an American contralto singer of note,
who has studied in this country and
abroad, will sing, and there will be
also musicians from Concinnati and
other places who will take part in
the program. Mrs. Stanley and the
ladies in charge hope to make the
event a very successful benefit, and
they extend a cordial invitation to
the public to attend.
Miss Roberts is native of Hender
