The members o the Salem club of
the Oregon Agricultural college will
be hosts at a dance next Friday night,

will be held at the armory.
y
The last of a series of stepping par
ties given by the Cherry City Dancing
club this winter was enjoyed by the
members and about thirty guests on
Tuesday night at Cotillion hall.
Mrs. Connell Dyer and children will
return this evening from a month IS
stay at Newport.
An enthusiastic audience enjoyed
the organ recital given on Tuesday ev-
ening last at the First M. E church
by T. s. Roberts, president of the
Tuesday Musical club. Assisting him
were Miss Leila Belle McCaddam, Miss
Louise Benson, John w. Todd and Dan
+. Langenberg, vocalists, and F. e.
Sanders, pianist. The program was
largely drawn from opera, though 9TH
er sources were used.
Mr.. Roberts organ playing was, as
it always is, an ever new and growing
source of delight to his hearers. 1t dis
plays an easy command of all the re-
sources of the instrument. The 'Grande
Dffertorie' by Batiste, with its bril-
liant coloring, well developed theme
and superb climax, finely represented
the modern French school of organ mu-
sic. An exquisite bit was the ''Spring
Song" by Hollins, who is one of the
most gifted and original of English or
gan composers. In the Overture to
Stradella", Mr.. Roberts secured well
nigh orchestral effects. This piece,
with it's sparkling melodies and bound
ing rhythms, was the browning num-
Der of the program. Hardly, if at all,
second to it in the same field was the
Grand march from "'The Queen of She
ba, I" by Gounod. The well known Mis-
e~rere'' from 'fIl Trovatore' was made
interesting eve to those familiar with
it by MI. Roberts musicianly render
ing. Mr.. Roberts mastery of the ae-
companist g art is too familiar to all
to need further mention.
Truly dramatic and commanding was
Dan +. L~angenberg's singing of the
Invocation from "Robert lie Dia-
ble,' - Meyerbeer. When his hearers in
sisted on a recall, Mr.. Langenberg
favored them with a beautiful aria
from Verdi s "Ernani,' to which he
did full justice. eff With all Your
Hearts," tenor solo from Mendel-
sshon's "Ehjah," found John w.
Todd able to put into it the sincerity
N ,l aoAS1sAv 20 4Ra1sn~ rrhiah - DO
mands. The "Barearolle'' from Often
bach's "1The Tales of Hoffman" is
perhaps the best known and most beau
tiful specimen of this style, and the
Misses Benson and MsCaddam sang it
most delightfully."-. Highly enjoyable
wa "Cujus Animam'' from Rossini's
6 'Stabat Mater" f. E. Sanders at the
piano and T. S. Roberts at the organ,
both performing their parts with taste.
The twenty fifth anniversary of the

Honor lodge, number 10 formed the oc-
casion of a ~pleasurable celebration
