greeted by full house at the COngrega-
tional church Saturday evening. The
concert. was a real musical treat and
the audience an appreciative one. The
club this season is unusually well bal
anced, making the chorus numbers very
effective. In addition to the ensemble
numbers. the program was varied with
baritone and violin solos and selections
by a male quartet.
The club opened the program with
Billiards. "Comrade Song" and June
Time" by ]. Lewis Browne, two splen-
did selections.
Mr. Duckworth, who has well
trained and resonant baritone voice,
sang Border Ballads" in fine style, fol-
lowed by the Roses Of Picardy" as IN
encore. Mr.. Duckworth is a promising
young pianist as well as vocalist.
The male quartet then appeared,
singing sweetheart by w. b. Odds.
This was one of the gems Of the even
ing.
The Sailors Song and humorous
selection by the glee club, elected much
laughter and applause from the al
dience.
Prof. d. E. Beck, the director of the
club, played two violin solos, "AdagiO
Pathetique' and "Canzonetta." MIR.
Beck was accompanied upon the piano
by MI. DuckwOrth. Mr.. Beck is fin
islled yiolinist and these two difficult
selections were cleverly handled.
"Oft in the Silly Night by Thomas
Moore, and ''Robin Affair." arranged by
DUDLEY Buck, we're two enjoyable mum
bers by the club. This was followed by
two pleasing selections by the male
quartet.
The ..vagabond Song by the club
was fine performance. This was the
only club selection which was accompa-
MED by the piano and was greatly en-
joyed by the audience.
The old time parody, Tobias and
BOhunkus,.. in which eight members of
the club, beside the director took
part, brought down the house. Every
number on the program was heartily
applauded ind many Of the encores
were responded to with some rollicking
college song or humorous selection,
thereby adding plenty of spice to the
program.
The closing selection of the evening
was the old Alumni Song" 1t is the
custom Of the club, when they appear
ina city where former member of the
organization resides, to invite him to
assist in this closing number and in
response to the invitation, Dennis Kelly
of this city joined them in this final Sc
lection.
The concert was sponsored by the
Y. r. s. G. Il. Of the Congregational
church and the young folks are to be
congratulated upon the fine entertain
ment given their patrons. 1t is also a
matter of cOngratulatiOn to know that
the young people. cleared around 800
out Of the undertaking.
; The Grinnell organization opened its
present tour at Marshallt0wn Friday
evening, and the s-Republican, in
closing it's account Of the concert, says:
All Of the club members are just dis
charged from the army and the vim
with which medley of,army songs was
sung attests the prominence of singing
{ in the service. The medley is the thing
and the collegians proved their ability
ut light as well as the classical in song.
