 done, If you will support it by the individual names and amounts that 1 each one orders and send us a certi- fled check for the whole amount l We will then arrange to make ship ment in the manner most convenient | to yOu.'

MOUNTAIN ASH MEN
 ALL GOOD SINGERS
Center Church Fellowship Club BrnSs Excellent Talent
 to City.

At the Center Congregational church last evening, an excellent concert was given by the Mountain Ash Welsh Male choir under the auspices of the Center church Fellowship club.
 The singers come from Wales, tho title country which has produced d great many world renowned artists and tho members of this orGanlHa- - ton, hy their work last night, upheld the reputation of their native land. , They presented d pleasing And varied program consisting ol numbers for the choir, intCrSpVr$"u Wiln dut'9' solos and d recitation.
 Tho ensemble work was on tho whole most excellent, the hest work being done in the first number Peace to the Soul of the Heroes and ins the encore, d martial song which followed. Tho "ltallan Salad and 'T'yror' by the choir was en- thuiasticallv received by the audience, but in these numbers beauty of tone was often sacrificed for effects. By ,aounst inc choir sang "Old Black Joe" aud while it was tondcrly sung the arrangement of the familiar melody was not the best. The simple
  factory.
 The individual work was greatly . enjoyed by the audience especially that of J. Williams, basso, who sang the familiar "I Fear No Foc' and fol- lowed with an encore, As l passed By Your Window" a beautiful song in Old English style and very artis- tically rendered. MT. Williams would have justified in giving a second en- core, so great was the applause.
 A very pleasing diversion of the program was a recitation by NIT Davies, "The Cataract" i'll which he displayed a fine knowledge of the art of clocution and a fawlesS memory The audience insisted on hearing him again and he responded with "Peo' pie Will Talk" rather humorous selection containing d great deal o1 zeal truth as well as poetry.

year, in spite of adverse irrlga-

it "grows up" before we realize

urges them to read every publ
