worse than useless to try to tempt the

STUDENTS GIVE
FINE RECITAL
Alma May Well Look With
Pride TO Department of
Music.

Fourteen students Of the college
department of music appeared in a re-
cital given i'm the college chapel on
Wednesday evening. The interest
which the people fthe city take in
these affairs was evidenced by the
large number of townspeople who
were present The interest of the
college itself had been heightened by
Professor Hosmer's invitation in
morning chapel and evening found a
large audience awaiting the concert.
The program given was as follows:
Murmuring Zephyrs (Jensen)-
Melba Spinney
Canzonetta (SchutD -Pers)is Rob
inson.
Creole Love Song" (Smith)-
Charlotte Halves.
Witches Dance (McDowelD -
Helen Huff
My Redeemer and My Lord"
(Buck)-Gerturde Benedict
Nocturne (Paderewski)-Ma Margaret
Moore.
To Spring (Grieg Ethel Vaughan
Recit. Comfort Ye." Air. Every
Valley" from Elijah" by Hadyn)-
William Amos.
Impromptu (Reinholdl - Helen
Barnes.
Marche Grotesque Csinding)-Ro-
sella Smalldon.
What the Chimney Sang" Girls
wold)-Marion Forester.
Walt (WieniawskD - Florence
Purdy
AN Open Secret" (Woodman)-
Nernie Green.
Waltz CMoskowskD -Oneita Stevens.
From number TO number there was
wide variety. The program ranged
from the solid tone work Of Pade-
rewski's "Nocturne" to the dainty
technique Of Mcdowell. which Helen
Huff so admirably brought out; from
Grieg's Spring Song" and Sinding's
"Marche Grotesque" to the heavy
technique of Wieniauski. accom-
plished by Florence Purdy Then the
final elimination came in the combi-
nation Of both tone and technique in
the Walt" by Moskowski, for Miss
Oneita Stevens made this a real ar
lists number.
Such program shows not only the
ability Of the students who gave il.
but points out also the wonderful
versatility Of Grace Duncan Roberts.
head Of the department Of piano. and
her ability TO recognize and cultivate
the individual genius Of each student.
In no lesser degree did the vocal
numbers give evidence of Professor
Hosmer's excellent training. Miss
HAYES in THE Creole Love Song -
and Miss Forester in "What the
Chimney Sang" by these two selec-
tons carried the appeal and charm of
the folk-song. In contrast was the
lovely prayer sung so sweetly by Ger
trude Benedict and the sacred num-
Der from Elijah" by Mr.. Amos. The
birds lifted with Miss Green as she
sang of the open Secret" of the
woods.
Alma may well look with Pride
toward her department of music, and
may well be proud that she has stu.
dents Of such high musical ability.
