The main auditorium of the First
Methodist church was we'll filled with
an appreciative audience of music
lovers last evening, who gathered to
hear the celebrated musician. DR..
Minor G. Baldwin, render q very bril-
liant program on the pipe organ. DR..
Baldwin is one Of the noted pianists

night were very appreciatively re

additional numbers, so much were his
renditions enjoyed. The classical
numbers were rendered with touch
and technique only possessed by the
most finished musicians and these
were enjoyed to the highest degree
but the numbers which pleased all
the most were such old familiar songs
as Nearer, My God, to Thee" and
"Silver Threads Among the Cold"
which took on a new meaning under
the wonderful touch and expression Of
this master. The program from first
to last was musical treat, and Lake
lands winter visitors, good many OF
whom were present, much enjoyed tho
occasion.
Miss Elizabeth Pritchett, whose
lovely voice is always heard with
pleasure. gave vocal number. which
was beautifully rendered and highly
