MUSICAL MENTION

Community activities can now count
} another choral organization as the
result of the efforts Of the War Camp
Community Service in the Polymnia
Choral Society, chorus of one
hundred women, which has met for
some months Monday evenings at the
Wilson Normal School. Otto Torney
Simon is the conductor. with Miss
Edith 3. Athey as accompanist and
Mrs. Joseph Dunn as secretary, and it
is expected that the organization will
give it's first concert some time in
March. The chorus represents only
one section of the musical work of
the W. c. c. S, and is collaborating
septed recently with such eclat The
Pirates of Penzance." The principles
followed in rehearssls in this course
are intended to further the ideals of
community singing and to prepare
the organization for the study of the
higher forms OF musical expression.
No more voices will be received from
now until after the first concert, but
applications may be registered for
membership after that date. There
are no dues. In addition to the
Polymnia Choral Society, double
octet of male voices has been formed
to be known as the Apollo Glee Club.
