4 GOOD TREAT

IS. hall Sunday evening and un.
der auspices of the d. B. S
lodge. starring Fred Bliss, Dan
ish tenor and assisted by Elmer
Asker and Paul Norager Of Min
neapolis, the latter as piano &C
companist and soloist was rare
treat.
For several years Mr.. Bliss has
been tenor soloist with the Nc.
Intyre & Heath American Opera
Company and is now enjoying a
sort of rest from strenuous work
during which time he is visiting
and singing in many Danish com.
munities of the country.
He will accompany the Ellberg
Singing Society Of Racine, Wis,
as soloist on a tour to Denmark
this winter.
The first number on Sunday
evenings program was Cavalry
March, piano solo, played by
Mr.. Norager, in which the. soloist
displayed good technical qualities
and masterful touch.
Mr.. Bliss sang about dozen
songs, including English and DAN
ish and also one Swedish song.
He has an excellent tenor voice,
a wide range and after hearing
his first number 1t was apparent
that he is an artist and has made
a life study of his work. AS
before mentioned it was a rare
treat to have an artist of his
ability visit this community and
should he come again he will
most likely be greeted with a
packed house.
Among the numbers Mr.. Bliss
sang which were the most appre-
ciated were perhaps "Saterjen-
tens Sondag". by Ole Bull; The
Little Grey Home in the West;
selection from the opera Faust;
and the yoddling song, Sleep
Baby. Sleep Close to My Breast
Elmer Asker of Minneapolis
also appeared ON the program
with several songs. most of
which were on the comical line
and were thoroughly enjoyed by
the large audience. The two
which received the most hearty
applause were: Per og Maren
and "Jeg havde mig en- kRrest.'
Mr.. Asker is very good anna
teur comedian, taking part in
most Of the Danish plays being
staged in Minneapolis. He has
pleasing appearance and feels
at home on the stage. explaining
each song, giving its title, etc,
before singing. which was appre-
