I to the Armenian folk music. The library
| of the convent has large collection of
Armenian music in manuscript to which
Miss Kanders had free access. and it is
! from this collection Of quaint old songs
that she will contribute several num-
bers on this occasion. The abbot in
charge Of the convent was SO pleased
with her interest in the music that he
presented her with rare old ornament,
a cross of gold, studded with pearls and
| rubies, that had belonged to King Ha-
! toum. one of the rulers of ancient Ette-
sia. She will wear the cross at the con-
cert.
