 PLEASING RECITAL
Metropolitan Opera Star Aided by
 Local Artists

At tho grand concert for the bene- lit of tho Swedish Lutheran church building fund, held at Fox's theater yesterday afternoon, Mme Marie Sundelius the soprano Metropolitan Opera star. scored a decided success
 Madam Sundelius possesses a remark ably sweet voice and the large audi cnce that assem bled to hear her was generous in it's praise, the committee on arrangements taking considera ble pride in her artistic prominence
 At the opening of the concert Madam Sundelus sang Puccini's aria from Butterfly, "Cn Bel Di." The Arpi SeXtet then gave two selections which pleased immensely. Following these Madam Sundelius sang four Swedish songs ''Aftonstamning," by Korlins: "Nallpigelat," by Buckman; "Alor Britta," by Berger, and "Aspokerspolske," also by Peter son. Berger. At the close of these numbers the opera singer was pre- sented with a beautiful bouquet of roses in appreciation of her efforts.
 A feature of the program was Her bert F.. Anderson's violin solos which were declared to be admira ble in every respect. Mir. Anderson rendered Tschaikowski's "Andante Cantabile" and ~"Serenade dis. TsiSane.'' by Val dez. Responding to encores Mir. An derson played The Rosary it's allur- ing appeal finding response in the audiences enthusiasm.
 -'Oh. Love But Day" composed by Mrs. Beach: "La Fargc's Song of the Open. "and Fairy Pipers" by Brewer were next sun: by Madam Sundelius. The latter was especially noteworthy.
 \ few words of merited praise are due Fillmore Ohman, who supplied admirable piano paniments, particularly his selection, so beauti fully played and so skillfully effected as to distinguish him as an artist among the instrumentalists
 The closing number on the program was d rendition by Madam SundeliuS of Bach-Gounod's ".Ave Maria" with violin obligato by AIr. Anderson, ac- companied by Fillmore Ohman. The audience then arc Sc and sang Amer ica."
 Al the conclusion of the entertain ment Rev. pr. S. c. Ohman paid a glowing tribute to Mme. Sundelius, also that she had voluntarily offered her services gratis after which a rising vote of thanks was given her.
 The affair nettcd approximately 1000. which will be paid towards the church debt. The coming month of April will d renewed drive to clear the church of all debt, when the congregation will celebrate the 23th anniversary of the continued service of it's pastor.
