PUBLIC SCHOOL MUSIC
CLUBS GIVE SPLENDID
PRO 0GRAM LAST NIGHT

With an audience which packed to
overilowing the big auditorium the
music clubs Of Ardmore public schools
prcst tnted one Of the most enjoyable
programs in the school year, last
night at the high school building
The music clubs comprise the Glee
clubs OF the four wards; High School
Girls Chorus Club; Girls Advanced
Choral Club; High School Mixed
Chorus, the High School Girls Glee
Club of which Miss Ella ]. Peter.
sor is supervisor, and the High School
Orchestra, Sol NJ. Lowenstein, di.
rector.
The entire program was thorough
ly enjoyed, the fresh voices Of the
young singers, blending harmoniously
in we'll selected songs while the or.
chcstra was in fine form and did its
part well in rounding out a splendid
evening of entertainment. Worthy
Of special mention was the Hunting
Scene" descriptive overture by
Bucalossi, by the orchestra which
lrought forth well deserved applause.
1t would ne too difficult 10 decide
which of the wards gave the best
numbers and the former contests,
which were always 4 big undertaking
for the best judges of music, would
have been quite out Of the question
AT last nights program. Each scored
decided points in good singing and
showed careful training and super.
vision. The piano accompaniments
were excellent and added much to the
enjoyment of the evening.
Miss Peterson and Mr.. Lowenstein
deserve special word Ct thanks from
Tie people Of the city in arranging
and presenting so splendid pro-
gram.

Campaign Starts
Cavalier Co. Has a Quota of
Fifty-Five Orphaned In
Stricken. Armenia

On Thursday of last week DR.. A.
L. Shute, Of Fargo, representative
from the state organization of the
Near East Relief, came to Langdon
for the purpose Of organizing Cava-
lser county, The committee placed in
c.!arge of the work planned to be
done in this county are:
Chairman-Mrs. C. E, Johnston
Vice Chairman-Mrs Jennie Moran
Y Secretary-Mr. Joe Snowfield
Treasurer-Mr. Bruce Pollock.
q Two million Armenians are alive
today because Of American generosi-
ty. More than one hundred Armen-
ian women, captured by Turks, can
not be released from the Turkish
harems until provision for their care
is made by the Near East Relief
A quarter of a million children are
dependant for life itself upon Am
erica, The United States by special
act of congress, has given the Near
East Relief the responsibility of TAX
ing care of these homeless hungry
orphans and unless America takes
her responsibility these children will
die of starvation. They must be
provided for for the next year, at
least until new crop can be har-
vested and some other means pros
vided for their care. The terrible
suffering through which these Ar
menian children have passed are all
too terrible for realization. They
have seen their fathers and mothers
murdered before their eyes. they nave
been turned out like cattle with scar
cely a rag to cover their nakedness
and are wanderers. Herbert Hoover
says: ''In the Near East is the most
desperate situation to be found any
where in the whole world. =
Cavalier county is asked to be re-
sponsible fo- the keeping of fifty
FIVE of these orphans alive for the
next year The sum of sixty dollars
a year will save human life.
