 Miss Florence c. Bullard will speak at the Business Mems club, next Wednesday evening at 7.3O o'clock Miss Bullard comes under the man. agement of the American Red Cross, and will bring to us much that is of real interest. The Red Cross was chiefly known during the war be- cause it stressed certain features of it's work during that period, but it's aim is always the same-to. render service to the army and navy and to communities as they may nave need Miss Bullard went to France in 1916 and served with the French army, later she was transferred to the Amer ican forces The public is invited to hear this very interesting speaker.
 A large and remarkably well pleas ed audience heard the Renwick-San- roma recital at the auditorium of the Congregational church Friday even ing. MT. Renwick's splendid baritone voice has been enjoyed here before and in his varied selections all were impressed with the fact that he knows we'll how to use it. Master Sanroma, lad of sixteen, proved himself more than was expected. His wonderful technique and mastery of the key board would have done credit to one with many more years of study. His passion for his chosen work, with all that is sure to follow in the way of a maturer mind for interpretation should make him one of the futures great pianists. MT. Renwick receiv ed sufficient encouragement by the patronage, which enabled him to slightly more than meet expenses, to perhaps bring other musicians, with whom he was in touch in Boston, to Stafford. Music lovers hope that this may be done.
