different colleges for deep baritone
singer. There were eight candidates, in
Guiding two from Harvard university,
who appeared for a tryout for the posi-
ton to sing in the morning and eve
ming services of the church. The decis-
ion was left in charge of committee
and Mr.. Geake was the chosen candi-
date for the position, which he accept
ed and sang there several weeks. Later
Mr.. Geake was made member of the
Philharmonic Choral club of the New
England Conservatory of Music. The
instructor of the club, after hearing a
solo by Mr. Geake at the club, invited
him to sing a solo at the Peoples Tenn
pie Methodist church, at which church
the club instructor has a very fine
choir, Of which he is director. Mr..
Geake responded and later was offered
a position at that church, which he ac-
cepted and he now sings at both serv-
ices of the church. He also had try
out to enter a dramatic club, of which
he is now a member, and he is soon to
take journalist part in a play.
