Punkin Holler" The children were
costumcd to represent the children in
some backwoods district school, Tho
business of the time was TO practice
the program preparatory for Christ
mas guests. Many amusing incidents
took place. The children took their
parts well and the audience thoroughly
enjoyed the farce. Following this part
of the program was something quite
different from tho usual program. Miss
Peterson, music supervisor gave n
demonstration program of the use Of
the Victrola in appreciation of music
in the schools. She had children in
her class from the first, second, third
and eighth grades She showed the
purpose OF the work of each grade and

on How to Make the Philharmonic

seems to he the only thing confront
ing the club mt this time. There ~
no lack OF interest on the part OF the
members and there is much talent IN
the club
But there was a wave Of disappoint-
ment manifested at the mention of the
Eddy Brown concert. The Philharmo-
mic club members feel that they do
not receive the backing and support
that Ardmore should give them.
A member said 1.-The club does not
bring these great artists to Ardmorc
to interest and amuse the gray haired
or the grown ups. altogether Tney
are looking to the interest of the boys
and girls as WE'LL" one member de-
clared. and asked, "what shall we
do with the talent of Ardmore? Shall
we send some of the boys and girls
TO Oklahoma City, Dallas, and Fort
Worth to hear these finished pro-
ducts while the greater portion OF
the Ardmore talent goes to waste
through lack of means to 20 to the
larger cities? Or shall WE bring these
great artists to our own fair city and
fill the very air with the best Of mu-
sic, that our young people may catch
the inspiration and be able to see
the fruits of their labors in daily prac-
tice and work?'

international fame. appeared in this
city recently under the auspices Of

ed with one of the smallest audien-
ces ever seated in Convention Hall.
