the violin solo work for the organiza-
tion. Miss Violet Falk the contral-
to s6leist with the orchestra is one
Of the popular young artists of the
Middle West who is fast making a
name for herself in concert work.
She has most unusual voice, rich
and sweet with the emotional quality
predominating. For the cello work
Mr.. Liearanee has chosen Miss Vivi-
an Brewster, an excellent techniclan
who produces beautiful tone. She
has had extensive experience in high
grade orchestra work. There are
eight artists in all and each member
is an artist Of unusual talent. The
personnel or the organization is as
follows: Mr.. Harry Anderson, diree-
tor, Miss Violet Falk, .contralto solo
ist, Miss Mabel Klause, pianist, Miss
Vivian Brewster, cellist, Mr.. Lester
Summers, first violin, Miss Maybeth

ley Sandberg,. Viola-violin.
The Alkahest Lyceum system of
Atlanta is presenting this organiza-
tiea in the South and are meeting
with great success and praise every
where. Today the American public
is "a most discerning musical critic.
They want the best whether it is
classics or. popular and the Lieur-
ance's Symphonic orchestra give both.

tiplicity of enthusiastic comments and
such has come to the Lieurance SYM
phonie orchestra wherever they have
