Moore has classified tramps into

Music Teachers
Announce Organ Recital

The third organ recital of the
seasons series will be given next
Sunday afternoon at $3.50 in the
Christian church. Frank Church
i'll, local organist, will give the
organ numbers and will be assist
ed entirely by Salem musicians.
Miss Ada Miller will sing and
Franklin Launer will be heard
in piano selections. A feature will
be a trio including Mr.. Churchill
at the organ, Miss Dorothy Pearce
at the piano, and MISS Marian
Emmons, on the violin.
Although no charge is made for
the organ recitals, silver offer
ing is taken to defray expenses.
While considerable interest
has been displayed in the recitals
and attendances have been good,
not sufficient funds have been se-
cured to cover expenses Of the
productions. 1t is the hope of Sa-
lem district, State Music Teach
ers' association, which is sponsor
ing the series, that next Sunday
a record may be made.
