One of the most elaborate and at the same time entirely delightful To- lin recitals which local lovers of mu-
 sic have been privileged to hear in long time was given in the High

 the pupils of Herman J. Zahnleiter,
 member of the Hartford Philhar-
 monic orchestra. well known mu- sician and instructor.
 The work done by Mir. Zahnleiter's
 pupils clearly shows what can be ac- complished by careful training and
 hard, earnest study and practice on the part of the individual Some of the pupils who took part in the re- tie study on the difficult violin, yet they showed by their early mastery of it's intricacies that they are all ready proficient and will develop in
 to exceptionally good players. Others,
 who have studied and practiced longer proved that they have already
 reached the goal of their ambitions,
 should that ambition chance to be a
 finished player.
 The High school auditorium was tastefully decorated for the occasion and the large attendance indicated the interest which the public, which
 had .been invited. has in this form of higher entertainment. Miss liza. Harvey of the High school faculty
 was the accompanist, and to her is given no little credit for the success of the program
