"Egbert," said one of the ballroom Boys
to the other. Il want to ask you very per-
sonal question: If 1 take a girl out for the
evening and show her a good time at the
movies and on the way home buy her an ice
cream soda, do you think 1 should kiss her
when I tell her good-bye?"
Egbert gave the proposition intensive
study
mo, Clarence he said at length, don't
you kiss her. You've done quite enough for
her."

DR.. Lundquist has a very splendid
choral club of college students who
are learning to sing our great ora
torios with understanding and ap-
probation. They gave the "Crea

quist is doing great work in train
ing these college students in the
highest form Of choral music, the

The club was ably assisted by the
following soloists. Mrs. Agnes Rast

showed themselves much at home

Mr.. Shoemaker made his first ap-

was in excellent voice. His diction
vas at all times clear and forceful.
His musical appreciation of the text,
very marked and his round, resonant
quality of voice carried over to his
audience each recitative and solo

Enjoyable Pupils Recital.
TCONTRIBUTED.1

One of the most enjoyable pupils
precitals that the writer has ever
heard took place last evening al
the Christian church, by the piano
students Of Miss Ruth Gingles. The
program was opened by two num-
bers from Schumann and the Rustl
ing of Spring by Sinding, played by
Mable Sorenson.. These numbers
we're given with usual interpretatiye
ability and smooth execution. Little
Florence Marks in the Black Smith
by Mokrejs brought out the anvil
very effectively and played with per-
feet rhythm. The Dance of the
Mariolettes was played equally well
Lorene Andrist next played Riding
Old Dobbin, humorous piece by
Colman in which one easily could
imagine the little boy with bobbine
curls, riding old Dobbin.
Helen Swenson showed great
deal of talent as did Virginia Sper-
Itch, Mary Bates and Helen Wieden
heft. Their numbers were played
with much musical understanding
and good, clean technic. Leors
Schwieder played. about Foreign
the melody Of which was played with
let by Behr was just as effectually
played.
Much comment was made on
Louise Just's playing. To the Ris-
ing Sun by Torjusson, which was
given with fine shading and breadth
Of tone. She also played Massenet's
Aragonaise in a splendid manner.
Nollet's Elegy in C Sharp Minor
and Godard'S Second Mazurka by
Pearl Nelson were we'll given Next
followed three pupils of extra or
binary gifts, all of whom can bear
watching in the future. The first of
these. Harry Loucks, a gifted boy of
fourteen years. was very much at
nome in his numbers, one of which
was his own composition. The ap-
plause which followed the rendering
of this number was most compliment
tary.
Ruth Hughes surprised the audi
ence with her amazing interpreta-
tions of the Valse by Liebling. This
tie Down Francis by Ravinia and
Minuet by Paderewski. She has the
temperament Of mature artist.
What already has been said applies
to Herbert Schiller Of Nicollet, MINI.
also. He closed the program. .. -.
Miss Gingles is deserving of praise
for the splendid training ~-of. these
young players. In these days when
sloyenly playing and amateurish per-
formances of any Kind are no longer
to be tolerated certainly much is
demanded Of a teacher. The writer
was impressed with the great. ease
and poise with which every number
was rendered.

Teachers College Glass Day Exer-
ciseS,

Glass Day exercises of the Teach
ers' college took place at the Presby-
terrain church at nine o'clock this
morning. The church was beauti-
fully decorated with huge masses of
blue flags. The first number on the
program was 1.-The Melodie," by
Hueter by the College orchestra. fol
lowed by a song by the school,
"Moonlit Meadows" by Czibulka.
Ralph Coggeshall, the president of
the senior class, delivered the prin-
cipal address. His subject was THE
Status of the Teaching Profession"
He contrasted the professional atti-
tude and spirit with the commercial,
showing how these standards could
be raised through organization by
teachers for ethical purposes and
not for commercial. He also demon
strated why teachers themselves
should set their professional stan
dards and not leave this matter to
a disinterested party of politicians.
