E PLANNED AT CHURCH
 FRIDAY EVENING
PIANO RECITAL, READING AND GLEE CLUB; FOR J. L. H. MU-
 SIC DEPARTMENT

l Friday evening, November IS, at | the Community church, the people of Seward will be privileged to hear Mrs. Rosabelle Groth, pianist and Mrs Myrtle Canterbury Hatten, reader, in recital. They will be assisted by thel Jesse Lee Home Girls Glee Club, who will give four numbers of the program The hour for beginning the program will be eight sharp.
 Mrs Groth, who has on other occa- sions pleased audiences in Seward, is a graduate in music of Taylor Univer- sity, Upland, Indiana. Since that time she has taught piano and voice and public school music. She has mast cry of the technique of piano and in- terprets faultlessly It will be a real treat to hear her.
 Mrs. Hatten, graduated from the School of Expression of Nc KendreeI College, Lebanon, Illinois and since then has taught private classes as well as giving many recitals, She was the reader for the Amphion Quartet of Spokane, who doing the war worked for the Red Cross raising many dol lars for that great organization. ,.|
 The Hyder Herald reported the last recital given by Mrs. Hatten as follows; "All who witnessed the per formance are unanimous in praise of the very excellent program and es- pecially of the unusual dramatic and elocutionary ability of Mrs. Hatten who contributed a major portion of the program. She displayed a remarkable versitality in the rendition of wide range of verse and prose selections and was more than merely clever in her child impersonations. Her work was of the highest order throughout and won for her an abundance of ap- plause."
 The Girls Glee Club is making it's first appearance as such although these girls are we'll known because of their work in the J. l.. choir Mrs. Groth directs the GIee Club and her splendid musical ability has brought about fine improvement. Their sing ing is going to be a treat.
 There will be no admission charged, but an offering will be taken, the funds raised thus to be used to buy music for the Jesse Lee Home music department. It is hoped that every seat in the church will be occupied.
 The program will appear in later issue of The Gateway. Watch for it.
