To Offer Fine Program
Announcement that the concert
scheduled for last Sunday, but postpoh-
ed on account of the illness of Rev.
Peterson, would be held this coming
Sunday, June 8, came as a surprise to
everyone, including the committee in
charge. A full program Of concerts
for the remainder of the month made
It imperative that the concert be held
his Sunday, or not at all.
The society, composed of thirty men,
is not made up of professional singers,
The members represent various walks
of life, being business, professional and
laboring men, bound together by the
common tie, a sincere love Of music.
Locally we are represented by our be-
loved G. Aug. Peterson, and no COM
ment concerning his musical ability
is necessary to those familiar with the
young peoples chorus on the West
Side.
Rev. Peterson will not only sing in
the chorus, but will give short talks,
explaining the different numbers on
the program.
The program, printed below, gives
one but vague idea of the treat In
store for us. It is composed of Nor
wegian, Swedish and English songs,
both secular and sacred, and is in
every way eminently suitable for any
Gay, place or occasion. All numbers
have stood the test Of time, and are
modern in the sense that they are as
popular with the audiences of today as
of yesteryear.
The price of admission to be charged
is so small that it is ridiculous, In view
of the high order of the program. Like
all else in this material world the &C.
tual expenses of the singers must be
paid, although they are not charging
cent for their services. This is the
purpose Of tire charge for admission.
If anything remains after paying. for
the transportation and entertainment
of our visitors, the balance will be used
for some equipment for the new high
school.
1t is hoped that record crowd will
greet the Norwegian MAZE Chorus at
the Island Club next Sunday after
noon at three o'clock,wh they rem
der a program that will go down in the
annals of the Island history as the
outstanding musical event in many
years. These men will give their best
and the least we can do is to greet
with packed house, despite the short
notice, showing them that we appre-
ciate the courtesy of their coming.
