that displayed the sweetness of her
voice rather than artistic ability.
The young artist won instant ia
vor with her audience by her char
ming simplicity and pleasing per-

superbly done with an ease that
older and more experienced artists
find difficult. Seattle has In Miss
Merry Newton a young song artist

Miss Tessie Miller, pianist, was
splendid as an accompanist. Miss
Justitia Davis was heard in a group
of readings that stamped her as a
coming elocutionist. Howard Biggs
pianist. added greatly to the pro-
gram by his superb rendition of
several difficult selections. In ev-
cry way the program marking Miss

high standard.
