BrOwnings Welcomed
Heartily

Eleanor Brownell and Richard
Browning sang to a most appreci-
ative audience during their recent
recital in Milford. Everyone was
enchanted with their delightful
renditions of famous songs.
Their program ranged from the
very classical to the light romantic
and humorous numbers. The last,
incidentally, were presented in a
very appealing fashion which
thoroughly delighted the audience.
Both their duets and individual So
los brought heavy applause from
the music lovers.
Miss Daphne Parnell, their ac-
companist, gave an enjoyable per-
Torrance at the piano. She is an
accomplish dartist, and we were
fortunate to have her play here.
After the concert Mr.. and Mrs.
Haswell Pierce entertained at home
in honor of the musicians. There,
many of us were able to meet and
talk with them personally. A per-
feet finish to lovely evening.
We sincerely hope Mr.. and Mrs.
Borwning and Miss Parnell will
return to us before too long. Then
again we may hear more of their
supertatiye voices and music.
