' lum, Last Evening

 

 

 

Thenew City \Hall. in South lNor-

friends of the pupils of Mrs. Amy
Wood Sims. the Occasion being the
annual song recital.

The hall is a most attractive one
and, with decorations of palms and
roses, by Florist dlantord, made a
very artistic setting for the affair.
Ushers for the evening were William
W. Lester. Philip N. Knapp. Charles

ed by Earle Brooks iHosliins. violinist.
and Master Carlton L’llominodieii.

sweet voice, and Mice Walsh sang it
well. 3

The next numbers were ‘Miodita-
tion," from “Thais." by Masseuet, and
“Gavotte,” by. Bobbi, played by Earle
Hosklns. Mr. Hoskins‘ playing is
well known. He produces an excel-
lent tone. displays much temperament.
and" was surely at ills best last even-
ing.

Miss Marie McMahon made he: lirst
appearance in recital and sang "My
'Laddie," by 'l‘llayer. a Scotch love
song,*with much feeling and expres-
sion. and a true Scotch accent.

Miss Bessie Field also made her
first recital appearance, and has a
beautiful rich contralt'o voice, which
will surely place her in the em ranks
of singers. She sang illirlc COMB!" "A
Damask Rose.” with much beauty or
tone.

Miss Mai Dorsey sang “Were I a
later:l by Hawtey, and her voice‘ and
style have gained much since the last
recital. She sang with excellent tone
and in most artistic style.

Mendelssolin’s duet for sopranoa
mezzo soprano. “I Waited tor the
Lord." was then sung by the Misses
Carrie and Annie Miller. Duets by the
Misses Millenare always in furor. and
they song this dilllcuit number inI
such a manner as to win generous ap-
plause from the audience. Tholrvoices
blend perfectly. They also have made
much progress since the last recital.
