OctQber 8, 1926 William H. Barnes of Evanston, who has been organist at the First Baptist church of Wilmette since 1924, opened a series of organ programs to be given there, last Sunday afternoon. He was assisted by Mrs. Isabel Zehr, contralto soloi;t at the Second Presbyterian church, Evanston. During the recent summer Mr. Barnes presented recitals for several days at the SesquicenteQnial exposition in Philadelphia.
