The equal of any former concert and an ail-round success musicanly and in a literany sense is the verdict of the peopie on the pnogram of glees, chonuses, quantets and organ solos pnesented in tbe Metbodist Church on Wednesday evening, Matcb Sth by the choir of that church under the direction of Mn. T. W. Stanley, the iiew Choir Dinecton and Onganist, as- sisted by Miss Jessie Tuite, Instruct- ness la Elocution and Expression in Albert College, Belleville, and Miss Dorothy Stanley, soloiat la West- minster Presbyterian Chu.rch, Toron- to. The attendance wau lange and near- ly every nurnber was entbusiastically applauded. Indeed, thene were so many recalla that the alneady com- prehensive program of sixteen num- bers was extended to nearly double that number and even thea Misses Tuite and Stanley could not meet the demand towards the end, se eager was the audience for more selections. Not for many years bas a public neaden been accorded sucb a truly hearty receptien as Miss Tuite te- celved bere and her vanled repertoire was indicative cf the good judgment of the reciter. Miss Tuite bas won for berself a reputation that will guarantee a large audience whenever she returas te Bowmanville. Miss Donotby Stanley cf Toronto, daughten cf the Choir Director, la this bier first public appearance in Bowmaaville could bardly have de- sined a more genuine and thoroly cordial 'welcome; and, after hearing býer well-trained voice la the num- bers on the program and the encores demanded and se generously given, Miss Stanley is sure of a sincere greeting whenever ulie can f aven Bowmanville witb ber presence and more pleasure la bearing ber at- tractive voice, se well unden con- trol. The choir ýnumbers were "Com- rades Song of Hope", (Adam), "Hear my Frayer", (Mendelssohn), "Bal Smiling Mena", (Speffoth), "Baby- lon's Wave", (Gounod). The choir showed that tbey bad been carefully traiaed and sangaIl the selectiens very well, indeed, The fhadi ng was excellent as was the blnc, One wonders wbat would tb.ey do wene the leader in front, as cf course be sbeuld be. As it is the attack was veny good. Mrs, W. J. Morrison sang the solo in "Bear My Frayer"I veny well giviag a very sympathetic renditien cf avery difficuit solo. The enunciation of the choir was certain- ly fine., The mixed quartet "Ancbered" (Watson), was sung by Miss Eliza- beth Painton, Mrs. B. M. Foster, Messrs. W. B. Tapson and W. B. Pollard, and their voices blended very nicely together. Fer an encore they gave that delightful old Folk Song "Oft la the Stilly Night". The maIe quartet Messrs.' Tapson, Dr. Slemon, T. S. Bolgate and Pollard sang well the "Belîs cf Shandon"l and for an encore "The Boys cf the Old Brigade", and the audience would have liked still another selection. Two organ numbers "An Alpine, Pbantasy and Storm", (Flage), and "The Coronation Match" (Meyer- beer) by Mr. T. W. Stanley, Organ.. ist, made up the local part of the prog ram. As intimated above the soloist cf the eveaing was Miss Dorothy Stan-i ley, Toronto Ber numbens were cf' a vanied chanacter from the vîvaclous "Little Damezel" cf, Nevello to the sud "Princess" cf Greig. Ber splen- did nendition cf "Nympbs and Fawns" (Bemberg) sbewed what weadenful confrol cf lber brenthing she has, and the flexible quality of ber voice. Pos- sibly bier best number, musicians would dlaim was the dramatie piece "The Pincess", Greig. One could pictune the shepherd fan away play- iag bis pipes and the Princess listen- ing te the music afar. Miss Stanley'a last number "When I was Seventeen" (Kramen) was alse delightfully ren- dered. For encores she gave, "A1 Fairy went a Marketing", "The Lilac1 Tree" and "Ceming Tbrough thet Bye"y. Miss Tuite's recital of MacLarea's "Laddie" brougbt tears to many eyes, so veny pathetic and heart-toucbingt was it. "Snatcbes cf conversation overbeard at a movie show" gave full range te bier pewers cf imitation of the f olk wbo are found there. "A boy's essay on Jack-knives",,and "Eat more porridge" were wcli given. Ber TOWNSHIP S. S. WORKERS. HIGH SCHOOL BOARD Splendid Convention at Maple Grove ENTERTAINS STUDENTS on Tuesday.
