Miss Welch took the leading part in a play entitled "Commencement at Colton," given under the auspices of' Miss Clara" E. Coe's School of Ora- tory, on June 6th. The entire com- pany did most excellent work, the! play being given with a power nd Lnish seldom witnessed in amateur per- formances, and the work of Miss Welch received most warm and enthusiastic praise from the dramatic erities, [ler acting possessed that quality so often lacking in young actors, naturalness and poise. So cleverly, did she merge her own personality into that of the heroine that it became a living apd very lovable character which the audi- ence was sorry to part with at the «nl of the play. Her gracefulness in the lighter scenes and the depth of intense feeling in the more serious portions, gaye to her work the true professional ring of artistic ability deserving of the appreciation and praise which the au- dience gave her unstintingly. On June A2th, Miss Welch will give, under the auspices of Miss Coe, a dra matic recital which will introduce her to the public as a teacher and dirce tor of dramatic art, which work she 180 Princess St. Highest Quality Our Aim COOK'S FRIEND "The Baking Powder With A Pedigree" §} made from pure grape cream of tartar, contains no alum or other deleterious ingredients.
