duality in their renditions. Miss Ves-
tal and Mist* Altmau have a very simi-
imt hi.vle anil they played with dash and
vivacity, displaying liberal 'tempera-

Mias Parker had a more difficult coin-
pillion, and one wliolly different from
other numbers on the program, hut she
gave it with precision and unusual in-
terpretation for so young a musician,
and her playing was prophetic of large
things for the future.
Frleuds of the three pianists, were
charmed w|th their renditions, which
Lwere all particularly pleasing Manse;

Miss Parrlsh found her climax in the

events in Hh* history of First Baptist
Church ami rred Sunday evening, when
the (hair of that congregation, under
the direction of Mr. George Case, ren-
dered the cantata, "Song of Thgnksgivt
For weeks the director ami members
of the choir have been in rehearsal of
the music, and their tireless study was
evident; in eveiy note of the runditioii;
Tlit cantata is a high classic, the text
written by Shaisott Wensley, and the

der, The theme ami score both rank
high in music, and the eomhination is
^•ncrally considered faultless by musl*

The Srtnday evening program was giv-
en # in a manner highly creditable, and
was a (blight to the large assemblage
who heard It. The ensemble work of
the choruses Was markedly well done,
bringing (Hit the happiest, jnogt artistic
effects. Daiitoue. tenor and soprano
solos wore given in splendid voice, and
each oue did the assigned parts too well
and distinctively to p^nnlt c omparisons,
and Mr. Case has uev. r at any time sur-
p;iK;iiI his mastery of tlie .orgau, in Ids
interpretative accompaniments of Sun-

The spa(ious auditorium was filled
with nibat appreciative bearers, jium
