St-ldorc have tin lovers of music en joyed so rich a treat as was afforded them by the concert at the college on Friday night and our town might well be proud of such a display of her local talent- From the oprn-ng number, a duet by Miss Allston and Dr. Aiken, lo the very last, the large and appreciative audience was treated to music of a high order. Very much of *Vio otiia- mont r\f fVio f?fpnuicc WAS flnp to the exquisite performances, both vocal and instrumental, contributed by the charming visitors, Misses Pixley and Parmater, (whom we are glad 10 say will henceforth be numbered among the dwellers in ?ld Fairfield). Their music was of raic excellence, and completely captivated the audience. Miss Alston's sweet voice has more than once charmed trie lovers of song, and on this occasion she fully sustained her former repu tation. Dr. Aiken's unusually sweet and sympathetic tenor blended beautifully with Miss Allston's soprana in the duct, "O! That wc Two Were Maying." Nothing could have been sweeter than the biid-like voice of Miss Susie Ketchin, and her song, The Angel's Serenade?with a violin obligato?by Miss Allstor, was one of j the strong features of the evening. I The unique and skillful performance of Messrs. Beaty and Gladden was j thoroughly enjojed and the reciiati ?n j . ... ? . ~ .i i by Miss if aiiDie ureignt, ana ir.e reading ot a selection f om Riley by Miss Allston, delighted the audience and were thoroughly well done. Mrs. iTJenuikeii''i brilliancy of execution was well di-played in the difficult composition of Wallace which she rendered so beautifuliv. It is hoped that it will not be long before we have another such musical treat. DTTT>TT?D1P17 "D A TTT7"D"N7C A complete line on hand at all times. Write us for Patterns.
