PIpo Organ Recital well Attended.
The atendnnco at the pipe organ re
cital at the Presbyterian church Fri
day evening practically filled tho seat
ing capacity of tho auditorium and
tho" program which was rendered in a
really moritorious manner, highly
plenscd tho auditors. Miss McKay's
selections on tho organ wore varied,
giving her opportunity to well display
her skill as an organist and her abil
ity to put soul into tho inuslc. The
readings by Mrs. Redenbaugh display
ed her talent in the dramatic by a se
lection from "Ingomar" and In pathos
by "Littlo Boy Blue." Two trombone
solos by Arthur Trump Tannhauser'o
"Evening Star," and "If Roses Could
but Speak Lovo" by Rodomlnsky
wore exceptionally well rendered.
In the absence of Mrs. Knrr-Langston,
MIsh Croo Dlener snug "Perfect Day"
in a very acceptable mnnor. The
gram closed with a very pretty or
gan and piano selection by Miss Mc
Kay and Miss Clara Sorenson.
To this writer tho recital proved
very enjoyable, there was not a tire
some moment, and he would urge more
recitals and concerts by local talent,
knowing that a course of audi would
surpass tho musical numbers in the
regular entertainment courses with
which wo havo been provided for In
years past.
