Monday night a delightful program was given by the Matinee Musicale in its rooms in the Brace block. The event was an open meeting which was taken advantage of by the friends of the talent ed club. It was a difficult task to do exact justice in commenting upon the execution of the various numbers on the well-planned tonal menu, as the fullest capac'.ty of thoso appearing was modi fied to the listeners by reason of the un favorable construction of the hall. Dur ing the firet numbers this is noticeable but it wears away somewhat and one becomes adjusted and acclimated so that the fault, and it is a serious one, is less prominent. Soul like above the surrounding num bers stood the work of Mrs. Will Owen Jones in her two numbers. If the "Bar carolle" was excellent the following "Arietta di Balletto" was exquisite wherein the premier danseuse could be easily followed as the tiptoed all airy and fairy-like through the ballet. Miss Lucy Ilaywood with Mrs. E. P. Brown, rendered Saint Saens' "Danse Macabie"' in a mo6t approved style which waB charming. Mrs. Raymond did conscien tious work at the piano in support of several others, a trjing position in which Mrs. Raymond always tills well. A ong with a deep touch of humanity in it was the "Angelus" presented by Miss Oak ley and Mrs. Campbell. Miss Oakley has made a marked improvement in her voice during herJast year's study. When in solo the smaJIneES of the hall intefered with Miss Oakley's well turned expression. Miss Reynolds nod Mrs. Mark Woods were subject to the same limitations which was much regretted. Beethoven's "Allegro Moderato" did not meet the heartiest applause, probably the motif of the thing is somewhat elus ive and Bard to connect readily. The writer regretB that but a part of the firet duet was heard, the "Finale" by Miss Hollowbush and Miss Givens. The program presented was: Piano Duet Birthday Music.
