ENIIIYABLE AND succissrui coiiiii

A most enjoyable and successful wncert was presented last evening in the Central Christian Sunday School Hall before a capacity audi-

ence. Each number on the

' programme was of a high order and

was executed with splendid effect.

Mrs. V. L. Dingweil, organist and choir director of the church, was heard in two fine piano solos from Chopin. She interpreted the soul of the Polish music master in an in- imitable manner. Mrs. Dlngwell was the accompanist of all vocal selec- tions. Miss Alice Coffin cleughtcd the audience with two vocal num- bers. This was followed by a vocal trio, three little girls, Hazel Bailin- gall. Catherine Wright and June MacPhcrsou. the latter accompany- ing on the auto harp.

Mrs. Arthur Henry convulsed the audience with laughter in one of her comic Irish impersonations.

Two piano-accordian numbers were pleasingly rendered by Mr.. Montague Warren, who proved him- self a master of his instrument. A vocal solo by Mr. V. L. Dingwell was equally appreciated. Miss Fran- ces Coflin of Montague, graduate in eiocutlon of Mount Allison Uni- versity, made a. very .valuable con- tribution to the programme in two readings, andresponded to a hearty encore. ‘

The concluding feature of the pro- gramme was a one-act comedy, "The Minister Comes to Tea.” It por- trayed an afternoon gathering of an old time ladies’ aid meeting. A mys- tifying plot, kept the interest high. while the gossip and witty cross- fire kept thc audience tittering. The play was climaxed by the one thought to ba the minister's wife. while the supposed daughter was discovered to be a pet dog. Those taking part in the play were: Mrs. Milton Carter, Mrs. Milton Stewart, Mrs. Frank Stewart, Mrs. Holden McLure, Mrs. Guthrie Ballingall, Mrs. Cyril MacGregor, Mrs. Anna Bell Houston, Mrs. Fenton McLure, Mrs. H. W. Platts, Miss Nita Mac- Neill. The play was ably directed by Mrs. W. L. Outhouse. The con- cert was under the auspices of thc Ladies‘ Aid. '
