The books have recently been placed on the library shelves. Education of a Princess—Marie, Grand Duchess of Russia ‘The granddaughter of Alexander IT and cousin of Nichols II tells her own story, and through it, Russia's. Brought up in walled palaces, her life is a succession of tragedies: the banishment of her father, the assass- ination of her uncle, the failure of her own marriage, war, revolt, and the dissolution of her family. Her educa- tion continues in America where she is at work. She is an authentic writer with the definite Russian qualities of bare simplicity, and a taste for spiritual values. The choice of sensory detail which enriches the story is remark- able. It is unique in combining an autobiography of rich experience with sincere and compelling o PI Benet A selection of Stephen Vincent Be- net’s ballads, sonnets and lyrical pomes from three earlier books. with MRS.

Father John A. H. Slag will be celebrant with Father Wacker acting as deacon and Father Holde- man as sub-deacon, according to an- nouncement by Father Slag Saturday. In addition to the first communi- cants, approximately 200 children of the parish will renew their baptismal vows and the parents of the children will receive Holy Communion at the same mass. Because the church will be filled with the children and those particu- larly interested in the first-commun- jon ceremonies, Father Slag asked that other members of the congrega- tion make arrangements to attend other masses if possible. These will be celebrated at 7, 8 and 10:36 c’clock ule’ of church services. The first communicants will assem~- ble at St. Mary’s school and will march to the church in procession, Father Slag said. On May 31, it was announced, about 25 children living in rural sections of Burleigh county will receive first Holy Communion, The sermon at all masses will be given by Rt. Rev. W. Bouter, Bishop of Nellore, India, who arrived in Bis- marck today. He is returning to his post in the Orient.

D. Pierce-Jones, rector. Litany also will be said on Wednesday at 3 p. m,, Rev. Pierce-Jones said. Rogation days fall on the Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday before Holy Thursday. Prayers are offered dur- ing these days for the success of crops. “The observance is one of time- honored custom that in former times involved much fasting and The piety of the custom consists in that it testifies to man’s dependence on God for his temporal happiness,’ Rev.

PORTER MADRIGAL CONCERT HERE OUTSTANDING U Singers Appeal to Finished Musician as Well as Aver- age Listener Surpassing all vocal productions here in recent years was the concert given by the Madrigal club of the University of North Dakota Friday evening at the city auditorium. Di- rected by Professor Hywel C. Row- land, head of the music department, the program appealed to both the trained musician and the average lis- tener. From the first number the in- terest of the audience was assured and their appreciation was shown by the many encores demanded. Three outstanding features of the program were the fine tone quality, the excellent enunciation, and the splendid balancing of parts. Selection of numbers to form an unusually well-rounded program was noticeable and all types of choral music were well illustrated. In all the selections the attacks and releases were especial- ly well executed, testifying to the careful training of the members. Sing Old Numbers Fine shadings of tone was a char- acteristic of the first group of songs, @ collection of old numbers including classics of Bach, Handel, Haydn and others. Perhaps those of most appeal were the “Ave Maria,” “Break Forth © Bounteous Light” and “Cherubim Song.” Blending of the voices was pleasing and the fine passages were handled with sure dramatic instinct. “The Hallelujah, Amen” from “Judas Maccabeus” showed finished tech- nique and well controlled volume. Offering a contrast from the heav- jer part of the program, the number by the male quartet, made up of Emil and Richard Klein, William Thorn- ton and Vernon Squires were well received. Their interpretation of “In- victus” was and they proved failing balance, but also facility of shading and voice-blending. The group of marimba solos by Robert Ryan appealed to the popular fancy and he was called back again and again, responding generously. While lighter than the other program numbers, his pieces were gay and fanciful. Opening with the familiar “Poet and Peasant” overture, which with his dance suite and his pleasing rendition of “Mighty Lak’ a Rose” and “Believe Me if All Those Endear- ing Young Charms.” Prof. Rowland Sings Prof. Rowland consented to sing during the program, selecting a group of delightful Scotch and English folk songs and finishing with “Vespers” from Milde’s folio “When We -Were Very Young.” A Welshman by birth, Professor Rowland has a fine appre- quently combines these old melodies in his programs. The negro spirituals included in the final group of numbers will be re- membered long both for their haunt- oe melody and excellent massing of ne. Following the concert Professor Rowland, Miss Ethelyne Jorve, pian- ist, and the 42 members of the club were the guests of local almuni of the University of North Dakota at a re- ception in the World War Memorial building.
