LOCAL SINGERS ARE RECEIVED WARMLY AT SONG FESTIVAL Variety of Good Voices Holds | Attention of 800 Music- Lovers For Two Hours Bismarck's first mid-winter song festival, featuring choir, chorus, duet and solo numbers, won the warm ap- proval of 800 Capital City music-lov- ers at the World War Memorial build- ing Sunday afternoon. Those w! me to hear were pleasant ised that Bismarck could offer such a comprehensive pro- gram of difficult numbers and that the Capital City’s home talent includ- ed such a variety of good voices. } Bursts of applause came regularly | from the opening of the two-hour program, in which the Trinity Luth- eran church junior choir presented two numbers, to the finale, a group of three solos by Maude A. Tollefson, founder of the local sing guild, The festival idea was conceived by; Miss Tollefson and sponsored by the singers’ guild, which is affiliated with | the state fed Mrs. Plays Lending v the program were Mrs. Fay Brown, who presented a piano solo, and the Mandan male chorus of 25 voices, which made a dis- tinct hit with its four-number pre- sentation. The Mandan group was directed by J. C. Gould, with Walter Tostevin as accompanis Not only were many of Bismarck’s finest adult voit brought to the pro- gram, but a wealth of talent among the junior singers of the city was un- covered. Young singers who were warmly re-| ceived included Vivian and Lucille Coghlan, who sang two duets, Ruth! Christianson, Edith Guthrie, and} Esther Jacobson. Soloists of the jun- jor choir, Bernice and Walter Ulmer and George Shafer, Jr., showed mark- ed talent. Adults singing solos or making up duets or trios included Grace Livdahl, Mrs. G. A. Dahlen, Clarion E. Larson, Dagny Aslakson, Lorenzo Belk, Myron H. Anderson, Mrs. G. J. Worner and Miss Tollefson. Three Played Accompaniments Violin obbligati were played throughout the concert by Miss Tol- lefson, while Vivian Coghlan and Donna Jean Davis alternated as ac- companists for the various numbers. Ruth Saxvik was accompanist for the junior choir, which was directed by Miss Tollefson. Because some members of the Man- dan chorus found it necessary to leave earlier than had been expected, the program was altered slightly. Ori- ginally scheduled to sing a two-num- ber finale, the chorus sang all four of its numbers at its first appear- ance, enabling some of the Mandan | men to leave before the conclusion. ium, with the audience seated in the bleachers and halcony on the north \dollar thus can be deflated as were ing off the incubus of a fixed-weight Senator Has Depression ‘Cure’ | ee ® ee * zs * * * oe WOULD REDEEM IN GOLD-But ! a % ee * e* + ** * Abandon Fixed- Weight Standard Abolition of the fixed-weight gold|the fixed-weight standard.
