The Men’s Society of the church had invited its members and friends to a re- ception that proved a success in every way. A musical program of an exceptional high order of merit was rendered during the evening. The Apollo Quartet and the Im- perial Banjo Club sang and played several selecticrs, and were given the unqualified approval of the audience. Miss Dorothy Byrd Rogers, whose remarkable soprano voice has won her so much praise, sang the Cavatina from “‘Ernant"’and an encore in | a charming manner. Solos by Mrs. Frank | A. Gardner, Mr. G. A. Prevost and Mr. Frank P. Reeside also evoked enthusiastic applause. At the close of the program re- freshments were served, and « pleasant evening ended.
