P. Wenbh opened the pro- Jlgram of the evening with a very pretty instrumental number. She is a talented musician and her name on a program is always hailed with de- light. Miss Vera McRae, who was a well trained soprano, gave a lovely vocal number. Miss MeRae was followed by Miss Frances Riggins, whose cul- tivated voice was in splendid form, and who sang one of her prettiest numbers Two talented musicians of the younger society set, Miss Edith Tomlinson and Miss Ruth per, gave a briliant piano duet, which was skillfuly rendered. Mr. R. E. Lufsey closed the pro- gram with a humorous reading, and being unusually talented in this line, the audience were so delighted with his effort that he was forced to give another which was rendered in his usual happy style, without apparent effort and with the ability of the professional. Miss Louise Layton, who recently came to Lakeland from Kentucky, and who Is a very sweet singer, gave a vocal number, this being followed by a duet by Messrs. Messenger and Palmer, whose baritone voices were at their best, being especially suited to each other and to the song. Miss Esther Titman, who is a teacher of music at the High School, gave an instrumental number, which was encored enthusiastically, and she very gracefully responded with another lovely number. y Between 200 and 300 guests were to perfection but like many plants, when the flowering time comes and passes, they begin to decay. Music, like poetry, never e completed, ncw works of highed quality and possibility remaining for feel and minds can conceive, As the writings of Shakespeare are believed to represent a stage of per- fection not likely to be surpassod, the master geriod of the music world, [ the INth century represents the neir- est approach to perfection in mu-ic, As man today studies the Great ‘!(‘:I!'IIIII\I]\ for suggestions in - ar- ;4)\."-nvr1|'w; as he looks to the old jnm ters for inspiration in paintine |ar d to Shakespeare and other writors {long since dead for beantiful expr sions ot thought, so today we go to the great masters who lived in the I1Sth century, for all that the world has, that is truly great in music, The central figures of this period are Bach. Handel, Haydn, Mozart Beethoven; names which stand out above all others in the musical world, they never had superiors and prob- ably never will. It is scarcely too much to say that these great men exercised more in-| fluence upon the development of music than any composers that ever lived and their works form an in- dispensable part of the literature of music today; no program is complete without selections from this galaxy of eminent musicians. The fugue was the one form above all others which contributed to the greatness of this musical per- iod; this, Bach and Handel carried to the largest degree of perfection The oratorio received the attention of Handel and Haydn. Haydn and Mozart in the rich field of instrumen tal music was followed by Beethoven, above whom possibly no master ought to be placed; his ninth symphony which the first players called impos- grander music, as long as hearts can | | broad band covers the center.

The new picce is cleverly shaped and worm with the separate tab in front. Two folds of crape outline the edges. A ruflle of soft dull silk rib- bon finishes the neck and a bow is placed at the fastening.

The result is something elegant and wvery up-todate. JULIA BOTTOMLEY. Personal Economy, | My first and greatest economy is in buying street suits.
