PULLAR - & NIVEN SCOTS CELEBRATE " BURNS' BIRTHDAY “(;flan Douglas Holds Successful \ Conert and Ball _ Coming up to expectations in every ®espect, the third anrual concert and ball of Clan Douglas, Order of Scot- tish Clans, held last night at Turner Ball, was, by far, the most successful social function the clan has ever held. Several hundred were in attendance and all passed an evening of rare de- Hght. For more than two hours the Louis Ross Scottisn Concert company of . Boston entertained, furnishing an. A No. 1 program. The company in- cluded Margaret Wither, soprano; Jessie French, contralto, Frederick Kennedy, tenor; Lorn MacAdam, bas- s0; Tommy Lonergon, character com- edian; Nellle and Jeanie Irvine, Scot- tish dancers, David Ferriter, Highland piper, and Alice Pulsifer, pianist and accompanist. Through the efforts of the entcrtainers, the audience was ~transported to the land of the heath- er and hilltops, the home of Bobbie Burns, in honor of whose birthday the concert and ball were held. The ecompany was very generous with its encores and the program was extend- ed far beyond the original limitations. It would be difficult to state which member of the concert company proved most popular as each was ac- rorded enthusiastic applause at the conclusion of each number. As a compliment to the little island just a wee bit distant from Scotland, the audience extended an extra warm wel- come reception to ‘‘Come Back to Erin,” by Miss Wither, and “Mother Machree”, by Mr. Lonergon. Many there were, born in Scotland, who were taken back again to their old homes through the efforts of the singers. Pent-up emotion broke its bonds at the rendition of “Annie Laurie” by the quartet. As a fitting finale to the program the company and audience joined in singin,g “Auld Lang Syne.” No less popular was the Hartford Pipe Band composed of brawny lads &n kilts. The band rendered two num- bers, which were extended a deserv- ing reception. After the concert the grand march was formed, under the direction of William Sullivan, prompter. Dancing followed, an extensive program heing furnished by Judd's orchestra. While ighe waltz and one-step proved to be most popular with the younger gen- eration the older folks glecfully went through the difficult maneuvers of tl Highland schottische, the require- ments for which are nimble feet, in- exhaustible breathing organs and the possession of Scotch blood in vour veins. Altogether it was a most en- joyable evening. The committee of arrangements \&sonsisted of John Drummond, chair- man; John R. Blair, secretary: Dan Alexander, treasur John Pattison, David Morrison, John Grant, Willlam Scott, A. C. Ptolomy. James Marwlick and Steve Robb. The ushers were Joseph Wilson, A.
