In. it, many local music lovers feel, there was the greatest enjoyment of the season. Mary Silviera, the young coloratura soprano, with her inspiring and sym- pathetic voice, loaned much to the occasion. This young lady showed the greatest promise in her handling of the solos, she is undoubtedly ready to begifi a career which will wind up in the most coveted posi- tions in the musical world. Arthur Hadley performed most| creditably on the ’cello and the ac- complished accompaniments fur- nished by Millicent Chapman, piano, and Herman Siewart, flute, added much to the ensemble. Those in charge of the affairs have expressed their most sincere grati- tude to the donors to the fund and to the artists whose efforts made the affairs so successful.

Hawley To Entertain For College Miss—“New Britain Club N The presentation of “System,” a play by Rev. Dr. G, W, C, Hill, by the Brotherhood of the South Con- gregational church on Iast Tuesday and Wednesday cvening has evoked much favorable comment from peo- ple aabout the city. The story, con- cerning the troubles of an old man who pald the city $15 for an adding machine and then tried to get either the machine or the monfey out of the mass of red tape and the group of politiclans, was exceedingly well told by the author and well delivered by the actors. Winchell 8mith, of Farm- ington, aided in directing the produc- tion. The plece was staged in the South «church chapel. In unwinding the narrative an old Yankee farmer is one of the prin- dipal characters. Nathaniel Hobbs (the farmer), has niade a living and a good one by judging men and business, He is prevalled upon to buy an adding machine by one of the younger ‘enerlupn. his daughter. Whereupon he manages to locate & machine that has been discarded by the city by mistake and which may be purchased for $15. The machine is ordered back into the tax col- lector's office after the mistake has been discovered, but this does not chine. The interjections of the| farmer throughout the play and his| wholesome, if amusing, advice to politicians that he meets furnish the comedy feature. | The cast of characters was: Nathaniel Hobbs Raymond R..
