But in re- gard to the other sign which was to be erected over Main street near the Wauregan House corner they found that they would not be permitted to attach the sign to private property and that it would cost about $400 to put up the necessary supports and at- tachments under these circumstances. They asked for advice in’ the matter from the council. It was referred to the public works committee. The report of Treasurer William Caruthers was accepted as usual without reading and the same was done with the report of Street Com- missioner E. C. Lillibridge.

With Christmas Carols Made Delight- ful Programme by Norwich Musical Association. The regular monthly concert of the Norwich Musical assoctation was held in Slater hall annex on Monday even- ing. There was a large attendance who thoroughly enjoyed the excellent programme presented. This was com- posed of old carols and ballads. One seemed back in the romantic atmo- sphere of the good old days of our an- cestors in Merrie England. The Christmas carols were most ap- propriate to the coming Yuletide and weer given with good tone and har- mony by the double male quartette under the leadership of Messrs. Learn- ed and Habekotte, The old English, Scotch and Irish ballads were given the characteristic style and tempera- ment of each of the three tribes of Britain by the various singers, thus giving life and variety to the pro- gramme. The ballads themselves were also varied, from the martial airs of a brave and patriotic expression to those of poetry and sentiment and of the earlier folk song telling of fairy folk. Last, but not least, were two Scotch dances, the sword dance and the Highland fling, given in a Scotch sol- dier's costume (red coat and kilts in fhe clan plaid), worn in the Boer war in South Africa. The bagpipe was missing, but was more than made up for by Archibald Mitchell's spirited playing of his violin with which he led the dance. The decorations cleverly carried out the Christmas spirit in the arrange- ment of evergreen and scarlet and were arranged by Mrs. Frank C. Tur- ner. In opening the programme, Presi- dent Charles W. Gale emphasized the fact that these meetings are held on the first Monday of each month, the next one coming on Jan. 3d. The first numbers were the three carols, God Rest You Merry, Gentle- men, old English, While Shepherds Watched Their Flocks, M. Pretorius (1571-1621), and_Christmas Hymn, 17th century, given by Messrs. Habekotte, Learned, Blackledge, Stevens, Over- bagh, Jackson, A. Michell, 4th, and Dr. Lynch. Miss' Olive Rleily accompa- nied. Mrs. William A. Norton sang the English ballads, The Banks of Allan Water, anonymous, O, the Oak and the Ash, i7th century, and Cherry Ripe, 1Sth century. Her old fashionea cos- tume zave added lllusion and charm to ber singing. Mrs. Willis Austin ac- companied. The sword dance was next given by William Honeyman, accompanied by Archibald Mitchell, violin, and Miss Isabel Mitchell, piano. The Scotch ballads were Where Hath Scotland Found Her Fame, Fulcher, Scots, Wha, Hae, by Burns, and Annie Laurfe, and were fittingly rendered by Archibald P. MacDougall, Miss Annie Tafft at the piano. The Highland fling by Mr. Honeyman and the Mitchells was also warmly ap- plauded. Mrs. Frank L. Farrell sang sweetly the Irish ballads, The Pretty _Girl Milking Her Cow, air by Callin Deas, The Minstrel Boy, Thomas Moore, and The Leprahaun, a song about those tricky little fairies, Miss Reilly accom- panying. The more dramatic Irish ballads, Mother Macree, S. Lover, Dear Little Shamrock, and Come Back to Erin, were given perfect expression by A. Craig Taylor, with Miss Annie Tafft at the piano. The programme concluded more finely rendered carols by the male chorus, The First Noel, tradi- tional old English, another Christmas hymn of the 17th century and Holy Night, old German. No encores were given on account of the length of the programme. The committee in charge have the thanks of the association, as well as have the entertainers, for a very at- tractive programme skilfully carried out. ith three GIFTS FROM BALTIC.
