The February meeting of the Nor- ‘wich Music assoclation took the form of an organ recital which was held in Park Congregational church on Mon- day evening. As others than the members of the association were freely invited to attend, thére was a large audience which nearly filled the church and which thoroughly enjoyed the ex- cellent programme rendered. The first selection was Jubilate Deo by Silver and was played with expression by Miss Carrie Champlin. A vocal selec- tion followed, James Jackson giving a faithful interpretation of Why Do the Nations? from Handel's Messiah. Miss Annie Tafft accompanied. Miss Tafft then gave two finely rendered selec- tions, In Summer by Stebbins and An- dantino in D flat by Lemare, in which the mood of the composer was grace- fully brought out and won much favor from the audience. With Verdure Clad, from Haydn's Creation, was sung in excellent style by Mrs. Arthur E. Story, whose well trained volice is always heard with pleasure. Miss Tafft was her accompanist. Three organ selections by William F. Habekotte were much enjoyed. These were Debussy’s descriptive Eu Bateau, TRabikow's Orientale, and Moussorgshy’s Un Lacme, given in re- sonant and skilful style. Eben Learned sang in_his usual acceptable manner and in fine voice O Love Divine That Stooped to Share, arranged from Schu- bert’'s Du Bist Die Ruhe by George A. Kies. Miss Tafft accompanied. Mrs. Gardiner Greene also gave an excellent rendering of Sullivan's And God Shall Wipe Away All Tears, Mr. Habekotte giving her able uslslznce as_accompanist. ‘The melodious organ selection Chant D’Amour by Gillette was prettily play- ed by Miss Louise Fuller and the duet Come Unto Me by Coeuen well given by Mrs. Story and Mr. Learned in a most charming manner. The last number on the programme ‘was_Fugue. Vol. 11, No. IV,, G minor, by Bach, and a successful interpreta- tion of this difficult_composition was given by Herbert L. Yerrington.

Hair Often Ruined By Washing With Soap Soap should be used very carefully, it you want to keep your hair looking its best. Most soaps and prepared shampoos contain too much alkali, This dries the scalp, makes the hair brittle, and ruins it. The best thing for steady use is just crdinary mulsified cocoanut oil (which is pure and greaseless), and is better than the most expensive soap or any- thing else you can use. One or two teaspoonfuls will cleanse the hair and scalp thcroughly. Simply MARRIED HI\IES—‘BE\\E'I'I‘—IH Norwich. R. Graham, Lacien v Rev.
