While it required -some exertion on the part of thes banker and others interested, they feel fully repaid for.their labors by the splen- did way that Norwich men and wom- en responded to their appeals.

Glee Club Assisted Rendered Program. Girls’ Finely A most enjoyable as well as partic- ularly well rendered concert was given by the Academy orchestra under ¢the directorship of Frederick Cranston Friday. evening in Slater hall. Assist- ing - the.orchestra was the Girle’ Glee club. -The hall was fiked to its ca- pacity by an audience whose prolonged applause testified to. their enjoyment of the entertainment offered. The program was extremely well chosen. Too much credit can scarcely be given- to. the director for the uni- form ‘excellence of the performance and the: evidences. of -painstaking and long practice: The work of the orchestra as a whole was smooth and of ‘a volume -which was produced without sacrificing - the tone. The attacks, always a severe test in concert work, were unconscious- iy fine and unstrained. While all the parts were well sustained ‘and balanced some: of :the “work of the stringed in- struments ‘'was unusually good. The March of the Flambeaux was irspiring and martial, Shubert’s Minuet dainty mance by with and_attractive, while the Ro- Rubinstein ~was delightful ich undertones full of color In ‘Suppe’s Overture the orchestra Zave. its most ambitious piece and piaved it remarkably well.- Richard W. Arnold did some’ particw'arly fine wark in the clarinet part. Robert Gale Noyes played the Grand Concert Mazurka by Friml with ex- ceeding brillianey - and verve. His phrasing. was. clear and decisive and his tone pure. - As encores he played Coubie dans by Josef Hoffman of the modern French echool and A Song by MacDoweil. The trio, Berton Frank Noves, Wil- Ham A. Ricker and Robert Gale Noyes, gave great emjoyment by their render- ing of the dreamlike Slumber Sogg by Eppinger and the Capriccio from Trio in D minor by Reissiger. -For encores they plaved By the Brook by . Bois- deffre and Standchen by Pache. They p'ay extremely well together. each part Peing particularly well sustained and vet subordinated to the' ensemble ef- fect. Miss Mary Lester w. heard in Springtide by Becker, accompanied by the trio. Miss Lester possesses a very fresh and pleasing voi: Her enuncia- tion is clear and she often ehows a sur- prising power and depth of tone as well as a pleasing art of interpreta- tion of the sentiment. Her encore was A Bowlof Roses by Clarks The Girle’ Glee club gave two charm- ing songs. Schubert's Sylvia is an old time ‘ favorite only too infrequently heard and the Aria from Samson et Delilah is equally lovely. They were sung with expression and were ex- tremely well phrased. For encore they sang Secrets, a Weslevan song. ‘The second part of the program wag entirely orchestral. The tvpical Strauss Morning Journals with its pronounced rhymn was most pleasing. Moszkowski's swinging Spanish Dance set all our pulses dancing and the con- cluding number, the Prelude by Rach- maninoff. was a fine piece of orchestra- tion, played.with-force and understand- ing: The singing of "America concluded a highly enjovable evening.
