Miss Lula and Docia Mathis will be joint hostesses at a large party to morrow afternoon, at their home near Americus, honoring Mrs. G. C. Webb, a recent bride. * ♦ 9 THE BELGIAN CONCERT. Americus music lovers who neglect ed to attend the concert given by the Belgian Trio on Tuesday night last missed a rare treat. Since the people of this city are credited with elevated tastes, as well as knowing a good thing when they see it, it is strange that there were so many who stayed at home or went elsewhere for enter tainment on that occasion. It has been suggested that the price of ad mission may have been too high. Shucks! This recital compared very favorably with any similar entertain ment given anywhere at any time. To a person whose soul responds to music, there is something in the tones of the ’cello that brings out a wonderful response, and thrills the i hearer as nothing else. The magic touch of Miss Jean on this in strument, as well as the harp, must Lave exceeded the most sanguine ex pectations of all present. It ia —aid 1 that, before the war, Miss Jean play ied for the social functions at the 1 palace of the king; and since music in elgium is advanced to a super la; t»ve degree, nothing further need be said as to her ability. The vocal selections by Mr, Collig non, baritone, were of a high order. His voice carries excellently in a wide range, and his manner of attack is quite similar to that of Caruso. The fact that his son was early captured by the invading Germans, and after making his escape is again fighting with his kiug, adds to the sympathy with which Mr. CollignoQ sings. Seldom have the people of Ameri cis had the opportunity to see and hear a more finished pianist than Miss Radoux proved to me. She is a charming person off the stage, and doubly so when seated at the instru ment. The entire program, while classical, was yet so well rendered that it proved most enjoyable and in teresting to all present; and the only regret was that, by lack of time, there was not more of it.
