Mate last summer and as a result the
father of the prisoner of yesterday had
been brought Into court to answer a

So excellent was the rendering of
their respective numbers that e*n
was recalled, hut neither beyond
how responded until the latter part of
the programme waa reached when
the audience became Insistent. Each
of the young ladies showed a wide
variation of their capabilities. They
held closely to the true Ideal of their
art. As any one who understand* thd
spirit of the programme and who
ieard Its execution will say the per
formance waa an extraordinary artistic
achievement. It le to the credit of
Wesleyan College that these young
ladles did their work so well for both
of them have received their Instruc
tlon In that Institution. While each
demonstrated their technique and each
received the evidences of the audi
ence's approval It was not until the
two came together. Miss Halley carry
ing the aria of ihe "Cradle Song"
with Mis* Matthews as her true toned
obllgatlst with Hepburn mnrvelouslly
reenforcing them on the piano that
the audience realised what a grand
cUmaterlc had oeen planned.
Miss Halley's voice is not only true
to the key but It has a wonderou* sym
pathetic quality in both the ypper and
lower register of her exquisite soprano.
The heart note Is always there and j
she sings as nightingale rarrola. Into I
Miss Matthews' work wns thrown the
fire of her energy, the exquisite modu- |
lntlon of her Interpretation, and the i
grace of delivery that la rarely to be j
found.
Upon the conclusion of the perform- j
aJ}ce the audience converted Itself In- •
to a congratulating body and the
young ladles were overwhelmed with
compliment*.
To Mr. Mlnderhaut the young ladles
are under special obligation for his,
preparation of the hall for the musi
cals. and also to Mr. Louis Rurghard
for a timely courtesy, his stock of
chairs being Instantly provided when
It was found that the audience wns

casion snd a j pedal rate has been
