Mr. and Mrs. Wills are experienced entertainers who have perfected their art under 'he best obtainable masters. In their ' ands thg play receives a clever inter pretation. These two dramatic artists are al so exceptional musician^ and, as a prelude to the presentation of “Atonement," they feature a series of charming songs.

Mr. Sokoloff has arranged gram for the Macon concert which should make a strong appeal not only to the trained musicians of this teritory, but to all who find joyment in music in any of its forms. It is due to his knowledge of what the public wants and enjoys that has made Nikolai Sokoloff one of the most loved conductors of all time, well as one of the greatest. REV. F. H.
