Next Tuesday evening at the Meth odist Episcopal church takes place the concert to be given by Hartridge Whipp, the noted baritone, assisted by Leonora Fisher Whipp. He comes heralded by most enthus iastic press reports from throughout the northwest, and there will be a great rush for seats at the concert La Grande in a way is starved for music, and perhaps has become dulled to the fact partly forgetting the joy and blessing which music can bring, but the glowing accounts of this con cert awaken everyone to interest and Hartridge Whipp will be greeted by a large audience. Among the many favorable press notices of his concert is the following from The Dalles Chronicle of Novem ber 10, 1916: "It was noticeable that the audi ence which filled the Empress theater last night to hear Hartridge Whipp, noted baritone, largely represented the audience Mr. Whipp sang to in The Dalles last spring. "Those who heard this sweet voiced singer last year were delighted with the chance of enjoying that pleasure again, which is the highest compli ment for any artist. From the man ner in which Mr. Whipp was received last night, he has proved himself to be one of the most popular singers ever hcaTd here. Ho held his audi ence without a single restless moment from his opening number until the close of the program and at its finale a burst of applause shook the theater that evidenced whole-souled sincere enthusiasm for his splendid work." February 1 Is Young People's Day. February 4 is young people's day at the Presbyterian church. All services will be planned with this in view. Bishop Paddock Passes Through City.
