THE flrst few days of the week just

worth, who is the yeungest daughter of

ing and hunting expedition, and they
have taken a Chinese servant as cook in
preference to boarding at the farm
houses. Mr. and Mrs. Lloyd Wlckersham are

Through an error the mention of a
musical at Bilers' Hall, given by Mrs.
Imogene Hardlng-Brodie's pupils. Miss
Flora Fleischner, soprano, and Miss Rea
tha Fowler, meuo-contralto, failed to ap-'
pear in last Sunday's Issue. Miss Fleisch
ner has a charming voice of wide range,
with delightful tone coloring and dra
matio quality. She sings with intelli
gence and temperament, and for so
young a girl is remarkably well poised.
Her selections were both interesting and
difficult, comprising English, French,
German and Italian compositions. Miss
Fowler's voice is powerful, characterized
by purity, sweetness and considerable
pathos. Both singers show correct
breathing and their enunciation is also
worthy of comment. Miss Fowler and
Miss Fleischner were each deluged with
quantities of flowers. ,'
