Dr. fUrbert C. MlUrr. president of
tha college. Introduced Her. W. O.
Kllot. Jr- who dellTered the annual
address, tha subject of which was
"Sincerity." Mr. Kllot spoke eloquently
and earnestly concerning the urgent
need for carrying sincerity Into pro
fessional life as well as Into the borne,
clrlc and church Affairs. Once when
attending tha commencement exercises
of a medical collexe he heard a phy
sician In Ms charge to the clays advice
the nealy fledged doctors to be ex
ceedingly careful In neklng a. diag
nosis, but when It was once msde to
adhere tenaciously to It. and never
show sign of cnange of opinion.
This advice Mr. Kllot criticised,
counseling the class before him to be
absolutely sincere with their patients
and all others with whom they hsd
bu9tns dealtna In professional life.
mly In this way could ih-y develop an
honorable manhod. All the his her
lualttleft which enter Into a man's
home life should f tnd their way Into
his profession. There should be no
descent Into commercialism, the bane
of oar modem civilisation. The Ideals
that enter Into a man's friendships,
rlttxenship. and church Itfe should be
come a vital part also of his dally work
tn the office and the great world of
affairs. This Impressive and eloquent
address was listened to with earnest
attention by the lame audience.
After some orchestral and vocal
music the degree of Doctor of Dental

German numbers were given with
much intelligence and insight, and the
vocal difficulties of the Brahms and
Schumann numbers were successfully
overcome, tn spite of th. fact that tho
singer accompanied himself, which,
considering the elaborate planism of
some of th. accompaniments, waa no
small feat. Mr. Alexander is a singer

CONCERT AT MARSHFIELD
Organisation Is Musical Life of Coos Bay Metropolis and Members Make
Special Effort to Produce Numbers of Highest Class.
MARSHFIELD, .Or, May J7. (Spe
cial.) The Chaminade Club, the
members of which, assisted by
Portland talent, gave a concert here
May 17, Is one of the leading musical
organizations In the Stat, outside of
Portland and Is the only club of its
kind in this part of the state. The
membership comprises musical women
of this city who are organized for their
own training and for the musical ad
vancement of the locality.
The attractions of the concert are
Mrs. Elfrida Heller Welnsteln. soprano,
and Mrs. Delphine Marx, contralto, of
Portland. The club gives several con
certs every season and secures some
well-known singer as a special attrac
tion. The club members assume the
financial responsibility of the under
taking, simply that the people of the
city can have the opportunity of en
Joying a high-class musical entertain
ment. Among some of the other Port
land singers who have been brought
here were Mrs. Mae Dearborn Schwab,
who has appeared with the club on
two occasions, and Rose Coursen Han
scome, also of Portland. These con
certs have attracted much atention In
musical and boclal circles of this part
of the state.
The club has a chorus which has
been credited with being one of the
best in the state. The chorus is under
the leadership of Mrs. William Hors
fall, Jr., who is a director, and musical
work is of a class which Is not often
heard outside of professional organ
izations. There are also a number of
accomplished soloists in the club mem
bership. The officers of the club are: Presi
dent, Mrs. Charles Stuaff; vice-president,
Mrs. J. T. Hall; recording secre

. At last Friday night's service at the
Temple Beth Israel, Lieutenant

partook of the nature of a Decoration
Day service, and a sermon was
preached on "Patriotism," after which
Mrs. Rose Bloch Bauer sang by re
quest "The Star Spangled Banner," In
thrilling style. Mrs. Bauer has also
been asked to sing this National song,
to orchestral accompaniment, at the
commencement exercises at Oregon
Agricultural College, Corvallls. Gr
and at the July Fourth exercises at
the Chautauqua. Gladstone Park..
...
Mrs. Delphine Marx, - contralto, has
returned from Prinevllle, Or., where
she gave a concert, with distinguished
success. She was received with every
mark of favor.
...
This extract from the current issue
of the Musical Leader, of Chicago and
New York, relates to Miss Marion
Bauer of this city, daughter of Madam
Julia H. Bauer, quite a talented Amer
ican composer: "I was very much In
terested in hearing recently a number
of songs by Marion Bauer, a young
American composer, who has been
continuing her work here this Win
ter with Dr. Paul Ertel, the distin
guished critic and composer. Miss
Bauer was not a novice at her partic
ular line of work when she came to
Berlin, and the theory that the more
you bring the more you take back
with you, has received strong ex
emplification in her case. I find In
her work a most felicitous combina
tion of the spirit of the modern
French school, held In judicious re
straint by sound healthy musical per
ceptions, which still admit Bach.
Beethoven and Brahms to a place in
the modern musical scheme. Har
monically she is rather bold decided
ly so for a woman but she has not
thrown overboard melody and euphony
so that the balance of her work is
well preserved. She is fearless, but
not audacious, and it is this recogni
tion of the boundaries which makes
for the preservation of form the sus
taining of a melodic line and. a treat
ment of the text which is not obliged
to suffer under far-fetched and bizarre
effects. Madam Schumann-Heink, who
has helped more than one young com
poser to well deserved recognition, has
had one of Miss Bauer's earlier songs,
'Light.' on her programme through
out the season. Other songs which
speak, of a quite distinctive creative
talent and are not only full of fancy
and originality, but are, at the same
time, eminently 'singable,' are a
'Nocturne,' 'War Ich eln Vogleln' In
to which are Introduced some very
Interesting genuine bird motives from
the composer's note book; 'Dream
Water,' full of fancy and mystery,
and a 'Bacchanale,' which offers a
baritone most effective repertoire ma
terial. These songs were given a most
effective interpretation by Julia Hein
rlchs, who, greatly to the surprise of
the many persons interested in her

cellence was noted at the recent recital

whole recital, among' piano students-
was one of the most important of the
local season.

a piano recital notable for its excel
lence, last Wednesday afternoon, and a
large number of interested auditors
were present, the event being an invi
tation one and under the direction of
Alf Kllngenberg. Good musical work
was done, and the fine rendition of the
selections given spoke well for the en

Frances Wilson, Miss Ruth Lange, Miss
Esther Tucker, Miss Mary Adair, Miss

Miss Jean Mackenzie, Joseph Minott and
William Warriner, who all played in
creditable fashion. Mrs. F. N. Pendle
ton, Mrs. W. L. Brewster, Mrs. Robert
H. Strong and Mrs. William S. Biddle,
two students each playing on two
pianos, gave a well sustained rendition
of Wagner's "Einzug der Gotter," and
they deserve credit for good ensemble
effects. The last number on the pro
gramme was a most interesting one,
an "Andante Splanato" and "Polonaise," .
by Chopin, which was most satisfac
torily played, from memory, by Miss
Constance Piper, with accompaniment'
arranged by Mr. Kllngenberg and
played by him on a second piano. This
