J THK MCSICAT. RECITAI.. Saturday evening at the college chapel a large audience heard the recital given by vocal and piano students of the O. A. C. Miss Amy Willis Plummer introduced the program choosing ieethoven and Moszkowski as composers. Her work was marked by an intelligent compre hension and interpretation. Later in the evening iu duett with Master Goodnongh, Miss Plummer .-lemonstrated her artistic ability and musical generalship. Miss Lulu Spanler in two numbers and especially the second, Gounod's "Sing, Smile, Slumber," showed sur- j prising nnprorment in voice control. There was a cultivated effectiveness in her singing that did not leave with one 1 the impression that the singer was striv 1 ing .-.fter effect. I Miss Hattie Hoover in her piano play ing exhibited a delicacy of touch. and a tendency toward the brilliant iu execu tion. One of the most appreciated of the numbers was the singing of Rubenstein's ! "Since First I Met Thee," by Miss Ma bel Johnson. Her pure and full tones were peculiarly suited to this selection and ske colored her rendering with that natural shading of the voice to suit the ; words and melody which is included in tke term ' expression. 1 In Mordant Goodr.ough Be-.-ton coux- ' ty has a musical genius. He is but a mere lad yet he played without notes, and with the spirit of the true artist difti- ; cult ami classical selections from several work ot the musical department ot tne college, and Miss Ellis and Miss Nash, ! the instructors may justly feel proud of their pupils.

The impressive order of servxeofthe Episcopal church, the magnificent music, the surpliced boy choir, the beautiful decoration of plants a--d Somas all ait'ed in making this commencement Suvc'ay one of lasting influence. The snbject cannot be passed without specul mention of the music furnished by the recruited choir, which was direct ed by Miss Dorthca Nash and Prof, Craw ford. The selections were of the highest order of church music and were grandly rendered. SKXIOK NIGHT. Monday evening the abdicating sen iors entertained the public presenting the drama "After many days." The presi dent of the class, Dennis Stovall, pre ceded this with a neat little speech of thankfulness and good will. One who has been through the last year of college life understand? the de mands upon the senior's time and know how few are the hours he can devote to rehersing tor "senior night."
