Violinist Gives Out Program Mary Schultz. Salem violinist, who will give her first concert for "horns folks" this week, will be greeted by numberless friends who have watched her progress since she first began appearing in public.

It is promised that fo versatility of ef fect, vocal and emotional, th program selections for? the con cert will have had no previous equal. Adding zest and Interest to the event will be the rendition of "Boating Song." composed and arranged for male voices and ded icated to the Apollo club by Misa Bruce Putnam, whose ability as a "composer of great merit Is fast becoming prominent in the world of music. Her composition has been found, by the singers, to be cleverly different;-adaptable to great possibilities in expression and harmonic effects and having the earmarks of genius among modern works Schubert's Sere nade., sung by the club at its clos ing concert last season, will be repeated at this concert at the special reqnest or a large number of associate members.
