MUSICAL HOUR
AT ZENA CLUB

Zena The program of the Zena
Community club was an unusual
one at the last meeting, being
made up of two groups of musical
numbers, the first being offered by
a number from the Knight Mem
orial church of Salem, and the
second by a quartette of male
voices from Independence, members
of this group offering bits of mus
ical entertainment through the use
of odd instruments and different
ways of playing them.
Rev. H. O. Stover, tenor, assist
ed by Lawrence Deacon, baritone,
and Miss Myra Gleason, sang. Don
ald Allison was pianist. Lawrence
Deacon then sang and Miss Gleu
son followed with other numbers
by the trio.
Rev. Stover addressed the club
then, taking as his subject, "Com
munity Spirit." Ho gave mveral
Interesting illustrations of ideas
brought out in his talk, emphasiz
ing the point that community spir
it may exist in every community
that it is not necessary for all per
sons to believe alike and that dif
ferences of opinion make for pro
gress. Rev. E. O. Ranton of Indepen
dence had charge of the second di
vision of the program. Other
members of this quartette or which
he -was a member were Rev. Wil
lard, Mr. Kelley, and Mr. Ander
son, all of Independence. Mrs.

ano. Following this Rev. Ranton
played on an instrument made oi
a broom and cigar box. He also
played on a harmonica placed In
his mouth without the use of his
hands in adjusting the position of
it again during the playing of the
piece.
A bass solo by Anderson followed,
and Rev. Ranton and Rev. Willard
sang. This was one of the best
numbers offered.
Rev. Ranton then took his. violin
and demonstrated his ability to
play the violin in any pceltlcn
holding it behind his back, on the
shoulder, upside down and between
the knees. As a finishing touch
he offered Ralph Scott, president
of the club the bow of his violin
and in spite of Mr. Scott's pro
tests that he could not play a vio
lin, had him sawing across the
strings making fine music at a
great rate of speed, Ranton hold
in? the violin.
