The news that Ira Pratt will open a studio in Enterprise will be wel comed by many who will wish to avail themselves of his talent as a teacher. Mr. Pratt has won a blj place in this neck of the woods as a musician, but he held a large place in the musical world before he ever heard of Wallowa county. He studied under the best teachers in the great musical centers of the East and had gained enviable fame as a concert vocalist -when his health compelled him to give up music for railroading. After an operation he completely regained his voice and is now resuming bU interrupted life- work. His standing in the musical world is shown by such notices as tnese: Denver News "Big Denver church in improving song service se cures golden-voiced chorister. It is emarkable how the First Baptist church has forged to the front In the quality of its music.' Ira Pratt, the director, has gathered one of the finest choruses ia Denver.
