Miss Kate Ede, teacher of music
in the Heppner schools, reports to
this paper that she was greatly
pleased to be able, through the cour
tesy of Mr and Mrs. Frank Turner,
to attend the opera, "The Chocolate
Soldier," presented by the students
of Whitman college in Walla Walla
on Thanksgiving evening. She gives
a glowing report of the splendid
performance of the Whitman music
students, both the soloists, the cho
rus work of the singers being of a
very high order, nad the acting su
perb, all of which was very ably
sustained by the splendid Whitman
orchestra. She was especially proud
that her former pupil, Bobby Tur
ner, though in his first year at col
lege, was placed among the singers
in the chorus, being in the tenor
section. There were nine principal
soloists and actors, among these
being Laurel Beach, of Lexington,
high tenor, whom the leader says
is the only student in the school
that was able to sustain the very
high tenor of the character he rep
resented in the opera. The chorus
was composed of 45 singers, and the
entire performance went off with
snap, and Miss Ede feels that it was
indeed a rare treat to be able to see
this splendid presentation of a pop
ular opera
