The first table setting Tuesday was by a committee from the Junior Service league, Mrs. Wil liam Thorndike and Mrs. Norton Smith. The two league members first laid the table with a pale green damask cloth, and then set it with Danish Princess silver and Rosenthal's Sovereign china, which has a pale green and gold design.

E. Gore) The annual spring concert of the Philharmonic Society of Southern Oregon, of which Richard D. Werner is the musical di rector and organizer, was given Tuesday evening at the high school auditorium! Bruno Pellegrini is associate conductor and Miss Mel ba Chehak is assistant conductor. The hall was comfortably fill ed with the usual enthusiastic and representative music lovers oi the southern Oregon com munity. Also many new faces were noted, there being many out-of-town guests who, in town for various musical and other week-end activities, remained for the entertainment offered by the concert. The program exemplified well kjJwn and popular vocal and in strumental numbers from both light opera and grand opera. The opening number was gems from "The Merry Widow" by Lehar, played by the orchestra, and fol lowed by the "Vilya" aria sung in enticing style and excellent voice by Medford's popular young vocalist, Tresa McMannis Matlack. . The second number was an opera skit, choruses from "Linda" in modern style with touches reminiscent of the south, composed and arranged by Mr. Werner. Mr. Werner's flights into the realm of composition are always original and stimulat ing, as was this. It was in four parts: Solo, "Treat Me Right'' based on a libretto discovered by the late Ed Andrews, and sung by Mrs. A. G. McMillin; "Hallowe'en," sung by Marie Guttenfelder; "Linda Lou" sung by Robert Corliss and "Lament" for chorus and orchestra. The introduction of two bal let groups from the dance studio of Miss Colleen Hope proved highly entertaining. The danc ers were attractively costumed and showed the aesthetic skill of Miss Hope and her group of 14 young students. The moot question of whether or not bal let has a suitable place in opera would surely be answered af firmatively by the people listen ing to this opera concert. Both Clarke, district chaplain; Mrs. Licklider, Gold Star Mothers. Other auxiliary guests were Mr9. Bertha Smith, Grants Pass; Mrs. Jewell Clayton, Illinois Val ley; Mrs. O. O. DeBerry, Med ford; Mrs. Vada Dahl, Gold Hill; Mrs. Virginia Kratz, Shady Cove; Mrs. Willi;. ms, president of the Rogue River Civic club. Mrs. Hopkins is also district president and Mrs. Hawkins is district secretary. Refreshments closed the eve ning, with Mrs. Mattie Adding ton and a committee in charge. groups were in oriental style and the music from "Hymn to the Sun," "Rimsky-Korsakov" and ballet music from "Aida" by Frances Thrun's beautiful con tralto voice was very effective in the aria, "My Heart at Thy Sweet Voice" from Samson and Delilah, Saint-Saens. After the intermission Ludwig Skala, baritone, delighted with the "Prologue" from "Pagliacci, ' which was followed by "Bell Chorus" always a charming and pleasing novelty. "Elsa's Dream" from "Lohengrin," rendered with artistic restraint and satis fying understanding by Loree Ford, soprano, was followed by the music preceding the entrance into the cathedral from the same opera, given by chorus and orchestra. Selections from "Carmen," in cluded the entr'acte, Act III, the smugglers' scene and the solo, "Habencra" interpreted by June Popham, contralto, a highlight of the program. Mr. Skala then sang "Oh Thou Sublime Sweet Evening Star" which proved, as did his first number that he is a popular and capable artist and a fine asset to Medford's musical colony. The majesty, dignity and beauty of the finale "Hail Bright Abode," Tannhauser, brought a heart warming concert to a successful close, Mr. Werner announced his program and gave interesting and educational program notes that were much appreciated.
