There are "enough, young men in the , city for two bands. , NEVIN CONCERT COMPANY ! On last Thursday evening the Am: " eriean Legion and Veterans, of Foreign Wars presented the.Np.viiv Con- • cert Company as the first number of1 a series of entertainments. The 1 High School Auditorium was only 1 partly Ailed, greatly to the regret of • CapeNMay-'s music lovers. Even .tho • the afidience was small it made up in • enthusiasm amPuftpreciation what it lacked in numbers. A most delightful and artistic program was rendered by the company ' consisting of four young lady artists,

■ each of which was not only a wellpolished musician, but also a woman of personality, and refinement. Their music was well chosen and executed : with an ease, perfection and dignity ! that won all of. the audience, includ- ' ing the most critical. ^ The personel of. the company coni sisted of Miss Adelaide Murray, violinist; Miss Jamie Murray, pian- ! ist; Miss Jeanette Howell, clarionett ist, and Miss Irene Tajibr, director and 'cellist. N ' f The program began with a group - of the well-known Nevin compositions, including Narcissus, and the Sheppard Song. In fact the entire , . program was built upon the great 'American-' composer's works. ' The . first. part of the program ended with - . Nevin's "Good Night," from his Ven- ! etian Suite. The -itfusi'cal 1 . numbers ■ were interspersed with several read-, ings and impersonations. The imper- . sanation of the old mart by Miss HoW- • ell was particularly well rendered and 1 received. As a dramatic reader and elocutionist Miss Taylor displayed i wonderful talent in her reading, "The. , Girl at the Movies." Her child dialectic- productions were most pleasI ing' The' program ended with the ■ rendition of Kevin's "Gypsy Songs," 'which Were given the real gypsy setting by costuming. . 1 i All who attended the concert were i greatly pleased an'd expressed regret I that not Thore - people .heard it. i The Legion ' and Veterans of For- ■ eign Wars pre to be commended for their forward step in arranging a • serifs of big class eVtertainraents •. and also for' their excellent taste and : judgment shown in the selection of i them- Let us fill the auditorium next - Monday, when the famous Irish ten- • i or, Harold Proctor, will rehder an,r other high class 'mu.yical recital, ass sisted by. several artists of almost > equal reputation. The writer has ; heard Harold Proctor and can assure t the -musk lovers of Cape May a real . treat next Monday night in the High ( School Auditorium.
