The Presbyterian Choir.

The choir of the Presbyterian church is making special effort at this time to improve their music that it may add more interest to the general services of the church.

The leadership is in the hands of Miss Enid Alexander with violin, Mrs. May Bowsher piano, and Mr. Albert Carrithers with the cornet. Miss Alexander has taken courses in violin music under Prof. Heff and Prof. Abbott of Des Moines, and is a graduate this year of the music department of the Randolph-Macon Womens' College of Lynchburg, Virginia.

Mrs. Bowsher is a graduate of the Conservatory of Music, of Maryville, Mo., and has taken special training the past year in public school music under the supervision of public school music of Lincoln, Neb.

Mr. Carrithers has had four years continuous playing the cornet in band and orchestra work.

If you want to hear an excellent violin solo come out to either the morning or evening service. Those most interested in the matter hope to add more orchestra and vocal talent as soon as the plans can be carried out. Mr. Carrithers leads the Sabbath school music with the cornet.

All young people and children who do not have other Sunday school preference are especially invited and will be made welcome if they will come and aid in this service.
