An Accomplished Vocalist.
The Toronto Sunday World makes the
following complimentary reference to a
native of Wingham, who has won her
way to musical distinction in Toronto
and elsewhere: -"Laura Homuth, so-
prano, has been gainiag considerable
distinction this season both as a concert
soloist and as a teacher of singing at
the Hambourg Conservatory. A J ernes -
town paper makes the following com-
ment upon her singing with the James-
town Choral Soviety recently 'Of the
quartette of imported eoloists. Miss
Hornuth was far in the lead. She is
really an artist. A big, brilliant, clear,
vibrant voice, perfect enuaeiation, good
traditional style, equally at ease in
dramatic cre coloratura passages and
with a perfect legato style she left
nothing to be desired. She was entirely
good and satisfying.' In Waterloo,
London and other cities Miss Hotntith
received criticism equally flatteeing, and
as Little Buttercup, in the concert of
the Toronto Musical and Dramatic
Class, her singing and acting were
Ifighly commented upon." Miss Horn-
uth is one of the paid soloists in con-
nection with Trinity Methodist Church,
Toronto, and in addition fills many
other important engagements
The tontract has been let for a high
school at Winchesters the fifth in Dun -
daft county.
