THE Ketcham concert on Tuesday,
closing up the Musical Convention,
was a very successful and enjoyable
affair. The audience was large, con-
sidering the very unfavorable state of
the weather. To say the program
was good gives the public a very faint
idea of its excellence. In addition to
the choruses, glees, anthems, and
hymns sung by the class, Mies Lang-
staff sang a number of solos in her
best style ; 0. W. Weeks treated the
audience to a splendid solo, a quartette
was sung by Misses Langstaff and
Duncan and Messrs. Wade and Weeks
provoking a great deal of merriment.
The convention has been n marked
success and Mr. Weeks reputation as
an instructor is fully established and
any future visits will be greeted with
large classes. A Musical Society was
organized at the close of the concert
and the following officers were elect-
ed :—E. E. Wade, Pres. ; Mrs. F. 0.
Rogers, Vice -Pres. ; W. H. Moss,
Sec. ; Miss Lizzie Jackson, 'Treas. ;
Mies Lille O'Connor, organist, and
W. Coutts, director. It 28 intended
to hold the first meeting thie (Friday)
evening, 1n the Town Hall, when a
large attendance of persons desirous
of becoming members is requested.
The object of the Society is to bring
the best musical talent of Brussels
and its surroundings together and for
the purpose of training persona in
need of ib in the art of reading music
and becoming familiar with musical
difficulties.
