premium. Mr. H. E:athven McDonald,
the favorite baritone sang in excellent
voice, and his renditi ins were heartily
appreciated. Among his best numbers
were "Standard of th:1 Braes O'Mar,"
and "My Ain Fireside " A duet "The
Oroo'.ed Baubee," by Mfr. McDonald and
Mrs Kleiser-Paiue, in S otoh dialect, was
vociferously applauded and as au encore
they sang "When e Gang Awa'
Jamie." Miss Mary C Donaldson, a
native of Scotland, pr ved herself an
artist in her profession and rendered
"The Tay Bridge Disas -er," "A Talk-
ative Woman," and ot er selections to
the delight of the au ansa. Although
this was Miss Donalds m's first appear-
ance to a Wingham au Bence, it is safe
to predict that it will not be her last.
The inimitable "Jim" Fax, whom the
people never tire of hearing, was in fine
form and as usual -ontributed most
generously to the humarous part of the
program. Mrs. Lill: a Kleiser-Paine
possesses a rich soprano voice, which
was shocn to splendid advantage in her
several selections. IT'' rendition of
"Jock O'Hazeldean," fairly brought
down the house, and a an encore Mrs.
Paine sang "Annie Laurie." Mies
Mabel McDonald, hig land dancer, in
the "Highland Fling," "Irish Jig" etc.,
was highly appreciate , and Piper Mc-
Donald handled the ipes in his own
inimitable manner. Mrs. G. C. Hanna
and Mrs. H. Ruthven foDonald presided
very efficiently at th piano. The con-
cluding number on a programme, a
trio' "Past 12 O'oloc -," by Mrs. Rleiser-
Paine and Messrs. nth n McDonald
ve on d
and James Pax, we probably the best
treat that ever was given to a Wingham
audience. The ntertainment may
safely be pronoun ed a successful one
from every point o view and the So-
ciety will have a ice balance to the
credit of its funds.
