Concert by Orphans Pleases
Plymouth Audience
A fair sized audience witness
ed the concert giver, by the
Methodist Orphanage Wednes
day night in the school auditori
um.
This is the first time Plymouth
has been honored by a visit from
this institution, and alljwho at
tended pronounce it one of the
best concerts ever heard here
The program was somewhat a
departure from the usual con
certs given by organizations of
this kind, in that it was purely
sacred in all its elements, but
was so arranged that it held an
equal appeal to all kinds of peo
ple with all kinds of sentiments.
The class numbered about fif
teen ranging from seven to nine
teen years of age, and all dis
played wonderful talent in the
execution of the parts assigned
to them.
No admission was charged, al
though a voluntary offering
was taken, ano we are informed
that the class manager was well
pleased with the generosity of
the people who were present, |
We hope to welcome these chil
dren to Plymouth again in the
near future, and trust when|
they do return they will be j
greeted by a larger audience.
