The musical clement on this side havo
again become keenly nctlve. The prep

teddfod which will be held nt.Wllkcs
Rarro, May 30, give every Indication of
Its being one of the best of recent years,
hence the activity of vocalists In this
centre of musical talent.
There ore several main prizes which
are worth competing for. Then again,
the distance to travel and the time re
quired nre so small that there Is no
reason why, with the ability and un
doubted talent of both singers and lead
ers, that West Scranton should not bo
represented In Wllkes-Barre on Decor
ation Day and return victorious. A
choir of mixed voices has not as yet
been formed, though arrangements are
being perfected toward that end. Pos
sibly this week will find tho choir al
ready at work at rehearsals.
The organizing of n party of male
voices has progressed much further.
Last Saturday evening a meeting was
held nnd officers were chosen. John II.
Powell was mude chairman; David
Owens, secretary; D. I. Phillips, treas
urer; Walter Davis, accompanist, and
(Prof. lorwerth Prosser, leader. Stated
meetings for rehearsals, etc., will be
arranged and a hall procured Immedi
ately. It was at first thought that only
one male voice party would bo taken
from here, but It now seems otherwise.
Lewis Wutklns, organist at St. Da
vid's Episcopal church and a hitherto
very successful leader, Is being urged
to form a party and enter this com
petition. There are many reasons why
Mr. Watkins would like to acceie to
the wishes of his friends. He may ac
cept a call to St. Johnsbury, Va., to a
similar position to the one he now holds
as organist and If so will probably re
move from here In tho fall. He would
like to add one more victory before
going. Besides, much have tho famous
Gwents, of Kingston, bousted of their
immunity from defeat. A first-class
opportunity to meet this excellent ag
gregation now presents Itself and many
there nre who would gladly like to go
to victory with Mr. Watkins as their
leader.

tho library reading rooms. If she could
Known, It would ho doubt have been to
her a sweet solace In tho hour of sulfer
lng, a gleam of golden light athwart the
dark shadows. Whllo paying a heartfelt
tribute to the dead would It bo unseemly
to pay a passing tribute to the living?
The Albright library Is tho greatest
boon ever given to this city. It has been
liberally patronized by all clnsses and
conditions of people; It has been a palace
of pleasure to the reader of romance;
It has been a storehouse of knowkdgo to
the student. Very much of its success
is duo to the kindness and efficiency of Its
employes. Scranton was indeed fortu
nate when it secured tho services of Air.
Carr as librarian. "You have but to
name your subject," said a gentleman to
mo tho other day, "and Air. Carr will
without hesitation pile your table full or
books containing Just tho Information
you are looking for, and he does It, too,
In such a pleasant and courteous manner
that ono would think that ho was the re
cipient rather than tho grantor of the
favor." This courteous disposition and
pleasing manner Is shared by all of his
assistants. There Is an atmosphere of
culturo and refinement pervading every
department of the llbray, and to this is
largely duo tho widespread influence of
this beneficent institution, A Reader.
