Sanders, given in the Stieff hall last night, voiced but one regret, and that was that the rules of concert etiquette prevented Mrs. Sanders taking part in the program. The numbers were warmly appreciated and the entire program was pleasing, showing that Harrisburg has real singers who bid fair to hold a prominent place in the musical world. Mrs. William Witherow's singing was especially enjoyed, her work showing artistic finish and sympathy of tone quality. Her simple numbers were given with much case and the aria with fine dramatic effect. Mrs. Sander's capable direction was largely responsible for the suc cess of last evening's recital. The touch of the genuine musician who sacrifices much for the sake of the student's success, was apparent in the entire program. The numbors presented were: "In This Hour of Softened Splendor," Pinsuti, the Cecelia quartet, Mrs. Howard Gensler, Miss Edna Landis Miss Mabel Bright, Miss Clare Monn; "Come Into the Garden Love," Sal ter; "Dawn," Leoni; "Butterfly Time," Vernon, Mrs. Howard Gen sler; "The Wanderer's Night Song," Rubenstein.

'CENTRAL HIGH NOTES s Assembly FOP Argps A special assembly was held yes terday for the purpose of boosting subscriptions to the commencement number of the Argus. Professor Severance gave Business Manager Lewis K. Rimer the .platform short ly after the school had assembled. | "One thousand subscriptions by May I l" is the slogan that the school edi tors is working on. Professor Severance had several important matters to bring before the school, and proceeded with his business when the Argus represen tative had linished. His first item was a matter of reform, and ap plied to the Argus staff. The princi pal stated that next year the niem bers of the staff would be selected from all classes of the school, in stead of only the two upper classes, as has been the custom for many years. He believes that this change will arouse more interest in the school publication, and will bring the different divisions of the school into closer fellowship. His sugges tion was not made because he was dissatisfied with the work done un der the present system by the pres ent staff, but was made because he thought that a better paper could be published. The principal's next item was with regards to the purchase of War Sav ing Stamps by the students. He re minded the student body that the government had a new issue for the year 1919 on sale, and urged them to purchase the stamps in the same Quantities, and with the same will, that they had done when the country was at war. The War Stamps will be on snle at the office as soon as arrangements can be made for their purchase, and bulletins will be pQst ed showing just how many stamps have been bought by the students from time to time. No campaign will be waged, but it is up to the Central students to keep up the pa triotic spirit of the school by pur chasing these stamps.

For the first time in the his tory of the class of 'l9 was the elec tion of officers held in a class meet ing.
