CHORAL SOCIETY
FOR HERSHEY
LOCAL SINGERS MAY BE ORGAN-IZED
INTO CHORUM-MEM-BERSHIP
OPEN TO ALL
SINGERS
**
For some' time there has been talk
in the Y:- M. and Y. W. C. A. of or-ganizing
a mixed chorus. There is
good material available to make a
chorus of possibly - .twenty-five or
thirty voices. Such-a body of singers
organized and under .able leadership
would be invaluable to the town for
there are many occasions when a body
of singers is needed to lead in singing
and to render special . productions.
Director Feese who has proved "him-self
such an able Reader in the band,
and orchestra is deeply interested in
the proposed organization and will-ing
to take up the leadership of it. <
¦; The new organization would not
necessarily mean the doing away with
the Y. M. C. A. glee club as it is or-ganized
at present. It could still be
maintained "within the chorus and a
similar club could likely be formed
for the ladies. These clubs would add
to the variety of programs that could
be rendered by the chorus. A meeting
will likely be held during the next
Week to consider the new organiza-tion.
" •_ !*" "
IT WILL BE HELD IN THE HER
SHEY PARK PAVILION ON
WEDNESDAY, MAY 15TH

there will be a "May Hop" at the
Hershey Park Pavilion. Great
preparations have been made to make
this affair a huge success. The pavil-ion
will be gaily decorated with flow-ers,
. flags and bunting. The music
will be "great,". as Prof.. Feese has
prepared a program of popular airs,
and the orchestra will play these
numbers with a swing and dash that

'efforts. There will be several fea-tures,
consisting of a Grand March,
a Paul Jones and a Moonlight Waltz
(with a moon). A carnation will be
presented to every lady attending the
hop. Admission will be 20c for
