ORGAX RECITAL.
The recital given by Miss Fether¬ olf, organist of St. John's Lutheran church, was well patronized and highly appreciated. It preceded the vesper service, giving the people an opportunity to enjoy pipe organ mu¬ sic at a regular service. This was an innovation and will be continued at regular intervals. The selections were very well chosen and Very ef¬ fectively rendered. Beyond the reg¬ ular and formal Liturgical service the organ is used very little. There is no instrument that affords such a variety of tones as does the pipe organ. Just such an innovation will give all of us the benefit of unsur¬ passed harmony and create a desire for the very best quality of music. The next recital will be given No¬ vember 13.
