Academy Entertainment.

After much previous talk of an en-
tertainment the Ready W. L T. S. so-
ciety on Friday afternoon ^rendered a
highly pleasing programme, both musi-
cal and literary.; Amongits prominent
features were the cornet solos by
Arthur Cobuifjn, the last tjeing given in
response to aihearty encore. The ad-
dress of welcome delivered* by the
"Primie Minister," J„ DeWitt Spitzer,
was an eloquent rhetorical effort, well
received by thje audienceJ A brilliant
performance on the violin by Carl
Mutzelburg; an artistic piano solo by
Archie Barclay; and a hjumorous reci-
tation by Mr. Winchester j followed. An
essay, j" Influence of Literature,'' wan
a well written production^ and showed
tiat the writer was conversant with
the world's literature, j Charles Hill
delivered a mirth-provoking selection
entitled "An Agricultural Address.'"

Again have the "legal light weights
made themsel res heard and felt. This
time it was a "paper,'' which they con-
descended to read before' the teachers,
students and visitors at the meeting of
the Ready W. I. T. S. It was, in
deed, a magr ificent production; one

worthy of the
