Students' Concert Scores Success at Fort Garry Hotel Musio Lovers Given Real Treat at Recital by Miss Robert ton's Pupils Miss Mary L. Robertson, teacher, pianist, organist, and all-round finished musician, Is well-deserving of the heartiest congratulations on the success of the concert given at the Fort Garry Tuesday evening, when her senior piano pupils were Pre sented In many highly Interesting numbers. The proceeds wero in aid of the Presbyterian Fresh Air Camp at Gimli, a most worthy object, and the audience was one representing well the musical culture of Winnipeg, including a large number of the leading Instrumental teachers, who surrounded Miss Robertson at the close of the Concert and expressed pleasure and praise In no unstinted manner. Mrs. L.

V. Juuson, Miss Gladys Lewis and Miss Helen Gilbert were on the program for single numbers, and their artistry was indeed commendable. All three showed a njie conception of that singing tone without which there is very little to piano playing. Miss Annie Blyth Moncrieff, who from tender years has pursued her studies under Miss Robortson's tuition, appeared first In a Ballade by Chopin and later in a group of three numbers, respectively by iDebussy, Poldini und Josef Shadwick. The Barcarolle by our young violinist-composer, did not suffer from the distinguished company.

So gratifying was Its reception as played last evening that It was dedicated to the young pianist. Miss Moncrieff, and once in the publishers' hands, it will Jive aa a worthy Canadian composition. Miss Sarah Fredericftson was Joined by Miss Robertson at the eecond piano in Printemps (second movement) by Debussy. The selection, one of the extremes of the extremist composer, was most cleverly and brilliantly played. The concluding piano number was the famous Tschaikowsky "Symphonic Fathetique," played by Miss Robertson, Miss M.

King, Miss Fred-erlckson and Miss Moncrieff. It was a noble effort on the part of the ladies; in fact, one of the finest exam- les of ensemble playing heard In Winnipeg this season. Josef Shadwick deepened the artistic impression made on his first appearance a rov days ago. He Is a genuine artist, without tricks, and wrapt up In honest and Intelligent and thoroughly enjoyable Interpretation, a sound student of the Engllsn school. Readings by Mrs.

Donald McKenty efficiently accompanied ty Mrs. Jones-Brewer, ndded delightful variety to a program which, from start to finish was enjoyable. Miss Robertson was the recipient of a bouquet of American Beauties. TO REMOVE ONION ODOR A quick and simple way to remove the odor of onions from pots and pans is to wash and dry the pan and scour w-ith common salt. Place it on the stove until the salt is brown; shake often and afterward wash the utensil In the usual way.

White Robin arrived with the snow In Monftlalr. Concert of Men's Musical Club Is Well Attended Long Program Shows Many Phatet of Practical Work of Organization The concert in aid of tho fund for Canadian prisoners of war given In Young church Tuesday cvenlns by the Men'a Musical flub was largely attended. The lengthy program developed the many-sided practical work of tho organization and left no room to doubt that within the membership there is much excellent talent, capable of giving genuine enjoyment. An outstanding feature of the program was the male chorus. Ab a philosopher has said, it Is not always what we achieve, but also what we aim ut, that counts, and there was very intelligent effort on the part of the cholf There is, confessedly, a dearth of high tonnrs necessary for auch works as "The Martyrs" and Stanford's "Songs of the Sea." For over thirty years Winnipeg has had one male choir after another.

There have been such excellent hlgn or counter tenors as Muwson, liellhouse, Urazy, Percy Holllngshead and others, but the difficulty is that they never lived here exactly at the same period, and consequently the Tees choir, the Clef club choir and all male choirs have suffered from the lack of the same quality of voice the very top fellows. However, a conductor can only make the best of the range of voices at his disposal the counter tenor is apparently becoming more und more extinct in the local world and George H. Trice, the conductor, must be congratulated upon his Intelligent Interpretation of the various selections. Ilia men were thoroughly In erfrnest and sang with splendid vim and some fine shading, with the result that the audience expressed the 'appreciation genuinely due conductor and chorister. There was a splendid array of Individual local artists, headed by that fine veteran singer and president of the club, Watkln Mills.

The noted basso was in excellent voice and received a rousing reception. The notice "no encores" saved him from further effort, and this remark applies to many other artists. In the order in which they sanJamee Isherwood, Roy W. Wydeman, W. Davidson F.

H. Hughes, and Wallace Anderson each met with a warm welcome. John Waterhouse, violinist, In conjunction w-ith the composer, L. T. S.

Norrls-Elye, presented "Serenade Pathetlque," two movements, a worthy composition, demonstrating again the function and scope of the club. Another beautiful string feature of the program was the playing of the quartette, John Waterhouse, A. Scott. O. 11.

Williams and W. Maurice Miles. The string quartette is a form of music all too little, heard In this city. Let us hope Mr. Waterhouse and his confreres will tako to heart the manifest appreciation of the public and continue their most commendable and valuable work.

Mr. Miles' 'cello selection was on of the pronounced successes of the evening. He Is one of the very busy established professionals whose playing never trrowg old. Arnold Pnnn, in Weber's "Concertstuck," for solo, piano and orchestra Stanley Osborne at the second piano playing the orchestra. part rounded out the program In masterly style.

The selection made a strong appeal to tho audience. And now a closing word In praise of the accompanists. Stanley Osborne and F. Ho.tchklss Osborne. They performed their respective tasks admirably.

The dual purpose of giving enjoyment to the public nnd doing a bit In tho war was accomplished with much success by the Men's Musical club.
