DELIGHTFUL TREAT
Recital at Seminary Hall Amply
Rewarded Those WhoBraved
The Storming Elements.
A deplorably small audience at
tended the recital given by the
Misses Olson and Miss Walden at
the Seminary Hall last evening.
The weatherman was peihaps more
to blame for this than anything
else, for he persisted in keeping the
temperature so far below the freez
ing point that people did not feel
disposed to leave their firesides.
Those who did attend, however,
were amply repaid for their brav
ing the elements, for the recital
proved to be one of the most de
lightful treats ever extended to
Willmar people. The program was
varied and selected with an evi
dence of art and good taste. Al
tho playing under difficulties, Miss
Alice Walden gave a sympathetic
interpretation of the composers
whose productions comprised her
numbers, and she proved herself
possessed of a good deal of tech
nical skill. Miss Eleonora Olson,
the mezzo-soprano, was in good
voice and sang her numbers with
spirit and feeling. She proved
especially delightful in her last
group of songs, "Mot Kveld," by
Grondahl, "E Elsker Dei Voggan
de Tonar," by Lepsoe, and the old
but ever new and ever mjlodious
"Norwegian Mountain Echo Song"
by Thrane.
One cannot give an adequate ap
preciation of Miss Ethel Olson, the
reader and impersonator. S he
must be seen and heard to be ap
preciated. Miss Olson is peculiar
ly fitted by temperament to im
personate. She changes from one
mood to another with marvelous
rapidity and effectiveness, and she
makes every one of her impersona
tions stand out by itself in a man
ner so vivid and clear that one al
most forgets that she is only "mak
ing believe." A Willmar audience
has probably never heard anything
quite so deliciously funny as her
"Norwegian Lady at the Telephone
for the First Time." It was more
than a hit, it was to use the vernac
ular, a "stunner," and Miss Olson
had to respond to a most enthusi
astic call for an encore.
It is to be hoped that Willmar
will again at some future time
have the pleasure of attending a
concert-recital gven by the sa.ne
talent, and it is safe to say that
upon the next appearance here they
will be greeted by a full house.
Judge Nordin returned home
Monday evening from Minneapolis,
where he had attended a meeting

Bishop. The committee decided to
call another meeting some time in
February, and in the meantime as
certain the concensus of opinion in
