On the evening of June 1 at the C.I.M. Memorial Hall, Mrs. H. Strausser gave an inspiring and delightful Violin Recital, playing same twelve pieces to a large and ippreciative audience, the pro- gramme being composed of pieces by Schubert, Edward German, Kreisler, and the always popular "Perpetuò mobile" by Bohm. The Mrs. E. P. accompanists were Railton and Mr. I. Chalkley who accompanied the violinist on the piano with their usual ability. During the evening lovely bouquets of roses were pre- sented to both Mrs. Strausser and Mrs. E. Railton by girls from the CLM. Girls' School,
