THE ORPHEUS QUARTET

Mr. Len Barnes and his talented associates, who are to provide the vocal portion of Saturday eévening’s programme, will give a trio of melodious quartets. ‘Awake Aeolian Lyre," by Dandy, is qa very old number. Its alluring strains are suggestive of sparkling streams, laughing flowers, verdant vales, and the myriad beauties with which this old world is so bountifuily adorned "The Pedlar’’ is an old English song, and ‘Juanita’? is so well known as to need no comment. Mrs. Harris and Mr. Len Barnes will sing "The Dancing Honeymoon," from "Pattling Butler." This is a clever

fox-trot number, said to have been # favourite with the Prince of Wales. "Flow On, Thou Shining River,’ will be sung by Messrs. Coe and Barnes, and listeners will recognise it as another old number well worthy of repetition because of its beauty. Mr. Len Barnes will sing the duet, "Coun. try Lad,’’? from ‘‘I’om Jones," a great number descriptive of the wishes of the Somerset jad-a horse, a gun, a girl. Mr. Coe sings "Beloved, It is Morn,’? Miss Mackie ‘Just a Wearvyin’ For You," and Mrs. Harris ‘Sink, Red Sun." Tune iu to a delightful evening.
