An audience of about one hundred and fifty ladies and gentlemen attended Mr. Jacob Knott’s entertainment at Bethesda Church, December 24th, which consisted of recitations and dialogues. All did remarkably well according to age and opportunity, hence it is not necessary to make mention of the programme, and the boys and girls will please accept a compliment. Mr. Knott’s energy and ability were gratifying to all in the audience. Prof. J. S. Renner’s music class furnished the music for Mr. Knott, which added considerably to the entertainment. Miss Annie Moler, Miss Maggie Hendricks and Mr. Jacob Knott sang a trio entitled “Behold”, which was excellent. Miss Jennie Knott and Miss Rose Knott, in “In The Starlight,” a duet, displayed budding talent. The latter possesses musical gifts in power, tone and melody, and could, with high opportunity, be a star in the musical constellation. Miss Gertie Thompson pleased all, so did Miss Mary Moler. Miss Emma Osborne, Miss Cora Caton and Miss Clara Lamar. The advancing culture in the singing of Mr. Milton Skinner, Mr. Jacob Reinhart and Mr. Bun Knott was favorably perceived. VIOLETS.
