THE RECITALS

.Fdr the remainder.of this week two recitals daily will be given oil the carillon. Commencing at noon Miss Gladys Watkins will play for twenty minutes, and in the evening,. from 8 o'clock until 8.45, Mr. Clifford Ball will present well;known airs especially suited to the bells. ■

The recital given- last'"evening by Mr. Ball was favoured by good atmospheric conditions, but was marred to a large extent,by the incessant .hooting from motor-cars passing in the vicinity''of the campanile. A large crowd gathered to heat the music, and the programme, which included "Trauinerei," "When Other Lips," and "Come Back', to Erin," was all too short for the de!lighted listeners. - ■' "■ ■
