A town on its own line is one of the directory's headings. That is where the town on a maker's page comes from.
1gard to the weather, but amiable and enthusiastic notwithstanding.
3George Crampton, baritone and member of the Bush Conservatory faculty, is filling an engagement at the Mother Chautauqua, in New York.
5Miss Emily Parsons, pupil of that splendid artist and instructor, Mrs. Regina Watson, has started on her way rejoicing for a holiday in California. Miss Parsons is head of the piano department of the Rockford College.
7Mr. and Mrs. Bruno Steindel are spending the summer months at Lake Delavan, taking a much needed and well deserved rest.
9That the distinguished artist, Herr Felix Heink, will be associated with the Chicago Auditorium Conservatory is generally known, but that he will devote his entire time to the department of interpretation of this institution will perhaps be an item of news to many.
11The second in the series of recitals given by the American Conservatory for the benefit of the summer pupils occurred Monday morning in Kimball Hall. The program was given by Miss Mabel Goodwin, soprano, member of the faculty; Miss Ella Mills, pupil of Mr. Hattstaedt, and Howard Eis, violinist. There will be a third recital Monday morning, the 13th, at 11 o'clock.
13Robert Stevens, formerly of the piano department of the Chicago Auditorium Conservatory, has severed his connection with that school to become director in the College of Music at Boulder, Col.
15E. M. Latimer, director of the North Shore Musical Club, has recently organized a choral club in Belvidere, Ill., which met with splendid artistic and financial success at its first concert, June 26.
17The last recital given by Mrs. Herbert Butler's pupils was particularly interesting and satisfactory. The following program was given:
18I Would That My Love………………………………………Mendelssohn

20Serenade………………………………………………………..Nevin
21Mrs. Francis Larson.
22Swallows………………………………………………………..Cowen

43Miss Isabelle Howell.
45Mrs. Butler's work is well known in the city and stands for earnestness in ambition, careful study and an interpretation that pleases and satisfies. That the pupils should evidence the same fine effects is but a natural consequence, and that they do work to these ends was splendidly demonstrated throughout the recital. Every number was a pleasure. Miss Isabelle Howell was particularly satisfying, possessing as she does a soprano of beautiful quality and an interpretation that suggests an unusual aptitude for thought and study. A brilliant future is prophesied for Miss Howell in the professional world.
47Berg Golden Wedding Celebration.
49ALBERT WILHELM BERG, the venerable organist and composer, and his wife celebrated their golden wedding, Tuesday, July 7. In the afternoon at 3 o'clock the aged pair, their children and grandchildren and guests attended a special thanksgiving service in St. Paul's Chapel, corner Broadway and Vesey street, where the original marriage ceremony was performed fifty years ago by the late Rev. Dr. Benjamin I. Haight. The services Tuesday of last week were conducted by the Rev. Robert Morris Kemp, assisted by the Rev. Olin S. Roche, rector of St. Peter's Church. The musical program included a wedding march and "Te Deum," composed by Mr. Berg. At the conclusion of the service Mendelssohn's "Wedding" March was played. A family dinner and reunion followed at the Berg residence, 356 West Twentieth street.
51Mrs. Berg was Miss Helen McGregor Morse, of distinguished English and Puritan ancestry. When she married Mr. Berg the New York city limits ended at Union square, and Mr. Berg was regarded as the leading music teacher. He taught the Schermerhorns, Cuttings and other old New York families. Mr. Berg came to the United States with his parents in boyhood. Later he was sent to Paris to complete his education. When he returned to New York he brought with him a small piano said to belong to one of the governors of the Bastile, and this instrument is still on exhibition in the Berg home.
53Four of Mr. and Mrs. Bergs' five children are living. They are Miss Lillie d'Angelo Berg, the singer and vocal teacher; Albert Ellery Berg, Louis De Cappet Berg and Walter Gilman Berg.
55Mr. and Mrs. Ober-Hoffer.
57MR. AND MRS. OBER-HOFFER, of Minneapolis, Minn., left, July 4, on the Kroonland for Antwerp. They will visit Germany, France, England and Ireland.
