The Grinnell Concert company was greeted by a fair sized audience in the Methodist church last Tuesday night. They presented a pleasing program which was heartily enjoyed by all present. Mr. Grinnell has a strong baritone voice which he skillfully controls in a masterful manner. Mrs. Grinnell has a strong rich alto and her daughter a well trained soprano of high range. As a trio they will seldom be equaled, their voices blending in a grand chord of sentences. Miss Wright in her readings was well received and her work is certainly that of an artist. She read several selections and every one received flattering applause from the audience - the young men have taken an interest in these entertainments. They seem to have a better judgement of an evening's pleasure than the older ones who fail to support these affairs.
