and Mr, Henry T.F : ; ; inck, the musical critic of the New York Post, said: \u201cIt is as perfect in its way as the Boston Symphony Orchestra.\u201d It is estimated that within three weeks, at the five concerts in Toronto, one in Buffalo, and two in New York, this Choir will have sung to twenty-five thousand people.Its great success is attributed to the musicianly ability, energy and tact of Mr.A.8S.Vogt, who has been its conductor since its organization ten years ago. 2 THE STANDARD, MONTREAL, CANADA.CANADIAN CURLING CHAMPIONS OF 1907\u2014The two rinks, one from the Thistle Club, skipped by Mr.David Kinghorn, and the second from the St.Lawrence Club, skipped by Mr.David Guthrie, that went to Utica this year and defeated their opponents, playing granites, returning to Montreal with the famous Gordon Medal, worn by Skip Kinghorn, standing fifth from the left of the picture.CANADIAN CURLING CHAMPIONS OF 1907.HE accompanying illustration is the reproduction of a photograph especially taken for The Standard.The group, reading from left to right, includes:\u2014Mr.W.D.Aird, secretary of the Canadian Branch of the Royal Caledonian Society, who accompanied the rinks to Utica;
