Hoosier Male Quartette

              HOOSIER MALE QUARTETTE
WHEN THE FROST IS ON THE PUNKIN AND THE FODDER’S IN THE SHOCK
Introduction
HOOSIER    MALE    QUARTET
A Group of talented and cultured young men experienced in the Lyceum work, and capable of putting on a program of superior quality. Discriminating committees will find by a careful consideration of the personnel of the company, that they are not beginners, but formerly members of other prominent quartets. The characteristic feature of the program that they render is their ensemble singing, which shows careful training and sympathetic blending of voices. Each member is a soloist of more than ordinary ability. Their repertoire is varied and extensive, including classical, oratorio, sacred, popular and humorous selections.  Combined they make an excellent company, and we heartily recommend them to the public, believing that they will meet the highest expectations.

Personally, I am greatly interested in the Lyceum movement, and for this reason I am glad that the Hoosier Male Quartet has decided to give their time entirely to the work of entertaining the public. All classes will be inspired as well as entertained by these talented young men. They possess unusual good voices, and I predict for them a successful future.

Committeemen desiring a male quartet on their Lyceum Course or Chautauqua, should ask for the "Hoosieis". They are great singers and gentlemen of the highest rank. By presenting their program in an informal way, they keep the audience inter¬ested and guessing during the entire evening.    "Come again."

MR. FRANCIS PERKINS, basso, holds a diploma from one of the strong¬est musical conservatories in Michigan.
