The Belfast city hall, although archi turally one of the finest buildings in rope, was hardly adequate for the in- stallation of the parliament. The cou! il chamber, although it contains ample accommodations for the fifty-two mer bers clected to the house (six S ers and six nati who did not ap- pear today having been chosen to the body in addition to the fort: ionists) is hopelessly small when considered from the spectators’ standpoint.

Episodes Deplet Mistory. Tho first episode of the pageant, entitled “One of Our First Families.” showed a group of Nacostine Indizns and Henry Fleet, portrayed by E. J. Ward, ‘first white man to sail up the Potomac. The second episode de- scribed a reception to Marquis de La- fayette in_an old tavern in George- town in 1784. A minuet and a_solo, Drink to Me Only With Thine Eyes,” by Estelle Murray, was ono of the outstanding features of this episode. The next episode showed Francis Scott Key on board a British ship in Baltimore harbor in 1814, composing the “Star Spangled Banner.” This chhracter was presented by Charles B. Hanford, the actor, with dramatic effect. Next was shown “Our Ole Mammy,” the scene beinm in an_ old- time Washington home in 1850, Mary Randolph Dickens taking the part 6f Ole Mammy. e comical hit of the pageant was the fitth episode, entitled “One of the Early Public Schools of Washington,” in which “Sweet Miss Pinkey,” Lula G. Adams, the little teacher, tries in vain to preserve order in her class- room. The next cpisode showed Pres- ident Abraham Lincoln, impersonated by Denis E. Connell, executing hu- manitarian acts while in the White House during the civil war. e seventh episode depicted Alex- ander Shepherd delivering an extract | of his address in 1857 during a great demonstration in his honor when he visited Washington. C.C. Calhoun ap- peared as Gov. Shephérd. The next episode showed Columbia, the fol- lowing episodes showing the coming of the sons of the District who foughi in the wars. the triumphant march of | the forty-eight states, and the spirit of the District making her dramatic appeal for enfranchisement, which was granted unanimously by the state Mabel Wilcox “Columbia.” Mabel Owens Wilcox ably played the | role of Columbia, while the coming | of the sons of the District who fought in the wars in the ninth episode was| represented by a Grand Army veteran, ' a Confederate veteran, a Spanish war veteran, and a soldier, sailor an. a- rine of the world war. e Clarence E.

By that time, in their opinion, the requisily acilities for physical training work will be added to the schools now without them.
