The costumes are all of a striking character, appropriate for #the several chorus numbers. The solo- ists were heard with excellent results and the dances and marching were well executed. Without doubt the hit of the evening was made by the chil- dren, who, as last year, filled the stage, sraduated as to size, and eang two numbers, with Misses Lucille Lord and Gladys Elliot as soloists. The soloists sang in fine voice and the children joined in the chorus in The Voodoo Man with pleasing effect. In the Lan- ky Yankee Boys in Blue they waved flags, making an attractive ~feature. None the less pleasing were the picka- ninnies who kept the audience wild with laughter during their number of song and recitations. As the ranch owner, Dr. Clarence B. Capron made a royal host, entertaining many interesting characiers at his home. sJames P. Sheridan as Arizona Pete, the foreman, struck terror to the hearts of the tenderfeet, while Philip Sheridan as Mike Rafferty and Charles E. Case as Dusty Rhodes, the latter arrlving in an auto, entertalned with their dialect jokes and repartee. Clar- ence Messinger as Ikey Einstein and J. J. C. Stone as Fritz Bummelhelmer were fine, both as to makeup and im- personation.
