One of the most beautiful pageants ever given in this city was presented at Recreation . park Tuesday evening bv_the Windham Girls' club, with the aid of several other local societies. The pageant was titled The Story of ‘Windham and showed the history from the time of the purchase of the land up to the forces at home at the present ime. 3 The weather was ideal for such an event, and although it was half an hour late in starting, the light was strong enough to witness it to the finish, Preceding the starting of the pageant, Wheeler's American band of this city gave a band concert. The exhibition was staged on the infield of the baseball diamond. Screeny containing brush had been erected and dry grass was scattered over the dirt. The setting sun over the hills formed a .fine background against the brilliant costumes. ‘About 2,000 people attended the pageant, crowding the grandstand and overflowing on to the bleachers, and several hundred standing up. Two of- ficers were present to keep order, but were not needed, as everybody was impressed with the spectacle, in which about 500 ‘took part. Each episode was announced by the four pages with bugles. At 7.45 the processional started. Headed by four young ladies, attired in yellow flowing gowns, with trum- pets at their lips, the mistress of cere- monies, Miss Alice Jones, who rode on a small pony, was escorted tp her throne. She was preceded by flower girls who were clothed in dresses of yellow and green, and they strewed flowers in her path. There were also several pages and attendants. This part of the ceremony was undertaken by the children of St. Joseph's school under the direction of Mrs. A. W Turner. The first episode was an allegorical representation of the invitations .of the woods, fields and rivers extended to the pioneer settlers, Children of | Natchaug and Windham street schools, clothed in white, performed intricate dance steps and turns. Eight teachers also took part. This episode was di- rected by Dennis Clifford. Ten young ladies, barefoot, and clothed in brilliant flowin roges, danceq in the grass, giving the alle- gorical representation of the invitation given the settlers by nature.

About 40| vouns ladies who are employed in the | hite dresses and gay colored sweaters. ch held one end of a colored thread which was attached to a large wheeél and performed several fancy steps. The fifth episode was the most pic- turesque and was entitled Willimantic and Its Wars e first part showed the Spirit of '76, with two drummers and a fifer, clothed in tatters of uni- forms of the time. In the center of the stage they played Yankee Doodle. The second part portrayved the Civil war. Several members of the Homej guard, wearing blue overcoats, pitch- ed a dog tent in the center of the stage and, after stacking their guns, | lay in the yrass and sang Tenting| Tonight. At this time it was just commencing to become dusk and the picture was impressed on all, as at- tested by the silence. Undoubtedly maiy thought of friends now in France in similar conditions. The last part! of this episode showed the spirit of today, entering a new struggle. Miss Frances TFarrell, who wore a white flowing gown, with the American flag | thrown over her shoulders and wouné | about her, carried a service flag, afd | she was accompanied by a soldier and a sailor. They stood at attention in the center of the stage while the band | played There's a Long, Longz Trail. The sixth and last episode showed the forces at work at home now and was given under the direction of Miss Dorothy Larrabee. The Windham Girls’ = Club, . “Willimantic’'s Bat- talion of Death” gave an exhibi-| tion drill and received ovations on the | conclusion of special military drills. After they had performed all of the military movements they drew up at the back of the staze, two deep, and | some of the local Red Cross, attired in pure white, formed on their right and the Y. M.
