They marched OH in full battle array
and opened the picnic with jolly
song. Tom Brooke Jr. made his DEBUT.
| He has reason to feel proud of himself.
His trousers were absurdly short and
| his legs to match, but he marched along
with the boys twice his size and never
for an instant betrayed stage fright. He
carried the flag and felt his own impor-
tance keenly. But the cadets were but
half the picnic. The girls were in it,

All were dressed in empire gowns of
soft thin goods, in all the bright colors,
with great picturesque hats and baskets
| of flowers. They danced on and they
danced off, and all through the Operetta
| their feet and hands and eyes and
hearts danced in time to the music,
while gauZy skirts were waved prettily
| and fresh voices rang out happily.
The plot of the operetta is so slight as
| to be hardly visible 10 the naked eye.
The songs are tuneful selections from
various comic operas for the most part,
and were well sung, with action even
better than the singing. The three
dandy cops song quite brought down
the house and was encored. The police
| men all through the operetta were as
funny as funny conld be.
Miss Sadie Murphy, in pretty blue
gown, was surprisingly good both IN
vnice and action. Her duet with
Frank Fisk. Under the Old
Umbrella" was encored. and when
she sang This Little Pig Must
to Market" the audience was delighted.
Miss May Gritfiths, in pink, won several
encores. Her rendition of ''Oh, How
Delightful' was delicate and artistic.
Miss Helen Gooch's bright voice and
clever acting won for her the hearts of
the audience. Charlie Heberhart was
all that could be desired.
