The net Of sweet charity was not sweet
enough 10 catch a very large crowd for
the production Of Columbia ar the Sc
alta theater Tuesday evening. The.
audience vas not a small one but in view
OF the fact that Charity was responsible
for the production. there could have been
q bigger turnout without injuring the Fe-
ceipts Of the box Office Society was
not Well represented. A society woman
said Z was due 20 the heat: that the the
alter vas not the place for a gathering OF
society people on q hot night in summer
The heat did have something TO do with
the attendance. But the affair was by
no means financial failure AS re-
suit Of the production the Golfers OF the
Childrens Home Society, under whose
auspices Columbia" was given. viii bc
slightly swclled. The presentation OF
Columbia" was all that could be expect
ed. II was a decided success. and one
OF the prestiest things Of its kind that
local theateT-goers have had a chance
Of Witnessing for months. Brain work
and time were required 10 make il n sue
cess. Scenes that were presented should
have had more eyes 10 witness them.
The May-day scene on Boston Common
was something out Of the ordinary. The
modern society girl could have probably
improved her love-maklng By watching
the stage portrait OF the traditional story
Of how Miles Standish made love 10 pretty
Priscilla through his friend. John Alden.
Priscilla was no doubt preSamptuous in
suggesting that Alden speak for himself
but there is a possibility that tradition
y.Fa int ha~
that she NAV not have uttered. The
chances are that Alden spoke for him
self at the start A feature Of the pro-
gramme which received the applause
which II deserved was the dancing Of the
minuet by Miss Leora Conn. Miss Ethel
Cardin. Miss Louise Selden. Miss Bess
IngIis. Mr.. Wycliffe Thompson. Mr.. How
ard Ames, Mr.. Harry Wilkinson and Mr..
Coll Murray.
The patronesses OF the affair were Mrs.
J. E Mcdonald. Mrs. r CarGin. Mrs.
Henry Thurman. Mrs. F. NJ. Conn. Mrs.
W. H. II. Green. Mrs Aldine p. Vim
