Ma Dusenberry and Her "Gearls "
In the latter amusing after piece,
Miss Sallie Lynn, who is quite a little
actress, was grotesquely dressed as was
her 10 gearls, and she introduced them
and their speclalties to the audience in
most laughable way, The music,
singing and recitations OF the "gearls -
brought down the house, as did the
performances OF the five boys, True
heart Bourne, John Beck, John Shanks,
Ed Hale and Guy Ballou. The whole
was a pleasing finale OF an entertain
ment, meritorious from start to finish.
AT the commencement exercises las I
night the jam was terrific. With an
ordinary seating capacity OF 500 there
must have been 100 or 500 in the Oper a
House, and il was with difficulty that
the graduates and their ushers reached
the stage. Instead OF boys AS hereto
fore young ladies' acted As ushers and
were Misses Sallie Lynn, Nancy New
land, Linda Miller Lita Belle Cash, Ell
Ia Belle Cloyd and Mary II. Bohon. Kit
Huffman and Mary Cooper Penny pre-
ceded the couples down either aisle and
remained on the stage to take the
favors 10 the pretty graduates, who were
clad Ia purest white and sat in semi
circle with DIR. shelton in the middle.
Rev. s. NJ. Rankin invoked the divine
blessing and the following program was
