CHILDREN
IN A PLAY
Little Tots Tell the Story Of
Cinderella
IN SONG AND DANCES
Rich Costumes and Beautiful
Scenery are features.

The first presentation Of the fairy ex-
uavaganza. Cinderella. under the aus
pices Of the Episcopal church, and under
the direction Of Mr.. Harry Miller. was
given at the Crawford tbeater last night
to larger audience than has ever greet
e. The first night of d home talent pro
drction.
The performance was received with
great enthusiasm by the audience, who
really seemed delighted with the produc-
ton While it is an amateur show from
the fact that all the participants are
Wichita children, it IS under the direction
OF a competent and professional stage
director, and can not be called anna
teurish With the exception OF slight
tendency to drag in the last act. there
vas nothing whatever to suggest the
slightest room for criticism. The stage
full of little people did splendidly and
their efforts to please found ready re-
sronse with the audience. Those in
charge of the enterprise have every
reason to feel elated over the success
Of II. and deserve generous patronage
from the people u - 4N44ANoF ~ ''---

The curtain arose last night on setting
and a fairy scene of exquisite beauty.
The costumes and stage accessories, with
electrical ard calcium effects, presented a
really gorgeous spectacle. Miss Aileen
Houston, as the Fairy Queen, acquitted
herself in a charming manner. Her de-
livery, gestures and stage presence were
particularly good. Miss Ora Bert as
Cinderella. was also especially good in
her role, and partook Of the same quail
ties in her work IS Miss Houston. In
fact. all the characters of the play who
figure in this old-tiEne beloved fairy tale
we're well presented. The two sisters of
Cinderella. well portrayed by Miss Bessie
Apologize and Katherine Miles, were es-
p,cially pleasing IN their parts.

CHURCH is
DEDICATE
UnitarianS Hold First Services
in New EdifCe.
VERY ABLE ADDRESS
Was Delivered by Rev. c. {.
St. John of Boston.

Under the most auspicious circum-
stances the First Unitarian church Of
Wichita was formally launched upon its
career for good last night The church
building has Just been completed, the
pews have not yet arrived and there are
some small bits Of painting TO be done.
Seats were provided for the members and
friends of the church and every seat
was taken. It was a most delightful
evening and the exercises were interest
ing. Rev. c. E. St. John is a very en-
pertaining speaker, the singing was high
class and everything moved along as
smoothly as could be desired.
For years the members Of the Unfair
ian church Of this city have longed for a
building Of their own. Although the
members are but a few hundred. what
the congregation lacks in numbers is
more than equalized by the enthusiasm
displayed. For months. even years the
ministers and members have worked TO
raise the funds necessary for tire pur-
chase Of ground and the building. Al
though at times the members almost
S~fS up i4yBt, lliEA4 NDiA was lltLsAlAs
completed and today the Unitarians
have a most beautiful, convenient and
substantial edihce.
The services last night were opened
by the organ voluntary by Miss Lalage
Hall, followed by the Invocation by the
Rev. DR.. Sargent Of the Plymouth Con-
gregatonal church. Rev. c. Z W. Cos
SOW read a scripture selection and Rev.
{. z. St. John Of Boston, Mass, secre-
tary OF the Unitarian society, offered
Inc prayer of dedication.
The chorus choir under the direction
Of Mrs. Hubert Chnde rendered some
very fine selections during the exercises.
kew. ". s Vail. the present pastor Of
the congregation, read some selections
which We're responded 10 by the congre-
cation. These Sentences Of dedication
were printed on q sheet Of paper and dis
tTibuted over the hall.
Following this responsive reading the
congregation, led by the choir. sang the
hymn written by William Cullen Bryant
at the dedication of an eastern Unitarian
church. The song. splendid in its very
simplicity, serves but to bind the mem
hers OF the church more closely together
and links together the man and God.
Rev. C Z. St. John delivered the dedi-
catory sermon. He selected as his sub
5ect. The Household of God" drawing
his lesson from the Nineteenth and TWEEN

tieth verses OF the second chapter of
Ephesians He claimed that the house
hold OF God was not limited by sectar-
ianisn but embraced all people Of all
countries and all worlds God in his
wisdom created the world and its in
habitants. and in doing this intended
that the soul Of man should ultimately
be gathered together in his house. The
minister believed THAI it was the pur-
pose of the different churches to encour-
age good fellowship and bring together
the men and women of the world
Through one church It was almost i'm
possible to do this, but through many
churches with one great belief and one
aim a larger percentage of men would
be brought before God.
He recited many instances of how peo-
pie had refused to so nto a church, these
persons claiming hypocrisy was prac-
ticed by some OF the members. The min
lister believed that it was a wrong idea
70 charge a church organization or its
members with such a thing when it was
probable that but a few could or should
be SO charged. 1t matters little to
me-, said he ito what church man

YOU can do the most good. where You

He explained that the great difference
between the Unitarians and the other
churches was that the former church be
