The operetta, 'sThe Pixies Triumph" :"
given to we'll filed houses in Seaver's hall
both Tuesday and Friday evenings of last
| week by the children of the first seven
grades of the graded. school, was triumph
| In more than one way. 1t was triumph
! for the children, for the teachers who
drilled the children and had charge OF the
| entertainment, and for the Pixies. From
the time the curtain went up the first time
until it dropped for the last time the little
girls seemed in the very spirit of the land
of the fairies they were supposed to repre-

part of the opera. Slayton Lang as the
Pixie King sang and played the clarionet
! in a very pleasing manner, led his Pixy
army into Fairyland in triumph and was
! seated on the throne beside the Fairy
| Queen, Lora Jutras. The queen showed
an exceptionally clear and sweet voice and
sang to the entire satisfaction Of the
audience. The Kings pages, Amile Revoir
and Isadora Depuro, caused good deal OF
| Amusement by their low bows and close
attention to their master. The Queens
maids Of honor, Marjorie Virgins, Flor
ence Hardy and Decima Doyle, were the
smallest fairies, but carried out their part
well. All the other children who took
special parts are to be congratulated on
the manner in which they filed the bill.
| The military drill led by Master Clyde
Cooper showed much practice and was
executed in a manner befitting much older
soldier boys. The fairy drills led by Miss
Clara Underwood were very pretty and
well executed. Much credit Is due Miss
Annie Waite. director of music, and the
Misses Mary Collision and Bessie jerome,
pianists, for the excellent music.
