Los Angeles herald., 1907-09-29

II OCAL society women, as represented
by the membership of The Assistance
- league, are going to present society
vaudeville entertainment at the Mason
opera house Monday night, November 10,
that promises to eclipse all previous per-
formances Of similar character
The vaudeville committee of the league,
consisting of Mrs Randolph Miner, Mrs.
Granville MACEDONIAN and Mrs. Waiter
Newhall, has been actively engaged IN
the preparation Of program that Will
contain a wealth of novel features Tor
the past two months and now that their
work is nearing an end, so far as the
planning Of the program itself is con-
cerned, 1t becomes more apparent tnan
ever that the function will be more than
commonly successful.
The bill will contain the names of about
every person prominent in Los Angeles
society. The different acts that will be
given are already being rehearsed under
the able direction of Edgar Temple, whose
superior stage direction was evidenced
in the work of the Californians at the
Auditorium last spring. Mr.. Temple Is
remarkably enthusiastic over the pros
poets for an entertainment that will APP
proach, If not excel, the professional
stand-rd in the matter of its general ex-
cellence.
day morning at the Behymer ticket office
in Bartletts music store The interest
that has been manifested in the ap-
preaching entertainment is so great tnat
ir Is pretty certain the entire seating
capacity of the Mason wia be disposed
of the first day of the ticket SALE Inc
seats will be sS 81 and 81 each, accord
ing to location, and as but one night at
the Mason is available for the society
;c rao1i1xy annarent that the
demand will more than exceed the supply
of tickets.
The Assistance league was organized
shortly after the San Francisco disaster,
when it became obvious that charitable
organization working along altogetner
different lines than the regularly estap-
lished charitable societies of the city
was urgently needed. A number OIL prom,
fnent society women of the city pandeo
themselves together to further this char
itahle work and their efforts have been
Notably success,ful Their desire to have
an augmented treasury with wnlcn 10
prosecute the enlarged scope Oh tne
iaapueis work resulted in planning the
society vaudeville. Every contributor TO
the big program is making really great
sacrifice not only in the matter OF tne
many hours required for the renearsa,s ~ .
bryt also in the matter of providing MS
or her own costume for the entertain
ynent-and in numerous instances THESE
costumes have been brought from Parls
and London at a cost of hundreds OF
dollars.
