FAIRY OPERA
Presented Capabiy by Children OF
This City. Proves to be a
Delightful: PLAY.
And Is Greatly Enjoyed by Those in
Attendance. The Plot in Brief
And the Program in Full.

- hi'S
ing fairy spectacular play was
presented at the Jefferson
Theatre last Thursday night, by
a number of children of Lafa-
yette to a small but appreciative
audience. The presentation of
the play was given under the
direction of Mr.. and Mrs. H. H.
DonohoO, whose careful and eX-
cellent training was shown by
the successful manner in which
the delightful little opera was
given. All of the children per-
formed their parts well and
both the solos and chorus
greatly pleased the audience.
The opening scene of the
opera presented the entire cast.
The children wore lovely cos
tunes in various colors and the
combination of color, artistic
dress and charming little folks
made a beautiful scene. The
entire company appeared a num-
Der of times during the play and
was each time pleasing.
The plot of the play is simple
and in brief is that White,
a beautiful princess, is hated by
her step mother who can not
bear the idea that anyone in the
world is more beautiful or be-
loved than she, and she attempts
the life of Snow-White several
times, each time to be frustrated.
Finally after adventures in the
forest where she is driven by
her bad stepnother. she meets a
charming prince who woos and
wins her. The stepmother APP
pears at the wedding festi7a
only to be ordered away by the
prince and the opera closes with
everybody happy but the wicked
queen.
The various parts in the
charming little play were rem.
dered with great credit by the
children, all of whom showed
that there is talent among the
little folks of Lafayette. Below
we give the program in full:
