PLAY IN ROYRLTY
Continued from First Pase.)

Tokio'-who brought Cinderella into fame
last year, was the able director Of dances.
He was ably assisted by a committee
headed by Mrs, w. A. Paxton, jr. From
the assembling of the Japaneses, the first
number on the program, TO the final CO.
t%lllion, Directors Chambers showed himself
the master OF the dance. Every number
was performed with perfect grace. The
little children carried out every figure,
many Of them intricate and complicated,
without an error. The various dances of
the nations, given on the stage by groups
Of dancers in typical costumes, were heart
lily applauded.
One Of the most spectacular scenes was
the Japanese dance and tea. Spotlights
were brought into play, giving a pleasing
effect. The girls-hundreds of them-were
seated in groups about the auditorium
when. to the strains Of weird Japanese mu-
sic, the tea maids appeared and served the
delicious beverage to the squattlng guests.
All the dances, the assembly OF the nations
and the various figures, with the music &C
compartment, were arranged by Director
Chambers.

and the little ones danced to their hearts
content. They waltzed and two-stepped
land did the barn dance to the delight Of
themselves and the spectators.
The 1909 Children's day was a success in
every way. The people who paid their yen
or their 80 sen to view the function were
satisfied that they had seen one Of the
p~rettiest children's carnlvals ever pre-
scented in Omaha.
