POLLY OF THE CIRCUS"
Presented TO Large Audience at The
College.

One of the most enjoyable events oc-
curing in fredericksburg in a long time
took place in the College Auditorium
Friday evening.
Miss Blount. the talented elocutlonlst,
presented in her own inimitable and
charming manner her original adaptation
of the delightful little play, "Polly of
the Circus
A large and appreciative audience
was present and everyone was captlva-
ted with the production of the artist.
With wonderful versatility Miss Blount
presented the various personages con-
nected with the plot. and soon the aud
fence was with her in the midst OF the
troupe, meeting successfully the bare
back riders, the irate manager, the old
clown with his one purpose in life. that
of living for Polly, the ever-changing
Polly; Douglas, the man of convictions.
and then the old negro nanny all OF
whom appear in Miss Blount's work IN
marvellous realism.
In previous appearance Miss Blount
captivated her hearers and on this oc-
casion she strengthened and cemented
the ties of admiration. 1t is hoped that
her appearances before the people OF
Fredericksburg will be frequent, for
each one furnishes another treat.
