Puzzled with MAZES and perplexed
with erlOr."
So wrote the gentle Addison and so
may it we'll be said of the ways of one
of the chief attractions of the Plaza
Fete which will be held in the plaza
I Thul cday afternoon and evening, un-
der the auspices of the Woman S
Board of Trade. The name maze"
+ has been appropriately given to this
attraction, and it will occupy one of
Frarl. Owen as the "spieler" to talk
to the crowd and lure the unsuspect-
ing victims in the meshes of the maze,
its success is bound to be amazing.
The ways of the maze, however, will
not be dark, although they will be in
tricate and perplexed with error (of
those who do not understand the
paths) for Mr.. Owen, as manager of
the Santa Fe Water and Light Com
pany will see TO it that myriads of
electric lights will cast a gentle glow
over the amazing enigma. Scores of
W0Tkmen have been out in the woods
+ SGtling trees and shrubbery to make
the interior mechanism of the maze as
intricatesas possible and to add to the
amusement of those who think they
can walk the narrow paths to heaven.
The heaven in question will be found
tie maze and will contain prizes for
the elect who win out by persever.
ance and good judgment. The unde-
serving and easily discouraged NOR
tails will be finally escorted back to
earth by Virgil Owen.
Splendid Music.
| Arrangements have been made to
! provide an orchestra of seven pieces
and a stream of heavenly melodies
will pour forth afternoon and evening
especially heavenly in the evening
! for then dance will be on. A special
pavilion will be erected in one tri'
angle for this dance and the admis,
sion fee for each dance is 10 cents
This precaution will allow people
who are afraid of the altitude to keeI
check on their gyrations, and wher
they have spent dollar or half g
dollar they will remember how many
dances they have figured in. Mayor
| Seligman will be grand master of the
dance and will announce by the tintin
nabulation of silver bell, when q
new silver coin is to be deposited with
the cashier.
Yes, there will be all that, "and lots
more" to be announced tomorrow.
The fete is an annual affair, as resi-
dents here know, and is for the bene
fit of the Woman's Board of Trade
the proceeds being expended partly
for the library and for improvements
and worthy causes.
