The audience was not AS large by
half as it should have peen. both from
the excellent character of the program
and the cause for which it was arrang-
cd. There were probably 500 people in
the hall. whereas the hall should have
been crowded to the doors.
The band gave a fine concert from
the opening to the closing number and
responded frequently with encores.
The minute tablcaux and poem was
very pretty number. Mrs. Harry
Richards read a poem and then Miss
Auth Richards and Howard Corning
danced the minuct in costume as de-
scribed in the dance.
Master Harry BeIyea sang 'C;low
Worm." in a pleasing manner and re-
sponded with an encore. The dwarf
dance was certainly n surprise and ex-
tremely original
The butterfly dance by the two little
girls from Augusta was probably the
hit of the evening. These two little
misses are but seven years of age and
theN gave dance of pretty numbers
and steps which would tax the limit
of adults.
Miss Jessie Smith in her monoioguc
"BabblinE Bess" told all she knew
about the gongs on in her family and
then she bahblod secrets about a num-
her of wcll-known men of the city
Her number was another hit
Mention should be made of the Shep-
herdcss dance by the six young Gar
diner misses. They were dressed in APP
propriate costumes and did their dance
extremely well. Miss Harvey of Bath
arranged the dances and drilled the
members in their parts.
y feature of the evening was the
