Local Performers Get Away
With GoodsIn Musical Comedy

Musical comedy with its clever Choir
uses, charming songs, and breezy COM
edy is always delightful. To see young
folks at play, especially FL Paso young
folks. is equally delightful To have
both combined in one rollicking play
is indeed a treas. That was what the
Ell Paso Shriners offered Friday even
I ing at the FL Paso in "A Night in Be-
hernia" 1t was offered by FL Mazda
temple and was accepted by the audi
ence which filled the theater with the
enthusiasm which is seldom shown at
amateur attempts.
Amateur in its freshness and lack of
the threadbare tricks of the profess
sionals, but professional in its well
drilled choruses and character parts,
"A Night in Bohemia" was an agreea BILE
surprise to the audience and was as
satisfying as many of the New York
productions "A Night in Bohemia" is
truly Bohemian offering, for If is
veritible welsh rarebit of catchy songs
dainty little dances ana a breezy COM
edy between times.
The Real Hits.

painting, and Oakley Sharpe, as swag
.

applause They were assisted Dy
chorus of "a young persons. all well
known FL Paso girls and boys, with
Harry Ogg, Fred Hewitt, o. L. jean
con. r. H. Smith, and c. A Bailey fur
nfshing the fun that was squeezed in

When Oakley Sharpe and Marguerite
Darbyshire did their clever singing and
dancing sketch in the first part they
were cheered repeatedly and were
forced to dance until they were out of
breath. and then dance some more.
Miss Laura Maude Fink and her
Yankee Doodle" song and the pony
ballet assisting Harry Ogg in his
''Hinkee Dee" song. Were as well re-
ceived as the initial dancing sketch.
