THE OSTRICH FEATHER
 As EASTER GIFT
Two Special Reasons Why They Should Be Secured At 8alke's Big
 Curio Store.

The time is here for Easter gifts. The place to get them is at Balke's Big Curio Store and the thing to get is an ostrich plume. There is no more appropriate gift for ones wife, sister or sweetheart or for the wife. sister or sweetheart of somebody else. The os- trich feather cannot fail to please. It is not only appropriate but is siso most serviceable, lasting and will always be highly prized and for years tho donor will be held in grateful remembrance
 The Big Curio store holds out spec ial inducements. In the first place, the prices are the lowest; they have al- ways been lower at the Big Curio Store than anywhere else for the reason that the ostrich plume department has been conducted for advertising purposes rather than for profit. Now that the closing out sale is in full blast. these exceptionally low prices for ostrich feathers have been still further reduced.
 That is one advantage. Another is that the Big Curio Store handles only the highest grade of the native Arizona ostrich feathers winch the government experts have pronounced to be the best in the world. Here is a combination of circumstances of which intending purchasers will surely avail themselves.

sion of the school of music. Miss Car oline Reed Thompson, head of that de-
 partmerft, is stage director of the
 troupe. and the excellent manner in
 which the various players took their
 parts last evening is anes violence
 of her ability in that line.
 Comic, whimsical and even farcial in
 places The Time of His Life" is a
 play that offers an excellent vehicle
 for the talents of such a company as
 Miss Thompson has organized. It is
 one of the most successful plays ever
 presented. ranking well up with Con
 fusion and Why Smith Left Home" Following is the cast of characters in
 the order in which they appear:
 Uncle Tom.' a negro servant. ....' ............... Fred Henshaw
 Mrs. Gray ......H Helen VenderdoeS Tom Carter ..... Chester SiXsmith
 Mrs. Wycombe ...........D Doeia Peden
 Peter Wycombe .....John Armstrong Dorothy Landon Lydia Wright
 James Landon .. Harold Pemberton Bob Gray ..... Robert Anderson Officer Hogan Paul Mccoy Whatever plot there is centers around
 an unexpected visit by Mir. and Mrs. Wycombe to MT. and Mrs. Gray while the Grays' servant, Uncle Tom. has
 gone tO a cake walk. MT WycOmbe is prince of pessimists" and dyspeptic. He cannot eat restaurant :cOd, but what are. .the Grays to do with no ser want? Finally they decided to order a restaurant dinner sent in and take chances. Mrs. Gray's brother. Tom Carter makes mn like I-ncIe Tom to serve it. Then the real Uncle Tom
 returns unexpectedly and there are two in the house Mir Wycombe sees the
 two at once and attributes it to his in- digestion. The real Uncle Ton leaves again and the police are called upon to find him. Then the fake Uncle Tom goes on the street without changing
 his makeup and is arrested by Officer Hogan for the real one. The misun- derstandings and deceptiOns get every one into a terrible mixup, but. of
 course, it all comes out right in the end.
 From every standpoint the perfor-
 nance at Glendale last evening was
 satisfactory but there will be several more rehearsals before the play is ut
 on here and the presentation will be as near perfect as possible. Tickets
 are being sold rapidly by the members
 Of the senior class and there is every indication that The Time of His Life will be enjoyed by one of the largest
 audiences ever assembled at the School of Music. Music will be furnished by the sStuchal orchestra, which also played last night at Glendale.

GAME WITH LEH|GH
GEORCET0WN'S GOAL
Nielsen and Gargan Given
Credit for Blue and Gray's
Great Showing.

With the victory Of the Virginia game
we'll tucked away in the belts OF the
Georgetown University foot ball warriors.
and all the men in their best possible
shape, the next and hardest problem that
confronts the Blue and Gray coaches is
to keep the Hilltop gladiators in good con-
dition and not have them stale for
the Lehigh game on Thanksgiving day.
In accordance with this fact the squad
over Rock creek Will be put through very
light work all this week, and the varsity
eleven in all probability will not be kept
in the lineup for over two periods Of
Saturdays game with the University Of
Maryland.
If Georgetown succeeds in winning the
Lehigh game a week from Thursday this
season will be without doubt the most
successful one that the Blue and Gray
University has ever had on the gridiron
Although the West End squad commenced
work early in the fall with the most like
Unlocking men that have ever been on .
the credit for the showing that the HILL
toppers have made rightly belongs to
Coach Nielsen and Assistant Coach Gar
gan. These two men have at all times
worked for the welfare Of the team as
a whole, and picked It purely from
the merits of the candidates. letting
nothing else influence them In their final
decision Of who would represent the West
Enders The truth Of this fact can easily
be seen by looking at the showing that
the local collegfans have already made
Tor their college. as nothing but George
towns best eleven could tie the Army
and defeat Virginia There may have
been seemingly stronger candidates for
certain positions on the Blue and Gray
team at times during the season. but the
big factor in foot ball Is team work, aud
the most likely reason for the choice
that Coach Nielsen made was that he
found that the present varsity eleven was
the best working machine that could
possibly be nodded together from the
material that presented itself for this
years team. The coach OF a team Is
always the best Judge OF the merits Of q
| man. and in nearly every instance Il will
| that he has done what was best for hia
team, and all Of the Blue and Gray foot
| ball followers will have to take of their
| hats to Nielsen. for he has most certainly
done great things for Georgetown. Tying

| look very bad.
