EASTER GAMES

~HE people Of Holland are not
much given to change, and II
you should chance to visit some
| Of the eastern provinces about Easter
time you would find the children Of
the peasantry following some of the
old customs that have been in practice
for hundreds Of years.
One is called the palm Paschen,'
which really means Palm Sunday, and
for a whole week before Easter the
boys and girls 60 from house to house
begging for eggs.
They sing as they w: AIRY the
palm paschen, a lon1, u with a
green wreath on the eud. in their
hands. These are the words of their
song:
Palm, Palm Sunday!
Eei koeerei!
fT Soon it will be Easter,
And we shall have an egg
One egg, two eggs.
The third egg Is the Easter egg
They knock at every farmhouse and
are very seldom sent away empty
handed.
When they have collected as many
eggs as they wish they boil them hard,
stain them brown with coffee or red
with beet root juice, and when Easter
day comes they carry these eggs to the
meadows and play what they call the
"Eiert1kken."
This game consists Of sitting on the
grass In a circle, each child knocking
bis egg against that Of the child next
to him or her. 1t Is usually done 50
that only one egg Is broken, and the
owner of the whole egg Is winner Of
the broken one.
The game ends when there are no
more eggs to break. ....-..
Another Easter game played in the
Netherlands on Easter Monday Is call
ed the "Eiergaader." For this the inn
keeper provides the eggs. He, with all
the people, go to the village green,
where the eggs-perhaps twenty-five In
number-are placed at equal distances
along the road. The distance between
each is about twelve feet
In the middle Of the road is tub of
water, in which floats the largest apple
to be found. Two men are chosen.
One with his arms tied behind his back
must eat the floating apple to the last
bit before the other picks up, while
running, all the eggs and arranges
them In q basket.
The one who finishes his task first
is the winner and has the eggs for
prize.
You can imagine the fun they have
with the man who tries to eat the ap-
pie.
The egg dance is pretty custom.
which may still be seen in some parts
Of rural Switzerland.
A number Of eggs. perhaps hui
dred, are scattered over level space
and covered with sand Then a cou-
pie, taking hands, dance over them,
and If they can finish the measure
without breaking an egg they are be-
trothed, and not even the most obdu-
rate parent can separate them.

"KNIcKERBocKERs" GIVE
oAYER ASPECT TO GAYETY

Melodious comedy of the gayest
and liyeliest kind is to be seen at the
Gayety Theatre this week in Robes
Knicl1erbockers.
The comedians have ample scope
for their flln-making in the two-act
farce entitled, "Casey the Porter"
Roger Imhof. who plays the title
part, gets every possibility from the
breezy Irish part.
Imhof is well supported by others IN
the quick moving comedy. There Is
Doris Thayer, who scored a hit last
night with two songs, Everybody
Two-Step" and 'Bumble Bee Miss
Evelyn Carson, Miss Kitty Gebhardt.
Miss Allie Vivian, Max Fehrman. jrs
Irving Walton and Jack West do their
share creditably in the cast.
Many specialties have been intro
duced, and the musical part Of the
program is most attractive. Besides
the regular matinee and evening per-
formances today, a special midnight
New Years eve performance will be
given. It will duplicate the regular
show, and the curtain will rise at
1880 o'clock.

by this pair, still hold their popular
favor. Two new musical numbers
have been added by the managemef1t,

Of a rich and penurious uncle. be-
comes a millionaire in the town OF
New Rochelle. just forty-five minutes
from Broadway by rail. In the belief
that he is Immensely wealthy, young
Bennett starts to spend the money In
a lavish manner His career e. 8
good fellow''is cut short. however, by
his friend, Kid Burns. who, after
sticking to him through thick and
thin, when in adverse circumstances,
is rewarded by being made secretary.
The kids devotion TO his pal IL
overshadowed only by his love for
Mary Jane jenkins the housemaid at
Benefits home, and when he fnds
that the young spendthrlft's uncle has

BOHEMIAN BURLESOUERs"
MAKE MERRY AT MINERS

With a company OF lively, charm
Ing girls, beautifully costumed, and
comedians well-known to patrons Of
burlesque, Tom Miners Bohemian
Burlesquers" opened at Miners
Theatre yesterday for a weeks en-
gagement. 1t is evident that no ex-
pense has been spared to make the
production perfect In every detail,
the scenic effects being exceptionally
elaborate.
Heading the list of funmakers is
Andy Gardner, who is ably assisted
In the comedy parts by Ida Nicolai,
Sam Green, Ed. Clark, Hughie Ber-
nard and Joe Barton.
Flossie M. Gaylor, the versatile
actress of lengthy proportions, with
songs and line of talk that kept
the audience convulsed, was encored
time and again. AS conclusion to
the first part of the program Miners
Merry Minstrel Maids presented an
act on the style of the show at the
New York Winter Garden.
The hit of the vaudeville portion of
the program Is Gertie LIE Clair and
her pickaninnies. Judging from the
demonstration given at last nights
performance it looks doubtful If there
is anything in the line of singing,
dancing and acrobatic work that
those picks cannot accomplish.
A special midnight show will be
presented tonight, the curtain ris-
ing at u o'clock THE Country
Store will be the usual Tuesday eve
ming attraction during the first show.

MUSICAL COMEDY AT

Showing the versatility for which
they are becoming more famous as
the season progresses. members of
the Corse Payton stock company
scored a tremendous hit yesterday
afternoon and last night at the Or
pheum Theatre in their repetition of
George M. Cohan's musical success.
"Forty-five Minutes from Broadway"
Ever since the play was presented by
the company last season the manage
ment has been besieged with requests
from patrons who were unable to see
the play and who We're desirous of
seeing the company perform It,
Everybody is familiar with the roles
of Mary Jenkins, made famous by
Fay Templeton and Kid Burns, as
portrayed by Victor Moore, in the
Cohan production, and the songs,

The ten-act vaudeville bill present.
ed at Proetor's this week will fitting
" round out the old year and usher

for this week surpasses any seen at
the big vaudeville house for some
weeks. Several of the acts could be
called the headliners and the others
would run them strong race to the
wire of public approval.
In his initial appearance here VIII
Archie, a diminutive comedian with
three capable players assisting him,
had last nights audience in the
throes of hearty laughter. His sketch,
''Tommy, the Hall Boy" is a clever
one-act comedy that affords cap
able comedian grand opportunity
to put himself in the good graces of
an audience and always have wel-
come awaiting him on a return visit.
Nick Hufford and ]. Dell Chain,
THE 'Culled Parson' and the Min
strel Man." prove a scream from
start to finish. The "Culled Parson''
is one of the funniest characters on
the vaudeville stage. Another who
made q hit was "F'rosini, the man
who dignifled the ACCORDION in
America" His selections and his
playing are refreshing.
Others who contributed to the sue.
cess Of the bill are Gladys Alex
andria and company in sketch OF
stage life entitled broadway Love-"
Ad Carlisle's dog and pony panto-
mine, with Tom, the Talking Pony"
an act that is out OF the usual anil
