and the arrangement of seats in tiers as
in a theater will insure every one OPP
portunity to see everything on the stage.

! through without a break, except for an
intermission of half an hour, during
which time the lemonade girls, the ciga-
rette sellers, the voung-bOOth people and
the flower distributors Will be extremely
busy.
The flower booth girls, under the d.
rection of Mrs. Robert Henderson and
