have appropriate and handsome cos
tunes. The students have been work
ing hard to prepare all those to b.
used in the Morris dances by students
in the Robin Hood and Maid Marian
costumes, but something extra wa.
needed for the chief characters
in the ballad. The depart
ment has now sent to Port
land for the costumes of the wedding
party. The Lincoln green and the
brown of the Robin Hood costumes
will be most effective. Miss Bre-
shears was most emphatic in her as
surances of the great. assistance the
additional sum of money would be.
Industries be Represented.
One of the departments most in
need of funds was that of physical edu-
cation. Miss Stephens, who is in
charge of all the dances to be pre-
scented, is overjoyed to find that with
the extra money allowed she will be
able to secure such additional music
as is absolutely necessary to the effect
she wishes to produce. She has
lovely plan for that large and impor-
tant part of the pageant with which
she is concerned. By series of dances
she wishes to represent the industries
of Idaho: sheep raising, agriculture,
mining, forestry, and dairying. The
first group will be dressed as Shep-
herdesses, the music being the popoul-
ar and beautiful Stephanie Gavotte
The second group will be harvesters,
the music being old Finnish Folk mu-
sic obtained from New York. The
third group will be a trio of gnomes
to represent gold, silver, and lead, the
dances to be done by three little girls, |
Helen Parsons, Helen Stanton, and |
Mary Hume. The music will be the
Dance of the Brownies. The next |
group will be the Wood Nymphs, the |
music for these dances being especial
ly beautiful, the Dance of the Hours
from the opera La Gioconda. The last
group of special dancers will be the
who will dance to Ham
Inns Caprice Joyeuse After these
1ances are over, the always lovelyl
Nay pole dance will be given before
he May Queen, the music for this
being the stirring march by Mr. Carey,
The Spirit of Idaho. Miss Stephens is
to have the May Queen and
Ter S5 attendants gather in the grove
behind the garden on the hill. At the
ignal, the procession will begin to [
Wind down toward the Administrator
passing through the arch +,
way. The May Queen will hold her |
curt on the steps of the Administra- {
ion building from which she will re- S
lew the pageant. Until the gift u F
he chamber of commerce was made t
nown, Miss Stephens had abandoned b
lmost all hope of being able to pro-
lde the proper dress accessories for
er dancers, but now it will be possible
, supplement the pretty costumes
lade by the girls at their own eX- a
ense with all the little accessories h
