BENEFIT RECITAL AT THE
FIRST METHODIST CHURCH

The recital by the pupils Of Mrs. W.
Clyde Roberts, for the benefit OF the
Qui Vive Circle of the First Methodist
church was held on Tuesday evening,
and was one well worth attending.
Some of the best known amateur talent
of Pensacola took prominent parts in
it. Mrs. Roberts is the best reader
and teacher in the city and her pupils
all do2 her credit. A list Of the pupils
follows:
Class in EIocutlon-Miss Elsie NJ.
Williams, Miss Lemayme Pullium, Miss
Alice Pritchard, Miss Utha Lee Went
worth, Miss Margaret Vaughn, and
Miss Marguerite Roberts. Miss Irene
Palmes assisted in the program, and
her vocal solos were well received.
The first number on the program
was a reading, the troublesome Call
err" by little Miss Margaret Vaughn.
Miss Vaughn showed unusual talent
for one so young, and her reading was
very interesting. She has a fine voice
and is very graceful in her gestures,
and bids fair to become a very popular
entertainer, If she keeps up as well as
she has started out she will some day
be one Of the most popular entertain
ers Of the city.
Miss Utha Wentworth was also
heard in a reading, Kentucky Belle"
This is piece which has been heard
time and time again and Is today as
popular as many of the newer ones. 1t
Is one which we never tire OF hearing,
and Miss Wentworth's rendering of 1t
was a fine one. She has n naturally
sympathetic voice and her training
under Mrs Roberts has brought out
new qualities of sweetness in 1t. The
piece certainly lost nothing in the
speaking, but it's beauty was brought
out more than usual. Miss Wentworth
is new reader, but she promises to be
good one, however, a. good deal or
this depends on her ability to stick.
Miss Elsie Williams gave that sweet
old story. 1.-The Shaker Romance" It
contains unlimited scope for an in
terested and sincere reader, and as
Miss Williams is a very interested pu-
pill she did her best on this most diff
dCult piece, and it was well received.
She is one OF Mrs. Roberts's oldest
and most sincere students, and is get
ting to be quite well known as an en-
entertainer. She was dressed in black,
and her colaring is such that she
was very lovely in costume. Her at
titudC all through the reading was that
of an interested narrator, and in the
initiative parts she was very good.
Her audience seemed in perfect SYM
pathy with her, and were worked up
TO a pitch of interest at the climax.
Mrs Roberts appeared in only one
scene. the scene between Brutus and
Cassius. by William Shakespeare. It
was certainly well rendered, and lent
nc hit OF drama that the petal needed.
As Brutus, Mrs. Roberts was fine, and
Miss Alice PritchaTd, as Cassius, was
one Of the best bits of work in the
whole evenings work. Miss PritchaFd's
voice and platform presence fit her for
tragedy. ~~1 she acted the part with
such pertect abandon that the audience
were carried along with her ever
move-lent and listened spellbound. for
the climax Both wore tailored cos
tunes, and we're fine in their respec-
to improve, we shall confidently ex-
poet some day to see her the equal Of
her teacher

My country, it's for thee,
To make your women free;
This is our plea.
High have our hopes been raised
IN these enlightened days
That for her justice praised
Our land might be.
My native country, thee.
Grant us equality,
Then shall we see
IN this fair land of light
Justice and truth and right
Ruling. instead OF might
True liberty.
Our fathers God to Thee,
Author of liberty,
To Thee we sing:
Long may our land be bright
With freedoms holy light;
Protect us by Thy might.
Great God, our King.
The evening was one grand success
and Pensacola people hope to hear
these talented young people again. in
concert before many months. Mrs
Roberts is to he congratulated as
tea cher. but the young ladies deserve
congratulations for their talents and
sincerity.

taking part were. Prof. Hornady and
Miss White. Prof, Evans and Mrs. M.
King. Mr.. ". J. HALEY and Mrs. J. A.
J. Hathaway. Mr.. Ed. Williams and
Mrs. Walter Session..
The play was well carried out i'm
every detail both IN costume and
stately manners while for the fun low
ing element, the courtship Of Billy
and SaIIie, Colored servants Of Mt
Vernon, could not be equaled. These
parts were played to perfection By
Mr.. BurI Herndon and Miss Fannie
Lewis and they gave the young folk
in the audience, quite bit of in
formation on the gentle art Of love
making.
The play was pronounced a success
from every point Of view. the door re-
ceipts amounting to forty eight dol
lars. Bombay Is never behind in any
thing which goes to the uplifting Of
the human race.

Under" by Misses Pritchard, Pulliam
and williams, was one of the hits of
| the evening. The young ladies wore
white skirts and MILDLY blouses, and
were very graceful and finished in
their various parts. The chorus, as
recited in concert by these three young
| ladies, took on new charms, and even
| those who had been hearing and
singing it themselves, found out that it
was much prettier than they had ever
dreamed The gesture work they en-
| ployed was especially good, and their
voices were IN perfect harmony,
Miss Pullium also gave a most hu-
morous reading, Unexpected Guests"
and her impersonation of the tired
housewife was exceptionally good. Miss
Pulliun lis a fine and very popular
young woman, and has also much
talent as a reader. Although her read
ing was very easy to work up, and did
not show the hard work that the others
did, still 1T was greatly enjoyed
Miss Palmes gave two vocal selec-
tons, and these were greatly enjoyed.
She was dressed in rose pink satin.
with heavy lace trimmings and en-
broidery, and was looking very lovely.
Miss Palmes Is q very beautiful young
lady. beside being the possessor OF a
wonderfully sweet voice, and her Sc
lections were the hits of the evening.
The second part of the program was
also very good. 1t was a comedy in
one act, SuLlLlSOs L ne burglar, anu
was very amusing and also well
worked up. The story Is of several
young girls who were left in the home
of the hostess without any protector.
Two of them were young married wo
men, one a young widow, and the
others two young woman. The part OF
the hostess was taken by Miss Alice
PritchaFd. The other married woman
was a young bride. Miss Lemayme
Pullium taking the part. Miss Mar
garet Roberts was the young widow,
and Miss Wentworth and Miss Elsie
Williams were the young ladies of the
party. Miss Williams had the star
and most important part, but the
others played well also. Miss Williams,
as Freda Dixon, was the only brave
one in the party and succeeded in
capturing the intruder. She came out
on the stage with the burglar, a great
white cat, with huge bow of rib
bon on her neck, the house pet holding
him aloft, the heroic young woman
said Girls, here is your burglar" The
girls all collapsed, and the curtain fell
just as the eat began a frantic strug-
gle for his liberty.
