Baseball fans at Chokio held a

Baseball fans at Chokio held a
meeting at the Chokio commercial
club rooms Saturday night and it was
decided that the village should have
base ball team this year. Promises
to finance the venture were made by
some of the business men, and cap
tain and manager will be chosen
soon and they will recruit team of
players. There are some fast per-
formers at Chokio and it is understood
vacancies will be filled by hired play
ers. So far nothing has been done in
Morris towards base base ball team
but it is agreed that meeting of fans
will be called soon to determine the
matter. The Independents of last year
still maintain their organization and
they will probably have the field to
themselves this season. They are
all home boys and they made such a
good showing last year that they will
find unanimous and liberal support
whenever they decide upon a course.

Madam Sherry Fills
the Lyceum With a
Delighted Audience

Musical comedy is back at the
Lyceum this week in the form OF
MADAM Sherry" and an immense
audience was there last evening to
witness the opening performance, see
the new members Of the company and
to listen to the orchestra with its add
cd musicians. The musical numbers
were splendidly rendered. Miss Emsy
Alton, who heads the singers this
week. was presented with q huge
bouquet Of flowers during the evening
and the regular members of the COM
pany were given pleasant receptions
as they appeared. Mr.. Birch was
made the recipient of much applause
for his fine character work. The
settings were. beautiful, the final scene
showing the yacht Yvonne at night
with the ever famous Coney Island
in the distance being very pretty.
This is the cast Of the play:
Lulu, an actress and dancer ed
wards sweethearD. Emsy Alton
Catherine, Edwards housekeeper
Phillippe's wife) .............
!. Adelaide Hubbard
Philippe, janitor husband of
Catherine) ..t........ L. ]. Fuller
Edward Sherry, a, New York man
about town, a nephew of
Theophilus Sherry. >. Alfred Cross
Leonard Gomez, son Of the presi-
dent of Venezuela. Frank Wright
Pepita, Leonard's sweetheart. 49,.
Lois Bolton
Yvonne Sherry, the convent girl
(niece of Theophilus Sherry)...
............ .l.... Emily Galloway
Theophflus Sherry, millionaire
connoisseur Of Greek art. 49,.
.Wyrley Birch
Hector, head steward on the yacht
"Yvonne'' .......... Fred Sutton
Millionaire Enthusiasts in Aesthetic
Dancing.
There isn't any plot to the comedy
except that Edward Sherry palms off
his housekeeper as his wife to the
intense annoyance of that lady's hus-
band and also represents Leonard
Gomez and Lulu as his children, all
for the purpose Of deceiving MS uncle,
Theophilus Sherry, who comes on
visit with Yvonne Sherry, a convent
girl very innocent and with no lSnowl-
edge of the world or it's customs. The
comedy is purely musical, in which
mostly all the company participate
in solos, the music being decidedly
catchy, particularly EVERY Little
Movement" which was hummed by
the audience as the orchestra played.
Miss Alton, who made her initial ap-
pearance in New Britain last evening,
sings very well and was graceful in
her dances and so was Miss Galloway,
who splendidly played the demure
| convent girl and who was especially
| good in her tipsy song, for which she
| was generously encored. Mr.. Cross
| Mr.. Wright and Mr.. Fuller were good
as always in their respective parts
and Miss Bolton was as lively as q
! cricket as "Pepita," who did not like
to see her lover receive so much at
1 tention from Lulu Mrs. Hubbard
| was just as good as she could be il
her green gown and a bow Of tn
same color in her hair, and Mr.
Birch was very clever as '"Theophilus.
The performance was very good al
/ through the chorus acceptable, tn
encores numerous and the big audi
ence was delighted.

MARGARET SKIRVIN
PLEASES AT POLLS

1t is doubtful if another play will
be found that will so completely ex-
hibit the personality and ability of
Margaret Skirvin, leading woman of
the Poll Stock company, as Maggie
Pepper presented at Polls Hartford
theater this week. Nearly a capacity
audience saw Maggie pluckily fight her
way up from a storegirl to a respon-
sible place as a buyer and then, when
her ambitions were realized, be fired"
through the Vaccinations Of q jealous
map. The cast supported Miss Skirvin
in a competent manner.
Harry HollingsWorth as Joe Hol-
brook, the spendthrift and youthful
owner of Holbrook & Co.'S department
store in New York--the lively young
| fellow whose NATURALLY good charac-
! teristics had been reiega,ed in favor
| Of fun-scored with the audience, par
| ticularly in the last act when his
; manly persistence won for him Mag
| gies love. Welba Lestina, as Ethel
Hargen, to whom Joe HoIbrook was
; engaged and with whom he broke the
| engagement was convincing and earn
/ est, and Roy Phillips, as Jake Boths-
| child the Jewish tailor, provoked
/
! cellent comedy. Ada Dalton. as Mrs.
Thatcher, a robust woman detective
| Tor the store, was another who APP
! lealed because Of her mannish ways
, and her sincere devotion for Maggie.
! Inez Lyman, as Ada Darkin, had q
| hard part to handle, yet did it we'll.
In accordance with the ideas Of
| Manager James Thatcher, a novel be-
| tWeen-the- acts-filler was introduced
when three singers entertained with
a song, "Way Down East" which Mr..
| Thatcher composed recently. The
| singers were encored several times.

Whatever Fashion has introduced for
the grown-ups is sure to follow for the
younger contingent. Just now, these
loose belted garments are exceedingly
smart. This one is the easiest thing in
the world to make and is charmingly
child-like and becoming. AS will be noted
in the different illustrations, it can be
made all of one material or with the skirt
and trimming of one, and the over gar
ment of another, and any frock that can
be treated in that way is good one for
the growing girl since the style lends itself
to remaking with great success. The skirt
is in two pieces, slightly full and the belted
over-garment is made with the blouse and
skirt in one, so that there are only under
arm seams to be sewed.
For the II year size, the dress will re-
uuire sd yds. of material II, 33s yds. SO,
3H yds. a. in. wide, with g yd. Fl for
collar and belt, n yds. of lining ma
terial SO for the upper portion of skirt
The pattern 8478 is cut in sizes from
10 to IA years. It will be mailed to any
address by the Fashion Department of
this paper, on receipt Of ten CENTS.
