'Iomahawk" Players Show Up Better
than in First Performance; Gif for
Miss Graham; Public Thanked
by Young Thespians

Chickasha high school talent pro,
duced the Girl from Oklahoma" for
a second time in the high school audi
torium last night. While the crowd
was not as large as it was the night
before, yet about three hundred turn
cd out to see the youthful disciples OF
the histrionic art as they produced
lifes heart throbs in the mimic
world"
Those who we're so fortunate as to
attend both performance stated this
morning that. were such thing pos
sible, the performance of the second
night was superior to that on the
first night. The reason assigned by
the local critics for this assertion was
that the youthful performers seemed
TO have gained more confidence in
themselves at the second perform
ance.
Each character played up strong
last night and the realism of some OF
the scenes was striking in the ex-
treme. The life story of the innocent
girl, contesting against the match
making aunt, the intrigue and shallow
lordling were graphically reproduced,
while the strength ~ the character CT
the true man was realistically por-
trayed by the young man iinpersonat-
ing the American engineer
The young artists are seriously con
sidering producing the play at some
nearby city at an early date, flatter-
ing offers having been received from
the superintendents of the city
echools at MARROW, Minco, Verden
nnd one or two other places. Should

well repaid after the SHOW"
Following last nights production
the members of the "Nineteen-sixteen
Annual Tomahawk club" presented
the teacher in English, Miss Marjory
Graham, with an expensive silk UNI
brelIa, with gold mounted handle, in
token Of the esteem in which she is
held by the club.
In thanking the public for the APP
probation shown their efforts, the
saff Of the Annual Tomahawk" desire
TO state that they feel very grateful
to the community at large and that
the club especially desires to thank
the Schow company for the use of fur
niture and Mrs. Ed Johns for her kind
ly and valuable assistance.
