School Children In
Charming Operetta
Show Wonderful Progress Under
Direction of Miss .Shepardson

The entertainment given by
school children in the Opera House
last Friday evening measured up
in every particular to the promises
made by the management. 1t was
indeed the best school entertain
ment ever given in Newark. The
business manager triumphantly
announces one hundred sixty
seven dollars added to the school
fund as the result of the perform
ance, but the spectators declare
the money represents, by no
means, the most gratifying part of
the entertainment. Newark, suf-
fering from a dearth of musical
talent for years, could we'll ap-
preciate the marks Of promise
which the young people displayed,
after only one term of expert in
struction. The music had a swing
and rhythm which was especially
pleasing; the children proved that
they have learned to sing-really
sing,-musically. The entire per-
formance was given with a finish
which delighted every one.
The rising curtain revealed the
emperor's garden, spot made
beautiful with Towering wisteria
and boughs of apple blossoms. The
emperor and his train, the beauti-
full princess, about to celebrate her
eighteenth birthday, with her at
tendants, made the scene a color
full and brilliant one. Act two,
presented the revels Of Saucer
eyes, and his Sprites, around the
cave of Inky Night, in which the
princess had been concealed. The
FAIRIES, led by their queen Moon.
beam, come to the rescue of the
distressed princess and lead hei
back to her fathers garden. Ir
act three, the entire cast, with the
chourses appear, to welcome the
princess. The operetta closes with
grand finale including snatches
of song from the entire operetta

What-for-Whi, Anna Ritz. as th'
princess Chrysanthemum, Johl
