turesque spot for picnics.

Friends of Miss Georgabelle Booth,
Who for several months has been ap
earring ON the Pantages circuit in a
nusical act, will be interested to know
hat she and her company are now back
n Spokane, Washington. They will
lay there the remainder of the week,
losing their engagement next week in
'eattle from where they were first
'ooked.
Miss Booth and the other members
f the act already have their new book
ng which will take them south.
The following notice of their act in
Spokane paper will be interesting:
Another musical act is that of the
ymphony maids. There are two violin
SITS and one pianist in this act, and one
f the three sings as well. They are diff
erent from the usual vaudeville mus
,al act. The accustomed mannerisms
f the vaudevillian are lacking; and
he quality of their musicianship is
higher than the vaudeville
verage. One might class them as three
ldies who know good deal about
lusie, and not very much about the
tage; mavhap that is one of the reas- :
MS why their act is so enjoyable. T.
