DELEGATES LEAVE FOR MUIR
FREESBORO.

An unusually large delegation left
Nashville this week for Murfreesboro,
Tenn, where the Stone River Associ-
alton and several of the aux1liaries
are in session. They are to remain
over Sunday. The following auxil-
iaries are meeting in conjunction
with the Association: The Sunday
School and B. Y. P. U. Convention
for the District; the Women's Auxil-
larry to the Association and the Dis
trict Laymen's Conference. The Asso-
citation is practically made up of the
churches in and about Nashville and
close proximity hereto, but it is one
of the best in the state, and has by
far the largest attendance and mem
bership. 1t will be recalled that the
Association met in Nashville last
year at the Second Baptist Church,
aud that they created quite a deal OF
inspiration when they marched
through the streets of Nashville sing
ing religious songs and visiting the
National Baptist Publishing Board in
body. Afterwards they were taken
in trolly cars for ride over the city.

with Miller's Wonder Show. Unlike
the ordinary run Of musical comedy
and Miller's show claims to be but
a song and dance revue-there Is
visible the thread OF story through
out the entire show. Events occur
In their sequence and not haphazard-
ly. The chorus throughout is dressed,
and that In artistic and gorgeous cos
tunes. The dance numbers are
great and receive the thunderous ap-
probation that they well merited.
The Apache dance number took the
cake with the audience whose insis-
tent encores necessitated an appear
ance on the stage by Manager Ell
more, who explained that this num-
Der could not possibly be repeated.
The Scotch dance by Lucille Bryant
team was exquisitely done and re-
ceiyed many encores. The Broadway
eakewalk by Minus and Bryant also
brought down the house. The Miller
Waltz by Irwin c. Miller and Esther
Bigeou was artistic in the extreme
and moreover clothed in a blaze of
the sustained romance that makes
this show so different and so superior
20 the ordinary thing. The Madura
Dance was also very good,
In song numbers the show scored
even harder than in the dance nun
bers, and this in spite of the need
of two or three more principals. But
then the show has the great good
fortune to possess those two supreme
artists of the race, Downs and Gomez,
and their delightful and sheerly eX.
quisite renditions more than made
up for certain vocal weaknesses in
the balance of the cast. Theodore
Pankey alos starred in the vocal line
Mr.. Pankey has a fine voice and a
finer personality. He would make

ly or the serious drama. His num-
hers, Time VIII Mend a Broken
