Red Cross Entertain
ment a Great Success

On the evening of April 5th, the
Silver Plume Red Cross gave a
most delightful entertainment and
dance. The former was of very
high ortler, consisting largely of
readings, dancing, orchestra music,
instrumental solos, duets and quar-
tets. Several vocal numbers were
delightfully."- rendered. Much of
the talent was local and did credit
to the town. The local chapter is
very grateful, however, to the large
n u m Der of people from both
Georgetown and Idaho Springs
who assisted SO ably with the pro-
gram. and a still larger number
who attended. Among the most
pleasing numbers on the program
was the dancing of Mrs. Tia Roy
of Denver Artistic, graceful, and
chaste in every pose and move
ment, she was repeatedly recalled
and each time delighted all present.
After the program, supper was
served. then there was dancing for
the remainder of the evening. The
music was by Leach's orchestra.
The officers and committee of
the local society are to- be con-
graduated on the success of the
entertainment. The proce d s
amounted to $242.15. The society
desires to express heartiest thanks
to all who SO willingly took part
in the program, especially to those
from other towns.
