was held silent for fully three min
utes by roars of applause. His dra-
matte situations were perfect.
Mrs. Emma Payne as "Zeresh" has
never appeared to a greater advan-
tage Her climaxes were forceful and
effective, her voice rich and beauti-
full her dramatic work impressive
and her costuming gorgeous. With
A. C. Rollins, as Haman, who was a
favorite, with an exceptional baritone
voice under perfect control, thrill
ing climax was scored in their Fare
WELL" Rollins both in voice and
dramatic art was a favorite.
The Persian Chorus of beautiful
young folks from Western University
with Prof. R. G. Jackson in charge,
held their own. Their costumes were
pretty and becoming, they sang with
force and power, carrying out every
dramatic situation with ease. The
Jewish Chorus was richly garbed and
was made up of the best singers of
the two Kansas Cities in charge of
Major N. Clark Smith, rendered the
most effective dramatic musical treat
that has ever been witnessed in Kan
sas City. Mrs. Leila Allen as Prop
hetess1 in this chorus was at her best
and effectively portrayed her part;
her costuming was beautiful, and her
dramatic work pleasing.
H. S. Williams as High Priest"
carried his audience with his rich,
deep bass voice. His part was made
the more impressive by his costume
and dramatic situations. Mrs. Cora
Evans, Mordecia's sister, was one of
Kansas City, Kansas, leading soloists
and held her own in the Jewish
chorus. Her voice was clear and ef-
fective, made more so by her drama
tic art and beautiful costume. Also

At the Auditorium Theatre Friday

T. H. Reynolds as "Mordecia" could
easily be classed with grand opera
Mrs. Brown has been singing in Kan
sas City for years but never has she
been heard, making a tremendous hit
with dramatic situations perfect, as
she was on Friday evening. She made
an ideal Queen, perfect self control
beautiful and richly robed. James
Anderson was King was ideal. He
looked his part and played it only as
James Anderson can. His deep, rich
commanding voice was that of a
King, made more effective by his
dramatic infections. Prof. T. H. Rey-
nolds was decided hit and majestic
in his rendition of Mordecia. His
sweet voice soaring in pathos, plead
ing for his people, almost compelled
that large audience to their feet. He

Miss Jessie Wallace, the Persian
Maid, was another of Kansas City's
good singers. She rendered her part
very pleasing; her dramatic situations
and costuming we're ideal Mrs. Kath-
crime Jones in her solo comforting
the Jews was impressive and made
great hit. Her costume and dramatic
work were very effective. The Maids
of Honor, the Misses Johnson, Rich

pages, Master Felix Payne, Jr.,
and George Love, Jr., all played we'll

ty-five persons on the stage and not

Prof. Clyde Leroy Glass, one of the
greatest pianists of the race, mastery
supported both soloist and chorus in
a way that it seemed impossible for
them to fall. All of Kansas City in
one big voice is praising Mrs. Osborne
and her assistants and congratulating

failure? Did you know that 80 per
cent of the Colored people of the
United States is either brown or
black and only 10 per cent are mula-
toes-do you see the reason why Col
ored moving pictures have failed?
The little black and brown children
who fill the first five rows in every
Colored moving picture theatre in this
country, must not be made to feel the
sting of inferiority. They must be
made a part of that scenery, or else,
the Colored movies must go. 1t is
shocking the sensibilities of the race
to have the white movies to show us
in slip-shod and humorous manner,
but when the same thing is practised
by our own people, it is more than we
can stand. Moving pictures always
represent a race, not a select few.
Would any one dare say the reflec-
tion on the movie screen of the black
face of Reverend ]. w. Hurse, beam
ing with intelligence and love for his
people. or the brown likeness of Mr..
Groves, who taught the world how to-
grow potatoes, or our own invincibfe'
Nelson Crews, who by his mastery of
speech, has won a place in the hearts
of race and nation, could be other
than pleasing to a Colored audience
There is some soul of goodness in
things evil
Would men observingly distill it out.

CHILDREN'S DAY EXERCISES AT
PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH

At the close of the Sunday school
Sunday morning, the primary grade
gave a delightful little children's
day exercises, assisted by Miss Mar
jOrie Trisler and Miss Rachel Nc
Clintock, from the Junior depart
ment.
The subject selected was Gods
Garden" and the little children,
carrying daisies, buttercups. violets,
roses and blue-bells. brought their
message in lovely little songs and
recitations. The tiny little tots az
birds and daisies were an inspira-
ton to look at and the rose buds
were joy forever. The buttercups
and violets were bit larger in size,
but just as sweet and engaging,
while the boys of the class distin-
guished themselves by the manly
way in which they spoke and the
heartiness with which they Joined
in the singing. The special num-
bers were a beautiful solo sung
splendidly by Master Julian Howe,
lovely duet, Have You Seen Little
Bluebirds?" sung by Misses Flea
nor Swearengen and Geneveve
Dockenbrode in most winsome
manner, and four fine recitatiOns by
Master Jimmie Wilson and Misses
Carolyn .Redding, Madeline McMan-
us, and Gladys Quinn. The title
songs calling for the responses from
the flowers were sung very grace
fully and sweetly by Misses Rachei
McClintock and Marjorie Trisler.
The exercises were brought to
close by Mr.. Robert HARRISON, who
sang a lovely song to the children
who are 1.-The flowers in Gods Gar
den. Miss Johnson planned and di-
rected the entertainment with only
one rehearsal from the children,
and she announced that the teach
ers had decided to give it another
time without any rehearsal, just TO
show what their children can do.
