The pageant 1.-THE Awakening of
SPRING" which was presented at the
Grand theater Friday evening was
one of the most attractive diversions
offered the visiting women. The cast
was composed almost without excep-
tion, of the children of Salem Elks
and was sponsored by the women Of
the Illahee auxiliary who are Mes
danes Ben w Olcott, Clifford Brown,
Chester Cox, T A Livesley, Dan Fry
Jr, VIM II Burghardt 'Jr.. John J
Roberts, Walter McDougal, r M Ho-
Ter, VIM II Lytle, T Smith Jr., w
Plimpton, t l. Van Doren and
Frederick Thielsen.
The pageant was remarkably well
directed affair and 1t seemed impos-
slbe to believe that the cast was not
made up of theatrical children, 50
clever was their work, and although
lhe beauty of the spectacle would
nave made it an immediate success,
Inc graceful dancing of the children
rendered 1t ideal. Solo dancing, group
dancing and vocal numbers made up
Inc production and brought forth the
spontaneous applause of the audi
ehce' Myrtelle Shipp as the Sun was
ioVely in her Interpretation, while
mona schaum as Storm, Jeanette
sykes as Dawn, Leona Geer as Rain
afops, Janet Plimpton as the Rain
VOW and Margaret White as Spring,
were pleasing. Mildred Roberts was
