Clara Gill, impressed all with her
decided technique and skill as a
pianist and furnished the completing
number OF the program.
Oftimes a play given with success
at its first presentation and then re-
peated is a disappointment. but the
repetition of the play, "A Day and a
Night" last night by ten
from the Girls Club surpassed the
original performance. The girls
played their parts remarkably well.
bringing put the clever lines of the
comedy. The audience were partic-
ularly appreciative of the second
act. which. though very short, re-
quired much preparation, in the Ell
fort to run it off smoothly as was
succeeded in last night. The ten
characters included the Misses La
Verne DeHamm, Elizabeth Dolan,
Dorothy Hidden. Muriel Haney,
Rose Sacarny. Anna Jensen. Kathryn
Herbert, and Adele Williams and
Mrs. Rose Kempner. Miss Doris

yet known but they will amount TO
nearly $3.50, as announced by n
Ladies' Auxiliary of the Home who
