PROGRAM CLEARS
INQUIRER'S DOUBT.

I become desperate and said to the
old board, "Ouija, you must be q press
agent for Sahara. Tell me what the pro-
gram is going to be for Monday"
Then, in a spirit of revenge, ouija
ripped off this hot retort, You poor
fish, look at the program. Goodnight"
I turned the pages Of the program,
and Ouija was right. The whole dope
on the schedule OF events for the hot
Monday was given.
The program is as follows:
P.M-Ron call for candidates at the
Athenaeum.
8 P. M-Grand achievement ceremonial
during which Saharas new cast will exc
emplify the ritualistic work.
$50 P. M-Spectacular street parade
which will consist Of Sahara's Pirate
Band, the Blue Devil Zouaves, the Sa-
haranders and every prophet of Sahara,
$50 P M.-OrientaI love feast and
achievement banquet in the Riley Room
of the Claypool Hotel
P. Manual business meeting at
which officers will be elected for the
FIRST regular term of one year.
10 P. M.-Ceremony of installation OF
new officers.
ii P. M-"Good Night, Prophets"
Oui1a certainly was a great help TO
me in writing this story.

OuUid Reveals
Mysteries of

Ceremonial Set for
Monday.
BY RICK.


Ouita has been talkin' again.
I received a program from Raymond
Murray concerning the fourth ceremonial
session and grand achievement banquet
TO be given by Sahara Grotto Of Indian
apolis next Monday afternoon and eve
ming.
Only Ouija could interpret the Grot-
toish language Of that program. In des-
peration, I rushed to my room and
sought the advice of Ouija.
Tell me, Ouija, dear" 1 pleaded,
what kind of a night is Monday night
going to be at the Grottof"
Ouija slipped about a bit and then
spelled this out: ut is going to be a
hot time in the old town on that night" 7"
How hot will it be, 0uija?" I asked.
Ouija skidded like g FLYER, but landed
in the middle Of the road and spelled
this answer: 1T will be hot for those
who wear a fez and who have exchanged
a five-dollar bill for a 1921 Tan ticket.
Harold NJ. Harter, grand master of cere-
monies at Toledo. o., and W. ]. Frey,
monarch Of Shadukiam Grotto of Detroit,
Mich, will be on hand to enliven the
feast"

STUNTS TOO MUCH
EVEN FOR OUIJA.

was told confdentially by OuiJa that
Bloor Schleppey, who is Sahara's new
ceremonial director, has a bunch OF new
stunts up his sleeve and even Ouija WAS
unable to SEQ through all that was go
ing to happen.
Ouija did impart the information that
there would be moving pictures at the
banquet showing scenes of the Shadu-
kiam's Cedar Point ceremonial Ind
Back to Nature Outing"
Ouija baked when asked to explain
what this Mature" outing would be like
and she politely informed me that only
the owners of the fez would know that.
At this point of the conversation" I
was convinced that Oulja must wear a
fez and possess a tan ticket
Then Ouija became offended and spelled
several words Of a purely personal ma
ture, which appeared to be command
for me to go to some hot climate, which
was not Florida.
I patted the te1ltale board again and
said, "Ouija, dear, tell me about Ad
Libbey."
Ouija told me that Ad Libbey, who is
Sahsra's own bIack-face entertainer.
would be at the banquet and would put
sketch called THE Music Master" Fur
ther than that Ouija would say nothing.
Then Ouija rambled off several SEN
tences in which Sahara Grotto Of Indi-
annapolis was praised for its rapid growth
and the great strides made by tho local
grotto in five months.

Eighth Grade Domestic Art
Class Gives a Novel
Style Show.
TALK BY MISS
RUTH BURNS
Each Charming Lassie Has
the Stag, to Herself
In the Climax.
(By Mrs. Chas. H. Shefield)

.. ..
The stage of the Cov;ngton High
School was the tonter of attraction
Monday afternoon, May 18th, the at
traction being a style show given ry
the Eighth Grade Domestic Art De-
partment students under the supec-
vision OF their efficient teacher, Mss
Ruth Burns. Miss Burns gave an
interesting talk On the classes sew
ing and spoke Of the progress made
by the girls and Of how upon enter
ing some of the girls really did not
know upon which finger the thimbie
belonged.
To the strains of a march the four
teen students of the class marched
upon the stage and went through
the figures Of a class drill clad IN
cooking aprons and caps-'twas a
lovely and refreshing sight. They
treated us to a catchy cooking song.
When they made their next ap-
pearance they had donned their pic
turesque bungalow aprons and look
housewives.
Their next and truly imposing APP
pearance and the climax of the style
show was when they entered as ami
mated models. Each charming lassie
had the stage to herself for while.
The music was softly played and the
audience sat in admiration as each
model made her appearance robed i'll
an organdy dress, her own creation,
with all of the frills and furbeloWs
dear to the. feminine heart and so
appealing to\the masculine one. 1t
was a panorama of youth, beauty,
charm and color that passed before
the audience-there was lavender,
rose pink, peach, tea rose, pea green,
canary yellow, flesh, and dainty
white Each model was admired
and applauded in turn and when the
complete class Of fourteen appeared
the auditorium echoed and re-echoed
with applause for the girls, their
teacher and for the dainty and up
to-the-minute in style and dresses.
