.ELKS MINISTRIES
READYFORSTAGE
Rehearsal Last Night
Showed Cast With But
Few Inperfections

Practically every member of the
cast Of the Elks' minstrels, which
will open four day engagement at
the Hippodrome next Tuesday, was
present at the rehearsal In the
lodge room last evening. The
musical numbers, to which the re-
hearsal last night was confined,
were sung without a noticeable
rough spot, and only on one or two
occasions was 1t found necessary
to go over the songs again, The
next rehearsal will be held tomor-
row evening.
That Fred Dorfnger, the director
OF the production will have the
cast in perfect working order by
next Tuesday night is considered a
foregone conclusion. In fact, It Is
believed that with only a dress re-
hearsal, the production would be
ready for the stage. The songs arc
all clever, the dances snappy and
the jokes more than laughable.
Moreover, the chorus has already
been well trained, and the show is
expected to go over on the opening
night without the slightest break.
Among the members of the
chorus are Harold Ridgely, Bob
Dietrich, Kenneth Schwarm, Gus
Stanhagen. Charles McCray, I. A.
Holman, Charles Jeffries, Charles
Hawkins, Jack Ahern, Bob Beebe,
Clark Davis, Clyde Coleman, Jimmy
Knight and Claude Haun.

Indiana and Flowers

The flower show is attracting thousands of
citizens of this state to Indianapolis to of
the most beautiful displays that has been exhib-
tied in Indiana for many years.
Not the least interesting of the exhibits is
the showing which Indiana growers are making
and particularly the beautiful displays of the
growers and florists of our own city. Richmond
has attained an international reputation by rea-
son of the new varieties which have been devel-
oped here by the Hill company. The flower show
gives visible proof of the greatness of Richmond
in this respect, and brings the work of our rosar-
ians and flower growers sharply to the front.
Indiana flower growers are not recognized as
they should be. Most of us think of California
and Florida in connection with beautiful flowers.
We do not know that Richmond and other Ind-
ana cities annually ship thousands of flowers to
these states. Richmond is a center from which
flowers in almost countless numbers are shipped
to the markets of the United States.
Every citizen who has the opportunity should
go to Indianapolis this week to see the flower
show. 1t is sight worth while seeing; an exhi-
bition that seldom is made in city of the size of
Indianapolis. Flower shows usually con-
Quoted in Chicago and New York and other great
centers of population. When an exhibition, fully
as good is held in our own state, it invites our
attendance.
