A PAGEANT.
1.-THE Finding of the Holy Grail"
Arranged by Mr., BrOOkeS,

hANAuSCu lNAAs ASAOonCSs
A beautiful pageant, "The Finding
of the Holy Grail" has been ar
ranged by Rev. George S. Brookes,
to be given soon at the Congrega-
tional church. Many novel cos
tunes and characters will be intro
duced, about 100 people participat-
ing. A charge to cover cost of pro-
duction will be made. Mr.. Brookes
is confident that the people of Ellis
worth will patronize the first
pageant ever produced by local
talent in the city.
The following synopsis will give
some idea of the pageant:
Part 1.-The Quest of the Holy Grail.
1. The Birthright Sir Knight
America is armed by the five virtues of
American birthright-the helmet of
faith, the armor of purity the sword
of justice, the shield of steadfastness
and the spurs of zeal.
2. The Vision-Liberty calls to the
Knight to find the Grail of the nations
(The Grail was the cup from which
Christ drank at His last supper, and
only those of perfect purity and unset
fishness could find it,
8. The Appeal-The Indians, de-
'prited of their lands, come asking
Justice; the negroes, enslaved, mutely
plead for help. The Knight, dazzled
by the promises of Riches, Power and
Glory, refuses aid.
Part 1.-THE Vigil.

of the peoples. Liberty is again re-
vealed. Indians. Eskimos, Highland
ers, immigrants, Chinese and Japanese
negroes, enter, all seeking true liberty
and not finding it.
2. The Work of Christian Educa
tion-Little Eskimos, Hawaiians, ORR.
entails, Mormons and immigrants. tel
bringS them.
3. The isappointment-The Knight
rich, powerful, crowned with laurel
returns, but he has not found the
Grail. Christian assures him he will
find it only in brotherhood-the spirit
of the Christ.
4. Observation-Disclosures and ne
groes IN degradation and chains are
set Tree by law. but Innocence comes
in and claims them for his own. Edu.
cation comes to the rescue but race
hatred rushes in and threatens to ruiz
all her work. Love and her spirits
enter and open the gates of life to all
Part III. The Coming of the Grail.
All participants march to stage
True brotherliness is seen, Liberty is
revealed again and the quest is at ar
end.
