STOP AND SHOP BAZAAR
WINS HIGH PRAISE FOR
WINSLOW MOTHERS CLUB

Winslow Mothers club won fame
for itself Friday night with it's Stop
and Shop Bazaar. The affair was
undoubtedly the most successful and
the best that has ever been staged
by the organization.
When the curtain raised for the
vaudeville every seat in the large
Washington school auditorium was
taken and a number of people were
standing at the rear. 1t is seldom
that there is such large turnout
for an affair of this kind; the people,
however, literally turned out en- mas
Sc, which speaks we'll for the popu-
larity of the organization
And those who attended were not
disappointed. Every number on the
program received whole-hearted
response from the audience. There
was not an act which did not score
a distinct hit.
The first number on the program
was song. Peter Pumpkin,
the fourth grade. About 40 pupils
took part in this act. The little peO-
geo presented a pleasing sight With
the different sized jack-o-lanterns,
and they sang for all they were
worth. This skit was sort Of intro
duo ton in keeping with the season.
Mrs Paul Lildejahl has rich
voice, large soprano, which is very
pleasing. She sang the difficult piece
with ease, negotiating the hard parts
in a manner which showed that she
possesses a gifted voice. Her singing
of 1.-THE Kiss" was a rare treat Win
slow is indeed fortunate that she is
residing here.
The Six Cyclists, composed of Jean
Quebedeaux. Thomas Kaufman, jean
nette Richardson, Thomas Quebe-
deaux, Betty Black and Keith Rich
ardson, was very amusing number
The little people riding tricycles with
the girls in beautiful costumes and
the boys dressed as clowns, whirled
onto the stage and performed several
clever stunts. Their skit was very
effective and amused the audience so
much that there was prolonged laugh
ter After deserting their bikes they
came to the front of the stage and
sang Eyes, We Have No Bananas"
They received rousing response.
Mrs. Des Mahoney gave a piano
logue, When Shadows Come A Creep
ing. This piece was wonderfully in
terpreted and was so pleasing to the
audience that it called for an encore.
Mrs. Mahoney responded with Honey
Come and Sit Beside Your Mamma"
which was equally good.
A number which was a distinct hit
was the solo dancing of Miss Beryle
Hammond Moving with almost per-
feet rhythm, poise and grace, Miss
Hammond captivated her audience
| with her art. She exhibited muci
skill with her toe dancing doing many
of the difficult steps of the profess
sionals. She responded to clamor
for an encore.
Messrs. Liljedahl, Porter, Kyle and
Ellis composed quartet which was
especially popular with the audience.
They sang Call Me Back Pal OF
Mine" and "Dearie". Their singing
pleased the younger people so much
that some of the boys threw money
onto the stage and gave them a rous-
ing yell.
Mrs. Ted Burbage in the costume
of a Scotch highland lassie read a
scene From the Heart of Midlathian'
and gave a Highland Fling. Her in
depreciation and lmpefBOnaClOn OF IHe
scene was exceptionally good. The
Highland Fling was novel and unu-
sual with it's peculiar steps.
The last number on the program
was a song, "Jack-O-Lantern Man"
which was sung by Miss Doris Hen
derson and chorus including Misses
EVELYN Proctor, Dorothy Brooks,
Opal McHood, Helen Fussell, Frieda
Hart, Corrinne Ward, Myrtle Kelly
and Halline Douglas. The young la
dies responded to an encore with the
Summer Girl revue This vaudeville
skit with the girls in afternoon golf,
tennis and bathing costumes scored
distinct hit. The piece was clever,
ingenious and most effective with
it's contrast and choral melody.
After the vaudeville the people
gathered at the various booths. The
fish pond and the grab bag was es-
pecially popular among the children
who were anxious to try their luck.
The candy booth and the hot dog and
"eats" stands did rushing business.
