evening choosing choruses and assign
ing rehearsal periods. Try-outs for
leading roles formed part of the eve
ning's activities, and at a late hour
things were in ship-shape for a strenu-
GUS 13-day period which will end No
vember 2 and when the curtain will
rise on the finished production at the
Opera House.

type of show. entirely pleasing and
novel. It's setting jumps from the
United States to the Spanish quarter
Of the globe, and in both places the
action is swift and unmistakable A
clever manuscript and a tuneful mu-
steal score have given Princess Bon
ME" renown wherever it has been
produced, and to all appearances the
Augusta production promises much in
the way of amateur theatricals.
