Echoes
DAYS OF YORE)
BY Wellington r. Emery

Remember way BACK Wne0:
The Gateway fairly teemed with
ten cent shows, thirteen of them at
one time? At the present time,
there are a paltry six, quite a
comedown, Ell? The penny arcades
were as thick as leaves on the tree,
especially in the Gateway District.
The old Fourth Avenue South and
Sixth Avenue North street car
crashed the Fifth Street North
bridge, and, oh, what a panic.
Rev. v. s. Cooper used to pack
them in at Zion Baptist Church.
The Hotel st. James first opened,
they hired colored girls as porters
in their barber shop, fancy that.
Branch K occupied shabby
building at Bryant and Sixth Ave
nue. North, where a drug store now
stands, ere they moved to their
present structure at Sixth and En-
erson Avenues North. The electric
pipe organ at the old Zone The
atre, some of the finest music ever
heard was played on it. The Dale
Street hill, in st. Paul, scene OF
many mishaps, coasting and other
wise. The old South Side ballroom,
mecca of colored dances, in the
good old days. ~
st. Paul was famous for its ice
carnivals, and still is, but not with
it's former glory. The two yiolinists,
Leon Abbey and Eldridge Garrett,
whose playing excited due COM
ment. Leon rose to fame; Eldridge
died several years ago in Chicago
in obscurity.
DR.. w. D. Brown cut quite a fig
ure on the tennis courts, and per-
haps he still does. The famous
Stevens Jazz Band. The Longfel-
low Gardens at Minnehaha Falls,
the famous cave, the boldest ven
turing in, the writer was timid at
that time. Simmons restaurant was
located at the corner Of Fifth
Street and Fourth Avenue So, q
rendezvous on Sunday afternoons,
The gay times we youngsters had
at the old Sunday school picnics at
Minnehaha Falls. At the time the
Falls were in all their glory.

to behold. Some of them have not
mastered the difficult graceful walk
and pace of the paid mannequin but
all were valiant in trying and the
folks gave them a great hand.
Some like Barbara Mcclure,
whose smile alone captivated the
house, Pattie Mitchell Davis, whose
grace marked her as outstanding,
the statuesque Mildred Brooks,
who wears clothes Ito the manner
born" and little Louise Neal, who
made an unusual model, gained
applause honors. Those mentioned
gained most attention but each and
every one of the models deserves
high praise.
Grace Yawns
Grace Lacey Bryant amused the
audience by her attempts to stifie
a yawn in each Of her appearances.
She won the audience with smiling
asides to those in the front who
kidded her. She made an excellent
model. Others who made the style
parade an enjoyable picture were
Louise James, Sallie Parks, Mary
Turner Green, Harryette Walls,
Helen Smith, Corey Atkins, Patty
and Barbara Mallory, Marian Car
ter, Marjorie Carter, Nina Salter,
Robby Murphy, Elsie McMoore,
Ikaline Moore, Mary Gibson, Doro-
thea Harris, Cecil Boswell and
Mary Gibson.
The plot or what there was Of
it was tale of plain stock-girl,
Suzy, played by Maxine Jones, who
had longings to wear the pretty
clothes the shop mannequins wore
but was refused promotion by Ma
dame Treville Myrtle Wormley),
the shop owner. Finally Suzy took
matters in her own hand and mod
eled to the complete satisfaction
of the cash patrons of the fashion
salon and the amazement of the
Madame.
The music accompaniment for
the stage show and the dance
which followed was capably han
died by Lord" Byron Doty and
his orchestra.
Part Of Audience Rude
Beneta Edwards pleased with a
piano number, "More Than You,'
and the audience, or a part of it,
showed its rudeness by certain
murmurs when Louneer Pember-
ton, singing the theme song, "a
Pretty Girl" had a difficult time
negotiating a high note. It re-
deemed its rudeness by giving him
heavy applause at the conclusion
of his number which opened and
closed a very enjoyable show.
1t was a grand show and we en-
joyed it and scores of others did,
too.

EMPTINESS

EMPTINESS
If owned lofty mountain
Or held title to the sea,
They really wouldn't mean a thing
Unless you were there with me.
If possessed an island .
With palm trees straight and tall,
My life would be an empty thing
Unless heard your call.
But, I'd be happy in a shack,
With walls and table bare,
Feel like king upon his throne
Provided-you were there!
St. Paul recorder. [volume] (St. Paul, Minn.) 1934-2000, 1937-04-02

Staging GOOD
The staging of the revue was
well managed. Miss Myrtle Worm
ley and her assistants did a nifty
job in metropolitan manner. The
three co-chairmen, Miss Wormley,
j. F. Stevens and Mrs. Beulah
Mitchell, have reason to feel proud
of the revue. Other committee
members were Dave Francis, Enrol
Fasett, Mrs. Don La Faucette, and
Talmage B. Carey, who did splen-
did job as publicity man as well
as did Harvey Moss. The models
committee was Mrs. P. Boswell,
Mrs. Francis Brown, Mrs. Ethel
Williams and Mrs. Burie Carmi-
chael.
No matter how efficient the COM
mittee, it is the performers who
please the audience.
The first part of the. program
was given over to the presentation
of women's fashions from 1850 to
1910. AS Clarence Hughes an
nounced the various periods, mod
els wearing clothes representing
the respective eras paraded across
the stage.
The first scene showed colonial
home with Mrs. Robert Young i'm
personating housewife of that pc
Rod seated at one Of the proverbial
spinning wheels of that period.
Models included Mrs. J. Thompson,
Mrs. H. White, Mrs. Frank Con-
nors, Mrs. Harry Lucas, who sang
a song appropriate to the graceful
period which her costume illus
trated, Mrs. B. F. Perry, Mrs. Ar
thur White, Mrs. Annie Coleman,
Mrs. Talmage B. Carey, Mrs. Enrol
M. Fasset, Mrs. j. F. Stevens, who
was vastly amusing in her old
fashioned dress, and the Misses
Dorothy Hall and Helen Waters.
Modern styles were portrayed
in skit, Fashion Salon." which
pictured the various human types
who patronize the exclusive dress
making salons. The skit was writ
ten by its director, Miss Wormley.
The cast included the always capa-
BILE Maxine Jones, Mrs. Earl Kyle
and her three children, Audre Bea-
trize, Donald Mcclure, clever
youngster who is an excellent song
delineator, Muriel Wigington, AL
bert Mcclure, Robert Schoffner,
youthful dancer whose trucking"
and "Susie Ding" literally brought
down the house. This lad has great
possibilities as dancer.
Other cast members were Beu-
lah Mitchell, who is always an ex-
cellent actress, Daisy Nevills, Paul
Shelby Curry and Anna Pearl Hor-
ris, who sang a lovely duet, Mrs.
R. H. Van Hook, Louis Maxwell,
Andrew Clark, Valdora Turner,
Louis Mason, Kitty Vassar, Clar-
ence Hughes and Katherine Under
wood.
Dancing Girl
Then there was that promising
little sprite, Adelaide Sykes. My,
how that little girl can dance. She
did an eccentric dance which
brought an encore. And by the way,
we have seen Adelaide Sykes dance
three times and the thing which
we noticed particularly in addition
to her artistic hoofng is the fact
that she makes her encores leaving
the audience wishing for more.
Florence Ward sang two numbers
in her usual efficient manner.
Parade OF Beauty
The mannequins who displayed
to fine advantage the clothes and
finery the purchase of which makes
many husbands bill-weary made q

Of the garments adjoining the
models beautiful but the maids who
wore them were a wonderful sight

days Marines and bluejackets had
taken Vera Cruz. Subsequently the
American forces were withdrawn, but
only after Huerta had taken flight.
Admiral Mayo was appointed COM
mander in chief Of the Atlantic Fleet
in 1916 and held that command
through the period Of American par

mand including all vessels in Atlantic
and European waters. During that
period he was for the most part on

he made trip Of inspection of Amer

In 1917 he represented the United

Commended by Daniels.
Wiring him after his retirement for
age in 1920, Secretary Daniels said:
1T is a matter of congratulation that
while under your command the United
States Fleet reached its highest efici-
ency and made its largest contribution
in the World War. When we entered
the war, largely due to your direction,
the fleet was in its highest state Of
readiness. Your service abroad was not
only recognized by your countrymen
but by naval leaders Of the allied ma

when DR.. Townsend left the commit

The stipulation was submitted TO
the court shortly after Chairman Bell
of the House Committee had been
called to the witness stand. He tes-
titled Townsend had appeared before
his group May, 10, 20 and 81.
In taking the witness on cross-ex-
animation, Hansen stated he pro-
posed to show the major purpose Of
the investigation was political and not
legislative. In that connection, he
added, he wanted to show the no
toriously corrupt political machine"
in Missouri, Bells home State, had
opposed the Townsend plan.
Trial Justice Peyton Gordon ruled
he could not pursue this line Of ex-
animation unless he was willing to
make Bell his own witness.
When DR.. Townsend, q national
figure only q few months ago, entered
the court, the room was only about
two-thirds full and many Of those
present were extra jurors. The jury
of IL men and woman was chosen
quickly, the Government exercising
only one challenge and the defense
none. Three Of the jurors are alderly
men, the others being comparatively
young.
DR.. Townsend, wearing brown suit
and red striped tie, took his seat be-
hind his attorneys, Hansen and Joseph
A. Cantrel, with hardly q glance at
the scattering Of youthful spectators
in the room. He showed little interest
in the proceedings beyond staring at
the jury and an occasional conference
with his attorneys.
