The Much-Heralded Page'. Orchestra
Proves Genuine Farce.
About 25 couples were sadly "stung"
last Saturday nght when, attracted
by the much-heraldad greatness of
the Page concert and dance orchestra,
they attended whut was termed by
some to be the opening of the dancing
season here. Some one Indlglnontly
and fitly declared when he, heard the
so-called music that an old boiler and
dry board would emit more music than
the Page orchestra. The only redefini
ng feature ol the galaxy (?) of musi
cians was the little tot, who not over
years of age, could manipulate a
large variety of Instruments with more
or less effect. Once more the truth
has been driven home, that home tal
ent Is usually better, than 'foreign organizations.
