girls, western girls, all kinds of
girls In ono long procession of femi
nine dispHiy well calculated to
catch tho masculine eye and arousi:
the admiration of the members of
their own sex.
The best part of tho whole show
was tho enjoyment the girls them
selves got out of it and the effer
vescent spirit of the entire enter
tainment which they were able to
convey to tho audience.

The entire production was con

Tho program was well selected and J

Is deserving of u great deal ot
credit.
The program opened with a skit
"The Meanly Shop." which gave the
girls an opportunity to put across
a number of gags about well known
people of the high school.
"The Circus" was pure horse
play but created the inaviiuuni

circus was enough lo make the en
