Lents Improvement Club—Street The cantata given by the Millard Car To Stop On Near Side. Ave. Presbyterian Sunday School on Friday evening last, entitled “The Carnival of Flower«.” was presented before a capacity house, even the vestibule being crowded with people who were unable to get in further. It wax a most delightful production. Thirty fresh, young voices, carefully trained, rendered the music in a most pleasing manner, while their costumes in harmony with the flow­ ers they represented, mad» the stage appear what it was in reality—a garden of living flowers. The boys interspersed through the group were dressed in green and put the finish­ ing touches to a most beautiful scene. The queen of the fairies occupied the center of the group, surrounded by her maids of honor, who were dressed in white. The platform, from floor to ceil­ ing, was banked with dogwood against a background of green, gor­ geous bouquets of roses and other flowers completing the decorations. Much credit is due the young ar­ tists for the cleverness of their per­ formance; also to the untiring ef- forts of those who trained the chorus. By request the cantata will be re- peated at the church tomorrow (Fri­ day) evening. The admission to this second performance will be 15 cents. A few additional musical numbers will be given upon this occasion. ASK fOR FOSTER PAVING Two-Platoon And Baker Speakers Heard—Special Meetlnqs To Hear Candidates June 2.
