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.
