L'i spectacular show and the Pen
dleton guardsmen and their generous
friends will do all they can to please
the large audience that will be as
sembled. That the attendance will
be a record breaker is assured by the
fact that at noon ttJay only a score
of untaken seats remain on the lower
floor. With a gallery that Is now safe
and clean no one need stay away be
cause he has not a reserved seat
Last night the final dress rehearsal
was held in the theater and under the
direction of Pan P. Smythe, stage
manager, the troupe was brought in
to shape for the final performance.
As previously announced the pro
gram will be in two parts. The first
part will consist of a bunch of
pleasing specialties all of which have
been previously mentioned. Of these
but one will now be named and that
is the number by the 20 high school
girls. In their costumes last night
the girls made a most strenuous hit
with those gathered in the theater,
and If the roof does not come off to
night when they appear It will be
because applause cannot raise it.
The second part of "the entertain
ment will be taken up with the orig
inal and only extravaganza, "The
Subdual of Hermiston." If any one
thinks this high class play is a mel
odrama he wrongs it sadly. It Is an
cxtrav&aganza and while there will be
some meritorious stunts and some
good singing the basis of the thing 1
burlesque and local hits will abound.
