High School Operetta The Pioneer Methodist Church Appreciated by Large Crowd Philip D. Hartman, pastor. The Liberty Theatre was well filled for the high school operetta, “Bailor Maids,” last Friday evening, although a matinee for school children had been given in the afternoon. The matinee had also served as a final dress rehearsal and gave the members of the cast more confidence and showed them how their presentation could be improved. And when they came to render the musical numbers before an adult au- dience in the evening they won the warmest kind of praise for the •x- cellence of their acting and singing. Wirth a cast, including choruses of sixty, it was an ambitious undertaking and Oran Rickard is justly receiving heartiest congratulations for the suc cessful way in which the students performed, under his direction. A synapsis of the actioh was given in the Sentinel a couple of weeks ago, and we shall not repeat it, but men tion must be made of the splendid vo cal renditions made by the leading characters—Anne Barton, Jack Mc Cue, Ernest Cooper, Bill Floten, Frances Eggleston, Harry Heimkin, Keith Holverstott, Betty Glaisyer and Herman Ellingsen, the latter as a re tired sea captain, furnishings much of the comedy. Anne* Barton has a wonderfully sweet voice which blended with that of Jack McCue, the other leading character of the operetta, and their singing was a source of constant de light to the audience. The "Sailor Maids and the Life Guard choruses were well drilled in their numbers, and the quartet, com posed of Jack McCue, Donald Farr, Carl Yeoman and Gus Gailas, who appeared between acts, added pleas ure to the evening’s entertainment. The entire cast was given a party at the W. V. Glaisyer home after the performance. Rev. W. J. Morrow, executive secre- tary and manager of the Wesley Hos pital at Marshfield, Oregon, will bring - the message next Sunday morning on, ‘‘The Miniatry of Healing.” On Sunday evening the pastor will speak in, “The Gift Supreme.” Sunday school at 10 a. m.
