MARY'S Musical Play and Rental Given in Honor of St. Caecilia, Patroness of Music, Thursday In honor of St. Csetilia, the patron. | ess of music, the a-spirinj? younj? mui sieians of Si. Mary's school presented a musical play and recital on Thursday, Nov. 22, for the benefit of their parents and interelted friends. Olga Brefeld, impersonating the spirit of Music, o(Kned the program with the rccifcal of the life of St. Caecilia, whose feast the whole church celebrated that day. The lives of such favorite composers as Franz Schubert. Joseph Hadyn and Wolfgang Miozart were sketched by Catherine Diedrich, Lucille Steffe« and Bernice Freund. As a transition from th'e introduction of the program to the play proper a ragged coal black, red lipped negro sang softly the loved old song "Old Black Joe." The audience was sympathetic with this aged, broken form, completely disguising George Vales, when at the end of the song he kicked his feet into the liveliest jig which was repeated in response to the hearty encore * his"- first performance called forth. Then In hobbled Mother Goose herself, hoop skirted, wigged and spectacled. It was not until she spoke that Mary Althoff was recognized under this disguise. After the old dame had seated herself, in trooped her children, Jack and Jill (Dorothy Althoff and Isabelle Blake); Jack Be Nimble ! (Marie Miller); Little Tommy Tuck- I er (Mary Sutton); and Queen of I Hearts with her lucious tarts (Eleanor j Sutton); Little Jack Horner, imperj sonated by Evelyn Schaefer, despite ! his broken arm hopped out of his corj ner and skipped around in the little j dance in which all joined, as spryly lis Little M!iss Muffet (Marion Kaelin) sprang up from her tuffet at the sight of the ugly usurping spider. Little Boy Blue (Audrey Rothermel), Mary Quite Contrary (Betty Jane Conway) and Tom the Piper's Son (Evelyn Justen), came scurrying. Finally the poor flurrietfi grey haired Old Woman Who Lived in a Shoe (Rita Freund), came in with five of her romping youngsters, all clad in black and white gowns, which for this occasion were stiff, and immaculately clean. These well behaved children were: Dorothy Martin, Catherine Buch, Kathaline Justen, Isabell Freund, and Lorraine Knox. The children of the Old Mother Goose vied with each other in acclaiming their merits as music pupils. To prove their arguments they all played. The Old Woman forgot her worries while she played. Queen of Hearts dropped her tarts, Contrary Mary was coaxed to play a violin solo. After the piano and violin solos and duets, the clever little program was crowned and closed with a song in honor St. Caecelia. The applause and appreciation of the onlookers was such as' to elate the young artists and encourage them to hope to have another program in the future. . MAIL SERVICE IS NOW IMPROVED NcHenry aad Other Placet «i the Williams Bay Line Will Again G*t Mail Early In Morning A change was again made in the mail delivery service at MrHenry last week whereby the mail and parcel post is brought from Crystal Lake by the milk train as it passes' through here in the wee small hours of the morning.
