Iles, general director of the Children's Civic theater of Chi- cago, with music by the Great Lakes band. A number of local children took part. The pageant, given in period cos- tume, was in three episodes: Dawn, Noon and Afternoon, showing the Red Lord of the Realm, his Lady, the Princess, and the Knight of the Red Plume, in a romantic tale of old Eng- land which ends happily. Many archers, minstrels, wrestlers, dancers, knights and gypsies appeared, making a very colorful picture on the wide green at Ravinia. Presiding at the favor booths were the chairman of the Glencoe commit- tee, Mrs. George E. Orr, and Mrs. Harry S. Sandberg, while the Misses Jane Orr and Harriet Sandberg, in festive jester costumes of purple and cerise, with tinkling bells, were favor venders. "Just like old times" was the ex- clamation of one mother when the children began to arrive at Ravinia Park, gaily qostumed, the girls in orange and black, and, red with blagk, and the boys as Robin Hood pages, to take part in the Carnival. Mrs. Harry C. Champlin of the Glen- coe Ravinia committee, whose able directorship and diligent work in training and rehearsing the children made it possible to give the two folk dances, "The Circle" and "Reap the Flax," was responsible for the effective appearance and splendid dancing of the following children: Rubie Battey, Ruth Brown, Mary Jane and Shirley Burnett, Lesley Champlin, Roger Clarke, Kate Davies, Nancy De Beers, Louis Eisenstadt, Susan Goodnow, Janet Hall, Grace Hirshberg, Louise Keckley, Mary Louise Lepman, Katherine Jane Light- body, Margaret Loomis, Loretta and Marie Lorenz, Winifred Lundquist, Betty Jane Meyers, Carlotta Merry- field, Billy Miller, Betty Jane Morse, Frances Orcutt, Mabel Page, Mary Inez Potter, Rosamund Purdy, Jean Reichman, Ellen Sager, Katherine Scofield, Betty Sheldon, Betty and Margaret Simpson, Jane Tapping, Har- riet Thiele, Jean Louise Wagner and Joan Wilder.
