The Pharsonians,
The Pharsonians gave their annual
mid-winter production in the Armory
on Saturday evening last. The old
saying that “there are just as good
fish in the sea as ever were caught ”
held true here for although some of
the old stand bys ware missed, the
performance this year was just as
good if not better than ever before.
‘ ‘ Pop ’ ’ Golden as interlocutor, was
better than ever. Saunders, Waller,
and Reznor the end men kept the
house in an uproar with their jokes
and catchy songs, while the ballads
by Saunders, Dawson and Rippel
were well sung. Although one of
the Holmes Bros, had a bad cold,
they made a hit, while “Casey”
Fawkes with his “Dooley Philoso
phy” was extremely funny. The
street car sketch which wound up the
performance, was the best thing in
that line that the Pharsonians have
offered for years and if some of .the
details are worked out a little better,
it will make a big hit at Commence
ment.
