T 7 THREE CHAUFFEURS
St to Girls Give Their Superb Pro-
duction Before Enthusiastic Au-
dience.
In a most 'pleasing and agreeable
manner, the comedy, , "The Three
Chauffeurs,' was presented by the
girls of the college op Saturday
evening. 'Frbm the prologue, which
was 'admirably rendered 'in true
Shakespearian style, to the grand
finale, every 'part of ihe play pro
ceeded with i delightful vivacity and
charm that , entirely satisfied Fthe
crowded house The acting, the
singing, the dancing, the music,
the scenery, - all were eminently
satisfactory To our friends of the
Woman's Department, and to their
able helpers, Miis Moses and Miss
Atherton, are due the highest praise
and the most sincere congratula•
tions.

most laughably
he Thespians, -in
presence of
"bald headed row," of the Phar
sonians, and of the } true "hard
heads" grouped in the gallery. The
presence of ,; so many distinguished
looking gentlemen, even though
they were somewhat lacking in hair,
gave a most dignified appearance to
the front rows of seats; although the
costumed Pharsonians behind them,
by the judicious use of ticklers, made
the bareheads slighly uncomfortable.
.Th first act, with its ' setting in a
a most enchanting tea garden, was
full of life and interest. Many of
the hits aimed at students and facul
ty were cleverly applied, and were
well received by the audience.
Among the special attractions dur
ing the act were the solo by Miss
Thompson, Miss Jackson'slrecitative
work, and Miss Harmai's clever
songs. The Motor Dance at the
close of the act
~i vas a presentation
of most commenttable dancing; and
this attraction, ortF of the best parts
of the program, was, enthusiastically
received. Too much praise cannot
be given the dancers for theik ex
cellent work
, The pantomimic novelty. i "Les
Deaux PoupeesH 'which was, given
between the acts, lent a very pleas
ing touch of quaintness and Charm.
The dolls were exceptionally good
to look upon, and their movements
were m6st clever and lauihable,
The ever,ine scene in the second
act was ost romantically staged,
fn
and the uzzing ; adventures of the
three be videred chauffeurs were
interesting in the extreme. The
duster attired "men" seemed well
at home, even tliptigh struggling
under heavy, difficulties. Of course;
as in the case of all mistaken identi
ties of the stage, everything tas
straightened out ,to the satisfacon
of all. .4 The masquerade scene, tjith
its gaily attired characters, formed
a Most attractive picture, v/14
serVed well in leading up to a bril
liant . climax. , In the grand finale
the mass of blending
, colors, and
the picturesque. costumes formed a
scene splendidly adapted to 'dosing
the adventures of "The Three
Chauffeurs."
