The beautiful fairy operetta, Lalla, was presented on Friday night at the opera house to an appreciative audi ence. Prof. W- L. Johnson, who di rected the production, deserves a great deal of credit for the complete success of the entertainment. Before the commencement of the perform ance quite a number of beautiful se lections of vocal and instrumental mu sic were given by Mr. and Mrs. Chas. W. Hames, Miss Annie Johnson, Mr. Robert Swafford. Miss Pablita Gorham and Miss Irene Wheat. This part of the program was very much appreci ated by the audience. Wfhen the curtain arose on the first act of l^aila, disclosing a band of happy irtountain children, singing and feasting around their table under the branches of the trees in the forest, the audience broke out in tumultous applause; but their enjoyment is in terrupted by the entrance of a beg gar woman and he 4 - children, and a part of the mountain children at first were disposed to make fun of the old woman and her children, but Laila, stepping out from among them, em braced t he poor old woman and re buked others ror their unkindness. All the jhildren then unice in an ef fort to make the poor beggar woman and her children forget the seeming unkindness, and they are invited to participate in the feast. At the opening of part second Laila is discovered wandering in the forest, where she is lost; failing to discover the way out of the forest she drops to her knees in prayer, when a band of beautiful fairies are seen approach ing, their splendid costumes glittering and shimmering in the colored lights, producing a most dazzling effect. They sing a merry chorus and lead her out of the forest. In the last act the mountain chil dren are seen searching for Laila,; de spairing of finding her they assemble in the grove where they were first seen, and to their astonishment they behold coming toward them the lost Laila, led by the beautiful fairies, who announce to them that they were the beggars who were with them in the morning. It is a beautiful story and teaches a valuable lesson. The little folks all played their parts excellently. Miss Pablita Gorham a s Laila, Miss Daisy Wllblns as the beggar woman, Miss Julia sarratt as the queen of the fai ries, Miss Helen Gooding, Miss Louise Johnson, Miss Myrtis Little, Miss Mil dred Lipscomb and Miss Myrtle Little john deserve especial mention. These young ladies all had more or less prominent parts and they sustained them well. Especial mention is due Miss Loulie Potter, for her most excellent piano accompaniments, which was in a large measure responsible for the success of the entertainment. We predict for this accomplished young musician a brilliant future. Mr. June H. Carr contributed in no small degree to the success of the en tertainment, by his assistance in ma nipulating the colored lights during the performance. The ladles of the Floral Club were much pleased with the result of the entertainment, they having realized a nice sum above expenses. The woman’s Club.

A movement is on foot to have a music festival at Limestone College next spring, If the interest taken In the matter by the people of Gaffney is sufficient to warrant such an un dertaking. The idea is to have tfte festival at the time the new pipe organ will be installed, and to have the course consist of about four con certs, given by the Limestone Col lege Choral Club, assisted by one of the famous singers now on the Amer ican concert stage, and given with the use of the new organ. The ob : ject of the festival will be to realize a sum of money to pay for the organ. Mr. Loring, the director of music at the college, has the matter In hand, and hopes that the interest In the matte? may be great among our Gaffney people, many of whom are interested in music, in the college, and especially in the beautiful new pipe organ which is to be placed in the Limestone College auditorium.
