An Oriental band, which played distilled melodies of the desert, lured the crowd into the harem tent.

ticket should admit me to two shows, but I bad no luck. I lingered as long as I could and I satisfied myself that I was the first one in and the last one out. And what a shock I had. On the outside of the tent were two coppers in 'uniform. I always knew that the police force would go in for classical dancing. Seriously speaking the potentn Cs harem show is a clever little classical dancing exhibit. It lends class and distinction to the Shriners’ great bazaar. HICK SADLY DISAPPOINTED. After seeing the show I needed something cool and refreshing. I noticed a sign over a show w -ich read, “Rebecca’s Well.” Mrs. Arnold Spencer was presiding over the destiny of the well. But the well quenches no thirst. Eskimo pies ami pop are sold at another counter. Then I chased over to ‘‘The l’ride of

the Harem.” Gosh,- how I like anything that sounds Oriental! So 1 unrolled another section of my maznma roll which I had purchased from a “banker” with a fez. Then I rushed in. Now I tell you that the Pride of the Harem was a regular mountain of beauty. There were tons of beauty there. Oh, I say tons and tons of beauty! She spoke not neither did she eat Eskimo pie. Then the master of ceremonies yelled . “Exit on the other side,” so I exited before the I’ride of the Harem could vamp me. I clutched my bank roll and started for the race. On my way, C. Roltare Eggleston asked me, “Have you tasted the Eskimo pie yetir” And quoth I: “Roltare, when I eat Eskimo pie it is going to me in my home. 1 have a sentimental idea that such pleasure is for the home alone.” And the great magician of the Shriners smiled and said no more.

Then I heard more melody and a trip to the west end of the bazaar resulted in me seeing the Shriners’ Saxophone Sextette playing in front of the “Desert Rose” booth.
