Successful Affair at Country Club

BY ESTHER GRIFFIN WHITE. That this city has a plethora of dramatic and musical talent for availability in amateur theatrics was again demonstrated on Saturday night when a successful vaudeville was given at the country club under the auspices of the March entertainment committee which included Miss Gwendolyn Foulke, who had charge of the arrangement of the program; Mrs. Paul Comstock, Mrs. James W. Judson, Mrs. Edgar F. Hiatt. Mrs. Platte Robinson, who was substituted for Miss Juliet Swayne who could not serve. Mrs. Wilbur Hibberd and the writer. A temporary stage had been made out of the South end of the dancing pavilion the curtain having a decorative effect in celebration of St. Patrick's season, the settings and the lighting being highly effective. The following program was presented in full and with amateur eclat, the numbers following each other with professional celerity, Mr. Paul Cornstock acting as stage manager. Each number was givtm a cordial and enthusiastic reception and several encores were responded to: Song Mr. Frank Braffett Hungarian Folk Dance Miss Kolp Mr. Dwight Ingram Golf Monologue Miss Esther Griffin White PLAY "The Workhouse Ward" by Lady Gregory Cast Mike Mclnerny Michael Miskell Paupers Mr. Wm. Dudley Foulke Mr. Piatt Robinson Mrs. Donohoe, a Country Woman. . . Mrs. Edgar F. Hiatt Clarinet Solo Mr. Roland Nusbaum Spanish Dance Miss Foulke Three Songs Mrs. Thomas R. Kaufman Mr. Frank Braffett sang in his usual form, his rich baritone being heard to advantage in songs of a popular character, Mr. Braffett being recalled tumultously but not appearing again. Miss Elizabeth Kolp and Mr. Dwight Ingram, who followed Mr. Braffett, in a Hungarian folk dance, made a picturesque effect witi their native costumes, gay in color, their interpretation of the dance, symbolic in character, being in character with its origin, and given with much verve and terpsichorean effect. If the program could be said to have had a piece de resistance, that would have been "The Workhouse Ward," written by Lady Gregory, the famous Irish playwright, who was in Richmond recently with "The Irish Players," in the latter's tour of this country, the cast, made up of Mr. William Dudley Foulke and Mr. Platte Robinson, as paupers and cronies, and Mrs. Edgar Hiatt as a sister of the characnap (to eHuoSce

ter impersonated by Mr. Foulke and who came to rescue the latter from the work-house but not succeeding because he refused to be parted from bis "pard," interpreting their roles with fine feeling tor the theatric verities and human quality of this moat delicious little comedy. Mr. Foulke, always "a favorite," as the press agents go, was delightful and was admirably supplemented by Mr.

Robinson, the rise of the curtain which discovered the two in cots being followed by great laughter. Mrs. Hiatt, one of this city's most accomplished amateurs, gave a clever interpretation to the role of the sister, her enunciation being especially noticeable. Mr. Roland Nusbaum. the clarinet soloist of the Symphony orchestra and a young musician of talent and brilliant promise, was one of the successes of the evening with his clarinet solo; the composition having much coloratura effect. He was accompanied by Miss Mildred Schalk who was accompanist throughout the evening. Miss Foulke. in a Spanish dance, was a brilliant and charming figure, her costume being stunning and her poses possessing superlative grace, Miss Foulke adding charm to the mere mechanics of the dance by her vivacious facial play and fascinating accompaniment of the castanets. Miss Foulke, indeed, dangerously rivaled a professional presentation and her performance was constantly punctuated with applause. The program closed with a genuine vaudeville "stunt" done by two professionals from Indianapolis brought here to illustrate the rag time songs of Mrs. Thomas R. Kaufman, Mrs. Kaufman herself playing her compositions which were full of that peculiar vivacity, go and swing characteristic of music of this class. Her number

This is an age of big buying and big selling and when you trade with the progressive dealer you get a cut . price that the other fellow can't afford to offer. Ttiat'ls alt there lav about It.
