The front half of the lower floor had been set aside as. a stage to give plenty of room for the drill maneuvers. A large purple velvet drop and a raised divan lighted with soft tinted lamps in Shrine colors formed a throne from which officers of Murat and Mispah temples watched the performance In state. Sailors Give Concerts. The Naval Recruiting band gave a splendid concert preceding the Shrine performance. Following the concert one of the sailors gave a recruiting talk. The Shrine Heralder blew a. lusty blast on his bugle promptly at eight p. m., and Mlspah's Oriental band entered the arena. A second call from the heralder and the dervishes from Murat entered playing "Peggy". Their white capes formed a splendid contrast to the bright-colored costumes of the other Shriners. Hejaz Rahouis next entered the stage, followed by the Murat Chanters, Murat Bugle corps, and Gun Squad, end Murat Patrol. With slow half-time music, Poten tates Gay, of Murat Temple, and Potentate Gumpper, of Mispah temple, followed by their divans, took their places on the raised platform.

A wandering Arab next stole in fol lowed by his great dromedary. The great , camel was supported by the sturdy legs of two Shriners and the stuffed beast was heartily applauded.

Hejaz Rahouis and Pearl Allen of Murat Temple gave a "queer, quaint" oriental dance tfi&t caused many men in the audience to crane their necks, and then look sheepish when the dancers pulled off their wigs and showed carefully parted masculine hair. Frank Holland, popular local singer, was a decided hit with his singing of, "Let the Rest of the World Go By," and was called back to repeat the chorus.
