BEAUTIFUL SHOW BY CHILDREN FOR OLD LADIES' HOME The children of South Tryon street who as a junior committee of theOld Ladies' Home, are working to payor the telephone at the Home, made their first money last night, in the presen tation of a pretty adaptation of 'Cin derella," the old but ever-loved fairy tale. An interesting and pretty adjunct to the "drama" were tableaux from "Mother Goose," and a representation of the season by four attractive young girls. . The play and the tableaux were giv en at the handsome residence of Mr. and Mrs. Charles L. Keerans on South Tryon street, Mrs. Keerans most kind ly and cheerfully lending her home one of spaciousness and elegance to the cause, and not only her home but herself and household. So interested was the neighborhood and friends in many other sections of the city in the personnel of the cast and the cause represented, that evjen the Keerans home was not large enough to accommodate the crowd which packed parlors and halls. The admission was a dime for .grown ups; half a dime for kids. There were $15 worth of both in the house a sum that the children of the committee, and the elder heads directing, Mrs. W. B. Ry der and Mrs. B. Rush Lee feel Very proud of. ' Miss Mary Durham and Miss Mary Alexander had charge of the curtain or folding doors as it happened to be last night, and Masters James Graham, Willard Keerans and others acted as doorkeepers. The rear parlor was used as a stage. It was prettily set for the several acts of "Cinderella," and the lights were effective and effectively managed by Mrs. Lee, Mrs. Keerans and Mrs. Ryder. Big red lamps with red shades, red shaded chandelier and a light from the "flies" made the tableaux par ticularly pretty. Owing to the youthful years of sev eral of the tableaux actors, the pro gram was reversed, their1 numbers be ing taken first. r - The doors opened on "A Bit of Knowledge," Master Frank i O. ; Lan dis, seated on a high pile of dictiona ries and lexicons of youth, in cap and gown, big spectacles, with eyes bent on a book in his hand. He was one of the hits of the evening. , Second tableaux, Master Piatt Wal ter Landis, "Sailor Boy"; very good; third, Master Parks Dalton, "Bare foot Boy", cute and natural in overalls, bare feet,' farmer's hafcvand fishing rod; fourth, "Little Miss Muffett" Miss Edna Carson, cunning and' pre t- Read All the Latest Fiction I 2c Per Day. .

Older representatives which were particularly good were "Vanity Fair," Miss Calvine Scott, and "Peasant Girl," Miss Helen Fricker. Miss Clara Adams as "Columbia" also made a fine tableau. The Seasons. Then came the tableau of the sea sons: "Spring," represented by. Miss Ade laide Caldwell in a pale green silk embroidered in pink roses, ; gold slip pers, hair twined with pearls, and holding an armful of big pink roses. "Summer," jepresented by Miss Elizaheth Keerans, white tarlatan with shower of pink rose buds over her dress and around the neck, roses in her hair, and holding a spray of roses in one hand; pink slippers. "Autumn," Miss Hamlin Landis, in flowing robe of white crepe, and big bunches of red autumn leaves in her arm, and sprig of leayes in her red slippers. "Winter," Miss Virginia Ryder in white silk skirt, long white fur coat, white, fur cap and muff, with diamond dust covering her hair and dress as.if she had steped from under a shower of it from some big box. The effect was beautiful, a prettier "Winter" seldom beautiful, a prettier "Winter" seldom being seen. , Cinderella.
