CRUSOE AND CHARADES!
(Continued from first page)
Stackpole, the curtain revealing her busy
mending socks "Mend."
In the second syllable the curtain re
vealed a doctor's office with the physician
at his desk (Mr. Malcolm). Presently
a young man (Mr. Nat S. Ilurd), with a
black eye, rushes in and takes a seat.
The physician then indulges in a careful
examination and finally bandages up the
head of his patient "I."
In the third syllable the curtain reveals
a young woman (Miss Stackpole) trying
to sharpen a pencil, but it is apparent
that she "Cant."
At the presentation of the full word,
the curtain reveals a very seedv individ
ual walking upon the street, (Mr. Ilurd)
without doubt, a beggar. Presently a
man passes (Mr. Malcolm) and the beg
gar holds out his hat, only to get a re
buff. A minute later a very sweet young
woman (Miss Stackpole) comes along,
and the beggar realizes that his time is
ripe and does his prettiest. A coin is the
result "Mendicant."
"Elocution."
The curtain reveals a figure robed en
tirely in black, bearing a monster "L"
"El."
The second syllable is invisible but not
inaudible, for a loud chorus of "Oh" is
heard "O."
In the third syllable a youth (Mr. Mal
colm) makes a desperate attempt to read,
but fails until he gets a cue "Cu."
In the last syllable the curtain reveals
three women seated in conversation (Miss
Tewksbury, Miss Bradbury and Mrs.
Burlington) but as the pantomine pro
gresses it is apparent to even the most
unobservant eye, that Mrs. Buffi ngton is
not "in our set;" that she is shunned -shun:
"Tion."
On the presentation of the full word
the curtain reveals a youth (Master Gil
man Croekett) standing upon a platform.
Directly behind him stood Mr. W. J.
C reveling of Trenton, N. J., entirely
concealed, but standing so that his hands
took the place of Master Crockett's. The
classic verse, "There was a little girl"
was read with such wonderful effect by
Mr. Warren, that there could have been
no question but that it was "Elocution."
"Metaphysician."
In the presentation of the first syllable
the curtain reveals a young man (Mr.
Malcolm) walking, evidently on Fifth
avenue. Presently he meets two young
women (Mrs. Buftington and Miss Stack
pole). Mrs. Buffington is evidently an
old friend, but Miss Stackpole is a
stranger, so the Fifth avenue stroller is
duly presented "Met."
In the presentation of the second syl
lable the curtain reveals the deck of a
steamer and a very "salty" and some
what swagger young woman (Mrs.
Crockett) is enjoying the clear, crisp air,
the exhiliration of it all, and the outlook
at well. It is great sport for a while and
then it isn't! The swagger young
woman stands it alone for a time and
then, spying a sailor, (Mr. Jillson) she
calls. The sailor knows what has hap
pened, he has seen it many times before,
and he rolls out with a swagger, but to the
numerous questions he says nothing more
and "A-A, sir!" in spite of the young
woman's protests "A."
In the last syllable the curtain reveals
a very sad-faced young man (Mr. Ilurd)
seated in his room or a hospital ward,
attended by the prettiest nurse imagin
able (Miss Priest). He has on a remark
able smoking jacket and a pair of woven
slippers that have, without doubt, come
from his "best girl." Surely with such
company and such adornments the young
man ought to be happy ; but he is a pipe
or cigarette dope and he is not contented.
He makes several ineffectual attempts to
reach a pipe which is hidden under the
table, and finally gets and lights it before
the pretty nurse makes the discovery.
She takes the pipe away. Then the
young man does strange things. First
he looks wildly about, then he rises and
runs his hands through his hair, and
finally throwing the nurse to one side,
has the worst kind of a fit, on the lloor.
"Doctor ! doctor Pscreams the frightened
nurse, and in response a physician rushes
in (Mr. E. C. Woodsideof Portland, Me.)
and the curtaian falls Fit, calls : "Phys
ician." In the presentation of the full word a
young woman (Miss Neales) meets a
physician on the street (Dr. Crockett)
who bows and turns back approvingly
after she has passed "Metaphysician."
"Cuaiitj."
The word "Charity" was presented by
shadow pictures, the first picture show
ing the two first syllables. A youth is
seated at a table (Master Gilman Crock
ett) and as he rises a youngster nearby
(Master Ketcham) pulls his chair away
and as a result he falls to the floor. A
"scrap" is naturally the result, in which
it is apparent that one of the boys gets a
solid blow in the eye "Cha(i)r-i."
The last syllable is depicted by a golf
instructor (Mr. Ilurd) and a pupil (Miss
Stackpole). It is apparent that the
trouble is over the tee "Ty."
In the presentation of the full word
the curtain reveals an alleged blind man
(Mr. Malcolm) stumbling along the
street. Presently he seats himself on the
curb and holds out his cup to the many
passers by. Many are called and few see
but at last a young woman (Miss Stack
pole) drops a coin, which the now
thoroughly seeing beggar, clutches glee
fully "Charity."
General excellence characterized the
presentations throughout, but the two
first presentations, "Intimidated" and
"Mendicant," were undoubtedly, the
best, taken as a whole. There were
special acts, however, in each of the
others, which were fully as eilective as
any of those given in the two charades
mentioned.
Following the charades, dancing was
enjoyed by the younger people, and light
refreshments were served by Manager
Kimball.
These informal social events have come
to be regarded as a weekly feature at
The Berkshire and they add much to the
enjoyment of life there.
