—Life passes us by quickly.

serious cnce are not important
now
Miss Merrem’s primary and
junior Expression pupils appear-
ed Tuesday night in a fascinat-
ing fairy story: “The Peddler of
Hearts” The audience was more
than pleased with the result of
Miss Merrem’s careful training
and painstaking attention to min-
or as well as major parts. The
little tots, as well as the b;g ones
played with an earnestness and
vim that was beautiful to see.
The costumes were particular-
ly pleasing. It see.med almost
impossible that such small chil-
dren could be trained to appear
so well. Their ease and poise was
the occasion of much favorable
comment. A pleased spectator
was beard to remark that Shiner
had always possessed such splen-
did talent musical as weli as liter
.
■ary, and the younger set of
Tuesday night give promise of
keeping up the standard of ex-
cellent entertainments for the
future. The youthful orchestra
was indeed a.surprise. It seems
impossible that so much could
be accomplished by Miss Stella
Wolters in such a' short time.
Those of her puoilswho gave
such splendid numbers were:
Edwin Busch, Victor Dziewas,
Walter Garbade and little Ray-
mond Dierksen, violins. Elmer-
Schulze, saxapbone. Olga Kasper
piano. Susie Perry, Evelyn
Dreyer and Miss Wolters violins.
Those who interpreted the
Fairy Play Were Roxie Bitske,
Brooxie Me Elroy, Ella Stratt
man, Willie Hazel Monroe, Evel-
yn Dreyer, Mae Rogge, Georgia
Baca, Susie Perry. Roy Mewes,
James Buske, Carlton and Maxie
