The L. B. C. sewing circle was
formed yesterday afternoon from the
members of the Lolette Burr Bible
class of the First Methodist church.
South. Officers were elected, as fol-
lows: Mrs. R. C. Ehlert, president;
Mrs. J. R. Guyton, vice president; Mrs.
W. R. Snead, secretary; Mrs. J. Austin
Smith, treasurer.
Women members of the class are in-
vited to join this organization, which
will meet next Wednesday to sew, for
charity. On Monday afternoon a meet-
ing will be held at the residence of
Mrs. Burr.
A dress rehearsal will be held this
afternoon by the children taking part
in the pageant to be staged at the
city auditorium tomorrow night. Re-
hearsals have been held for the past
two months and the children know
their parts perfectly.
The history of Galveston will be
depicted in the pageant and important
events connected with the city for
the past 100 years will be realistically
reproduced. The proceeds from the en-
tertainment will beturned over to the
Galveston Playground association for
equipping one or more playgrounds for
the children of the city.
The opening scene will show Gal-
veston as it appeared 100 years ago.
It will be historically correct, show-
ing an outline of the island and the
vegetation. The actors in this scene
will be the sand fiddlers, which were
the only inhabitants of the island at
that time.
Next comes the Caroncahua Indians,
the first known human inhabitants.
This tribe traveled more than 200 miles
to get fresh fruit, such as pineapples,
oranges and other tropical and semi-
tropical fruits which at that time grew
in great abundance on the island. They
were also great fishermen and gath-
ered oysters, crabs and fish in the
waters adjacent to Galveston. Among
the features of this part of the enter-
tainment will be the native dance, a
cannibal feast and a religious dance.
Lafitte and his crew will arrive and
entertain the audience for the third
scene and will be followed by the ref-
ugees from the mainland who were
feeling from the Mexican army which
hadinvaded the state prior to the bat-
tle of San Jacinto. These were the
real settlers of the island. These peo-
ple came to Galveston island because
it was hard of access from the main-
land and they also had hope of being
rescued by passing boats.
A short intermission will take place
following the fourth scene, the El
Mina Shrine band arid the Queen the-
ater orchestra furnishing music. The

act will show Galvie Stone, played by
Miss Sarah Ellen Davidge, looking for
the treasure of the island. The good
fairy of the island will point out the
treasure and a sand fiddler will help
her dig it up. The dance of the ole-
anders will signify the rejoicing over
the finding of the treasure.
The treasure materializes into all
the beauties of Galveston. Beauty will
be represented by flowers; Industry by
shipping, etc. Helen Dolson will give
a gypsy dance to signify the immi-
gration to the island. Galvie Stone
and Foreign Commerce will dance a
military one-step which will be follow-
ed by the grand march with Wilma
