' ' MISS MATHILDA C. SINGER Miss Singer was prominent in coach ing the members for the event and also had entire charge of training the children for the fairy dance in the mountain scene, which was a marked success last night. Miss Singer also made the wings for the fairies, super vising the costumes in many ways. Last night she was generously ap plauded for her splendid presentation of the saint who gave up a throne to enter the religious life and through hor work secured the Christianizing of pagan Germany. Costumes and Scenery Fine The costumes and scenery were ex ceptional features for amateur per formances. Rev. Raphael Fuhr, O. F. M., pastor of the church, spared no ex pense in making the event a success. The play opened with a scene near the royal castle of King Richard I, fol lowed by one at Winborn abbey, a mo nastic school, and a pagan scene in the Hartz mountains, with the Goddess Frieda in a cave. A convent school was also given in the play. The costumes of the queens, Editha, Wlaburga's mother, and young Wal burga herself, after she was made queen, following the death of her father and later of her sister, Ade linda, to whom she gave the crown on entering the convent, were very beau tiful. The musical program rendered be tween the acts was a pleasurable part of the evening. A professional or chestra rendered the program of classic music arranged by Father Raphael. Among the prominent young women in the cast were Misses Bertha Orth, Mathilda Singer, Florence Dick, Lola Buhr, Marie Lindenken, Clara Trabert, Edith Kraft, Katherlne Creed, Eva rfessel, Agnes Scholl, Sophie Roos, Margaret Schmltt, Anna Lesslng, Katherine McDonald, Mary Knauff, Marie Hoemer, Ruby Herrlman, Dor othy Caspary, Mary Fisher, Mary Elmers, Mary Suck, Adela Orth and Elizabeth Mauch.

SURMOUNT TROUBLE IN JAWBONE STRIP THIRTY-SIX TUNNELS WILL BE t BORED Board of Public Works Members Find That Mulholland's Engineers Have the Preliminary Work Well In Hand President Albert Hubbard of the board of public works and Inspector of Public Works D. K. Edwards made a personal Inspection thla week of the proposed work at Jawbone canyon, one of the expensive sections of the Owens aqueduct lines. Big engineering obstacles confront the engineers here and the best men In the Southern Pacific service are now assisting that company In carry- Ing out Its contract to run a branch line to that point within sixty days. All topographical difficulties have been conquered by Chief Engineer William Mulholland and his staff, who have surveyed and resurveyed the route which the aqueduct will pursue. As the section is many miles from civilization there are many difficulties In the way. There are some fairly level mesas of clay or cemented grav els, and here construction will not be so difficult. But where sides of moun tains are traced and where canyons must be spanned or bridged by Bteei syphon flumes and where peaks sud denly obstruct the line tunnels must be dug through the peaks, and the en tire work will cost about $3,000,000. Thirty-six tunnels must be driven In this section, one of which will be one mile In length. This bore Is several hundred feet beneath the summit of a mountain. Three different contractors will prob ably do the Jawbone work, as it has been divided into the Red rock, Jaw bone and Pine sections, and it will re quire at least two and a half years to finish the contract.

All this haa been accomplished during the panic, Which means great prosper ity for this club when normal business conditions are resumed. BIG BIRDS GIVE EDITORS ALL A FRIENDLY WELCOME The members of the Southern Cali fornia Press association visited the Cawston ostrich farm at South Pasa dena Tuesday, and the ostriches took to the editors like fish to water, which was explained by the quantities of tidbits the editors distributed with lav ish hand. The editors met William J. Bryan, Kaiser Wilhelm, MaJ. McKinley and the other notable old birds. They were shown the mysteries of the big feather factory, the incjbator, the fireproof storage warehouse, with its reserve supply of feathers valued nt hundreds of thousands of dollars, and other features. These editors agree that the Cawston ostrich farm is one of the notable sights of Southern California. Herald Patterns AN ATTRACTIVE SHIRTWAIST FHOCK FOR A Cllil. For the young girl's wear there is nothing quite so satisfactory as the shirtwaist dress, and the new tub fabrics are excellent for itß develop ment. The model sketched is one of excellent style, though extremely sim ple in construction. The plain blouse waist, with its turndown "Peter Pan" collar and jaunty breast pocket, is the most popular of the new models, while the panel effect in the skirt is most becoming, lending- height and slender ness to the wearer. The skirt is a new five-gored, fitting smoothly over the hips and flaring widely at the hem. For trimming, bands of embroidery, braid or stitched folds of the material may be used; or the skirt may be left plain. Linen, pongee, silk or sicillienne would develop nicely by this mode, the 15-year size requiring 3% yards 24 Inches wide for the waist and 4% yards 27 inches wide for the skirt. Two patterns: 4346—Four sifces, 14 to 17 years. 4847—Four sizes, 14 to 17 yeara. The price of these patterns is 20 cents, but either will be sent upon receipt of 10 cents. <*> OKDGK BLANK <s> <£> The price of this ' pattern 'la 10 <$ & cents.
