IT EASTER PAGEANT
CHILDREN OF JESSE LEE HOME
PRESENT WHOLESOME AND
INTERESTING ALEGORY
A beautifully solemn service, re
flecting careful training and a person
al interpretative touch, on the part of
the young actors and actresses marked
the Easter Pageant, presented by the j
students of the Jesse Lee Home Sun-1
day afternoon at the Liberty theatre. 1
The Pageant represented three phas-J
es of the life of Christ—the cruc:fiix-|
ion, resurrection and the message He ,
left to all mankind. J
i i
Each episode was portrayed in a j
manner reflecting great credit upon ;
: the teachers who trained the children j
and an equal amount of credit upon j
those to whom more than mere spec* j
tacular parts had been assigned.
Another marked feature was the
! splendid singing in solo and chorus,
■ revealing many well-modulated voices i
which blended perfectly in difficult
shadings and tone quality, in the as
cending strophes and anti-strophes,
the sopranos being well supported bv
j perfect altos.
The costuming—habilaments of the
J period of Christ—presented an illu- j
J sion which took one back to the epoch
1 when the Savior walked upon earth, j
J The ensemble upon the stage pre-!
I seated a pretty picture in the mul-;
I ticolored raiment and all those who at-1
| tended received real enjoyment from
J the effort put forth to correctly por-'
< tray the story and at the same time i
1 please the audience.
Practically every member of the
i cast had lines assigned to them, and
each took his or her cue promptly and i
made the best of each opportunity, j
Benny Benson, the Home hero,'
i
gave startling dramatic effect to the
part assigned to him as the patri
arch waiting at the Roman gate to
speak personally with the Savior.
Practically all of the seats in the
theatre were filled and gauged by evi
dences of liberality a goodly sum was
rceived in the collection period, which
will l>e used to defray the expenses of
Mrs. Woodcock to Alaska in appre
i
ciation of her work in securing $60,
i
000 for the erection of a building at
I the Home.
i
; The Pageant served to show that
there are many good voices among the
j children that may be developed into
a splendid chorus or choir.
