McDonald birch, magician An Evening cf Spectacular and Awe-Inspiring Mystery Some time must be set aside from the daily routine of life for a bit of clean pastime, if we would be our best and do our best. Presi dent Tapley must have realized this when she included McDonald Birch, the magician^ among our entertain ment numbers. He was here Febru ary 13. Mr. Birch surely did know hu man nature’s love for beauty for he had the stage artistically decor ated with Oriental looking purple velvet. Realizing that this was in complete without flowers and that none had been supplied by the school, he took up a very handsome piece of cloth and, after shaking it out, deposited, to the amage- ment of all, a bunch of gorgeous flowers on the floor. He was a lover of his country for his next performance was a Hag with the stars and stripes, made from three silk handker chiefs, a red, a white and a blue one, passed through what seemed to be only a piece of newspaper. These feats captivated the audi ence and made them wonder v/hat other mystery could be revealed from the cloth and other ordinary things on the stage. The evening was indeed one of spectacular and awe-inspiring mystery” for there were continu al peals of laughter and expres sions of wonderment as one "pro found magic after another was dis played. —Lillie M Simians.
