Again in the evening a grown up audience applauded and chortled over feats apalling and amusing, accomplished by Wilford and his young lady assistant. Pres. Herman C. Goates open ed the evening performance with a short speech of appreciation and welcome. Prayer was offer ed by Leo Hadf ield. Wilford, the magician, then welcomed the audience, which filled the large auditorium. "Some may use magic to fool you," he explained, "I will use magic to entertain you." A variety of conjuring acts were done, Wilford doing his own verbal announcing, his expert showmanship holding the crowd in a receptive mood throughout. From the rabbit out of the empty hat,, to the girl coming out of the small doll house; from the rope which seemed to repair itself, to the tying of two girls with ropes, then fanning the knots away, it was impossible; but he did it. A spectacular substitution sub-stitution of himself in place of the girl in the trunk was reminiscent remin-iscent of the art of Haudini in such acts. A mind reading act left several of those present dazed and wondering. won-dering. Their names and questions ques-tions were revealed, arid answers given. However it was done, the advice was good, leaving old and young in a ha"ppy frame of mind. The effect of the whole performance per-formance was wholesome and challenging. Proceeds of the performance will be used toward the building of a main basement entrance to the tabernacle. Although not yet completely counted, Pres. Goates estimates the returns to amount to approximately $1000. He stated that the stake presidency presi-dency will confer immediately with the church architect, so that plans may toe drawn up at once. Funds from other benefits are at hand, and Pres. Goates expresses ex-presses the intention of an early start on construction, possibly within thirty days. He repeats the appreciation of the Stake Presidency to all those who sold tickets and helped in any way to put the. project over, as well as to all who subscribed to the fund.
