Those who attended the Mae Shumway Enderly evening at Spurgeon's Hall last night were delighted with the program rendered by Mrs. Enderly.  Mrs. Enderly is a beautiful woman, and with her musical and dramatic talent well fills an evening.  Her last number, sung in a rich contralto, was an aria from 
Un Ballo in Maschera,
 from Verdi's grand opera.  This was sung in gypsy costume and was given with splendid dramatic effect.—

The Spanish Student,
 as given by the Shumway Enderly Company at the Auditorium on last Thursday night, was one of the most artistic entertainments ever given in Clovis.  Mrs. Enderly possesses rare genius and dramatic power in addition to a charming personality, and each number in the program rendered by her was a gem.—

Mae Shumway Enderly is a dramatic reader and impersonator of rare ability, and in the various characters which she essayed in the monologue play, 
The Spanish Girl,
 her acting and pantomime work was wonderful for its naturalness and force, and showed deep study.  The costuming was also exceptionally fine.—

One of the most pleasant Eastertide functions engrossing society was the recital given by Mrs. Mae Shumway Enderly.  Mrs. Enderly gave readings from Sheldon's 
Romance,
 Maeterlinck's 
Blue Bird
 and 
Love in a Dutch Garden.
  As a closing number she gave an Irish monologue and song en costume, with harp accompaniment.  Mrs. Enderly is a clever artist.  Her work shows finish and versatility, which, coupled with prepossessing personality and a voice of dramatic power, delighted her hearers.—

Mrs. Mae Shumway Enderly won well-deserved applause in the Young Woman's Christian Association Auditorium Saturday night in a musical and dramatic role.  Mrs. Enderly is a dramatic reader and entertainer of marked ability.  Her impersonations are true to life.  Her readings are natural, impressive and her personality is in every way attractive.  She has won for herself a place in the front rank of entertainers.—

The Brides of Peasant Countries



OWING to the state of war which exists among European countries our attention is centered upon the people who are bearing the heaviest part of the burden of suffering, the peasantry.  The people of Europe are divided into three great classes—the upper, the middle, and the peasantry.  The upper and the middle class live and dress much as do our wealthy and cultured Americans, but the peasantry still retain their century old customs, and their quaint and picturesque style of dress.




Mrs. Enderly will wear the costume, describe the wedding of some of the more important peasant countries, and briefly explain their significance.  Each district has developed a style of dress and wedding ceremony peculiarly its own.  Mrs. Enderly describes the essential differences, giving the folk songs, stories, and national airs.  The costume changes are completely and rapidly made.






Mrs. Mae Shumway Enderly, a delightful reader, gave a series of descriptions of the marriage customs of a dozen European countries, including Norway, Sweden, Germany, France, Holland and Italy, and for each she wore the typical bridal costume of the peasant girl, the national airs being played during the recital, the program proving most charming and worth while.—
