dresses of the girls are of the simplest. Their cloaks likewise.
AMY ROBY. Deep-blue woolen dress. Little white apron with pockets. Dark-blue cloak with hood. LUCY BROWN. Dark-green woolen dress and cloak. TOM BUSH. Dark-brown flannel shirt. Dark-blue knee-breeches. JASON BROWN. Faded red flannel shirt. Dark-blue knee-breeches. FRANCOIS DURAND. Tan-colored flannel shirt. Dark-brown knee-breeches. Crimson sash-belt. NOCTAH. The usual Indian costume of buckskin. Fringed tunic. Long trousers. Moccasins, or imitation moccasins of khaki. (The suit should be of khaki also--the nearest imitation of buckskin.) He should wear a wig of long, coarse black hair. If this wig cannot be had, simulate it thus: make a tight-fitting skull-cap of black cheesecloth. Stitch it where the parting in the hair should come. Make two braids of plaited black cheesecloth, and fasten them to the skullcap so that they will fall over the ears. They should be bound with a few wisps of red and green. Noctah wears neither war-paint nor feathers, but his face and hands should be stained brown. DIRECTIONS FOR INDOOR ARRANGEMENT OF THE PAGEANT OF PATRIOTS |
