Easter Sunday was celebrated at Arroyo with an entertainment given by the Alameda County Hospitals Federation, under the direction of Capt. W.I. Day and August Miller. The entertainment was one of the best ever given by thi s helpful organization and was a very complete affair, consisting of speeches by E.F. Garrison, county auditor, August Miller, Capt. Day, Dr. Jesse B. Schafhirt and Dr. Chesley Bush and musical selections by a large number of entertainers who journeyed out to Arroyo to make this occasion an enjoyable one for the patients.

The following report of the program is sent by our Arroyo correspondent: "The Hawaiian orchestra was first on the program, and gave us the latest thing in string music that was full of tantalizing tunes and weird notes. Jerry's jazz orchestra followed with a fine of jazz that proved them to be past masters in the art of dispensing this brand of music.

"A violin solo by Miss Laura Warnock, accompanied by Miss Catherine Thornton, was loudly encored and had to be played all over again before the enthusiastic audience would be satisfied. Miss Thornton gave us something that was classical in her piano solo and was quite a change from the syncopated variety that comprised the balance of the program.

"Geo. A. Warnock touched our hearts with his sweet melody and had the large hall echoing with applause when he rendered "Mother Machree." Mr. Davidson created bushels of mirth, with his catchy song, "She's Pretty and She Knows It. "Capt. Day concluded the performance by giving Easter service and preached a very impressive sermon on the Golden Rule, and how to apply it to every day life.

"Songs and music were given for the patients in the infirmary who were unable to attend the services and each patient was presented with flowers and individual baskets of Easter eggs. The whole program was a great success and we are more than grateful to those who made this occasion possible."
