The bright and pretty comedy "a Scrap
of Paper" will be presented by amateurs
at the Guards Hall on next Saturday
evening. A stage is being built especially
for this occasion and special scenery has
been manufactured. The stage is to be
erected a the western end of the hall.
The scenery that will be placed in posi-
ton is dainty and pretty, and the per-
Torrance will be staged with a careful at
tention to detail that is rarely present in
amateur productions. The rehearsals have
been under the direction of Miss Susan
Olmstead, whose personal attention has
been given to every detail of situation and
dialogue. The result, it is hoped, will be
as nearly dramatic treat as amateurs
are capable of giving. The cast is as fol-
