BETHANY GIRLS IN PLAY
Senior Glass Presents Merchant of
Venice Creditab1y.

One of the important events of the
commencement week at Bethany col
lege was the play given by the senior
girls in the study hall last night. The
Merchant of Venice was selected by
the girls as the medium for their
histrionic effort and although the
Shakespearian roles were quite heavy
the girls played their parts with a
careful appreciation that was remark
able. Miss Ruth Price as Shylock
displayed marked ability as the crafty,
misery Jew. Miss Grosvenor Colver,
as Antonio, Miss Mildred Poindexter,
as Bassanio, and Miss Jesse Critch-
field, as Portia, won the repeated
plaudits of the audience. Miss Julia
Piersol, who has charge of the de-
partment of elocution at Bethany, had
charge of the rehearsals for the play
and much credit for the success of the
play belongs to her. Miss Grosvenor
Colver and Miss Helen Hazlett were
members of the cast who do not
graduate but who receive diplomas in
elocution. Bernice Kingsbury as
Launcelot was the only other member
of the cast who does not graduate this
year. The cast for the play follows:
Shylock ............ Ruth M. Price
Duke of Venice =.
Salarino Oliver Laderer
Antonio .. Grosvenor Colver
Bassanio NO.. Mildred Poindexter

At the conclusion of the play last
night the visitors at the college spent
considerable time in the art gallery of
the college where some of the best eff
forts of the Bethany students pro-
duced during the year were on dis
play. Mrs. Wormswick, the instructor
in the art department has charge of
the art exhibit Some of the draw
ings are excellent. Several portraits
from life attracted a great deal of at
tention.

The Kindergarten

An interesting meeting of the
mothers of the kindergarten chill
dren was held at the coy rooms
that Miss Decker has engaged for
her school. The school has grown
considerably since the opening, and
if many mothers OF little ones not
in tie circle could only have been
present Friday, they would have
been stirred to appreciation By an
inspection of the good work done
by the children.
To one unacquainted with kin
dergarten work and the wonder
fully good result it works cannot
conceive It's Importance or realize
what the system means.
Long before the writer knew
from experience what mother love
was, she liked to read the life of
Froebel and dwell upon his work.
1t seemed beautiful that such a
master mind should lend its whole
powers to devIslng system OF
training that would be developed
in play. His own dreary child
hood drove him to a mighty effort
to make the lives of other children
less drearY and how we'll he sue
ceeded every mother of a kinder
garten child can aver.
Obedience, attention, coneentra-
ton, moral training, physical cul-
ture are all brought IN, always IN
attractive form, while the rudi-
ments of nature study, music,
drawing, clay modelling, paper
folding and a lot more besides are
taught the plant mind. And it ls
amazing to see how we'll these tots
accomplish the work allotted them.
1t is a pleasing sight TO see the
circle, led by Miss Decker, and is
one that gladdens the heart.
his kluue1Sd W0Fk is
thought SO necessary TO primary
education that it is included IN the
public school work of all large
cities. 1t is given as much i'm
portance as any other grade. and.
these classes are always largely
attended.
May Miss Decker receive the
encouragement and patronage che
SO we'll reserves.
Too much cannot be said in
praise of this earnest young woman
and OF the great benefit she is now
offering to the mothers as we'll as
the little ones of Coyington.

in previous issue that shortly
1t would become the home of his
charming BRIDE, Miss Alicia
O'NeiI, yet, through an oversight,
we failed to announce the marriage
last week. The following account
of the wedding Is taken from the
PicaYune of last Sunday, which
also published photographs of the

prosperous young merchant OF
Covington, ST. Tammany Parish.
A host of friends accompanied
the bridal party to the Church of
the Holy Name of Jesus. where

With burst of melody of the
great organ in wedding march,
Assistant Fire Chief O'Neil, the
uncle of the bride, led Miss O'Nell
to the altar, attended by Miss
Rosa Byrd, the maid of honor,
and presented the charming little
lady to the groom, who was &C.
companied by Nums Hsbert, the
best man. For the occasion the
bride was gowned IN rich cham
payne, piped In blue satin, with
silver trimmings, and gloves and
hat to harmonic. Miss Byrd wore
dress of bright tan, with brown
silk and velvet trimmings. After

early winter months, parents of croupy
children should be ON the alert for
ominous symptoms. There is no cause
for anxiety, however. when Chamber

home. II this medicine is given as
soon as the child becomes hoarse or
even after the croupy cough has ap-
peared, the attack may be warded of.
Mrs. s. Rosenthal, of Turner, Michi-

There has been some comment
ON the fact that the new CovlngtoD
bank building is being constructed
by outside contractors, instead of
being awarded to some of the resi-
dent builders of the parish. Feel
ing certain that there must have
been some Misunderstanding IN the
matter, we sought for information
and were told that there had been
no discrimination in the matter
whatever. That bids had been
asked, and that resident contractors
had decided that $4,000 was the
least that they could bid under the
plans and specifications.
As the present contractors are
4rectng the building at a cost of
49, 800, 1t would be out of the
question to expend $685.
