HIGH SCHOOL PLAYERS DO WE'LL
Present "Alabama" Before a Large
Audience at the Grand.

In one respect the presentation of
Augustus Thomas great southern
drama, Alabama" at the Grand last
night by members Of the June '0S dra-
matte society of the Topeka high
school set a mark far in advance OF
any other local amateur effort in the
atricals during the last few years: This
was in the staging of the play. For It's
four acts but two scenes are needed.
One of them is a small garden unpre-
tentious save for its Towering roses,
pansies and other growing things and
the other is the walled garden OF
more pretentious estate. Both OF these
scenes were set with beauty and an
attention to detail that is more often
distressingly missing in amateur
events. AS a matter of fact these two
scenes were quite as good to look at
as have been some of the prettiest ones
that the professional companies have
presented at the Grand.
OF course the credit for their excel
lence belongs to Miss Elinor Lincoln
under whose direction the piece was
staged and who coached those partici-
pating in the various roles. And their
efforts at acting showed that they had
been most carefully trained. All of
them read their lines with clear enun-
citation and with intelligence and the

SOCIAL FUNCTIONS

The fifth and final fortnightly dance
of the season, a series arranged by the
leaders of Newark's social set for the
debutantes n younger set, held in
Orator Hall last night, was the occa-
sion of a large gathering of prominent
society people, it being the last of the
large social events prior to the peniten-
tial season.
The cosy ballroom was made espe-
cially attractive with palms and potted
plants tastefully arranged about the
room. Palms screened the stage, where
Schweinfest's Orchestra played for the
program of dances. Ferns and tropical
plants made an appropriate setting for
the cosy corners and rest hooks which
were in great demand between the
dances. Not only were the younger
set in attendance but many of the mar
ried people were among the gay as
semblage.
The p~atronesses who arranged the
dances were: Miss Quinby, Mrs. Fran
