The senior class of Freedom Academy pre-
scented the drama "Bar Haven" Friday evening.
Dec. End, in the Grange hall, to an apprecative
audience. The hall was well filled, and many
former graduates were present. Freedom
Academy students are loyal to the institution
and on this evening. as usual, former graduates
furnished the music. They were Miss Wini-
fred Dodge, Mr.. Loren Stewart and Messrs
Dana and Seth Banton. In this respect Free
dom and Freedom Academy has always been
fortunate. Following is the cast:
Captain Hiram Hoppep an old fisherman,
Lee Kenney
Hardy Stone his helper, with ambi-
ton to be kates Everett Blanchard
Leo Bradley, in search of an heir,
William Sayward
Gideon Graham, wealthy rascal.
Chester Thompson
Rev. John Wesley Virgins, pastor at Bar
Haven, Everard Bryant
Cy Brackett who is fishing for fish and
Arbella, Claude Nutter
Mrs. WardeIl, of 1.-THE Manor"
Goldie Patterson
Florence Wardell, her daughter, Orrie Worth
Kate Wardell, who comes into her own,
Hazel Sparrow
Spray Hopper, the Captains daughter,
who laughs at love, Persis Wentworth
Arbella Wortendyke, between the devil
and the deep sea, Roberta Wig gin
All parts were we'll taken that it would
be difficult to single out any one as the best.
Perhaps mention might be made of Miss Pat
terson in the difficult role of the Widow War
dell. Mr.. Nutter appauded often in his
laughable attempt at courtship and his uncer-
tainty, at times, as to the object of his affec-
ton. Spray Hopper or Arbella Wortendyke
miss Wiggin.) Miss Arbella, in her bright
plaid shawl and wonderful bonnet, with two
little curls on each side of her face, was surely
an object to make poor fisherman forget his
fish, Those two fascinating little curls! One
could but wonder if they grew, or ere they
bought Mr.. Bryant as the fussy little pastor
of Bar Haven, was pleasing to the eye and IN
teresting to listen to-especially his Fourth of
July Grafton. His tact too, in getting out of
difficult situations with Miss Arbella could not
be excelled in real life. The entire evening
was a success and credit to the teachers, who
have been doing faithful work not only for
this class but the entire school. On Thursday
evening December 9Th the play will be given
in Waldo. 1t has been customary for the
seniors to give their drama in Freedom and to
go to some one of the surrounding towns.
They also sometimes play the second time at
home, and should they do so this year would
have full house.
