The Spcndtlirift.''

In the "Spendthrift" given at the
oregon last evening local people saw
an exceedingly we'll written and we'll
presented play. 1t is the sort of a
play that is we'll for people to see
since it deals with a problem in do
nestle life that is hard for many to
solve.
As Frances Ward, Doris Mitchell
plays the role of a silly society struck,
selfish and e~Xtravagant woman She
portrays her part excellently. AS the
suffering husband Lionel Adams is
likewise about all that could be de-
sired and the rest of the cast is also
GOOD, particularly Mrs. Ferguson and
Aunt Gretchen and Gwendolen Piers,
as the spendthrift's sister.
The "Spendthrift' rs given by the
Frederic Thompson troupe is not a
STACEY play. The stormy climaXes are
sufficiently modulatcd and there is lit
tie ranting, Yet there are many strong
passages in the play and the natural
ness with which they We're presented
added both to the effeCtivness of the
play and to the charm OF the enter
tainmcnt.
The author of the Spendthrift has
wholesome and properly balanced
views of life and he need not be
ashamed of the troupe that is render
ing his production.

You have all read in history of how

less condition of the enemy. This
delightful film story explains the
mystery. The ~insolent General Rain
invades Trenton with his Hessian ar
and takes up his headquarters at
the home of a little patriot girl. He
and his officers celebrate Christmas
in a drunken carousal. The girl DIS
guises herself in the uniform of a
British officer and alone crosses the
Delaware and informs Washington of
the state of affairs. We see Wash
ington's army crossing the Delaware
in open boats, carefully working their
way through the floating ice, their
heads bowed to the raging storm. We
see his brave little army on their
nine mile march through the driving
sleet and snow of the bitter winters
night. The Hessian sentinel discovers
the Americans and bursts into the
room, shouting: THE enemy is
here! To arms!"
But he is too late. General Rain
and his officers awaken at break of
day to find the room filled with AM
erican soldiers and he is forced to
surrender. Washington and his Off
GERS line up and salute the little pa
triot girl who has dared to do such
