Thst's fine new hat that Frank Keller
is wearing these days. Not because Frank
doesn't occasionally have new hat, but
because the occasions are so rare that he
doesn't have to purchase them himselfis
the cause of this special mention. Abe
Simonds furnished the hat, which is of
the Woodrow Wilson variety, and that is
the reason Frank wears it so CALAMITY.

the, would-be society leader" acted her
part splendidly, while Miss Norma Strong,
as Miss Edith Morton, her neice," and
Miss Frances Noble, as "Miss Mabel
West, friend of Miss Norton" render
ed their parts faultlessly. Miss Lena
Boyce, as" Miss Mccarthy, the Irish maid |
servant was perfection and the two
male characters, Ernest Stewart, as Lord |
Chelsea. English nobleman," and Ken |
meth Fairbanks, as Jack Earle, happy !
go-lucky fellow" were at ease in the rem !
dition of their parts. The costumes were |
fine and the stage settings very good,
considering the lack of appropriate seen
cry for such play. Some day, perhaps |
we'll have some good indoor scenery and
not have to "take to the woods" every
time we look at the stage. The music
for the occasion was furnished by Miss
DeNio and Prof. Crosby. 1t was well
rendered and heartily applauded The
proceeds, a good sum, goes to the class
