THE PLAYS
Miss MacGavock's class in express
sion gave four plays Saturday night,
beginning with very pleasing little
play by the primary department and
ending with play by the graduates in
expression, Misses Milllken, Loretta
Dunbar, and Jimmie Curd, assisted by
Mr.. Luther Gadberry.
The first play, maids of All Ma
tions," represented bachelor, imper-
sonated by Master Alfred Pretzel, who
had travelled the world over and seen
the most beautiful women of every
nation, and in his meditations they all
pass before him, each in her native
foo furo ap1 costume Ac aaob aDDaarS
to him he recalls some pleasing at
Effectiveness of that purticular nation
and feels a tenderness for every one.
But at last the true American girls ap-
pears and TO her he gives his heart. 1t
was very beautifully carried out.
The next play was short and very
humorous one, "A Horse of Another
Color, by Miss Milliken and Mr..
Luther Gadberry. 1t appears that
Mrs. Summers Winters miss Milliken)
by mistake called in one Justin Tyne
veterinarian(Mr. Gadberey) to see her
husband who was i'll. AS she describes
her husbands symptoms, her love for
him, etc., the veterinarian thinks she
has reference to her horse and shows
great surprise at what she has been
feeding him. The play continues in
this humorous vein of misunderstanding
until after the veterinarian has perform
ed an operation on the horse and killed
him, and has announced the fact to
Mrs Summers. When she finds out
that it is the horse that is dead, and
not her husband, her seeming grief
turns to great Indignation.
The third play was entitled "Per
Telephone. F" 1t represents very try
ing situation that Miss Nan Cuzzin
Miss Ollie Crockett) and Mr.. Guy
Harling Luther Gadberry) get into on
account of newly installed telephone.
Mr.. Harling is just about to go on a
long voyage abroad and desires to pro-
pose to Miss Cuzzin before he
leaves. Every time he gets
ready to say the word the phone
rings and Miss Cuzzin must answer it.
At last bright idea occurs to him. He
will propose by telephone on his way tc
the station, so he takes his leave.
But when he calls up, Miss Mary Hal
/ come, Mans cousin. loretta Dunbar)
answers the phone. By mistake he
proposes to her and is accepted. About
the time the two girls have discovered
the mistake and are each in despair over
it. Miss Halcome's long lost sweet.
heart appears and claims her. But she
is now engaged to Mr.. Harling and can
not accept him. Soon however, Mr..
Harling, on account of his train being
delayed appears again, the misunder'
standing is cleared up, and all are hap.
DIV. Another interesting character,
who helped to make up the connecting
links of the play was Nora, an lrisf
maid, represented by Miss Mabel Hind
mad.
