Willingness and desire on the part of
local professionals K adhere to the
long side of the market. There is ample
wheat in sight to take care of any
demand which is likely to arise, and in
the meantime growing crop conditions

GAVE CUPID AT VASSAR

Last night before an audience OF
400 people the A. @. X. w. g. A. staged
that laughable comedy Cupid at Vas
sar. This is a play in four acts, cali
ing for a cast of fourteen people.
Mary DoTve as Hank Gubben, had
a ludicrous makeup and furnished
some good pantomime acting and
comedy, closely seconded by Louise
Poland as Amos North, the impetuous
lover. Kate Newton, the heroine OF
the play, was pleasingly portrayed by
Lucille Morris, while Wanda Carol,
her jealous rival, was we'll taken by
Lena Honnett. The other members OF
the cast were very acceptable.

in getting these children to want to go

OF the kindergarten to do this very
thing.
The kindergarten has taught us that
