NORMAL SENIORS TO
The PIPER
POPULAR cHILDREN's RHYME TO
FURNISH THEME or COMING
CLASS PLAY At THE STATE
scHooL-WlLL BE GIVEN WITH
FULL CASTE.

Al children's rhyme will furnish the
theme of the annual senior class play.
which will be given during the latter
part of mex month. The play, The
Piper, by Josephine Preston Peabody,
which won the prize at the Memorial
theatre at Stratford, is full of the att
mosphere Of old Germany in the year
1884 when the rats and mice infested
the famous little town of Hamelin. In.
1884. the inscription in the old town
says, there appeared a piper, clad in
many-colored garments and led away
the children who never returned.
The play is clearly dependent upon
the poem of Robert Browning, yet the
story is treated in an exceedingly fresh
and original way, with many new
characters including children and
grown up people. and demands a much
larger canvas for its portrayal. The
play appeals to all classes of people
and as a child play is one of the most
beautiful that has ever been written.
1t is a play with strength and beauty
and is aglow with living dramatic i'm
terest.
The Piper will be presented by a full
caste of characters selected from
among the students of the normal
school, with elaborate setting, and
special costumes and music. The rights
of performance of the play are care
fully copyrighted and it can be played
only with a payment of a high royalty.
Hence special attention will be given
to its preparation and everything pos
sible be done to make the drama at
