M|CHAELS PLAY
 MAKES b|G HIT
Miss Snodgrass Wins Prize for Fifth Act. High School Boys and Girls Show Evidence of Talent In Present Action

Country Boys In College" Prof. Michaels' play, scored a decided sue cess last evening before an audience that filled the high school auditorium to overfloWing. Financially the play netted the management more than enough to meet the expenses of con testants on the trip to Tucson. The announcement of Miss Hattie Snod- grass of the senior class as the win ner of the contest and author of the fifth act was a feature of the per formance.
 From start to finish the Coyotes in the play acquitted themselves in a way that won the hearty applause of schoolmates and friends, again prov ing that Phoenix high school students can put on a performance that would be q credit to professionals.
 It was essentially a college fellows play and the boys did themselves p~oud George Luhrs and Jake Tho rlan as the country boys, had lead ing parts. and with Charles Tweed, rlaying the part of the oil magnate' son, won high praise. Harry Slocum as Sport Yeager, George Hamilton as Mute Nicely. and Harold Goldberg as "Fat." scored heavily. The other fellows from "PreXy' Abbott to Joe Barnett, the diminutiVe "swpe,' fur- nished just the support needed 10 make the performance a success.
 The girls in the cast had a rather small part to play, but they played It well. Helen O'Malley as Alice Ar mold made charming heroine, E't- genia Glasscock as Julia W1lmotn ana Nancy Lee Heard as the talkat'e e Jean wnie splendii. and were ably suprortcd by the Ctfe CT college girls.
 Interest in the play reached us height at the end of the fourth act al which time the name Of the author of the fifth act was to be announced. When Prof. Michael, the author or the first four acts appeared on the plat form. he was given a real ovation, and was made the recipient of several beau tiful bouquets. In his easy manner he thanked the audience and then opened the envelope and announced the name Of the co-author of the play, Miss Hat tie Snodgrass of the class of 1914.
 In the fifth act, which followed. the situations of the play unravel them selves quickly and to everybody's satis- faction. At a college dance Hanks sue cess as a money maker and a hero is announced, Jack wins the girl he loves. and the play winds up with a good old Virginia reel.
 College songs and airs figured large ly throughout the play. making it de- lightful from musical standpoint The Boula song in Act II was a delightful feature. Much praise is also due the high school orchestra which furnished the music during the performance.
 Too much credit cannot be given to Prof Michael, who wrote the first four acts of the play and under whose di- rection the cast was drilled and the performance staged. As play Country Boys in College" ranks high-it is true to life-and, unlike many so-called col lege plays, is not overdrawn. Founded on fact. it is a clean drama of real col lege life.

HIGGINS WILL
 BE A SPEAKER
County Superintendent of Schools to Be Heard This Morning at Tucson. Fla vors Teaching of Music and Art

County Superintendent of Schools left Phoenix last night for Tucson, where he will attend the University Week events. MT. Higgins is scheduled to deliver an address this morning on Rural School Curriculum"
 Agriculture, the predominating sub ject in school circles, will form the basis of MT Higgins remarks. Mr. Higgins will speak of the necessity of arranging study in farming for the youngsters in the rural schools.
 'I believe the time is ripe for chang ing the curriculum along the line of subject matter taught" said MT. Rig gins yesterday, before leaving fo- Tue son. In this change, it is important that instruction in agriculture should be looked after
 This study can be worked into other courses as practical matter In arithmetic, for instance, I believe that the boys should be taught something else than the mere figures in the book They should be taught how to measure hay, and other problems that will con- front them if they become farmers
 T am also going to advocate more attention on the part of rural school teachers to music and drawing These studies have been neglected in the past Most of the teachers have believed that it was not necessary to teach them. and many have said that they do not have the time to give instruction in these arts. A few schools in Maricopa county have given the children a start on music and drawing. The youngsters took to it so readily that I cannot hel0 but think that all the children in the county should be given benefit of such instruction"
 Inasmuch as most of the county su- perintendents of schools of the state will be al Tucson this week, it is prob able that the annual meeting of the superintendents, which was called by State Superintendent of Public instruc- ton Case for Phoenix for the latter part of the week, will be held in Tue son. This arrangement will save the superintendents the extra trip back to Phoenix.

DAUGHTER WHO MADE MORE
 MONEY THAN HER FATHER

In the current issue of Farm and Preside, w. Milton Kelly, writing an article entitled MT. Farmer in Ac- count with Mrs. Farmer" recites many interesting facts about wom- en in farmers families, who have made good financially Following is q story he tells of farmers daugh- ter:
 "A few years ago, while visiting my old home, I met a young woman who was making success of the poultry business She was an un- usually intelligent woman, but her father was constantly harping about the amount of feed he was furnish ing and about the premises being overrun with the pesky hens. I made the suggestion that the daughter pay him a moderate amount for the use of the houses and yards and for the feed required to maintain the fowls. In this way they could keep a rec ord of each branch of the business and be independent of the other The first year the daughter made a prof. it of more than $500 after paying ev- cry expense and building five new colony houses. The fathers profits from the farm were less than s200. The daughters investment amounted to less than $500, while the fathers investment amounted to more than $500 after paying every expense and building five new colony houses. The fathers profits from the farm were less than S20G. The daughters in Vesiment amounted to less than $500, while the fathers investment amounted to more than s6000. The second years results showed a profit o1 more than $450 for the daughter and less than $10O for the father. Last years cost sheets made by the writer showed that the daughter cleared about $400, while the father lost about $200 from his end of the business. In making up these cost sheets. I charged the poultry end of the business with fair proportion of the taxes, interest on the invest ment, depreciation, horse mainten- ance. and credited them with reas- enable sum for family uses. In this instance, the daughter kept house for the father consequently she should not be charged for her board, neither do I give her any credit for her work in the house and garden"

The Cass orchestra played at the
reception given by the Northwestern
Woman's club at tie Wingert school
for the teachers OF the new schools In
that section. Many kind words OF ap-
proval were expressed by the mem
bers OF the club and their guests, and
the boys enjoyed the evening greatly.

last Thursday TO the students proved
to be even more-than expected. This
Is the second annual affair, and the

turkey having given ont last Thurs
day sooner than expected, and some
or the students were compelled to 60

The Senior society gave a Christ
mas dance last Friday. and without a
doubt 1t was the finest social affair
this term. About half OF the faculty
members were present and nearly 300
students appeared. Seventy-hve cou-
pies lined up for the grand march,
and much credit Is due TO Earl Roth
erick and Gladys Radley, who led the
procession"
Something new and original came
up when Earl Rotherick. president of
the Senior society, announced that
some prize winning games were TO be
enjoyed. Ten ambitious young ladies
lined up for the potato race. and at
the signal they skipped across the
dance floor. II was no difficulty To
start, but as they reached the waxed
part OF the floor the girls had to put
forth every effort TO balance them
selves. Quite fortunately none OF the
heroines fell, but they certainly sue
ceeded in causing much amusement
by their repeated efforts to pick up a
large potato with a teaspoon.
The boys then had a chance at the
potato game, after which the thread
and needle game followed. Six prizes
were awarded, a sewing box, two
boxes of candy, two toy horses and a
sleeping doll. One OF the young
ladies received two-pound box OF
"MacDiarmid's."
Luncheon was served in the school
dining room after the tenth dance
