Il was Miss Frevert's custom to de.
vote the last few minutes Of the lasson
period to an informal discussion of
anything that the girls themselves
might suggest. One Sunday Elizabeth
French had perfectly new idea.
Let's have composite photograph,
girls" she said, according to the
Youths Companion. when I visited
my cousin I went with her and few
other girls, and we had one taken. It's
very interesting"
The girls agreed at once, and next
week they sat for their pictures. When
the composite photograph was made,
Miss Frevert took it to the class with
her. The girls exclaimed with delight
and surprise when she showed It to
them. Then, as they studied It, a
curious silence fell upon them.
Why" said Elizabeth, slowly, "it's
more beautiful, more spiritual, than
any of us!"

Miss Frevert placed a reassuring
hand over Betty's. "You were not"
she said. II am glad you have discov-
cred for yourselves the fact that this
composite picture is more ideal than
any single face that has gone into the
making of 1t. To me there Is some
thing very significant In that. You
know that 1t is through agreements
alone that you can make 9 composite

agree with other features leaves so
slight an impression on the plate that

that is common to many faces will be
clear and positive. Do you see what

be this weeks offering by the Poll
Players. That this story of English
country life has achieved as great "a
success and generated as much dis
cussion as it has is attributed to the
simplicity and sincerity of the drama
and the general appeal of its theme.

the play might be described as a pas
toral love story Beyond the surface
drama. however. there is an almost
sensational discussion of the obligation
of parents to instruct their daughters
in the fundamental facts of life. The
central figure is young girl. who Eas
been brought up in the sheltered Sc
clusion of an English clergyman's
country home, and who is utterly igno-
rant of the worlds vices and the
tragedies of daily life. She is saved
from the perils of the blindness of
virtue by a fortunate turn of events.
The play is written in epigrammatic
style. and maintains its interest and
suspense throughout four acts The

duction will be played by Miss Jewel,
