Dramatic Club Program
Brings Large Audience

; Practically every seat in the Nor
NAL school auditorium was occupied
On Monday evening when the curtain
rose on the annual production of the
Dramatic club. The program this
year was divided in two parts. Part
one was a presentation of "Perse-
phone" a Greek Thanksgiving story,
dramatized by the members of the
club. The presentation showed some
gorgeous lighting and color effects.
Miss Agnes Moe played the part of
Persephone; Miss Leta Lowe, that OF
Demeter; and Waldamar Anderson
chat OF Pluto. The Misses Catherine
Barlow, Nuella Ness, and Gladys o.
son were tie priestesses, while one OF
the classes in physical education took
the part Of the nymphs-Woods, Sun
shine, Flowers. Fruit, and the Sea.
Though short, the playlet was CIV.
en- with good effect, and represe.. ID
very well the work the members Of
the Dramatic club are doing not on
year, but each week.
The Other Wise Man" was drama,
tiled from Henry Van Dykes we'll
known story by Miss Martha E. Dew
ey. director of the work in dramatics
at the Normal school, and to whom
much of the credit for the success of
Monday evenings program belongs.
The story is too familiar to need re-
petition, out it was dramatized for ex-
cellent effect. sd
The part of "Artaban," the other
wise man, was taken by H. G.. Arms
corf. while J. E. Switzer played the
roe of Abdus; w. NJ. Wemett, Rhodas-
pes: G. l.: Kjefstad, Tigranes: and ].
H. Seymour. Abgarus, all Magi. Mr.
Kjerstad also appeared as The Hebrew
, exile, and Messrs. Seymour, Wemett:
ant Switzer, as the three wise men
Miss Marion Messer played the part
of the young mother, and Miss Dor
! othy Jadg, of the slave girl. Men,
bers Of the E. B. C. society were the
Roman soldiers. L. H. Purdy was
Joseph, while Miss Cora Mittun rep
resented Mary in the pantomine pc
ture in the fourth act. "a
The large audience seemed to ap-
ureciate the program of the evening.
