THE LANAI PLAYERS THURSDAY



NIGHT
Miss Lillian Osgood Of the Kameha'
meha School is one of the new clever
actresses in the next series of plays
to be given by the Lanai players. She
has had a great deal of experience In
amateur work. Her acting shows earn
est ambition and much ability. She
is Mt. Holyoke girl, and has had all
the training that the eastern school
and colleges give their students in this
sort of work. Miss Osgood will appear
in two Of the playlets of the next bill.
She has an important part in Joint
Owners in Spain, as well as prom
inent part in "Rosalind," the second
playlet on the bill of the evenings of
the 9Th, 10th, and 18th of November.
Joint Owners in Spain" is very
interesting play. Mrs. Burnham takes
special pleasure in producing this be-
cause she knows personally the talent
ed authoress, Miss Alice Brown. Mrs.
Burnham played the same role in Bos-
ton that she is presenting here with
the Lanai players, and Miss Brown
was in the audience, and most
pleased and delighted spectator to see
her characters so we'll, brought out.
Miss Brown is New England writer
who has devoted most of her writings
to the quaint characters known solely
to New England. 1t was she who re-
ceived the $4,000 prize offered by
Winthrop Ames, of the Little Theater
in New York for the best play OF
New England life. Joint Owners in
Spain is a New England play and is
full OF the humor and pathos character
istic of these people.
THE GARDEN PARTY AT Mr.. AND
MRS. L. TENNEY PECK'S
On Saturday, November IL, from 2
o'clock in the afternoon until 5, Mr..
and Mrs. L. Tenney Peck are giving
a garden party and swim for 800 New
York State enlisted men at their beach
home. Mr.. and Mrs. Peck are from
New York and are members of the
New York State Club just formed and
wish to do their bit toward making
the fighting lads happier.
Mrs. Peck when extending the invi-
tations told the boys to bring musical
instruments and help to make the
party a success unsteady. Autos will
meet the cars at the Waikiki terminus
and will take the guests to the Peck
home, where the boys will have the
privilege of doing pretty much as they
please until p. M, when a start
llomeward will be made.
In the evening the Lanai players
are putting on "The Wonder Hat" for
the pleasure of the enlisted men. Only |
600 tickets are available for this, as
that is all the theater will hold, and
it is hoped that the boys who want
tickets will speak for them early as
it will be a case Of first come, first
A very small admis-
sion will be charged and this will be
given to the Red Cross.
This is a delightful way of entertain
ing the boys and a way that they ap-
preciate, for no one is keener than is
an American soldier or sailor. The
line points of a play always appeals
70 them and they make very appreci-
alive audience.
