CLASS PLAYS

The class plays given at the Opera
House last night were quite up to the
high standard that former~c classes
have set and showed natural ability
to a marked degree in some of the
performers and certainly the most
careful training of all. due to the pa
tient and efficient efforts OF the teach
ers who yearly make this a labor of
love, giving much of their leisure time
to work that is not easy to say the
least
Mrs. Brown was ably assisted by
Miss Sims in directing the plays and
drilling the chorus of girls who gave
a number of their stirring school
songs between acts.
The first play "The Fatal Message,
was given by Misses Pauline Golden
burg, f. Alberson. Mildred Shafer,
and Lillian Leath, and Messrs Louis
Stovall, Edward Russell, Orvillc Hus-
sey and Charles Mann in splendid
style
The second play. Sally Lunn. "
was given by Misses Theda Tisdel.
Hazel Mayo. Dorothy Cass and Mar
garet Spiller four charming girls
whose beauty and grace have never
been seen to better advantage. while
the boys in the cast were Toomer
Lilies, Herbert Gaskin and Dugas Fra
ger, each true to his part, altogether a
most satisfactory presentation
The house was a very good one,
and the proceeds will be used for the
athletic Club and the Fitz-Hi auunal
deficits.

BAKERS FIND FAULT
WITH WHEAT PRICES
| Would Establish a Maximum
Price to Prevent Hoard
ing of Grain.

Chicago. Sept 1s...S. F. Mcdonald.
president OF the National Association
of Master Bakers, in addressing the
convention Of the organization today.
said:
AS an artificial stimulant to wheat
production, congress proposes to guar
antee minimum price Of 81 for the
1918 wheat crop. At the same time
congress delegates TO the farmer the
right to hoard farm products. These
are conditions tending to build up ex-
cessfve bread costs. The farmer.
guaranteed a 50 minimum. may quick
ly realize that a small crop is easier
to handle than large one. A high
minimum without a maximum price
tends to defeat the thing which the
majority OF the people are anxious to
see; namely. a reduction in the high
price OF wheat
With a reasonable maximum price
the farmer would know that he could
not raise a short crop and hoard for
an abnormal price. but would know
that II ne wanted a lot Of money he
would have TO raise a lot of wheat 10
get it."
