.Histrionic Success at High

to be Repeated.

The one-act plays 1.-THE Neighbors..
The Piper's Pay" and French
Without q Master" which were pre-
scented at the high school last night.
WILL be, given again this evening by
membe-s OF the schools expression
department under the direction Of
Leona Smith.
The first performance Of the three
plays was an unqualified success. and
several of the youthful actors ac-
quilted themselves In a rather UNI
usually creditable manner. Ingenuity
as we'll as a finely developed sense of
humor characterized both the plays
and the playing, The scenery for each
OF the plays, especially designed for
the occasion, was effective, and the
music rendered by the high school
orchestra under the direction of E.
A. Moses, contributed much to the
success Of the evening.
In 1.-THE Neighbours" Eleanor Kelly,
Elizabeth Bristol, Lucille Williams,
Vernice Aldrich, Mary Moore, Oswald
Hagen and John Henry found an OPP
portunity to demonstrate their ability
on h amateur stage.
Katherine Londergan, Helen Leh-
man, Margaret Randall, Ruth Nc
Nicol. Mary Kelly. Mary Parsons and
Sadie Fisher took part in the staging
Of 1.-THE Piper's Pay" a farce which
proved to be an excellent vehicle for
this particular company of actresses.
In true accord with dramatic ira
dition, the climax was deferred until
the very last when it appeared in the
form Of the play, French Without a
Master" in which Eva Vandenynde,
Delmar Warren, Mildred Read, Roy
P~apermaster, Richard Black and
Charles Randall took part with much
success.
Norman Falkanger had arranged the
scenery in such a way as to make it
almost literally correspond to the
spirit and the atmosphere of the
PLAYS.

Facts Of Dentistry.

The first American dentist to prac.
tice that profession exclusively was
probably Doctor Jones, who opened
the pioneer dental Office In New York
131 years ago, according to a notice
appearing in the newspapers of that
period.
1t Is only within the last half century
that dental surgery has become a real
science. Before that time physicians
were called on to pull aching molars
and at an earlier period BARRIERS were
usually dentists. The elaborate dental
work of today is a development of the
last quarter Of a century.
Odontology, the science Of the teeth,
may be said to have commenced with
the researches of Prof. Richard Owen,
who in 1889 made the first definite an
Eouncement Of the organic connection
between the vascular and the hard sub.
stance Of the tooth.
