always receives heaps of applause
Doris Stewart as Mrs. Linden, the
villainess; Grace Peake, as Gracious
Ann Bean, a colored girl; Lillian
Roster, as Eleanor wellington; Ruth
Langdon, Jane Wellington, and
Margaret Zeiders. Minette Yelling
ton, all excellently portray the char
acters they represent. Miss Marian
Martz is stage director.
This High School Club, having as
president, Miss Grace PealSe; Miss
Ruth Langdon, secretary, and Miss
Elizabeth Holahan, treasurer, is do
ing q fine work in all it's branches

ROSE SHOW TO
BE BIG EVENT
OF EARLY JUNE
'Woman's Advisory Board of
Y. M. C.. A. to Direct
Exhibition

Plans are rapidly maturing for
the Second Annual Rose Show,
which will be held in this city
sometime in June. 1t will be under
the able management of the Wom-
ans Advisory Board of the Central
Y. NJ. c. A, the same organization
that made the Rose Show such a
great success last year, and from all
accounts they expect to more than
repeat their success. The various
committees that will have charge of
the work will be appointed later by
the president, Mrs Paul a. Kunkel.
Letters of invitation and entry
cards will be sent in due season to
all rose-lovers, and lists of the
classes of roses in competition will
appear in the newspapers. The
date for holding the show will not
be announced until one week before
the event. Very frequently weather
conditions are such that few days
more or less may utterly spoil
rose bloom for competition, so 1t
has been deemed advisable to leave
the date open in order that the show
may be held in the height of the
rose season.
Harrisburg made splendid
showing at it's First Annual Rose
Show, despite the fact that wealth.
er conditions We're such that the
great mass of rose bloom was past
before the week of the show, and,
from the interest exhibited at that
Kline by both exhibitors and visitors,
his years show will go far toward
pDlacing the city on the map as haV-
ing real rose show. There are
enough rose-lovers and flower
lovers in this city and in nearby
towns to ensure one of the most
successful rose shows in the safe.
All that is needed is cooperation.
AS before, it is to be a rose show
for amateurs only, which gives the
man or woman with a few rose
bushes an equal chance with the
owner of Il large rose garden.
