WILLOWDALE'
STAGED BEFORE
CAPACITY HOUSE
Home Talent Show Under
Auspices of Community
League Is Success

"Willowdale", three act COM
edv drama, directed by Mrs. Oscar
Cummings, and staged under the
auspices of the Girls Community
League proved big attraction at
the Methodist Church Assembly
Room Friday evening. A capacity
audience, with many being forced
to stand, witnessed the perform
ance ,one of the finest exhibitions
of home talent ST. Johnsbury
people have enjoyed in some time.
In addition to being a theatrical
success "Willowdale" succeeded in
drawing no small amount OF
money into the treasury of the
Girls Community League, a
most worthy organization. The
net proceeds from the affair will
be used to promote the welfare Of
st. Johnsbury's young girls who
are members of this asso citation. A
small amount of extra cash result
ed from the sale Of home mace
candies by the Girl Scouts
during the show. Members of the
League acted as ushers and hand
led the large crowd Wei.
"Willowdale" tells the story of
activities in a small rural commun-
ity. The openino scene in the
comedy drama is the village most
office and general store the rem
devious of Simon Pinner, the
towns LATEST man, Lem Hackett,
choir leader and impromptu detec-
tive and others. The other two
acts are staged in the home of Joel
Bassett. Chief gossin in the store
centers about the accusation
against Tom Skerrett, one of the
towns highly respected young
men.
Tom, formerly employed at the
post office, has been accused by
Joseph Godfrey, ambitious and un-
scrupulous lawyer, of orening
registered letter and stealing from
it $40. Godfrey had NOTHING upon
which to base such a charge ex-
cept jealousy. Tom was in 4ove
with Mile Bassett, adopted
daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. Joel
Bassett keepers Of the post office.
Millie is heiress to $4,000, which
Godfrey is anxious to get. He
knows he will get the fortune if
he can secure Miles hand in mar
riage. Mrs. Bassett favors the
match but Joel is against. How
ever, Joel, is pretty much he
under his wife's thumb and doesn't
often get a chance to express him
self.
Tom Skerrett and Mile Bassett
are in love with each other and it
was in an attempt to ruin Toms
chances with Mile that Godfrey
