Mrs. Temples Telegram"
Well Presented By Students

The Juniors and Seniors of Heppner
high school presented in very cred
table manner, indeed, the comedy play,
Mrs. Tmple's Telegram" at the Star
theater on last Thursday evening.
Owing to the fact that there were a
number of other gatherings in the city

have been but this did not dampen the
enthusiasm of the players nor detract
in the least from the splendid rendi-
tion Of every part by the members of
the cast.
Violet Merritt, as Mrs Temple, had
the leading role and was well able to
sustain it, while Ted Young, who as
Frank Fuller in the cast also imperson-
ated for a time John Brown, kept up
a lively string Of chatter that kept the
audience in laughter as we'll as being
the means of saving himself and his
friend. Mr.. Temple, from more serious
difficulty. The other members Of the
cast were: Ellis Irwin, Jack Temple
Ailene Sprouts, Mrs, Fuller; Oren Hill,
Wigson, the butler; Annie Hynd, Mrs,
John Brown; Pearl Hall, Mrs Tmple's
sister; Paul McDuffee, Captain Sharpe;
Edward ChidseY John Brown. These
each sustained their parts well and
added their part to making Mrs. Tenn
pies Telegram" a complete success.
Between acts, THE Love Nest" from
the musical comedy, MARY" was sung
by Nelma Case, Mary Clark, Violet
Hynd, Cora Mae Crawford, Bernice
Sigsbee and Leola Bennett and the
Misses Case, Clark and Bennett present.
