secretary: Miss, Mary Utley, treas
iirer; Mrs J. M. Harmon, auditor;
Mrs. Charles Ely and Mrs. Henry d.
Ross, members -at-large, and Mrs II.
Is. wilkinson to the board of trustees.
In addition to the regular business,
a most entertaining program was
given. Mrs. Frances Redewilps group
OF piano selections were rendered
with her usual delicaey and under
standing bringing well-merited ap-
plause Mrs Fl. Alden Enyeart pleased
All with several well-Selected vocal
numbers which gave a definite idea
of the range and beauty of her voice.
Mrs. Milton Smith accompanied Mrs.
Enyeart on the piano. Mrs. Berhice
Insley, in her ininitable way. gave
three darby. selections which proved
her an artist in this line Of entertain
ment.
Dr. and Mrs. Messenger gave a
travelogue talk on the South Sea ISL

and educational in nature but won

by them while in the islands were

the success of the day was due to
her efforts.
Another feature Of the week was
the completion OF plans for the play
which has been rehearsing in the past
few weeks and which will have its
presentation next Tuesday afternoon
at the regular meeting Of the club.
"Pygmalion and Galatea,' a Grecian
play in two acts, will be the ambitious
offering OF the art and literature de-
partment OF the club on that day.
This will be by far the largest un-
dertaking of this department during
the year and will set a new mark for
other branches of the club to meas
ure up to. The costuning, music and
dancing has been taken care of by
members Of the Arizona School of
Music, with the greatest attention
paid 10 the small details which go to
make or mar a production OF this
character The dramatic elements
have been left to the care of Mrs.
Dwight Earl Easley, while Miss Edna
Revare has supervised the dancing
portion of the play.
Pygmalion, the Athenian artist who
fashioned q statue of such infinite
beauty that he fell in love with it,
and finally, through his great love,
brought it to life, will be played by
Orlay lies, who has already won a.
firm place in musical and dramatic
circles by his oft-demonstrated
ability.
.fhe difficult part OF Galates will
be delicately handled by Miss Betty
PALMER, whose clever readings and
recitations have made her very pop
ular among the members OF the CLUB.
Perle Marston will be Cynisca- the
wife or Pygmalion, and Lucille Ed
wards will take the role of a slave.
Both have appeared often in dramatic
roles in Phoenix and will be. an as
sured success in their new parts.
Dream Vision will be the name
OF the dance given by Miss Dorothy
Neville. while Mrs. Marvin Smith will
interpret "At the Brook" The dances
are CSrecian in character and the cos
tuning will be appropriate to the
occasion.
Members OF the. club who have been
in the habit Of absenting themselves
from the regular meeting should
make every effort to attend the play
and by their presence add to the sue
cess OF the undertaking. Mrs. w. +.
Mammett is chairman Of the depart

given by the civic education depart

Arizona republican., 1922-03-12

The approach of spring weather
makes the thought turn involuntar-
ily to the out of-doors, and picnics
and motor excursions to the desert
will form large part of the enter
tainment of those who have denied
themselves the pleasures OF the dance.
For the women interested in club
affairs there is the usual round, OF
meetings, teas and lectures on peril
nent subjects of the day. The mu-
steal clubs have planned several pro-
grams for the entertainment of those
who lean toward music. and one or
two dramatic offerings will be given
within the next two weeks by de-
partments of the Woman's club.
Echoes from "Springtime" are still
heard on every side, those who took
part in this tuneful musical comedy
having become so identified with
their parts in the minds of their
friends that many are still called by
their stage names.
The Stephanie Gavotte. which
formed one Of the principal scenes
in the play added new laurels 10 the
professional ones already acquired by
Mrs. Myrta Katheryn Young, who
has six years experience on the regu-
lar musical comedy stage TO her
credit Mrs. Avery Corpstein, who
also has had professional experience,
made a decided hit in her syncopated
jury scene. with Mrs. c. w. Botsford
and Mrs. c. c, Craigin ably carrying
out their parts. Miss Winnie Hoops
as Zenohia showed her training in
the naturalness with which she played
the part, which stood out as one of
the best acted bits in the play.
Mrs. Donald Gjlchrist as the pride
full sister and Mrs. Bernice Insley as
the determined spinster are still be-
ing spoken OF in terms of highest
praise, while Mrs Howard Reed gave
such a perfect rendition of her part
that many who did not know her be-
lieved she was not acting at all,
but was naturally the old woman she
pretended to be- Mrs. Charles Kor-
rick and Mrs. Helen Boyle Haworth
as the two beautiful brides carried
the most important parts of the play
with ease and with such winsome
grace and beauty that they will not
soon be forgotten by their admirers.
Ben Henshaw, who played the diff
ficult and "meaty'' part OF the gay
Bobby Brewster. and r. G. SAiltz,
who carried out the part OF the
"Brewsters Pills" uncle. will be re-
membered long for the artistry they
displayed in these parts Harrison
Duff, Jack Griffin and H. L. Ewing
are vet being congratulated on the
splendid work done by them in their
