PLAY TO BE GIVEN APRIL IL

1t was decided at the last practice
that the play "The Cricket on the
Hearth" will be given on the twelfth
Of next month in the gymnasium,
providing the scenery arrives in time.
If the shipment is delayed the Town
Hall will be used. Rehearsals will be
held practically every evening next
week and the week following.
"The Cricket on the Hearth" is a
drama in three acts as dramatized by
Albert Smith from Charles Dickens
story Of the same name. It was first
performed at the Lyceum Theatre in
London and was a great Success. This
play is quite different from the usual
kind of performance the high school
has been putting out the last few
years. It is a piece of true classical
art and cannot but appeal to the pub
lie because of it's humor, pathos and
the other characteristics for which
Dickens is SO well wnokn. Costumes
will be sent from Chicago SO as to
make it more realistic and also in
keeping with the fashion Of the day
in which the story took place.
