Clarence


The play Clarence was, without
doubt, the best play ever put ON in CIR
Gle. Good sized crowds were out ON
both Friday and Saturday nights.
MIR. James, as Clarence, played very
difficult role. Various emotions were
displayed by the audience as the play
deyeloped-as the real Clarence was
brought out. All players are to be
COMMUNICATED ON their splendid inter-
pretation.
Since the play is too good and re-
quires too much work to be put on Tor
the mere benefit of Circle, it will be
presented at Richey Friday evening
May 4th, under the auspices OF the
American egion, and at Vida on Sat
urday May 18th.
Following is copy of the house
program used with the play:

DENIES RED CROSS
is ONLY WAR BODY
Mabel Boardman Points Out Work
in Peace Time and Asks
Cooperation.

An urgent request for every wom-
ans club and society in Washington
to appoint a Red Cross committee as
part of its permanent organization
was made by MISS Mabel T. Board
man, secretary of the American Red
Cross, in an address before the
Twentieth Century Club. which held
It's first spring meeting in the Cos
mos Club yesterday.
Aside>from the need OF an efficient
Red Cross as part of the United
States essential service of national
defense, that great humanitarian or
eanization had proved It's need in
more than one disaster in various
parts of the country in the last few
years, Miss Boardman said. She
caustically defended the Red Cross
against pacifist insinuations that 1t
was part Of wartime machine.
Needed In Peace Time.
I'VE do not have police depart
ment because we hope to have mur-
ders and thefts. nor fire department
because we like to see buildings
burning down. the speaker said.
"Nor do We prepare for war because e
we want war. But that we should
keep in a state of preparedness is
undeniable War is not the only
means Of the Red Cross serving
Amc rica.
During the great influenza cpl
demic. which slew far more persons
than the great war, the Red Cross
proved itself of inestimable value.
Here in Washington. when the knick-
erbocker Theater collapsed, its need
was ably demonstrated. We want
you women to come with us. to serve
in one Of our many departments.
There is room in every branch, from
the clerical to the surgical. And you
will find the work more than fascinat-
ing once you get into it,"
Tell of Juvenile Work.

tective Association was described by
four speakers. Mrs. L. p. Bicknell,

Mrs. Richard r. f. jackson, Mrs
James McNeill and Mrs. Edward B.
Clark. Several of the speakers took
occasion to deny charges that chill
dren had been taken from parents
without just cause. immortality and
neglect are the only grounds upon
which the association is authorized
TO appoint guardians for minors with
living parents. But 1t is not always
possible to explain these reasons in
newspapers. they said.
Three interesting dramatic sketches
were staged by members of the club.
The first was entitled The Barrel"
in which Mrs. Frederick harrington
and Mrs. George Putnam appeared.
In the second, entitled Dust of the
Road" the players were Mrs. Benja-
min E. Smith, Mrs. L. Il. Swarm

Philip s. Smith. The third, a Japan
ese comedy, was played by Mrs.
