Of two of the brilliant performers
were omitted, Nelson McKissoc and
crawford Worstall, comic charac-
ters, as we very well know.
Play practice and motion are syn
onimous in the minds of the en-
tire cast. Several evenings ago, half
the embryo actors disappeared at the
end Of the first act, and the Strand
Theatre was enriched to the tune of
one berry. A little later the rest
came in, accompanied the director

axiom, we mean the early birds were
caught by the late cat)
Every once in while, friend

early forecast, we can use ours for
an engagement ring when we get
married. Which we don't intend to
do. Prayer meeting prevents the
Evans duo from coming to practice

nice? We always admire people who
go to church. You're right, we don't
think much of ourselves.
Well, that's quite enough about
that. The other morning, Prof. Light
told us, ensemble, that there was

but our examination marx was

more, we beat Bro. Kerwin by one.
Go way back and sit down, big boy.

We'd hate to tell you, Prof. Mosier,

change of heart since writing his

grand and glorious country, "where

on the afternoon of their gradua-

caps and gowns. One boy looked in
wonder, and said to his buddy in
an awed tone,
"Popes maybe, huh, Willie?"
"Naw," responded the sophisticat-
