'SPINSTERS'
CONVENTION
IS ENJOYED
Officers and Teachers OF
Methodist Sunday School
Score Success on Stage

a remainder Of the days when
skirts swept the pavements, when
stiff wide sashes and ruffles flour
ished when shirt waists and "chok
or" collars were in their glory and
hats were mere lids to be pinned
on securely with dangerous look
ing pins, was given the large
crowd Of people who attended "The
Spinsters' Convention" last eve
ming. The play was given by the
officers and teachers Of the PR
mary department Of the McCabe
Methodist Episcopal Sunday school
at the Rex theatre.
The action was full of laughs
frcm the arrival Of the first spin
sters with their birds and cats to
the very tragic climax. The in
PRODUCTION of local names into the
lines gave added amusement. a
list Of Bismarck bachelors, togeth-
er with their degree of responsive
ness and eligibility, was read for
the benefit of the spinsters.
The discussions Of the conven-
ton, given over eHtlfelE u lnelI-
ODDS and possibilities Of securing a
husband, were unusually clever.
The various members of the cast
took their parts eXcellently. Miss
Jessie Ramp as president of the
society was especially good in her
part.
The arrival Of Professor Make
over with his magic machine gives
the spinsters opportunity to re-
cover their youth. Some choose
to be readers, musicians, fairies
and brides. Four spinsters are
changed into two men. Tragedy
enters into the plot when the magi,
machine and one Of the spinsters
are blown to bits, because OF the
fact that the lady refused to adj
nit to more than l6 summers.
