Expressing Willie" was an at
tempt to present different type OF
comedy that is usually selected by high
schools. The humor was OF the
kind that brought a chuckly rather
than a hearty laugh and was built
up around situation in which some
of the ultra modern ideas were slyly
ridiculed. While a farce Is more easl-
ly put across by amateurs the cast
selected from the Class Of 1929 may
feel that they held the attention OF
audience all through Expressing
Willie" and that the story never drag
ged in interest. In many scenes the
players rose to fine bits OF acting.
The way that the Seniors trans
formed themselves into the character
that they were playing was COM
mendable feature and. showed the re-
suit Of careful coaching on the part
of Miss Clinton.
Bernadine Huffman took the part
of an indulgent mother in very ma
tural manner. Her concern Tor ner
boy and her contempt for the frothy
crowd that followed him about were
caught from the expression OF her
face as we'll as her words. Minnie
Whitconlb as taken by Beatrice Lar
son, who played opposite Willie Smith
ALVIN Privette), was an old lover OF
Willie whom Willie dropped when ne
began making money on tooth-paste.
She comes to visit Willie just at the
time when he thinks that it will rum
his weekend party. He had built
himself large home and was now
trying to break his way into the So
ciety Of the rich.
Talliaferro lCarl Bessey), a paint
err of souls, as he calls himself, comes
for the purpose of painting Smith IN
his new home but seeing Minnie he
becomes enthused with her and tries
to find some way in which he can
get at the soul of Miss Whitcomb.
Frances Sylvester Evelyn Lyon,
divorced woman who IS trying to
win Willie Smith was rather beauti-
full and very dignified in her manners.
She has very difficult time and is
very Jealous Of Minnie Whitcomb.
Dolly and George Cadwalader, CLAIR
ence Karnes and Betty Hargreaves)
are typical couple of the So
ciety class of New York. Dolly thinks
she is very attractive and is trying
to tell the people that George is

trying to make Dolly shut up but in

TOMB OF UNKNOWN SOLDIER
is SHRINE ON MEMORIAL DAY

Since 1922 Memorial Day has had
new symbol and new shrine. For
in that year there was placed in a
tomb in Arlington National cemetery
the body of an American soldier who
had died fighting in France. Since
that time the tomb of the Unknown
Soldier has become monument not
only to this victim of the World War
but to the unknown dead of all our
wars. We cannot decorate their un-
marked graves as we decorate the
graves Of other soldier dead on
May 80, but on Memorial Day we can
honor their memory in spirit, if not
in fact.
In this issue of the Western News
appears an illustrated feature article
by Elmo Scott Watson, appropriate
to the observance of Memorial Day
It tells Of this new symbol and new
shrine. Be sure to read where Sleeps
