ROLES IN COMEDY

Several charming young women
are lending their time and talents
to the production of "One of the
Family to be given March 10 and

under auspices of the Women's

Mrs. Lyman Robertson Mercedes
J Frost) is to be one of the members
of the famous Adams family, the
/ family that furnishes the obstacle
/ to the course of true love. She will
play a sister r-in-law, very smart,
very charming, a bit unscrupulous,
with thoroughly modern ideas, not
/ in keeping with the tenets Of the
Back Bay Boston hierarchy. The
] way in which she manages her
I husband will elicit many. a smile.
Then there is a flapper Adams,
whose ways scandalize the con-
ventional head of the family, Aunt
Priscilla Adams. Her namesake,
little Priscilla, played by Mary
Kate Stewart, is anything but
prissy, and she, too, will get her
share of laughs.
A very naughty Adams sister
will be interpreted by Mrs. Norman
Deaton, whose ability to handle
role has been proved on many
previous occasions.
The only truly comic character,
however, will be Maggie, the
Dunkard cook. a person of uncer-
tain years and decided ideas,
mainly of disapproval She will be
portrayed by Barbara Hammond,
who has played character parts
with community play organizations
in Berkeley, Los Angeles and
Riverside.
Miss Gretta Gould director of
the play, is sparing no pains for
its success and a smooth-rmning
performance of quasi-professional
character is assured.

and Mildred Langley, acconpanist
In view OF the fact that the pro-
gram was Moods of the Desert
the club dedicated the evening tC
the pioneers of the Imperial Valley
desert, approximately 40 OF whom
were present for the occasion.
John Claire Monteith, baritone
whose rich, beautiful voice was
heard TO advantage last night. op-
ened the program with a group OF
songs of the West, featuring those
based on original Indian melodies
The effect was heightened by the
striking Indian costume Worn by
the singer. A particularly lovely
song was Cadman's Call Me No
More.
Edward Langley, artist and lee
turer, has painted a number OF
beautiful scenes of the California,
Arizona and Nevada deserts. These
were shown. one by one. IN large

dawn which shaded softly into the
brighter morning light. The bril-
lance of the noon day sun follow
ed, gradually shifting to the rosy
glow of sunset, evening lights fin
ally casting the picture into dark
ness.
Lights Effective
Mr.. Langley worked a number Of
years to perfect this lighting de-
vice which gives a realistic light
effect to the paintings and which
clearly depicts the ever-changing
lights and colors of the desert.
Some of the pictures shown were
of San Jaeinto and Tahquitz can
yon, of the yellow sage, of Tin
mountain, the Valley of Fire, of the
Al Saguaro cactus in the waste
spaces, of Seven Palms, of the
Grand Canyon, of the Virgin Riv-
er and Marango valley.

ating account of his desert expert
ences. in which a number of charm
ing Indian legends were recounted.
The third division of the. pro-
gram consisted of group Of songs
in desert mood by Mr.. Montieth.
Songs based on the well known

Monteith's rare gift Of interpreta-
ton and his own feeling for the
beauty of the desert, coupled with
his splendid voice, added to the
charm of his presentation of songs

AIODERN housewives are al

something different for salads
and salad combinations. Salad
dressings, too, are important fac
tors in salad making and receive
their share of attention.
An unusual dressing is made
with tomato pulp. Il IS very cheap
and very good and will keep for
weeks if stored in jar in the ice
box. While it is good with all
