Laugh That OF"
At Island High School

1t won't be long now. In fact just
one week from Friday. Speaking, as
you may have guessed, of the play,
Laugh That Off" to be presented by
the P. Gs. under the direction of Mrs.
Keyes on Friday night, April %, at
800 p. m. In the high school audi
torium.
The story abounds IN human inter-
est and pathos, but is well punctuated
with humor and wit to relieve the
more serious tones. 1t is an unusually
clever plot, woven about the expert
ences of three pals and girl whom
they adopt as a sister and with whom
they all fall in love. The war breaks
up the happy group and apparently
betrays treachery on the part of the
girl.
Come and sympathize with Leo, as
his pals go off to war; smile with
"Remorse" as he returns from France,
laugh and rejoice with all of them at
their happy Christmas reunion.
Yes-come! You can't afford to miss
such an evening of entertainment,
especially at such low admission prices
only 25c general admission Ono re-
served seats) and 15c for grade school
children. Get your seat on time. First
come, first served.
