Waterville, Jan. ls-The play "Snowbound," a three act dramatic presentation, will be given by the Ladies' Aid society of St. Michael's church, at St. M!chae.'s hall Thurs day and Friday evenings at 8:16.
 This play, from the pen of Tom Taggert, will so far exceed the av- craze presentation, that all of Wa terville is on pins and needles await ing the rise of the first curtain.
 This correspondent witnessed the last rehearsal and was amazed, as the local characters handled the complex situations with professional ability. The action of the play takes place in a deserted hunting shack, high in the Adirondacks of upper New oYrk state in December, when 8 transcontinental bus becomes "snowbound" and the passengers seek refuge in the shack. What is found there is a story of exceedingly clever handling. The characters and

SOUTH CHURCH
Heinz schrey, an exchange stud.

Heinz Schrey, an exchange stud ent from Germany, who is at present attending the Yale Divin- ity school, gave defense of Hit Ter and his Nazi rule at South Federated church yesterday. Rev. erend T. LeRoy Crosby WAS in charge of the service.
 The speaker pointed out that Adolf Hitler rode into power on the crest of 8 wave of political and social unrest. Dictators in Europe, he stated, are the result of lack of natural resources, not of politics.
 To-day Germany has new vision and strength" he said. "Her old illustration and feeling of infer iority, brought about by the treaty of Versailles, are gone. Germany again is restored to her place as an equal nation demanding equal rights. If she has been forced to meet the, rearmament program of the rest of Europe, she has done so only because she realizes that a powerful army is the only thing that speaks with authority in Eur ope. But the German people do not want another war. The mem- ories of the last war and what 1t accomplished are still too vivid in their minds. The whole world realizes now that there were no victors in that war, only victims"
