MANY SEE,
THE ROYAL.
F A Mi !"

Life of theater people as depicted
by playwrights Edna Ferber and
George Kaufman was viewed by an
almost capacity house last Friday
night when the Dayton chapter Of
the Alpha Kappa Alpha sorority
presented '1The Royal Family on
the Palace theater stage.
The organizations in Dayton which
do not mind taking a few risks to
make it possible for this community
to have from time to time attrac-
tions of definite cultural nature
should be encouraged by the public
support given the sorority which
worked very hard and inteliigently
to produce good play and to get
a large audience for the presen-
tation.
Despite the exceedingly large ex-
pense necessary to offer 1.-The Royal
Family the AKA's are able to re-
port a profit for their scholarship
fund to aid deserving local students
with higher education aims.
The eight months which Miss Fer
Der and Kaufman spent in writing
| ''The Royal Family were not vast
ed for it is play which entertain
ingly and absorbingly toys with the
madness of show folk and the ever
lasting glamour Of the footlights.
Before 1.-THE Royal Family" was
produced on Broadway few years
ago many well known actresses
turned down the role Of Julie who
tries always to carry on the tradi-
tion that the theater is the only
place for Cavendish. Locally,
Shirley Jones portrayed valiantly
the role Of Julie. She had much of
the velvety glamorous quality re-
quired by the part.
/ By now you probably have heard
| of Mrs. Viola Lewis Walters fascin-
| ating portrayal Of Fanny Cavendish,
j jules feeble mother who would
| like SO much to go transforming on
one-night stands throuhout the
| Middle West. For top honors in
acting Mrs. Walters gets the prize.
Louise Clark as Gwen of the third
! generation of the Cavendishes who
does break away from the theater
tradition to marry and have a baby
was very convincing and satisfactory
in her role.
Clarence Smith, cast as member
of the younger Cavendishes, handled
his assignment capably.
Though their roles were not quite
| as important as the above j. Gilbert
Walters, Ralph d. Taylor, James
Justice, and Joseph Woodford turn
ed in very worthwhile jobs of acting.
Elizabeth Ryans with only a
minor bit almost stole scene when
| Miss Clark and Mr.. Justice were
trying to squeeze trouble out of
their love affair.
F. Arlington Young, Paul Prear,
Arselius West, Viola Rife and
George Ellis, Jr., are to be compli-
mented for the manner in which
| they acted.
Responsible to great extent for
the fine performance Of "The Royal
| Family is Dr. Arnold d. Shaw who
/ directed the play When presented
to the audience Friday night he de-
/ servedly received an appreciative
| demonstration Of admiration for his
latest dramatic success.
inadvertently, the program Friday
night did not have the name of Miss
Ethel Stewart who is an active and
capable member of the sorority.

Whatever way is used Dr.
Brownell says, Educators and
health authorities agree that an

competent physician and dentist

QUESTION: What is the extent
of Federal aid for vocational edu-
cation in high schools, trade
schools and the like? Is this grow
ing or diminishing?
REPLY: For the fiscal year end
ed June goth 1893 the Federal gov
ernment allotted grants of S21, ,775,-
a77.00 for vocational education be-
low college grade. Of this some
$7,126, 100000 was in the field of
agriculture, s11, ,237 100000 for train
ing in trade industry and home
economics, s1,254,OOO.OO for train
ing in the distributive occupations,
and $2,422,0OO.OO for training for
training of teachers in vocational
subjects.
Because the George-Deen Act OF
1886 went into effect for the first
time in the fiscal year ended June
30th 1898, these figures represent
great increase over previous
years In 1897 the total of Federal
money allotted to states and terri
tories for vocational education was
ss,S62,S52.OO; in 1886 it was $S,-
721.47400.
These funds are granted to states
and must be matched by State or
local money.
