The story deals with a young newspaper editor, who needs a really sensational story to create interest In his paper. The owner of the paper has threatened to fire him unless the circulation ot the “Gazette” increases. While he is at Mrs. Craig's boarding house, he learns from an eccentric but rich old professor, that the professor’s nephew is bringing a cannibal queen to America. The situation grows more complicated as the young editor learns that the story was “made up" by the professor’s nephew in order to get some of his uncle money. The editor g>ersuades his fiancee, an aspring actress, to “play” the cannibal queen so his newspaper article win be true. Everything goes along fine, until the real cannibal queen shows up.

Mr. Clyde, the editor, keeps his job, and his fiancee is awarded the leading role in a local play. —D.H.S.— The juniors did very well in producing “The Cannibal Queen.” Everyone who attended the play enjoyed it very much.
