EARLHAM STUDENTS SHOW GREAT MERIT IN ANNUAL DRAMA Marianna Dickinson and Janney Hutton as Leading Characters Carry Parts With Unusual Skill.

Displaying almost professional skill In interpretation of the difficult characters in "The House Next Door," members of the cast choBen from the Phoenix and Ionian Literary societies of Earlham, gave Saturday evening, one of the most successful performances that has ever been witnessed on the Earlham stage. All of the parts in the play were well taken. 1 he acting of Marianna Dickinson, a spohomore, taking the part of Esther, the young Jewess, was far superior, to the acting usually seen In amateur plays. Hutton Acts Well. Janney Hutton, a Bophotnore, who took the leading masculine role, was well adapted to the character of Cecil, hon of a hot-headed Englishman. Edna Reynard as Ulrica, daughter of the unfortunate English gentleman and sister to Cecil, was also clever in her acting. Khe was well supported by Wessie Payne, as her lover, a son of the rich Jew and brother to Esther. Alfred Hall, In the difficult role of Sir John Cotswold. showed remarkable ability, as did Harold Taylor with the character of the wealthy .Tew, Sir Isaac Jacobson. Despite the somewhat exeggerated characterization of Iewis, the musical agent, Harold Kirk showed up well for hia first appearance in college theatrics. The characters of Rebecca and Lady Cotswold were taken respectively by Marguerite Norton anxl Euphrasia Kirk. Herbert Chappell was seen in the minor role of Vinlng, the servant: Sumner Mills as Captain Trevor, and Cecil Collins as Maxmillian. Action Hinges on Loss. The action of ihe play hingeH about the complications arising between the two pairs of lovers, as the result of the jinimoslty of their parents. By an unfortunate turn of affairs, Sir John had lost his fortune and estate which had been acquired by the wealthy Jew, Isaac Jacobson. His feeling toward the Jew was turned into bate when he found that the Jew had been knighted und had moved next door in the property formerly owned by Sir John himself. The children are forbidden to nee each other and the attempts to overcome these obstacles lead to the complications that arise. Miss Bassett, a member of the faculty at Earlham, coached the cast in the rehearsals and had much to do with the success of the performance.

AGENTS SECRETLY INSURE ENGINEERS

New Union Provides Income When Railroaders Lose Jobs Temporarily. It "was learned today that unions protecting men against stoppage of their Income If they are temporarily dismissed, have been secretly organizing on the Pennsylvania railroad here. Ab the railroad does not recognize unions, the work has been carried on quietly. It has been going on for two monthB. The organisers are using their moBt Impressive argument, the fact that many firemen have been laid off, engineers reduced to firemen and old employes cut off in the railroad retrenchment which has been going on for four or five months. One organizer enrolled forty men. Only men who are working now are given protection against what may happen In the future. The railroaders are sworn to secrecy In order not to jeopardize their jobs and also in order not to hamper the work of the unions. The new protection Is called Insurance as It does not carry with it the same recognition and privileges a union does. A small monthly or weekly payment is made by the railroad employe to the agent in advance. The amount of dues and possible benefits Is unknown. It Is Baid that all classes of work are represented In the new organizations, the rules not specifying the employment of members. Although one organizer has been working here at times in the guise of a salesman for several months he has not been successful until recently.

Nelson Says Preble Farmers Must Not Ship From Richmond Yards. Following the lifting of the foot and mouth quarantine from Preble county last week. Dr. Lou Clem has received many inquiries from farmers who are anxious to ship their live stock from the local yards. Dr. Clem called Dr. A. F, Nelson, state veterinarian, by telephone this morning to ascertain the law regarding the local situation. Dr. Nelson Bald that it was not permissible to bring the animals across the state line for loading, but that they must be loaded in Preble county and billed straight through to their destination. The amendment lifting the quarantine provides that animals may be shipped for immediate slaughter to any point where there is a federal inspector, but in the opinion of Dr. Nelson it does not provide for the driving or hauling of animals across the state line for shipment.
