cord and criticize carefully, the eventful evening of Oct. i 22. The curtains opened at precisely 7:30 much to the amazement and even consternation of a few. Upon first glance it appeared that. the scenery was new, but closer inspection showed that it had only received a coat of paint, donated by the Thornburg Drug Company. The plot smarted slowly but soon developed into the fast moving comedy it was meant to be. Audience interest was held from the t appearance of Larry’s ward, Charlie, to the breaking of the priceless antique vase and the parting exclamation of Uncle Aleck as the curtains closed. The music between acts was furnished by Arthur Rubenstein on records. Mr. Sutula took the

pictures during and after the play. Mrs. Vance was responsible for the make-up and Mr. Immel had the tremendous job of being responsible for everything and everyone connected with the production. .Assembly Program Oct. 127, Mr. Rudolph R. Zandall. educational officer of the Bureau of Education and representative from the State Fire Marshal Dept., gave a demonstration on fire prevention plus a few unexpected magic tricks while explaining why 6*0% of the fires are preventable. He pulled a toy skunk from an empty box, and pulled several scarves from an empty cylinder. The general reaction seemed to be appreciation for this new method of leaniing. — Jane Bachman.
