Mentor Class $Iap It has been the custom for the Senior class to give their play during the last week of school, but this year the Seniors decided to give it earlier so there would not be so much to do in the last week of school. Mr. Wimberly sent off before Christmas for some samples and decided upon the play “College Chums.” We began practicing a few times before Christmas vacation, but did not put much hard work in on it until about the first of February, when some of the patrons of the town objected to the time spent. Then we set the date for February 17. That week started in bad. We went to the opera house through the rain to practice nearly every evening. Friday night was a bad night under foot, but it had stopped raining and quite a crowd assembled to enjoy the evening in spite of the night. That evening all the members of the cast were there and talking about who would use the hook. It was as an exceptionally strong mind that did not feel the stage fright to a certain extent. But all went well. After the play all but the last year Seniors thought it was fine rather than to own up that they were stung. We cleared about $50, which was exceptionally good for the night. The cast was not satisfied with just giving it once, so they decided to give it at Nemaha City. The hall was rented and the date set for March the 18th, and about one o’clock that Saturday afternoon they started in carriages for Nemaha. The weather was fine, so we got to Nemaha about 4 o’clock. Mr. Bates, after his joy ride in the auto the day before, decided he had better go down on the train. The play started about eight thirty and owing to but one practice since it had been given in Auburn, there were a few mistakes John Findlay, while talking to the girls behind the curtain, forgot he was one armed and come out with both arms swinging. We had a full house as it was a fine evening. We then came home feeling that we had done well, as we had cleared about fifteen dollars. This was the last appearance of the Senior play. We all felt it to be a success.
