In the little mining town of Sm1th's Pocket lives George Smlth and his daughter, M'L1ss. Smith is the town's loafer who works with the belief that he will strike great wealth in his small claim. M'L1ss ls the only one who doesn't ridicule him. Two eastern schemers come to Sm1th's Pocket and plan to do away with Smith as they have heard Sm1th's brother has died and left him his fortunes. They pose as relatives to gain possession of his fortune. Old Smith is murdered and the young school teacher, Grey, whom M'Llss loves, is blamed. M'Llss clears Grey from blame and outwlts the sohemers which forms the basis of the exciting and emotional play. Into this story are woven many colorful characters such as Bess Starlight, a fascinating actress who plays havoc with the heart of Yuba Bill, a comic cowboy, Clytle Moff1ts,'a sweet little thing' who is in rivalry with M'L1ss for Grey: and old Judge McSnaggley who holds court in the lobby of the Roar1n'Dog Hotel. The play was well attended and the Senior Class made S125 clear profit from both nights' receipts. 27

Collins, B. Heber The 'L1vely, Loyal Librarians' have been very active this year and have received practical library training while assisting our school librarian, Mies French. The following officers were elected when the club organized last fall: President, Ellen Collins: Vice President, Charlottelightman: Sec. and Trees., Erma Robinson: Typists, Ernestlne Parsons and Esther Shafer: Advisor, Miss French. Library work offers a variety of duties in the high school library, such as preparing new books for the shelves, reading shelves, checking out books, filing, dusting and arranging bulletin board displays. The student librarians also help students ln locating books on the shelves and in selecting suitable books for supplementary reading. In the grade library, which has been newly organized this year, the students act in the place of the regular librarian. The students of the first six grades have regular library periods each week, at which time they come to the library to check out books. After the children have checked out their books, lwhich may be borrowed for one weekl they greatly enjoy the story hour. The l1brar1an's most important Job is to keep the books neatly arranged on the shelves and signing out books for the students. The year's work has been enjoyable as well as educational and each student librarian feels that he has greatly increased his knowledge of books and authors. 26

During the first two weeks of rehearsal, three members of the cast had the mumps. Then our director Miss French, was absent two weeks because of illness, during which time Miss Mlllspaugh generously contributed 'her services. Miss French returned a week before the performance to polish up the play and get it ready for production. While the cast and Miss French were working on the play, Mr. MacMillan and several members of the Junior class were busy finishing the new scenery and stage setting. This added much to the success of the play and gave the cast the added inspiration for acting. Fred Sharp, who played the leading role of 'Justice Jimmy' did an excellent Job of acting. He was backed, however, by an exceptionally well-chosen cast who had their parts learned perfectly. About four hundred people saw the play and were con- fident they hgd seen their money's worth. Many people have called the play the best yet in A. . . 28 I
