--T The Carlisleite -- All a Mistake The three act comedy which was presented May 15, by the Senior Class, entitled All a Mistake, by W. C. Parker, was a big success. The cast consisted of the six members of the Senior Class and two members of the Junior Class. The H. S. orchestra played several fascinating numbers between the changing of scenery. George Richmond, a Lieutenant in the 71st infantry, and his wife Nellie Richmond, arrives at their destination: which is Captain Skinner's Oakwood Farm, Westchester. Nellie Huntington is with them as a guest. To become an heir to his uncle's estate he must secure Nellie Huntington as his wife and not Nellie Blanchard. So as time goes on George Richmond asks Nellie Hungtington to pass as his wife until after he gets the money. A jealous plot is next staged. Cap- tain Obadiah Skinner is very much interested in this match and so tells his sister Cornelia CNelliej Skinner how his plans have worked out. The plot is at a very high tension when Richard Hamilton mistakes the Oakwood Farm for the State Insane Asylum next door. George predicts that all in the household are insane. Ferdinand Lighthead CRomeoj, a neighbor, comes to the house of Capt. Skinner to find his Nellie, Other Nellie's there mistake him for their Romeo. Even the servant Nell is so alarmed by the letter addressed Nellie, that she opens it and reads of his coming to Westchester. Mr. Hamilton while visiting the beautiful grounds is alarmed by the singing of a familiar voice, which he recognizes as that of his sweetheart Nellie Huntington with whom he has quar- reled. He is very sorry to think that his misconduct caused her affliction. George and Nellie Richmond make up after their spat of jealousy ceasesg Richard Hamilton meets Nellie Huntingtong Romeo meets his Nellie and the method of finding George a wife was All a Mistake.

-Hea The Carlisleite sal-on Senior Class Song lvhen the golden sun is melting In the purple of the nightg There is promise of the morrow, That it will be fair and bright. So today we see the gleaming, Through regrets that we must part, Of the beauty of the future, In the hopes that fill each heart. All the years we spent together Mid the scenes we love so well, Yvill remain as sweetest memories VVrapt in youthis sweet mystic shell, As we journey down life's pathway, Still our thoughts will oft returng To the happy days remembered. VVhen we strove life's rules to learn. We go forth with firm endeavor, and a purpose ever true, And our motto is Perfection, in whatever we may do, But though lands or seas divide us, We will ever cherish dear, Our beloved Alma Mater, and her name will we revere. Mabel Binegar. Much to Do About Nothing It was midnight on the ocean And was raining to beat the band The sailor did not mind it Cause he was sitting on dry land. The rain was pouring down The sun was shining bright And everything you could see Was hidden out of sight. When the organ pealed potatoes Lard rendered by the choir, While the Sexton rang the dish rag Some one set the church on fire. Holy Smoke the preacher shouted, As he sadly tore his hair Now his head resembles heaven, For there is no parting there. Bill 1 . Page Thirleen
