THE PLAY is divided into three acts. Fall includes the orientation of the freshmen, the organization of the clubs, and the planning of activities for the year. Winter is the longest act of the ploy. Studying and examinations are the principal scenes, but there is fun, too, in club activities. Stunt Night, Christmas dances, and the Martha Washington Ball. Spring is the gayest of the three acts. There are the Sophomore May Day and the Junior Prom; but the Seniors have the center of the stage for the last few weeks in the Junior-Senior Banquet, Step-Night and Commencement. BETWEEN THE ACTS. Every play has its intermissions and we have two. In the first, we present for your enter¬ tainment Spot Shots As You Like ' Em. In the second, the sororities are presented one by one. They are pleasing interludes in the lives of the upper classmen. In these organizations they form life-long friendships and find more social life than is possible in the larger organization of the school.

THE STAGE is in and around Flora Stone Mather College Campus during the year of 1938-39. The directors, the deans and faculty, and the stage hands, the office force, are behind the scenes, directing the play, man¬ aging properties—working for a smooth performance. Their force is so subtle that to the incoming freshman, they seem merely a part of the setting; but to the stale freshman and all upper classmen they are a very important part of THE CAST. Every girl in Mather is a star in the play. The Seniors and Juniors receive the most attention, each having an individual picture, because of their longer service and their dignity. The Sophomores and Fresh¬ men are shown in candid shots as they actually gather on the campus. In the index are the Seniors ' activities ' list as well as the address of each girl in school.
