II French and Latin Plays ' f ON The French and Latin plays given by the students of the Lan¬ guage Department of the High School on December 20 were a great success in every particular, the youthful actors and actresses having their lines almost perfect¬ ly, and their acting being of a very high order. The plays were remarkably well done in many of the finer points of acting, the scenes being gone through easily and with little “up-stage” play to the audience, giving the feeling of actuality, which makes good acting. In the matter of cleverness, there was little choice between the players, especially in the Roman School, which went to the conclusion, with no prompting, and there was practically none in the French play, which was perhaps, a little more dif¬ ficult. as the actors had to catch their own cues, this making it necessary for them to know almost the entire play. The study hall was well filled with a respon¬ sive audience, which received the plays with the applause they merited.
