Alter a gay ride, we climbed out before a large building 1111 the University Catnpus. and. after descending a flight of stairs found ourselves in Hart House. The zutditorium into which we were ushered was rather small witl1 a stage across the front and comfortable rows of chairs. As we awaited thc first scene. we eagerly watched for celebrities whom Miss Sinclair pointed out to us. or scanned itll' Pl'0Qfl'ClI11IHC5 with inteiest, At last tl1e chattering audience hushed, the curtains swung silently haclf. and we stepped into ancient Greece. I11 the first scene, we learned front tl1e con, yersation between determined Antigone and l1er rather timid sister that tl1eir uncle, the king. Creon, has forbidden l1er to bury her hrotlier. whom he considers n traitor. Des- pite threats of death. Antigone bravely de- fies her uncle Creon and gives l1er hrother's lmdv burial, a sacred and important ohligation 11111111113 the Greeks. As the tragedy unfolds. Creon cruelly carries out his threats by sen- tencing Antigone to death. hut. at last. cala- mity comes tlpon Creon himself, fllld he bit- tetlv laments his actions. Between SCSIICS, a Chorus of six elders an1l six women commented upon the action and foretold events as yet unrevealed. Ocs casionallv, the music of a single flute added to the charm of tl1e ancient Greek costumes. and when the curtain swirled down on the last chorus. we came back to realitv with a start. ' In a few minutes we were in our bus again, singing lustily as we left Hart House for home. josepliine Boyd, XII.-I ,

La grande horloge de la ville commengait a sonner fortement et lentement. Tout a coup un grand homme, habille en noir, et portant une canne a la main. sortit d'un edifice sombre. Il mareha vite et doucement a la grande maison au coin. Une settle fenetre etait vaguement eclairee. Portes closes. Un grand chien it la grille se Illt. Quelle protection n'est-ce pas!!! L'homme se tint debout et regarcla la maison pendant un moment avant d'entrer. Son coeur battait follement, mais il ouvrit la grille et y entra. Il arriva it la porte de la maison, et, sans frapper, il y penetra. Il lanqa un regard au- tour de luig il ecoutait. Il monta le grand escalier tournant et s'arreta a une grande porte de chene. Une lumiere brillait sous la porte. Arrivait.il trop tardP Non, c'etait impossible. S'arrnant de tout son courage, il ouwit la porte avec soin et jeta un coup tl'oeil au- tour de la salle. Son Coeur cessa de battre au tableau horrible clevant lui. Que vit-il! lfltait-il arrive vraiment trop tartl? Notre heros survivra-t-il it la situation?
