DRAMATIC CLUB The Dramatic Club of Hartland Academy commenced another year un- der the guidance of Miss Brewer. In place of oH'icers the club elected a director, Patricia Lord, and two assist- ants, janet Seekins and WVinifred Mower. Meetings are held every other Tues- day, with an amusing program one meeting and a discussion of drama the next. At some of the meetings we studied the differences between good and poor plays, plot structure, and we also dis- cnssed how to choose plays for different occasions. At one meeting the play, Riders to the Seaf, by john Millington Synge, was read and the good and bad points were discussed. Our most interesting meeting was on grease paintf, We did one make-up, making a young person into an elderly spinster and then into a cheerful, friendly matron by the use of lines and other finishing touches. This knowledge was very useful in the making up of the characters in the Senior play. A play, Ask Nancyll' was put on as the club's assembly program in April. The remaining activities will include play production and direction, and choral readings. ' Patricia Lord 347
