Curtain. Slowly the heavy velvet curtains draw apart and a southern Kentucky living room provides the setting for the class play Lena Rivers presented December 10th, in the Lincoln auditorium, under the supervision of Miss Beatrice B. Brunton. The story deals with the plight of young Lena Rivers and her beloved Granny Nichols who are compelled to leave their New England home and seek refuge with Granny Nichol's son, John, who has changed the family name of Nichols to Living- stone because of the social aspirations of his dominating wife, Matilda. Arriving in Kentucky where the Livingstones have a large plantation, Lena and her grand- mother are subject to the sort of treatment that is usually handed out to poor relations. Mrs. Livingstone insists that her husband's relatives live in a small room which formerly housed servants, and she and her daughter, Caroline, tremble with fear at the thought of their wealthy friends reactions to the awkward country girl and Granny Nichols. But there is one of Caroline's friends who sees Lena's potential worth-it is Durward Bellmont, whom Mrs. Livingstone plans to marry to her daughter, Caroline. Durward becomes enamoured of Lena and starts to pay her attentions, much to the astonishment of the wealthy Livingstones, who do everything they can to place Lena in a false position. The younger Livingstone daughter and her brother, John Junior, become Lena's firm friends and champion her cause, and Lena, in turn, aids Anne and helps along her romance with Malcolm Everett, a tutor in the Livingstone household. In the last act when it looks as though Lena were going to lose Durward, Fate steps in and proves our heroine's sterling worth. Lena turns out to be an heiress and the daughter of very wealthy friends of the Living- stone family.
