ttec ' te a . cliis. I c nil. 2 V- ' T In the middle of the winter the Seniors gave an interesting prugiam consisting of several musical numbers and three plays. .ne Which VVill He Marry, including the whole class in the east Ixlr. Wiggs, a barber, was represented by Robert Bachelorg Timothy. his friend, by Philip White. All the ladies in the town are wild over the barber, who pays no attention to any of them. At last 'l'i'n tells him that one of the eight business women on his block has inheiited a. fortune from a deceased uncle. Wiggs, not knowing which one it is. makes love to seven of them, while Timothy tries to find out the heiress. The eighth woman is scorned by Wiggs because he knows her folks have all been dead for years. The other women, i the meantime find out what a tickle-hearted wreteh the harler is and decide to punish him. Next Tim comes in and informs Wfggs that the eighth woman is the heiress. Just as the women are telling him of their decision-that he must marry them all-XViggfs proposes marriage to the heiress, but she refuses him, and he is again left alone. The next play, And the Lamp Went Out,, was in pantominc. The reader was Isabel Myers, while Gladys Finney, Ruth Newton, Genevieve Gibson and Hazel Fisher Cthe last two took the parts of boysj were the actors. The plot dealt with a. young man, the villain who 'tcrept' into the room where Evelyn was sitting. and tried to get her to marry him. She, angry, took her mother's arm, and left. the room. Her true lover came, tho, and by and by he and Evelyn Uwaltzed into the room. The mother ordered Herbert to leave the room. The two lovers sauntered into the conservatory, leaving the mother alone. The clock 'ticked on' and the 'lamp went out.' The last play, A Pair of Lunaties was a screaming comedy. lt dealtgwith two persons, a. young lady and a man, who met at a ball in a lunatic asylum. each thinking the other one crazy. The many foolish actions and speeches indeed seem to prove it so, altho 'tis found at last, that they are sane. The parts were taken by Helen Shull and Earliest Van VValker. Botany Teacher: Ullorraine, what is your favorite flower? Loie: 'tThe Sweet Willia1ii.

She was thrown vioently to the floor by the impact, but received only minor injuries, while he escaped with no broken bones. Moral-Slow down, toot your horn. and keep to the right on curves.
