SILAS MARNER Silas Marner is a three act play, dramatized from the novel by George Eliot. It was presented early in December by the Speech Class. Arch Williams was director of this fine presentation. The play takes place in the year 1795. Silas Marner was falsly accused of stealing church money and was suspended from church membership. The first act was Christmas Eve, 1809. This act portrays the miserly ways of Silas Marner. In this act, Silas finds that his money has been taken by a thief. Act two shows a complete change in the life of Silas Marner, from that of a miserly man to that of a kind hearted gentleman. Act three, Silas recovers this money and the true parents of Silas' adopted daughter, Eppie, are revealed to her. The play ends with Eppie saying, lsn't ours a pretty house? I think no one could be happier than we are. My gold, my gold. CAST OF We should like to adopt Eppie. A William Dane ..,... Sarah Lynn .c,,... Parson Paston ..,,.,. Silas Marner --,- .,.. - .....

T HE LASS OF LIMERICK TOWN The Payson High School Chorus Classes presented The Lass if Limerick Town , a two act opera which was directed by Arvil W. Huff. Drama instructor was Arch Williams, and dance director was Miss Clara Johnson. The opera was written and composed by Arthur A. Penn. Due to a death-bed promise, Rose McCoy is supposed to marry Captain Worthington. Since Rose has never seen the Captain, and she feels that he is only after her money, she and Betty McCoy, her cousin, trade places. The Captain comes and falls in love with Betty, as the cousins hoped he would. When his parents arrive from England, they are very disturbed for they need money badly. The Captain still wants Betty, even when he finds she is poor. Then Ezra Q. Hicks comes from America and proves that Betty is the' elder of the two so the money belongs to her after all. In this way, Sir Charles an-d Lady Worthington are satisfied and everything turns out as planned. The principles were supported by a chorus of eighty voices. Everyone enjoyed the opera and the cast felt well paid for their extra work on an out- standing production. Q. hp.-- Molly, mine.
