26 RUPERT,S LAND GIRLS' ScHooL The carefree, pleasure-loving but forgetful mummers were: Helen Martin, Jean Woodiiian, Patricia Purdie, Monica Mackersy, Sydney Roberts, Lillian Hultman, jean MacKay and Dorothy King. The incidental music which formed a lovely accompaniment to the movement of the play was interpreted by Miss Jackson and Mr. Palmason. The appropriate setting executed by Mrs. Edwards, was no small factor in contributing to the atmosphere. The dance in Act Il. composed and directed by Miss Lloyd, revealed the happy, carefree spirit of the mummers. Miss Turner, the cast and all those who gave their services in helping in the production of the play, deserve great thanks for the enjoyment they gave to so many of us. S PQRTS-1939-40 ' sv Itf . E!
