€ be 1025 I ft a p +-— S. T. H. S. DRAMATIC CLUB Early in October the students of S. T. H. S. who were interested in dramatics met to organize a dramatic association. About seventy students joined the club at the first, several dropping out before the year was over. The idea of the club is to promote student interest in dramatics and ability to present plays. The officers elected for the year are as follows: President—Arthur Hill; Vice President—Harriet Paine; Secertary—Edward Mosher, Treasurer—Robert Vlack. Miss Hennis and Miss DuVal were faculty advisors. The first program consisted of two one-act plays “The Crimson Cocoanut” and “The Neighbors which were acted by members of the Dramatic Club. These two plays brought out the dramatic ability of the students who took part, especially that of the Freshmen and Sophomores. The proceeds of the entertainment were given over to the curtain fund. We are glad to say that the curtains are almost paid for. The Dramatic Club of this year has been more active than clubs of former years. A program and business meeting was held every month sponsored by a committee of members, while formerly the meetings were few and far between. FINIS 'Tis fine to see the old school, and travel up and down Among the famous corridors and class rooms of renown. To admire the stately teachers and the period bell that rings— But now I think I've had enough of antiquated things. So it’s home again, and home again, the old home for me! My heart is turning home again, and there I long to be, In the place of youth and freedom beyond the classroom walls. Where the grass is full of sunlight and the air is full of balls. Oh, Algebra has its fancies, English has its nouns; And Latin has it theses, and all the spelling downs; And it's sweet to dream in study-hall, and it’s great to study Rome; But when it comes to living, there is no place like Home. —Henry Werener Page Twenty-one

€ be 1 9 2 5 MUp SENIOR PLAY THE “ADAM AND EVA CAST Adam and Eva , a charming three act comedy by George Middleton, was pre-sented by the Senior Class, Monday Evening, June 1. The scene of the play was laid partly in New York and partly in New Jersey. Mr. King (Hurdman Bark) who had made a large fortune through his business organisations had two daughters, Eva (Octa Wesson) and Julie (Florence Brandenburger) who had been spoiled ever since they were children. Julie, the older daughter, was married to Clinton DeWitt (Carlton Hough.) Clinton was an idle youth who found sufficient occupation with tailors, polo games, and parties. Eva, King’s younger daughter, had much charm and also happened to have a flock of admirers. Among them were Dr. Dclamater (Stanley Crum) and Lord Andrew Gordon (Donald Campbell.) Aunt Abby (Bernice Woodbury) was an old maid, sponging on her rich brother-in-law. This spinster character, hard for a high school student to portray, was well acted. Where there is an aunt there should be an uncle, but Uncle Horace (Roy Paulson) was no relative ot Abby s. He had come to spend a week end and had stayed fifteen Vears- (Continued on Page 28) Page Twenty
