Marioneffe Show MARGARET IHRIE, 9-l During first period on May lOth, Mr. and Mrs, Hyde presented a marionette show entitled Jack and the Beanstalk. This story is a fairy tale known to all boys and girls, but Mr. and Mrs. Hyde have created some additional scenes which made the story more interesting. It was a three act show, and during the acts Mr. Hyde talked to the pupils about citizenship. The complete work of the show was in charge of Mrs. Hyde: she took the part of all the people in the show by changing her voice, and she made the movements by strings whichshe moved with her hands and sticks. f , thirty-five
