□ VERMILION SCHOOL OF AGRICULTURE P THE DRAMATIC CLUB (Continued on Page 39) married to Liz; and Elaine pretends to be the wife of Bob, and at first neither dares to tell the truth. Bing loves Liz but Tom is in the way, and Angela loves Bob but Elaine is in the way. Aunt Alice loved Uncle Will, but she thinks he married an old rival of hers; and Mrs. Reese still loves Ahenobarbus her “poor depart¬ ed first,” in spite of the fact that she has buried no less than two husbands since. Jerry is also in the run for he says he is in love with Angela. The story is how these lovers finally become united in mar¬ riage to their true affinities and the difficulties they have in doing so. Comical parts we will never forget are when Uncle Will brings in the baby which he declares must be like him and then discovers it to be the dog! Jerry baking the cake, and later Mrs. Reese putting the “lid” on it; Liz describing her honeymoon, and, later, eating her soup. It is hoped that it will be possible to stage a short play on the last night, entitled “Mix Well and Stir.” It is the hope of all those who took part this year that the V.S.A. Amateur Dramatic Club will become a permanent part of the School life in years to come, and in closing we leave this message to future students that it is up to them to continue and improve what we have begun. It is also our sincere hope that Mrs. Horning will be here next year to carry on her good work. THE DEBATE (Continued from Pago 30) task of eliminating the superfluous and boiling the subject down to presentable form. Miss Winnie Gilbert was chosen as the leader of the High School team and was ably assisted by Miss Edith Shields; for the “College,” Cecil Warner acted as captain with Miss Netta Stephen as his first-mate. All four speakers being new to the game, their first appearance may be said to have been entirely successful if we look at the essential issue of the debate; that is, the four young speakers faced the crowd of more or less critical listeners and ably demonstrated that they were masters of their minds and their tongues. It is true that some improvement could have been obtained had longer time been available, but all things being considered, their efforts may be said to have been attended with success. It is impossible to recount their arguments in detail, on this page, but Mr. J. W. G. Morrison, Chairman of the local School Board, who acted as one of the judges, in company with the Rev. H. A. Boyd and Mr. F. C. Richardson, and who rendered the decision at the close of the debate, took advantage of the opportunity of congratulating the young oratory aspirants on their material and on the manner in which it had been presented, mentioning especially Miss Winnie Gilbert, who led the High School team to a victory and to possession, for a year, of the beautiful Stevens Cup. The students of the High School had prepared some of their yells and were heard to good advantage during the evening and especially when the result was announced; the College students, being also ready with some noise, can hardly be said to have taken second place in delivering their yells, and the groups vied with each other in a genial interchange of representative yells. Dr. W. W. Bell, who kindly acted as Chairman of the evening on which the debate was held, presented the cup to Miss Gilbert with remarks that were suitable to the occasion, after which an enjoyable program was carried out by the students of V.S.A., the British boys taking a prominent part. Our picture of the V.S.A. Debating Team shows Miss Netta Stephen, Mr. Cecil Warner, members of the team, and Mr. Stanley Johnson, who acted as coach and generally assisted the debaters in the preparation of their material. t T M.
