£ pttuir Hrflrrtnr MOTHER CAREY’S CHICKENS The Senior Class Play was given in the Junior High School Auditorium on December 4, 1925. Not the least among those who helped to make this play a great success was the cast. Harry Walker, as Ossian Popham, was a typical, friendly neighbor in a small New England village. Harry displayed unusual ability in characterizing this unique character. Ossian Popham will never be forgotten by any one who saw “Mother Carey’s Chickens”. The part of Gilbert Carey, a likely young lad and family negotiator for the Yellow House, was played by John Wilson. He was a dashing and lovable star, and a “boss delivery boy”. Janeace Davidson, as Nancy Carey, was the shining star who took the place of the path-finder in her mother’s heart, and brought light into the Carey household. Ruth Hannon, as Mother Carey, was the sweetest Mother that ever could have been. The part, as Ruth played it, showed just how understanding a mother can be. Elizabeth Brown was a perfect Kathleen, the shy little star, whose quietness toned down the excitable moments of the play. The cast was assisted by Milton Kaplan who is only seven years old and in the second grade. He took the part of Peter Carev so well that most people thought he was a Senior. Tne sternness of Cousin Ann Chadwick, played by Evelyn O’Neil, made a great hit with the public. Evelyn graciously substituted for Kathryn Cart, who was ill. Gertrude Stenhouse, in the part of Julia Carey, was a snobbish self-centered girl of eighteen. Gertrude’s portrayal of this part was very outstanding and true to life. Mrs. Popham, wife of the optimist, Mr. Popham, was manager of that family. Lillian Schwimmer gave a fine interpretation of the curious, pessimistic and gossipy Mrs. Popham, and caused a great deal of merriment. Lallie Joy,the dowdyish daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Popham,was played by Estelle Silvian and she proved to be a joyous and enjoyable sort of person, indeed. Charles Stross, as Ralph Thurston, courageously accented Nancy’s preference in regard to hand, in a truly admirable manner. We liked this country
