Enjoy Two Ehort Playlets Also Bis cuss Organising a Protective Association for Belief. At the meeting of the Mynard Community club Friday evening, a move was launched to organize the farmers of the vicinity to protect themselves against trespassing of hunters. It seems to be quite com mon for these city hunters to shoot poultry and once in a while a hog. Besides, the carelessness of their ac tion endangers human life as well as the safety of farm property. It is the Intention, after perfecting the organization, to have a local game warden appointed who can soon be on the ground after being notified to take care of these undesirable visi tors. It is to be hoped that this nuisance will soon be a thing of the past. . The major attraction of the even ing was the two one act plays put on by the ladies of the club. The first play. "Paradise." was supposed to have taken place at a New Hamp shire railroad station, when a young woman was storm bound, there being no hotel in the town and so she de cided to remain at the station all night, which was strenuously object ed to by the station agent. Neverthe less she was undaunted and remained, to the enjoyment of the audience. The characters in this play were Miss Viv ian Livingston, Mrs. Ida Cole. Mrs. Howard Wiles and Mrs. Raymond Cook. The second of the plays, "The Quiet Hotel," seemed to be the opposite of what the name would suggest. The characters in this play were Mrs. C. C. Barnard, Mrs. Roy Cole and Mrs, S. W. Cole. The reporter, not having had ex perience as a dramatic critic, cannot do justice to. the ladies putting on these two plays, but suffice it to say that they all seemed to be as much at home on the stage as though it was a daily occurrence, and judging from the applause, their rendition was very much appreciated.
