POLISHED PEBBLES Polished Pebbles may have been the last but not the least of the three big operettas given by the school in the past two weeks. The 6th grade lined right up in rank with the others when they pre sented their play, Friday evening in tlie Auditorium. The characters as impersonated were: Uncle Bob disguised as a ne gro in Act I Tom Attld; Mrs. O'Brien, widow sister of Uncle Hob Helen McXeny; Rosalie. Mr. O'Brien's neice Kdna Koontz: Winni- frea and Millicent, daughters of Mrs. O'Brien, Erma Bradfotd and Thelnm Mercer; Mrs. Gabble, Town Gossip Do Etto Corner; Mr. Gabble, hen pecked husband Raymond Slawson; Martha and Nick, county children Elizabeth Mizer and Frank Cowden. Chorus of Sunbonnct Girls and Overall Boys carried on the musical part. Wo could speak in laudilory phrases ' oi each one and then not say half of iU . ! Every character was splendid and , most of them could not be beaten by amateurs anywhere. ' The gossip of Mrs. Gabble was broad-cast, but did no one any great harm and won her grent applause.

High .School presented tho comedy drama,) I ho Dream That Came True," under the direction of Miss Elizabeth Over man, Wednesday evening in tlie Besso auditorium. This play was rather hard to give as it was deen and hiirhli' ibrmvitir. unlike most class plays, which are usually in a lighter vein. It dealt j with problems of the day capital j and labor. Tho scone was laid in a factory town of tho present day. , It was about Christmas time, nnd all the joy and happiness of thnt an nual occasion was manifested in Mis. 1 .lenkins' boarding house. Every character was splendidly portrayed. Veina Trine as Nan Woithington, one of the people, and Paul Throne as Gordon Clay, forc man of the wot ks, carried tho hcavt- , ot parts. .Tosenhino.

I Mrs. Jenkins, keeper of the board ing house, or Gesina Boonvnncl Rola ' York as Angelina Maud, iter daugh-' ler, were the fun makers of it all. j They seemed perfectly natural in their acting of these parts. Mrs. Jenkins ' tried to make her guests always feel at home.
