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

O'Brien, widow sister of Uncle Hob

part.

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.
Nick showed enjoyment of count i-v'

THE CLASS PLAV
The Senior class of tho It. C. 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.

They seemed perfectly natural in their
acting of these parts. Mrs. Jenkins '
tried to make her guests always feel
at home.
