The acting of the entire cast

and . common amateurish touches
of local productions. The presenta
tion was excellent, and the work
of-each person splendid.
The. properties committee was
composed of ' Misses Eleanor Ter

sisted by Arthur Little of the cele
brated Barter Theatre of Abing
ton, Va. The business affairs were
handled- by Bill Way, manager,
and Miss Winnie Eskrigge, assist
ant manager.
The play was given for the pri
mary purpose of stimulating inter
est in the Little' Theatre in High
