Senior Play Will Be
Given Friday Night
The annual senior play, one of the
outstanding features of the com
mencement program of the Waynes
ville Township High School, will be
presented in the school auditorium to
morrow, Friday, beginning at eight
o'clock.
This entertainment, "Come Out of
the Kitchen," a comedy in three acts
by A. E. Thomas, ig given under the
able direction of Miss Hester Ann
Withers, member of the Hazelwood
faculty, and enacted by a group of the
high school's most talented students.
The scenes, staged in present time,
and taking place in the Daingerfield
mansion in Virginia, were originally
presented by George M. Cohan, with
Ruth Chatterton, Bruoe McRae, and
Walter Connally in the cast.
Besides three acts of comedy, spe
cial music and other entertainment
will be furnished.
The story is written around a Vir
ginia family of the old aristocracy,
by the name of Daingerfield, who,
finding themselves temporarily em
barrassed, decided to rent their home
to a rich Yankee. One condition stip
ulates that a staff of white servants
should be engaged for his sojourn at
the stately hom. The servant ques
tion presents practically insurmount
able difficulties, and one of the
daughters of the family conceives the
mad idea that she, her sister, and
two brothers shall act as the domestic
staff. When Burton Crane and his
guests arrive from the north, they
find the staff of servants to possess
so many methods of behavior out of
the ordinary that amusing complica
tions begin to arise immediately.
The merry story continues through a
maze of delightful incidents until the
real identity of the heroine is finally
disckxsed.

Our own appointment as
a Dealer for KELVINATOR
We are mighty proud of this appointment. Because after seeing all the new
1936 refrigerators we know we would rather offer our customers Kelvin
ator than any other make.
It's revolutionary! Not just an improved model but a refrigerator so far
ahead that it makes yesterday's electric refrigerators obsolete.
Don't take our word for it. Come in and see it for yourself. And if you're
ready to buy remember a Kelvinator costs no more and terms are easier
than ever. Come in and see why we're so enthusiastic about being a Kelvin
ator dealer in 1936!
