Ky. who apoke to the upper class men at as- sembly Monday. The boys. who ranged in vears from ten to sixteen, were excelient speakers and held the strict attention of their audience from the beginning to the end These youthful evangelists did not ome here to appeal for funds. but to bring the facts concerning the condi- tions of these people before the stu- dents. They brought out the fact that | this territory had produced one Lin- coln, and that there were many others there in the making who only needed a chance. Tt was one of the most satisfactory chapels of the year. During the practice of the extended | order this year the cadets will wear a different uniform from the one used in close-order drill. In the years gone by the same uniform has been used for both kinds of drill. The regular uniform is well suited for drilling in close order. but for extended order. where the men are half the time on the ground, or are kneeling, the regu- lar uniform is scarcely suitable. Con- sequently a new uniform has been ordered. This uniform will be used only in practice, and the regular un form wiil be worn on the competitive drill fleld. The new uniform consists of khaki breeches with wrapped leggins, blue shirt and black tie and the regular cadet cap. The cadets can flop” as hard as ihey wish without hearing an ominous rip or without fearing to_ have their suits become grass or mud stained. EASTERN HIGH SCHOOL. stern’s spring play. “A Midsum- mer Night's Dream.” is to be present- ed May 3, 4 and 5. The efforts of the high school students are particular- 1¥ ~ successful Apirit and their ability to vary their moods as the play becomes joyful or sorrowful, amusing or serfons, all goes to make the play a great suc- cess. There is no other poet who can look as comprehensively, deeply, and vet sympathetically into the hearts of the young people of all times as Shakespeare. The cast selected is ad- mirably suited to plerce the inner- most spirit of the writer. As the days pass, the players are keyed to the highest pitch of enthusiasm, and seem, in truth, to be the characters they ‘represent. Under the very able direction of Miss Ethel T. Prince and Miss Kate . Moore, the rehearsals are progres- sing rapidly. At the beginning, some doubt was expressed as to whether “Billy” Clem- entson_could ever become a good Jover. However, he is an excellent ac- tor, and is getting along very well with Marie Didden to whom, as Her- mia, he must make love. Marie Did- den, the dark-haired Hermia, is also a_splendld actor. She quite remark- ably changes her voice from the pathos of the forest scemes to the oy of the wedding feast. Mildred Boynton, too. is an_excep- tionally fortunate choice for Helena, possessing all the fair dignity of that Their exuberance of | {issue | was Wed- | Lawrence ! { ganization “This is the National Capital, and|literary 1 ] ex- | i [ fnoon | the !

The es are delizhtfully graceful and John Hesse is Stage manager. v le corps of assistants he nplishes a great amount of work. The music is to be rendered by the 0ol orchesira, under the direction of s, ram. assisted by Minnle Hoxey, a gifted student. This adds a great deal to the play At an assembly Thursday.

WESTERN HIGH SCHOOL. The Western Civic Asoclation is preparing to open its annual clean-up, paint-up campaign. The association | usually conducts a campaign of like character every spring when the school is just entering on its last lap of the vear. Perhaps the most results are obtained with the co-operation of the students in the careful distri- bution of trash around the school, for this is one place where the &lightest untidiness is noticeable because of the magnificent approach proudly boasted of by the pupils. To overcome this thoughtlessness the assoclation is placing trash baskets on the lawns around the school and in the corri- ors. Western is to be well represented in the Shakespearean pageant to be presented May 7, 8, 9, 10 and 11. Five girls have been selected to portray the part of Queen Elizabeth in the pageant, and Western is represented by Virginia Burbank- as the Queen, Serge Korff as Master of Ceremonies and the following court ladies and gentlemen: Christine Stewart, May Conrard, William Scott and Tom Stevens. The girls' swimming team often wished for by Westerners has at-last become a reality, for this year it is planned to organize such a team and at the present time the following girls are making bids for the coveted positions: Betty Hannay, Marian Car- michael, Ellen Louise Warfleld, Nancy ‘Wesson, Helen Wesson, Sylvia Meyer, Margery Shinkle, Katherine Martin, Dorothy Smith, Alice Owens and Hen- rietta Owens. The official annual yearbook of Western Is now being prepared and is to g0 to press this week. The pic- tures of the various organizations have been taken and the stories and lectur- | Doris : was enter- | snapshots are being arranged by the staff.

There are many trpes of planting in the city that should be familiar to stu- dents of nature study and gardening. but heretofore this has been impos- sible through lack of convenient and reasonable transportation.

Bannister and Sadgwar. The demon- stration was roundly applauded. The boys of Company H. the cadet unit of Shaw, are elated over the rawing” for the annual competitive drill to be held in May. They believe that to march on the field ninth has many advantages. Among these they clte the cool of the late afternoon. the confidence gained by seeing the other companies maneuver and the thrill of facing the large audience which usually fills the stands at that time. Shaw is fortunate in securing the services of two friends of the school to assist Mrs. Fannie Douglass in handling the difficult choral work in- cident to the rehearsals of “All At Sea,” a Gilbert Sullivan operetta, to | be presented May 4 and 5 at Dunbar High School.
