SUCGESS IS REWARD OF TEACHER’S CLUB !xm Bltemimam iven i Teachers ehub were ju-muhly proud of, Mefl“"‘ last. evening. at the auditorium where an en- tormm was produced for the benefit of the clubroom fund. Pro- fessional thespians assert that the audience plays an important role in the success of those on the other side of the footlights. Enthusiastic re- sponse .to the efforts of the entertain- ers, is the prime necessity. The ap- pmfllflon of/ last night's High school audience, the bond of friendship and pleasurd that. wove an intangible thread between the stage and the other parts of ‘the hall, was one to inspire to best efforts those whose task it was to speed the clock during two hours and a half of sterling en- tertainment. And that the young women succeeded was testified to by the warm applause with which each number was greeted. It would be difficult to~"select any certain number on the program as having more merit than another but premier honors must go to the one act comedy “The Kleptonfaniac” with s cast of seven. ‘The plot'is woven around the loss By a young society woman of her purse, containing $100 and a number of rings, including her engagement ring The efforts of her friends to locate the missing treasure provided laughter galore. The young ‘woman is certain that her pocket was picked while she was attending a Te- cital and suspicion falls on a woman who sat in an adjoining seat and who picked up her coat When it. fell-to the floor.

To the horror of all concerned, it is learned that the woman who is suspected of the theft is a distinguished matron, wealthy, of exceilent - social standing—and ex- for lunch. Effarts to call oft e dogs of the law and to prevent, otherwise, the arrest of the woman with the ‘“‘seven’ gore” skirt afford miore laughter. To cap the climax, the ,mh(oundlnflumoltho Each membor of the cast handied lines well and there was scarcely & break in the production of the comedy. The setting was above the ordinary and the action of the piece was smooth. The club is to be con- gratulated on the ability of its members. The cast of characters was as follows: Mrs. John Burton—Peggy Grace H. Burns Mrs. Valerie Chase Armsby, a young widow Grace Flannery Mrs. Charles Dover—Mabel—a bride Estelle M. Waddell Mr! Preston Ashley—Bertha . Marion White . Mary A. Cox journalist .. Florence Hickey maid e Mnrion Hoar Second honors on the program were divided between esthetic = and falk dancing on the one part and “Poor Butterfly” and ‘“Castles in the Air,” by a sextet, one the other part. “The dancing numbers were executed by Helen Sheehan, Irene Byrne, Pearl Dougan and Olive Ware, in numbers for four people, and Cornelia Hagoun and M. Alma Crowe, in numbers for two. The dancing was really a reve- lation to many New Britain folk, who were nat aware that they had such agile and graceful nymphs in their midst. Thé sextet was composed of Mary , Donahue, Mildred Anderson, Kaf erlno Murphy, Estelle M. Wad- dell, Astrid Anderson and Frances Brady. The solo part was taken by Mrs, Howard Horton, who was pressed into service at the last moment when it was learned that Miss Marion Egan, who was originally cast far the role, was suffering from tonsilitis, Miss Adele D.

Another interesting musical number, was given by Miss Littiehales, pianist, her program consisting of meditatton from “Thais” by Massenet and im-" promptu by Chopin.

M. C. A, May 22 and 29 and June 1. Educational Secretary A. ©. Wash- burn of the Y. M. C. A. announces that arrangements have been made with Dr. Katherine M .H. Blackford to deliver a series of three lectures at the Y. M. C. A. on “Character An- alysis,”” Tuesday evenings, May 22 and 29 and Friday evening, June 1. Dr. Blackford began years ago to study everything she could find out about human beings. Back and forth she went, all over America, watchiny and studying all kinds of people in al] kinds of places, charting in detail the characteristics of 15,000 persons. Later she compared this data with the information she gained by an_ extend- ed examination of more than fifty dif- ferent nationalities in a tour around the world. This vast fund of inforthation was then classified by her, and now for a number of years she has been using this knowledge and the skill she has attained in helping thousands of young men and women decide what line of work they should choose and follow out as'their life work. So ‘successful has she become in se- lecting men and women for all kinds of positidns, that some of the large corporatons of the country have en- guged her services for weeks at a time to ‘help them solve their employ- ment problems. Dr. Blackford has written a number of books; perhaps the most popular one.is “The Job, The Man, and The Boss.” She has lectured in Y. M. C. A.’s before boards of trade, trade con- ventions, economfc and scientific so- cleties, executive and university clubs. The subjects of her lectures are: First, “Why You Are What You Are"; second, “How.to Size Up Men,” an@ third, “Business and Social Uses of Character: Analysis.” will sum up the principles which she has taught by analyzing, from the platform, several men chosen 'from the audience. The lectires are open to both men and women. Dr. Blackford | OTHERS, the fact that you receive an extra pair of trousers with your iy 1 Boys’ Suit need not lower its qual- 1 .
