A play that will be a dramatization | v Kate Douglus Wiggin of her own | story entitled “The Old Peabody Pew' will be produced by special arrange- ment with Samuel French of New York, at Trinity Methodist church I'riday evening at § o'clock. The play will be given under the auspices of the Ladies’ Aid society of the local church, The story tells of the need for re- pairs of the old church in a New Eng- jand village and of how the faithful women planned and contrived to maintain their heritage in the church they loved so well. 1'nder the pro- gressive rule of Mie Jere Burbank, the president, a new chimney has been built to the church, a new! furnace and a new cabinet organ| purchased. The greatest struggle of all was for the women to earn money enough to shingle the roof, which had ‘leaked, | persistently, for nearly half a cen- |tury. The leaks were stopped finally, | and the sisters of the Ladies' Aid leaned back' in their rocking chairs and drew deep breaths of satisfaction. |But a visitor was heard to remark lhat the meeting nouse would be one | lof the most attractive in the state n‘, it were more suitably carpeted. So the women cut and stitched and sewed through the long winter eve- | nings, to carpet the aisles and plat- | forms, leaving the owners of the pews to furnish their own carpet. A beau- | tiful love story of a Christian maiden land the almost hopeless struggle of |the man, ending in the glad reunion {in the meceting house, runs through- {out the play.
