Community of effort and a spirit of cooperation were evi denced in the creative production; and enthusiasm and spon taneity were the keynote attitudes of the 75 people making up the cast. , Especially marked is the wonderful work which is being lone with the children. Every : parent who sees the play to day or tomorrow will be quick to realize what such a play as "The Piper" is doing for chil dren. In the cave scene for instance where the children are gathered around the Piper, part of the time sleeping, part of the time talking enthusiastically there has been developed a naturalness in the wee actors that will go far toward development of poise in the young folk where ever they may find themselves. The production has such beau ty of costuming in both color and lines, such artistic stage settings. the music has been so well fitted to the mood ot the acting through the efforts ot Mrs. William Burg hardt. Marguerite Blumenburg Dalton, and William Wright, and the parts have been so naturally developed that the ensemble is beautiful and thrilllngly impres sive. The play was written by Jose phine Preston-Peabody and won the 1910 Shakespearean Festival prize. The following cast present it for the first time in Salem: Strolling Players The Piper, Harold Mero; MIchael-the-Sword Eater, Kenneth Schooler; Cheat- the-Devil, Clyde Warden Men and Women of Hamelin Jacobus, the Burgomelster, Arnold Taylor; Kurt, the Sundlc, R.
