V, -A V.' ,w til ,11 RTX i HScs HUN'S PLAY AT PAGEREASING; HIT IS SCORED Olid of the Rroniesl Airirfce,s over token tho .MJcilford pnblie' was given th 'in at the produrHon of "Midsum mer Nighl'a Dream' n't the 1'np.e yes terday by the pupil tit HoocvcH M'linol. The lionrtc was filled to capacity mid the Aiutirnrc expected the usunl hcliool performance, inter mtinir and pntcrlainine to the tela lives and friends at the perfuhnerrt. Xltt n bit like It. TIip stiiRe pictures were not onlv cleverly iiroulicd, lull were enacted with ititttllijcvnce, jsrnee of notion and comprehension of drn- Inntiu iwsmbilitiea far beyond what ony one would expect from such youthful perfoi inert. In the way r comedy, the dance of the Ilrowuietf was as nmushij; n anything the regular road nIiows hnvp to offer, tlio.wufk of tbe two tiniest midgcta bringing forth gnlrs of laugh ter, and the entire net; bringing forth snrh applause that after repeated en cores it wan difficult to secure suf ficient rpiiet'tn continue the perform nncc, The dunce of the fairies wns ns dainty nitd graceful ns thoo Usually jjcrforraed by much more mature ac tors, and the comedy work of Hot tom, Quince nnd tbeir associates would have been a credit to "rown up." Unfortunately the writer is not fa miliar with the names of the partici-. pants, except such information AH could be ginned from tin; program, and for that reason, ns well as for the reason that the whole perform ance was ho uniformly meritorious, will not attempt to mention the par tictilarly bright Mars, except regard injc a few of the principals, whoso work merits special mention. Ilertlia Hurt wick a Puck was "it." If she were about 20 years older I Would say that she was a profession al expressly engaged to play the part. Xo less clever, but with less opportunity to display their talent, were Lethcw Meadows as Bottom, Clair Pickel as Oberon, Perry Gregg as Theseus nnd llmcc Putnam ns Hippolytc. Ilemiia, jwrtrayed by Irma Dyer, nnd, llencla, by Josephine I.indley, also deserve special eom ftiPtidfition, as does Volando Rummel for her clever impersonation of Kgens. And last, but not least. Paul in Johnson as Titnnia, whose grace ful gesture and jterfect solf-pOssea-eiun were worthy of an cxjicricncod actress, deserve more than a passing word. .Mrs. Gallagher, whose cleverness in giving these young people such a clear understanding of their parts, and her success in training1 them for such smooth concerted action, is en titled to the highest praise, ns are the teachers who assisted her in her work. It has been arranged with A. C. Al len and llolbrook VVithingtun to take Fomo "movies" of the play, to be shown in the films which they arc taking for the Jackson county ex hibit at the Panama Pacific; exposi tion. They have already taken u number of pictures of the folk dances for which the teachers bnvo so clev Vrly trained the children, nnd which were an attractive feature of the show. The entire Mrfonnanre will ho re pented nt an early date, lo be an nounced later. stocmoTat f DISASTER NEWS .CHICAGO, May 8. Hushes to sell wheat todny resulted in hnrp de clines.
