'LOST CHURCH' IN
TEACHES LESSON
Presentation of "The Lost Church"
by the drama club of the Epworth
League excelled all expectations Sun
day evening. i
Howard Foffenbarger, who had the
longest and hardest lines In the play,
gave a marvelous portrayal of a
worldly-wise man who scoffed and
leered at the church but finally real
ized that the church is responsible
for the high Ideals of the world
Janette Trill, who also had a hard
part, gave a superb Interprestatlon
of a mother, a faithful church sup
porter.
Lester Fay gave an excellent per
form b nee of the son, who, studying
for tbe ministry, labora under the
difficulties of his father's sarcasm and
ridicule, Margaret Bateman charm
ingly characterized the small daugh
ter who wanted her daddy to go to
Sunday school to hear her speak her
piece. Beth Gil lings gave a fine
representation of the Sunday school
teacher who was taking subscriptions
for the church. Arthur Cook gave an
effective execution of the modern
business man who accepted the
church merely aa a place for his
children to spend Sunday morning.
The first scene opens with the
father and his son discussing the
church. The mother comes home from
the missionary society meeting with
her small daughter. Later the Sun
day school teacher comes to take a
church subscription, but she curtly
refuses It after the man finds fault
with the church for spoiling hla only
holiday of the week and making his
only son a prearher. The sdene closes
with the Spirit of the Church, beauti
fully portrayed by Joyce Banish,
granting the man's wish that the
church and everything that the
church la responsible for could be
blotted off the earth. She Intro
duces the four spirits that dwell In
all places of the earth where the
light of the gospel of Jesus never
reached, Helen Power, Ignorance; Jean
Qllllngs, Spiritual Darkness; Ruth
LeClerc, Sin, and Marie Van Derm ark,
Social Injustice.
The second scene opens with the
four spirits in the background. The
daughter comes running In and sur
prises her father by saying that it is
such a nice day for a ride. She
doesn't know yhat a church Is. While
the man and his wife are looking out
the window at the saloon where the
church was standing a poor woman
comes In. The man cannot under
stand his wife, who acts so cruel to
the woman and sends her away. Then
the son comes in to tell his father
that he has ruined him by forging a
check. Following this comes the acci
dent to his little daughter, who Is
badly hurt, He Is dazed because his
wife tells him there Is no hospital
and the ' doctors would more than
likely kill her with their strange
remedies and eupors tit Ions. At Inter
vals during the second act the spirits
remind the man that It was the
coming of Christ who brought com
passion for the sick and suffering,
education, prohibition, emancipation,
hospitals, kindness and regard for
others.
The third scene opens with the visit
of the neighbor who comes with the
Sunday paper. The man tells the
neighbor of his bad dream and takes
him to the window and points out
the church, the college, the hospital,
and the settlement house; he asks
him If he should like to see dens of
wickedness In their places. The neigh
bor finally begins to see the men's
point of view. The man Is happy
because his son la going to be a
minister and the little daughter la
de lighter because her daddy Is going
to church and can hear her say her
piece.
In the last act the Spirit of the
Church and the four dark spirits are

this scene. One by one the spirits
throw off their black robes and step
forth with the foundations of the
church. The last curtain draws on
the crowning of the church. After
each spirit speaks the chorus, com

Margaret Bateman, Betty Paske, Ruth

Much of the appearance of the fine
performance was due to Marvin Burke,
who had charge of lighting the stage.
Besldee the footlights and overhead
lights, he flaed the lights In the sec
ond scene to give the Wlerd effects
so necessary to bad dreams. The last
scene was made very impressive by
the use of dark lights and colored
lights as the spirits stepped forth In
their pastel tinted gowns.
It can be said without a doubt that
the fine acting was due to the patient
and excellent direction of Miss
Myrna Barrett, who gave surprisingly
of her time for rehearsals. Mrs, H.
Crane was very generous In her aid In
the rafaii..',; of the costumes for the
spirits. CdRgtr's funeral home very
