(By Bill Cummins.)
Each role an example of amateur
perfection, the entire cast of the sen
ior class play, held In the high school
auditorium last night, combined to
turn in what the capacity house ex
claimed an exceptional high school
production of Eugene Hafere comedy
in three acta, "Take My Advice."
Well cast characters featured the
performance, which was supported
by each of the players with like abil
ity, and given proper emphasis by
the acting of the leads, who stood
out as excellent examples of high
school talent. The play was well
rounded out In every detail and weak
spots were conspicuous by their ab
sence.
The most Important and most dif
ficult role was well taken care of by
Luclan Clement, as Bob Mannlon, a
striving newspaper editor, held In
obeyance to the will of his creditor,
a dominating politician, John war-
grim, controlling the town of Eureka
through the medium of Mannion's
paper.
Clement's portrayal of the helpless
editor was a highlight of the play,
and formed a nucleus for the per
formances of the rest of the characters.
He was supported In the lead by
Jean Qulsenberry, who turned In a
noteworthy portrayal of Peggy Acton,
niece of the dominating politician,
and centered the feminine charac
terizations. It was Peggy who gave
the (2000 to Mannlon that enabled
him to pay off his debt in time to
reverse the situation and ruin the
plans of the dictatorial Wargrlm.
BUI Prentice, as the politician, step
ped into the role with Just the proper
type of gruff assurance to provide
necessary vlllalnry to the plot.
The humor of the play was sup
plied In good measure by a quartet
of characters whose comedy work
centered around the activity of Jimmy
Samson, a breezy salesman whose
business, in representing a city cor
poration was waking up towns such
as Eureka, and rushing their pros
perity. The part of Samson was clev
erly portrayed by Bob Sherwood, who
put across the whole idea with a
personality -plus characterization en-

CUT YOUR

OIL SPRAY
BILL IN HALF
Use S- W Summer Mulsion
MOST emulsions require 1 gallon to each 100 gallon, of water
to kill Codling Moth eggi. Many tetti show that S-W
Summer Mulsion 1 99 effective when used at only yi gallon
to 100 gallons of water. S-W Summer Mulsion costs no more than
other brands, so it literally cuts your summer oil spray bill in half I
Lead Arsenate sprays are applied to kill the Codling Moth lar- .
vae. Adding S-W Summer Mulsion to this spray prevents the eggs
from hatching. You already have a fated cost for labor in applica
tion of a Lead Arsenate spray so adding S-W Summer Mulsion is a
remarkably Inexpensive item In your worm control program.
Two of the most Important factors in Summer Oil sprays are,
the safety to fruit and foliage and the effect upon the removal of
the spray residue. Where necessary to make several oil applica
tions during the season, S-W Summer Mulsion Light may be used
without apparent Interference with the normal sire or color of the
fruit and without complicating the residue removal problem. By
actual orchard practice of many years, as well as insectary tests,
it has been proven that Sherwin-Williams' Summer Mulsion
Light is as effective as Medium Oils as an ovicide when used at

titling him to a large share of ac
claim.
The part of the town philosopher.
Jud Fen ton, a shiftless soul with a
good share of pithy wit, was done
fine Justice by Galen Knox. Knox
entered the role with an ease that
speaks well for his dramatic talent.
He was the agent through whom
Peggy loaned the editor money to
pay his debt to Wargrlm.
Mrs. Nelson-uodd, president of the
Uplift society, was characterized by
Helen Crane, In s well-acted per
formance, the role furnishing the tar
get for most of shiftless Jud's witticisms.
Vlrgy Mannlon, Bob's sister, was
characterised by Suzette Stennett,
who was completely at home during
the entire performance, and added
clever touches of humor to the al
ready amusing situations arising
around the breezy actions of the
business-rusher, Jimmy Samson, her
opposite.
The haughty fiancee of Bob Man
nlon, Marcla, daughter of John War
grlm, was played by Margarlte Boyle,
whose clever work of driving her
erstwhile suitor rounded out the per
formance and provided an extra
touch of good acting.
The play was climaxed with Man
nlon accepting the loan which would
free him from the clutches of John
WSrgrlm. The prosperity rushing
project of Jimmy Samson was under
way and together with an extra edi
tion of Mannion's paper, the down
fall of the ruling politician was
brought about and Mannlon left free
to win the hand of Peggy Acton,
as tbe curtain went down amid the
optimism of Samson's new business
era.
The production was directed In its
entirety by Miss Doris Baler, In
structor In English and drama coach.
and its splendid casting may be at
tributed to her, as well as a good
share of the success of the play Itself.
Newsboys who appeared on thu
stage were Joe McKec, Bob Gall, Fred

The orchestra rendered selections be

The county court and county offi
cials held a conference Wednesday
and discussed the status, of the bud

the same for the year.
A recent audit by E. M. Wilson
shows that In the first four months
of the year 34.3 per cent of the bud

by the end of the year there will be
a slight deficit.
Retrenchment was urged In all
county offices and activities so as
to keep within the allotments for the

Goodyear has licked problem that baffled the
tire industry with the new "G-3". See it here!
IT TAKES a better tread to keep its
grip on modern high-speed high
ways with Ifaster cars, quicker
get-aways more powerful brakes.
All these strains grind away ordi
nary treads too fast.
But now we've got the answerl A
tread that keeps its grip 43? longer
gives 43?2 more non-skid mile
age. Grueling, grinding road
tests show that it keeps its grip
twice as long as competitive tires!
Read that list of extras in this new
"G.3" All-Weather tire -and re
member, you have to have YNON-SKID "
before you can have "NON-SKID
