FIRE IN THEATER
(r-aunued tnjtn pg ou.
Fire of unknown origin late
Cottrell, the director, said no
one was in the theater at the
time the blaze wu discovered.
He added, however that one of
the players might have unwit
tingly laid a costume over one
of the lights and short-clrcuitfcd
the wire.
Lois M. Bowmer, art director,
was making a check of the re
maining attire this morning. She
said that practically all of the
costumes for male players wen-
burned. Smoke damage was
heavy on a large portion of the
women's attire but rhe believed
these could be sufficiently re
paired for use tonight.
Stage curtains and props were
not damaged. Lighting equip
ment was also unhurt. Makeup
kits, usually stored in the men's
dressing room, were undunv
aged.
No insurance was carried.
Show Will Co On.
Stunned by the unfortunate
accident, production heads nev
ertheless prepared to adhere to
the unwritten adage of the tliea
ter, iind said that the schedule
would be continued. Tonight's
showing of "Much Ado About
Nothing" will be started at 8:30
o'clock although costumes for
the performance will be vastly
different than those used in the
original showing.
Production heads were solicit
ing uniforms and other regalia
among patriotic and fraterna'
organizations.
The play itself has a military
background so the difficulties
in this respect ar not consid
ered too great. Costumes for
Friday and Saturday nights
plays, however, present a more
serious problem.
Reservations for tonight'
play are practically sold out.

T3 AKED Eggs in Toast Rings ara
a pleasant variation of Amer
ica's favorite breakfast, bacon and
eggs. Easy to make, they consist
of eggs dropped into bread-cups
and baked in muffin pans.
Cut rounds of bread with a scal
loped or plain round cookie cutter.
Remove the center portions of half
of the rounds, so that cup-like
containers to hold the eggs may
be formed. A small biscuit cutter
is good for removing the centers
neatly.
Bread rounds may be cut and
buttered the night before, so that
in the morning only a second is
needed for breaking the eggs into
the pans, adding milk, and putting
the muffin pans into the oven.
Baka the eggs while the coffee
brews and the bacon cooks.
Wholesome, energy-yielding,
Baked Eggs in Toast Rings are a
treat for children at lunch time,
and they add a festive note to a
simple supper.
