Beginning with the primitive dances, it traces the growth of the physical stage, changes in acting and tells the story of the writing of plays and where theatre as we know it today came into being.” Many anecdotes and sidelights make reading the volume easy and en tertaining, but it contains so much information that an entire year could be given to its study. The presentation of this first section of the most purposeful outline undertaken by this group in some years clearly indicates a busy year for club members. During the business meeting the forthcoming Red Feather drive was announced by the civic chair man, Mrs. A. J. Hughes. A change in the date for the next meeting was made.
