Puâ€" pils. Schumacher, April 1â€"(Special to The Advance) â€" Priday evening last was Theatre Night at the Schumacher High School, and the auditorium was filled to its utmost capacity for the cccasion. All present felt amply reâ€" warded by the able presentation of two plays by the students of the school, with the other items on the programme so well given and so interesting that the event looked like four times the value for the night. Drama, comedy, dancing and music featured the proâ€" gramme and there was not an item on the list that did not win and deservse the highest praiss. On the students of the school, on the staff, on the high school board, and on the people of Schumacher, the event reflected the highest of credit. The programme opened with an overture by the Schumacher High Schcol orchestra, setting a high stanâ€" dard for the balance of the programme. Next came the oneâ€"act comedy, ‘"Nellie McNabb," very cleverly presentâ€" ed. The characters in this play were: The Maid, Lottieâ€" Edna Battigelli. The Mother, Mrs. Stratford â€" Jean Urquhart. Younger Daughter, Daphneâ€"Patricia Barker. Elder Daughter, Ursulaâ€"Jean Barr. Rolly Martinâ€"Edward Brooker,. John Applefordâ€"William Welt. The scene is in the drawing room of the Stratford _ home. Preparations were being made for Ursula‘s wedding to a man of her mother‘s choice but not of hers. At the same time Mrs. Stratford is making plans for a big social event for the debut of Daphne. The latter is in love with Rolly Marâ€" tin, â€"hardworking and ambitious, bu*t not wealthy. Daphne dislikes social events and marries Rolly in a quaint church at the top of a hill on impulse while the couple are out for a lovers‘ walk. The problem for the girls is to break the news about the wedding kept secret and the big social wedding that Ursula does not want. The girls write to ‘"Nellie McNabb," who conducts a column for the lovelorn, for advice. John Appleford, a prominent writer, always held up by Mrs. Stratford as a THE CANADIAN BANK OF COMMERCE Jacket Heaters We carry a full stock of jacket heaters for all sizeâ€" range boilers.

Later in the evening the Girls‘ Choir gave "Nobody Knows the Trouble TI‘ve Seen," and A Health Unto His Majesty," their able presentation winning an enâ€" core, "Bonnie Mary of Argyle" being given as the responding number. The dance session by the girls of Grade X was a highlight of the evenâ€" ing. "Lazy Dan", a soft shoe dance, was very cleverly presented by Betty Keeley, Norma Tario, Kathleen Corris and Katherine Lafontaine. The girls, with faces and arms blackened and colourfully dressed, received lots of apâ€" plause. ‘"Sweet Peggy," an Irish jig, was effectively presented by Jessie Scullion, Lily McGowan, Ann Marie Miller and Eileen Soucie. Attractively dressed in Irish costumes of green and white they did their parts well and were enthusiastically encored. The High School orchestra, under the direction of Mr. Fred Roy, gave the selections, Minuet, "Military Symâ€" phony‘" (Haydn), and Mazurka, "Goldâ€" en Moments" (Zamecnuik). These numbers were well given and much appreciated . Louis Klisanich gave a clarinet solo, accompanied by Mr. Fred Roy at the piano, and this number made a special hit, the audience insisting on an enâ€" core. The concluding number on the proâ€" gramme was the drama, "Drums of Oude." The parts in this were taken as follows:â€" Capt. Hector McGregorâ€"Kirby Joyâ€" net Stewart (the sentry)â€"Dale McLeod. Hindustani servantsâ€"Norman Cripps, Jack Tomlinson. Sergt. McDougalâ€"Robt. Boyce. Lieut, Alan Hartleyâ€"John Flowers. Mtrs. Jack Claytonâ€"Isabel Flowers. The play is a powerful drama depictâ€" ing the native uprising against the British in 1857 in India, .It was preâ€" sented very capably, by, the talented cast. Another feature, of. the evening worthy of special noteâ€"was a . display of knitted articles made by the studâ€" ents of the school. This was in a booth in one of the corridors. .To date the girls have given 340 articles to the Red Cross Society. They have also a fag fund for the former pupils of the school who are now in the Canadian Armed Forces.
