"Ruth in a Rush", the Senior play, the write-up of which has been held up to appear withthe class picture was one or the best local produc tion's to be given in Liberal. ' . j The play was a farce comedy, and I the parts were well-cast, throughout. I Ruth Fields as "Ruth -Moore" ! Always in a Rush had a very dif-1 ficult part, but one for which she wasj 4 specially well qualified, and she handled it like a professorial. Her, secretary, Juliet Raymond, played by Wilda Naylor, was all that 'the au thor could have wished. Both young ladies were splendidly gowned, and were most charming. Gilbert Lansing, a writer was well done by Vernon Engel, and as usual with Vernon he acquitted himself with great credit. His chum, Phillip Grant, a millionaire, known locally as Edgar Bush, could hardly have been better played. Edgar is an other of the L. H. S. boys who al ways make good, and this was no exception. Chester Boles withthe part of Dwight Lambert, and Roma Browne as' Peggy Patton, the eloping sweet hearts, we're a scream. While Roma and Chester are not so well-known on the stage as some of the other participants, they convinced the au dience that they had plenty ability in that line, and certainly did well. Laura' Barrier as Sadie Sodastrom, the station agent, covered herself with glory in the clever acting of her 3 - . purl,. . Velma Bond as Ruth's aunt, Mrs. Brownell, carried her part perfectly, with the ease and grace of one ac customedto the stage, while Blanche Joaes, as Mrs. Foster, Ruth's sis ter, could not have been improved upon,, Susie, the maid, was .played by Lucy Bawbee in a very clever man ner: ' Lucy looked and acted her part superbly. Paul Barrier as Leonard. Bruce, looking for a fortune, had a good comedy role, and he made a hit with the audience, while Alva Cain as Wayne Ashley, a man of means, was up to his usual standard of ability. "Just Like a Gypsy," a specially by five young ladies in gypsy cos tume, was given by Freda Ideker, Leta Nickel, Estella Heath, Francis Morrow and Ha - Hill. They were charming in their dainty costumes, and gave a most pleasing number. "Plantation Echoes," another de lightful specialty, was given by Har riet Boles, Ruth Cure, Willard Harn den, Clifford Leete, Leo Ackers and Alva Cain. All were in "coon" cos tume, and tn?y brought 'down the house with their songs and clever acting. The two little Helsby child ren as the picannies, were a pleasing part of this number. Miss Fern Ellsaesser presided at the piano, and the musical numbers were directed by Miss Dorothy Ed She is Glad Now that Her Laundress Failed Her Last week Mrs. Brown was in despair; For the third time her laun dress had failed her.
