The program will consist of A Festival in Peiping, Temple of the Golden Mountain, and Legend of The Willow Plate. Special programs for children will also be held. The history of the Shadow play is a very interesting one. It was brought back to our country by Pauline B *on who then organized the Red Gate Players. In her travels across China and the Orient she discovered that the start of the shadow play was from the superstitions that periled the life of primitive man. Out of the struggle to survive, he developed a great regard for the shadows which he could not understand. They were mysterious. They moved and changed, appeared and disappeared. Gradually the superstitious fear of shadows passed and in place of this fear came an interest in using sha dows as a form of entertainment.

In all Eastern countries the peo ple usually prefer flat shadow fig ures to round marionettes. These figures are madeJrom the carefully prepared skins or a buffalo or goat. Now these “shadow actors'* are gay and colorful and extremely lively. They stand about 13 Inches high and who move, dance,* fight, weep, live and love within the con- r fines of the shadow screen. The beauty of performers is further en hanced by the use of ery elaborate scenery. Shadow figures of the Oriental countries differ widely. Those of China are as beautiful in pattern as those of Javanese but are much less grotesque. The Turkish shadow figures are less beautiful than the Chinese but are cleverly articulated. This new type show is highly recommended by the East-West Association and has been on the Central Methodist lecture series for the past two years.
