Hand Class of Simcoe street United church presented a two act comedy "A Per- plexing Situation."

The plot of the play tells how Jes- sie, Sue, Lucy and their Mother, long for something new to wear at a wed- ding down the street. Mr. Middle- ton is very close and while he and Tom are endeavoring to discuss fin- ances and while the women are talk- ng his offer, a bet of $50 that the four women can't keep from talking for a whole day, is raised to $75. Here is just where the fun begins and how the women put it over him who is so close, is most Amusing. Circumstances which arise out of forced "dumbness," the arrival of Un- cle Ep. from "up Tetusyille, you know," his surprise at them being dumb and the arrival of Mrs. Nosie who knows there is something "mys- terious" going on; the mnusunder- standing when the lovers 'aet and so on are just a few of the hundred and one laughs that are produced. As usally Is the case, the lovers maid and butler also decided to "bes come as one, until death do them "The following is the cist: rs. Middleton ......
