"Candida," a mystery play by the famous English writer, George Ber- nand Shaw, was presented at Con- Thursday evening by talented faculty players who delighted a large and select audience. The title role was taken by Mrs. R. R. MacGregor. She drew repeated applause by the clever manner in which she perform- ed a most difficult part. The wife of clergyman, Rov, James Mavor Morell, she finds herself the object of in- fatuation of a dreaming youl, Eugene Marrhbanks, a poet, who Is a.constant visitor at the rectory, and | while she has a strong liking for him George VanHorne' s | does not return his love, The youth- fu! ardor of the poet requires she {must subtle diplomacy and she suc- ceeds in\convincing 'him of wisdom of dismissing his obsession. His in- |timacy does not increase his respect {or admiration of the minister whose | complacency irritates his poetic spirit, The play is a satire on the conven~ tional clergyman in England scene off the events dealt with.

North Adams, Mass., March 2 In this winter of heavy snows in New England the country doctor has been | {subjected to unusual hardships, With [hill roads blocked by drifts for days, and sometimes weeks at a time, he has had to resort to many expedients | {to reach patients in isolated farm- | houses. The use of snowshoes has |been common, and one physician had | |Luilt a special ski-runner equipment {for his motor car. One of the outstanding feats of persoverance in the fact of difficul- ty and danger was that of Dr. John H. Riley, the oldest physician in this city, The January snowfall in North Adams was 39 inches, and in the out- lying towns 'among -the Berkshire mountains the wind swept the snow into huge drifts, Early one even- ing when the blizzard was raging Dr. Riley was notified that a little girl was apparently dying from pneu- monia in a farmhouse on the side of Florida Mountain. A boy who had managed to work his way down over the half broken out roads in an auto- mobile brought the word, Dr. Riley immediately started out with the boy in the car. A high wind was blowing and when they reached an exposed point on the main highway, the smow had drifted so badly that the car stalled. The physician, wearing a heavy fur over- started on foot up the mountain to- ward the tarmnouse, several miles distant. On his way he met two men walking down, They urged him to turn back, declaring that he could not get through the storm glive, He refused. tall Never Despaired. After he had gone some distance the boy, who had succeeded in get- ting the car started again, overtook him, They "x ware able to drive to a schoolhouse a mile and a half from the farm, where the girl was lying i}l. 'There they ran into drifts that stopped all further progress. The highway to the farmhouse from this roint was hidden under-snow many feet deep and Dr. Riley, . familiar with the region, struck into a wood road, where the forest provided some protection from the gale. Plodding along slowly he sudden- ly found he had missed the trail, and was brought up agaihst a barbed wire fence, He followed the line of the fence for some distance, bu! could not again locate the wood road, He was almost exhausted and was on the point of discarding his overcoat to lighten his burden, when he saw the light of a swing lantern. we shouted, but the sound of his voice was drowned by the wind. He stum- _|bled toward the light and finahy came up with the bearer of the lan- tern, 'a young woman of the sick child's family. She had ventured out in the hope of meeting him. After Dr. Riley had done all he could for the sick girl he borrowed dry clothies, walked down the trail to the schoolhouse, and came back to North Adams with the boy in the He had been at home but a few minutes when another call came for him.
