As the public has made its decision in favor of a dramatic stock, Mr. El- liott has engaged Harry Minturn to direct a company of selected stars to open at the New Evanston theatre on the evening of December 27, with a complete change of production each and every week, giving a matinee, on Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday at 2:30 p.m., and every evening at 8:30 p.m. Mr. Minturn has just returned from New York after selecting his cast for the New Evanston theatre, as he knows from past experience just what the north shore public demands. The New Evanston theatre will be closed from December 19, to Decem- ber 26, to allow workmen to get every- thing in readiness for the opening on the evening of December 27. Mr. Minturn wishes to state that it is a great pleasure for him to return to Evanston as he has many dear friends there and looks forward to a very en- joyable season.

After luncheon they were entertain- ed by speeches given by Superinten- dent F. E. Clerk and Miss Elizabeth Packer on the subject of personnel work among the students. They then went to the adviser rooms where they saw the students in session and were told about the various projects. When this was finished there were more speeches, given by Mr. Brown and Mrs. Simmonson on the value of re- search work in relation to personnel work, and health records among the high school students. The meeting was a great success and the deans carried away a fine impres- sion of New Trier.
