Members of the cast and their director, Miss Stevens, have been working hard at rehearsals and hope to present a finished production for the entertainment of their many friends. The play, "It's Dad Who Pays," which will open at 8:15 p. m., Friday evening, is the wholesome story of an average American family of the present time with three acts of comedy and trials of the family^ The Denny family, consisting of mother, father, son and daughter are enjoying a summer holiday when father spoils the spirit of fun by his drastic orders to stop all contest work and talk. x The plot is a new one for treatment in a play, but is full of familiar situa< tions and characters, who seem to belong to everyday life. Family difficulties and strange mix-ups are worked out in clever comedy and you will laugh over the natural routine of characters who might be local residents, so fsmilisr are their escapades. Members of the Senior claas i ivite you to attend their class play Friday evening. . f: LOOAL PEOPLE IN AUTO AOOIDKNT AT TERRA OOTTA HILL MRS. A. H.
