J 795-797-799 Elm Street | Telephone | Winnetka 930 | A Good Ending BY CRITIC Another success is added to the list of the Community Players. "Tillie of Bloomsbury" had a freedom of action, an ease of movement, most creditable to the director, Mrs. John Marshall, and to the actors. With a cast of thir- teen, a few of them wholly new, with exceptional difficulties in the way of getting any chance to use the stage or try out effects, a fine result was due to the untiring patience of Mr. Marshall, Mrs. Feagans, and Mrs. Freeman. With such a stage crew as David Lasier, Robert Ely, Burton Atwood, Jr.,, A. B. Long, and Magnus Martin, the effect, once decided on, was sure of fulfillment. Any extra pre- paration needed was efficiently given by John Ritchie, Frank Bailey, Don- ald Cameron, and Robert Pearse. Another definite reason for the suc- cess of the play, was the presence of such well know and delightful actors as Mrs. Louis Sherman, Mrs. Charles Moon, Henry Cary-Curr, Ralph Var- ney, and Lyman Weld, who amply justified their reputations, and kept the audience in merry mood, which Arthur Bonnet, Mr. Naylor, and Miss Shaw aided and abetted. Miss Elli- son, remembered for her good work in New Trier High school, was a wel- come Sylvia, and George Bartlett, the butler, a newcomer to Winnetka, will be wanted again next year. Janet Marshall gives promise of be- ing a worthy successor to her mother, while Mrs. Carrie Prouty filled her small part acceptably. Mrs. John Ritchie, Tillie of Bloomsbury, did an outstanding piece of work. The nat- uralness, and convincing sincerity of her interpretation, made it a delight from first to last, and we hope she may be induced to do more work with the Drama club. Mr. Carpenter, her vis-a-vis, was most satisfactory, a very welcome addition to the growing number of talented amateurs whom the Community Drama club is dis- covering. Increasing skill in the "make-up" committee, Mrs. Carleton Washburne, Mrs. Charles Simpson, Mrs. Weld, and Miss Mitchell, was evident, and the costumes, in care of Mrs. Merritt Lum, were well-chosen and effective. Altogether, the Drama club may well claim a good ending to a good vear, and very justly appeal for furth- er support and co-operation from the people who enjoy drama, and enjoy and appreciate the value of the Com- munity Spirit. Plans are already under way for next season. Mr. and Mrs. R. Clair Taft, 900 Central avenue, will entertain their dinner-bridge club next Monday eve- ning. Who | This Man Re
