Each summer this children's outdoor entertainment is presented by the National Kindergarten and Elementary college for the pleasure of north shore children and their friends. Miss Margaret Farrar of the college faculty, the author and producer of the play, announces that those in the cast will be members of the faculty and stu- dents of the college summer session. All who participated in last year's frolic, which was given at Craigie Lea, Glencoe, the home of Mrs. Andrew MacLeish, pronounced it not only beau- tiful but very jolly and are eagerly welcoming another such entertainment. Bluff Edge is just beyond the Win- netka Water Tower, and all who are motoring up Sheridan road or walking east on Tower road from the electric station are to look for the display of bright balloons tied to trees at the en- trance to the grounds. Ideal Setting Mrs. Douglas Smith so often offers the hospitality of her home and grounds that "Bluff Edge" is well known to Chicago and north shore folks. The setting for an outdoor stage and has sweep of lawn overlooking the lake and the wealth of foliage gives an ideal proved a great inspiration to Miss Far- rar in writing the play for this Frolic. The plot is arranged to bring audience and actors close to one another in a way that gives every one a sense of participation, making it all seem very real. The story is called, "Midsummer in Storyland," and is really a tale within a tale. It begins--"Once there was a little boy walking in the woods. He grew very tired and lay down on a log and went sound asleep." Fairyland Tale It is what Little Boy sees and does when he is awakened by the touch of the Fairy's wings that will carry the audience through the realm of story- land. Mother Goose and her children, Humpty Dumpty, Old King Cole and others, with Peter rabbit and Mr. Mc- Gregor, The Three Pigs, Goldy Locks and the Three Bears and many more from ancient and modern storylore will come to life under the touch of the Fairy's wand in the hands of Little Boy. As a grand finale all the children in the audience will join the Fairy Lady and her children, and Little Boy, when she invites them to follow her. "Up- hill and down dale, everyone come and no one fail," till at last all join in a jolly dance in Storyland, Storyland, Story- land--ILet us dance in Storyland, all to- gether." After the party the Storyland people will wave goodbye and go back to their books and Little Boy and his friends to their homes. The I. A. Jannev family of 657 Spruce street left the middle of the week for Diamond G. Ranch, Dubois, Wyo., where they will be until Labor Day. ---- Mr. and Mrs. Dayton Ogden of 1337 Asbury avenue returned yesterday from a three-days' boat trip to Mack- inac.
