But the "Old Guard" would not listen; while Hoover was still busy feeding the war waifs in Europe. (Incidentally, the late Frederick K. Copeland of Win- netka was then chairman of the Illi- nois Hoover Committee, in 1928. He headed the Engineers' Illinois Hoover Committee). By the election of November 6th, Hoover's abilities: and experience have been made available in the largest de- gree to us all. While his election is tremendously gratifying to the engineering profes- sion, which has known Hoover so well and so long, his choice is of broader significance to the country It is per- haps not too much to say that nc President-elect has ever possessed the variety of qualifications which he will bring to his new task. An engineer of wide training, he brings an able, scientific mind, already broadly under- standing the country's material prob- lems, and capable of guiding its prog- ress to new and firmer standards of prosperity. He brings an intense hu- man interest, capable of appreciating the needs and desires of all groups. He is an individualist, independent in thought, yet tolerant of the opinions of others; encouraging to the full the American genius for individual devel- opment and advancement. He will foster "Business in Government, and Statesmanship in Business." An or- ganizer of genius and experience, he brings the ability to instill loyalty and team play. He will attract men of honesty and real ability to work for him and for the country, inspiring them with his own ideals of doing the job well for its own sake. Because he is himself unselfish, he will raise pub- lic service to a new level. His personal knowledge of foreign affairs and of foreign men and gov- ernments in itself will link other na- tions more closely to us, and make for a more ready understanding of mu- tual problems and viewpoints. Hoover is a national asset. The country is to be congratulated on its wisdom in recognizing this, and in be- ing now. in a position to realize on this asset to the full. --"Engineer."

Drama Club's Play Pleases Audience; Critic Praises It By Critic The Community Drama club made its bow for 1928-29 to a large and kindly audience in Matz hall Wednes- day evening, presenting St. John Han- kins well-known play, "The Cassilis Engagement," a play with a theme perennially apt and vital. True to the purpose of the club, a number of new names appeared on the program. Mrs. Carl Johnson looked the meek rector's wife to perfection. Walter Johnson was equally good as the rector. Miss Julia Krenwinkel made a very aristocratic Countess of Remenham and properly admonished her roue brother, Major Warrington, alias Milton Higgins. As always, Mr. Higgins made a very subtle interpre- tation of his part and marked the third act as memorable. Opposing each other most cleverly were Mrs. Wallace Rumsey and Mrs. Thomas Ratcliffe, as the two mothers, Mrs. Cassilis and Mrs. Borridge. Each part was admirably interpreted, and both women were delightfully spon- taneous and satisfactory. Miss Vivian * Ratcliffe and Miss Frances Ellison made another clever contrast, and Miss Ellison carried her arduous part well. Moncure Paynter, as the leading man, expressed the character with great sincerity and restraint, One felt really sorry for the mistaken young fellow, so true and honest in his atti- tude to his mother, his fiancee, and his responsibilities. We are glad Mr. Paynter can play with us and for us. Mrs. Moon as Lady Marchmont was, as always, distinguished, and seemed properly to be served by a very stun- ning butler, Walter Kaempfer, and a charming maid, Miss Grace Smith. Mrs. Goble, as president of the club and director of the play, deserves, and has, the thanks of all the people who vear by year enjoy the fun. The back stage folk, too, performed marvels of clever and ingenious manip- ulation of properties secured by Mrs. Frank Plowman, 29 dresses secured by Mrs. Vernon Welsh for this one play, of lighting under Frank Plowman, in co-operation with the Porter Electric shop; of stage crew, under the skilled direction of Everett Fox, aided by Dr. Orvis and Albert Bechtelheimer; and the skilful make-up committee chair- man, Mrs, Lyman Weld, with Mrs. William C. Van Horne, Miss Mildred Julian, and John Jameson. Mrs. Charles Karnopp did manual labor un- der Mrs. Louis Sherman's supervision on the stage set, and Mrs. Plowman, Mrs, Chester Masters, and Mrs. Cole- man Ross cajoled their friends into loaning most attractive furnishihgs. To one and all, the community and especially the Community Drama club, express appreciation, as well as to Miss Margaret Lippert, Mrs. Fred Mason, and little Peggy Hutchinson for the posters for the bulletin boards, and the publicity arranged for week after week by Mrs. Lawrence Norem. So to all, helpers and audience, the Community Drama club says, "Let's all play."
