The Players are the inner dramatic club circle, and all those who have taken active part in at least two plays are eligible for membership. The spring Players' play has become an annual affair. The play this year is to be "Sherwood" by Alfred Noyes, famous English poet. It is to be given some time in April. It is another story of Robin Hood and Maid Marian and Robin Hood's merry men. Members of the Glee club have also been chosen to take parts in the chorus.

Mrs. S. D. Flood, who has been in Europe for several months, is return- ing this week. Mrs. Flood is president of the Kenilworth Garden club which opens its season for this year early in April. "Grass," Children's Film at Field Museum Saturday "Grass," the epic moving picture of the life of the wandering tribes of Persia, recently a box-office success in theaters of Chicago and elsewhere, will be shown for children of Chicago and suburbs at Field Museum of Na- tural History Saturday, March 31. This free entertainment is to be given under the provisions of the James Nel- son and Anna Louise Raymond fund. The film depicts the semi-annual jour- ney, fraught with hardships, of the Bakhtiari tribe and their herds across the mountains in search of grass for pasture. Their lives depend upon the grass ,and they must follow the sea- sons in search of it. In winter the western side of the mountains provides an abundance; in summer the terrific heat there burns the grass up, and they must go over the mountains where it is cooler. Winter comes again, the eastern grass freezes and dies, and the nomads are forced back over the mountains for the ever needed grass. Human babies, as well as lambs, colts, kids of goats, and calves, must endure the heat of the desert and the cold of the mountain snows in these pilgrim- ages. The picture will be given in the James Simpson Theatre of the mu- seum, and will run continuously from 10 a. m. until noon. GARDEN CLUB TO MEET The Home and Garden club of Kenilworth met at the home of Mrs. Tom Dix on Oxford road on Monday, March 20, and will meet again on April 2, at the home of Mrs. Joseph White on Sheridan road. This coming meet- ing is hoped to be a guest day and the club is planning to have a speaker on "The Planting of Seeds." Mrs. Theo- dore Moritz is president of the Home and Garden club.
