Oscar Wilde’s “The Importance of Being Earn­ est,” . „ •. * ■■*■- ’ 9: ■ ; #■■' The scene of the play is laid in London, Not unlike the. dramas of our present day, it deals with the lives o fthe aristocratic youth! The story presents, two young men, friends, both of whhom pre­ sume tp have a friend, or brother. Under this guise they are enabled to leave home without causing any' suspicions. Algernon Alan- crieff assumes to play the role of the brother of John Worthing. When John returns home lament­ ing the loss 6f his brother, he is surprised Jo find that Algy has come to his home for the sole pur pose of making the acquaintance of Cecily Cardue. A mystery, as to the names of the two young men and also concerning the pa­ rentage of one o ftheni runs thru- out the play, being unsolved at the climax. The play was well presented ,and. was well received by an appreciative audience. Those taking the leading parts were Laurence Tiffany, Robert Turnbull, Dorothy Wilson, and Elsie Long. Great interest was shown, when the odd yet interest­ ing Atiss Prism, as interpreted by Ruth McPherson, appeared! _Be­ sides the players, much credit is due to the coach, Miss Florence Somers, to her assistant, Miss Sarah Porter, rind t to all others, who assisted iri making tne play a success. • i;siwijjjiW*'rtifOii1*1 ii>iiaiMrtWNilwW>WiwifeHim*SS^ m 2 2 3 S Dr.MORSE’S INMAN ROOT PILLS f|ttVET«rtlk»Mr XMptfc««f*biaactiT*.

DIVORCE The greatest evil" that faces the sftcJal world •today la the divorce evil, I t is perfectly clear that the Bible does not permit of divorce and re­ marriage on any ground except one, and that whosoever putteth away his wife, saving for the cause of for­ nication, inaketh’her an adulteress, and if he marries another Fe him­ self commits adultery'. This much is plain us day, nanjeljr, that there is only oiie Scriptural ground for divorce and remarriage—impurity on the part of the other parly. But; what are you going to do when divorce has really become a pastime? Sonie are treating it as but a passing experience. Social lines are being broken, moral stand­ ards are being shattered, children are being cursed, homes are beine broken up, and men and, women are losing all sense of regard for the, sucrednoss. of the marriage vow. Of course, where one party is guilty, the imiocent party has a perfect right to re-marry, and the innocent party ought to get a di-. vorce. But, there are too many peo. pie deliberately committing the of­ fense in order that they may secure • the divorce. They are deliberately creating the cause for the purpose of being separated. ‘Nearly sixty per cent of the di­ vorces of today have been brought about by the parties premeditatedly crcaiiug the cause for the divorce^ Why don’t the Christian forces of fhe country speak and suppress ■ t..io evil?
