The final play, "Ghostly Lovers," by Beulah Kling, was, as the title indicates, concerned with tha activities of ghosts, the ghosts being impersonated by Caswell, played by Harry Robinson, and Judith Rand, played by Ro- mayne Fitzgerald. These two ar-J nun auu uauxu-ci, reauecuveiy by Mary Sponseller and Dorothy Cressler, induce the ghost impersonations, each with the idea of frightening the other. The trick works so well that both are frightened; boy and girl, who already intended to marry, discover each other in the ghost costumes and decide that through their ghostly conversations they have solved difficulties which stood in the way of their happiness.

Dorothy takes the role of a maid. Music between plays was by the school orchestra, with a trumpet duet by Harold Green and Carl Brindle, and a roller skating spe cialty by Gertrude Sherman Gilmore Ott was stage manager.

Bings Around Moon Myths Rings around the. moon are sometimes used to "forecast" the weather, but only by the superstitious or uninformed. As a matter of fact, these rings 6imply indicate that in some region of the air above the ground there is a thin layer of mist or cloud, the water drops of which are nearly of equal size, says the Richmond Times-Dispatch. Both water droplets and ice crystals are common to the upper air and art unreliable as weather indicators.
