ONE OF THE MOST BEAUTIFUL PLAYS EVER GIVEN
HERE
COURSE I. WINS COMMENDATION BY PRESENTATION
One is never too old to enjoy fairy
stories, and Sleeping Beauty presented
on Friday night, May 10, gave the
audience a delightful glimpse into fairyland.
The curtain opened lm a woodland
scene, where later the fairies and Ucs
gathered from their woodland haunts.
The queen of the fairies had just joined
her subject! when a message, announcing
the christening of the little daughter of
the king and queen, was delivered. The
fairies at once decide to lie present.
The next scene was that of the christening of the baby. How the good
fairies turned the wish of the wicked
witch of death to the Princess to a
hundred years' sleep was skillfully portrayed.
In the third scene, the princess, now
a young maiden, finds her way to the
attic of the palace. She sees an old
woman spiiinniim. and alter watching her
a while decides to try to spin herself.
She pricks her finger with a spindle and
(alls into a sleep of a hundred years.
The last scene brought the Prince
Charming to the sleeping court to awake
the princess from her long sleep. And
as with all fairy -t' tie-, they lived happily ever after.
Mis- Margaret Murphy very ahly
directed the presentation of Sleeping
Beauty. Much credit for it success is
due to the participant- in the play, and
the costumes were very elaborate and
estive of a verdant atmosphere,

Shadow- exist because the sun shines; the pangs of separation are severe when
associations and companionships have been happiest. The past few years hold
for the graduates of 1924 many bright memories, some unique; the future has
in -tor*' new experiences which will tend to dim the old. One value of membership in local alumnae chapters is keeping these memories alive through social
and business gatherings. The songs and gay reminiscences of the Winchester
chapter evoked a spontaneous tribute to the Farmville spirit from an outsider.
To these chapter meeting! the members bring news they have collected about
other alumnae ami the College, and thus they keep in touch with their Alma
Mater. The chapters, through knowledge, will then be ready to cooperate ;,a unit, iii the large project! of the College, whether they function locally upon
the campus, as our Student Building, in which we have so much pride, or whether
they are part of State-wide movements, like the Alumni Council work inaugurated
last year for the advancement of education.
Participation as a body in affairs of community interest is another way in
which local chapters can prove their worth and the efficiency of their training
here The reaction will be attention and interest focused more directly upon
the College, and more high school graduates turned in this direction.
These are .nine of tin' ways in which alumnae can -till experience the joy
of loyal service to their Alma Mater They will doubtless find others. The
Association of Alumnae welcomes the classes of 1924 most cordially as worthy
recruits in this rapidly growing organisation.
