The company replied that It would remove the outer shades and In this manner more light would be obtained, and on the other hand, cleaning of the globes would be un- a cessary.
.\     communication      from      Rev.
^.irles Krelder was read, relative to
•J obstruction In front of his house
West Center street.    In the com-
jnlcatlon he declared his rights . ii^ gave hlf views on the matter. The communication was placed in the hands ot the Law and Highway committee.

This evening in the Y. M. C. A. auditorium the Senior class of Naz¬ areth High School will present "Home Ties," a comedy drama In four acts. This play has been suc¬ cessfully produced in many other localities and always attracted a large audience. It portrays real home life and the social blunders. The umbrella mender, Josiah Tlz- zard and the widow, Mrs. Poplin, are always creating laughter. A cast of characters and brief outline of the play is: Martin   Winn,   with   memories   of
the  past    Frank  Steckel
Leonard Everett, a son of the soil
    Marlyn Rader
Harold Vincent, from New York. .
    George Weiss
Josiah TIzzard, an umbrella mend¬ er    Howard Gold
Ruth Winn,  Martin's daughter. . .
    Lea Unangst
Aunt  Melissa,  Martin's sister. . . .
    Esther Kleppinger
Alma Wayne, a friend ot Ruth's.
    Lorraine Gold
Mrs.   Poplin,  a widow,  with  pen¬ sions and sympathies	
    Beatrice Newhart
Llndy Jane, who helps around. . .
    Svea  Petterson
The action of the play takes place In the sitting-room of the Winn homestead, near a small village in the eastern part of New York state.
Act I—An afternoon in June, be¬ tween  5 and 6 o'clock.    The home¬
coming.
Act II—One month later. Visi¬ tors from the city.
Act III—An evening the next week.    The party. '
Act IV—The following January, six months having elapsed. The wedding announcement, and "Home Sweet Home."
The author did not omit the love romance which is usually expected. Neither did he forget the humorous element. The play Is a comedy. It Is not silly or funny which usually spoils a play. Mrs. Poplin does not have any financial trouble but she has other trouble which makes her humorous. Llndy Jane is a negress and of course everybody has their faults, so does Llndy. And then did you ever see an umbrella mender fall In love? They are rare, bf. we found one. Come and see him. The story is neither flippant nor imagina¬ tive. It's a true everyday story vvhich every adult likes to read op- hear. We are presenting it mainly for our parents and older friends and we want to see you there. Don't fail to be there.
The advance sale of tickets has been very encouraging. Tickets will be on sale at "Y" after 7 p. m. on Thursday. Doors open promptly at 7.30.
The play Is being staged and di¬ rected by U. S. Wirebach, English teacher. Music will be furnished by the Hellick orchestra.
