The doror of the prize, Colonel P. L Downs of Temple, will be here, avd the speakers are making active prep- aration to speak their best.

Director Owens who is casting the play under the title of “The Importance of Being Earnest,” is jubilant in the fitting of his characters into the personnel of the play. The actors make an admit- able suggestion of individuals living under the circumstances depicted in the course of the action. Reserved seats will be on sale in the Y. M. C. A. today. E. O. Buck, one of the leading char- acters in the play, who is to depict | the life of a dashing young gallant of | London town with an exciting repu- tation, startling mannerisms and dar- | ing habits, has a vivacity which nat- | urally casts him for this form of stage action.
