TUESDAY EVENING, fcARRISBURG'®®® TELEGRAPH NOVEMBER 18, 1919. even though at times it had a ten dency to drug u bit. There seemed too. to be sofnetlilng indefinable which was lacking. The play hinged on the theme which has provided a great deal of amusement —that of being overwhelmed by a uniform only to find that when the wearer changes to civilian clothes, former conceptions were rudely shattered. Brlerly the story concerns a young woman of one of the best Southern families, who, while serving us a welfare worker on the front, met a captain, the first man who could command her and muKe her do what she did not will to do. This was in her case to be sent from the danger zone, and sent to the rear. The incident served as an acquaintance maker which in turn led to their be ing married. The captain was sup posed to have been killed in action, but one fine day he turns up, loud ly dressed, uncouth in manner, and more than ever determined to pre serve his life's happiness by the re buffs of his wife. This he ac complishes by taking a place in her home as a butler and at. the same time educates his wife in democracy. Of cource the officer is discovered, and the play ends with his getting a real position in his profession, and of course, too, his wife sees her own snobbishness, and comes back to him, even though she had started an elopement with another man. The situations were most amusing, and the company provided I • imade the most of them. Masked under I its fun, there Is a great deal of good i common sense In the play, and it I is not without its teachings will re l ference to the class distinction. ' Civilian Clothes" is a clever play, well acted, which pleused the house last evening. MAX ROBERTSON.

The boys of Edison feel that the brush with Mechanicsburg next Sat urday will only be an incident in their endeavor to land the junior cham pionship title for the city. This will not prevent them from putting forth every effort to show the Mechanics burg boys an interesting time in next Saturday's event. Coach Miller put the boys through a light practice last evening, and T°h U . n 2 t^ at . they were 'n sood form. The hardest practice of the week will nil. next Wednesday afternoon. The management of athletics took steps toward organizing a basketball season at Edison. Managers and as sistant managers will be elected for both the boys' and the girls' teams sometime this week. Cheer leaders will also be elected some day soon. These two elections will interest the students very much. Orders for out fits for the boys' basketball team were placed yesterday. No time will be lost after the close of the football season, but basketball will immedi ately become the center of athletic interest at Edison. The first lunch was served in the cafeteria yesterday noon. Only sand wiches, cocoa and ice cream were served yesterday, but as soon as the lunch room is organized, soups and substant ial varieties of food will be served.
