Among the items that the course will deal with include discussions on home planning and living, se lecting foods and clothing, the study of the improvement of per sonality, and how to feel socially at ease. Classes, according to Miss Jen kins, will be held three times a week next quarter, and she ex pressed hope that the course will be given during the spring quarter. The study of etiquette both in everyday life and at social func tions will be part of the course which will have as its purpose and chief goal the perfecting and en riching the lives of boys and young men.

The three leading male charact ers, played by Jack Huckaby, J. G. Robertson, and O. N. Todd, featur ed three utterly different types of lovers.

Todd’s portrayal of Paul, a newly wed, completed the strange triangle of lovers, his type of love parallel ing that of 1936.

Bored were all the guests of the Duchess de Deville, played by Flor ie Watson except those lovers who provided themselves with oppor tunities, to make it modern, “to get out and have a good time while the old foggies were on the inside reading poetry and discussing phil osophy.” Mrs. L. E. Roberts, director of “The Art of Being Bored”, did an excellent piece of work. With the much needed assistance of many of the members of the cast, the austere editor of the paper did a most excellent job of pulling the curtain.
