Hospital Patients
To Present Play
Sunday, 2 P. M.
For the past two months
patients of the Milledgeville
State Hospital Activity The
rapy program have been pre
paring for their forthcoming
production of Gilbert and Sulli
van's "Patience.” The perform
ance will be held in the Hospi
tal Auditorium on Sunday,
October 6 at 2:00 P. M.
The three departments of the
Activity Therapy Program have
combined forces in the produc
tion, which promises to be one
of the largest ever to have been
presented by patients of the
Hospital. The Music Therapy
Department began rehearsals
early in August, while t e Oc
cupational Therapy Depart
ment has been working nearly
as long on costumes and make
up. The Recreation Therapy
Department is busy painting
scenery, gathering props and
planning the stage manage
ment.
“Patience” is a sprightly sa
tire on the aesthetic craze of
the 1880's presenting a “Flesh
ly Poet” and an “Idyllic Poet”,
Bunthorne and Grosvenor, sung
by Ronald Markette and Ro
bert Peters, who are rivals for
the affections of the milkmaid,
Patience, sung by Saralyn Ivey.
A train of languid ladies and
their former flames, a Colonel,
a Duke and a Major, with a re
giment of officers of the Dra- ■
goon Guards, complete the pic
ture. An orchestra, composed
principally of faculty and
students of the University of
Georgia Department of Music
will accompany the perform
ance. The opera will be con
ducted by Herbert P. Gold
smith, Director of Music The
rapy.
Dr. Irville H. MacKinnon,
Superintendent of the Hosptal,'
extends a cordial invitation to
all who would be interested in
attending this performance. |

Lower food prices offset high
er transportation and recrea
tion costs. The August index
was up by 1.5 percent from a
year ago, principally because
of higher price levels for food
and housing, although all ma
jor groups of goods and ser
vices contributed to th§ in
crease.
The net spendable earnings
of factory production workers
between July and August de
clined for the second succes
sive month. The drop in earn-
ings reflected a 2 cent cut in
average hourly earnings, re
sulting from seasonal declines
in employment in high-waga
industries and increases in
low-wage industries.
Three-fourths of the off
flavors in milk probably is
caused by feed. A sudden
change from winter feeding tn
lush pasture shows up at once
as a strong flavor in milk.
Make the change gradually.
