MISS BLAIR'S RENAISSANCE

Idler Club of Radcliffe to Present Three Act Comedy in Agassiz Hall.

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

"Miss Blair's Renaissance," a three-act comedy by W. Fenimore Merrill uC., of Chicago, III., the winner of the MacDowell Resident Fellowship in Dramatic Composition, will be given by the Idler Club of Radcliffe, in Agassiz Hall at 8 o'clock. Tickets at 50 cents, 75 cents and one dollar may be obtained at the door.

The plot opens with Patricia Blair, long accustomed to wealth and extravagance, suddenly finding herself at the end of her income with nothing in the future but shame and ruin. Her old friend, Arthur Corey, comes to call just as the creditors are about to make their descent on her and seeing no other way out of the matter, since he himself is without wealth, reluctantly advises her to marry young Davis Mills for his money.

In the second act, Patricia discovers that Grace Collinge loves Davis Mills. Repenting her efforts to ensnare the youth, she announces to her friends the depths to which she has stooped and the financial crash which is impending.

In the third act she sends Davis back to Grace and, selling her sapphires to pay her debts, chooses from among the many pleasant paths open to her, the one that leads to a little California orange farm and the love of Arthur Corey.
