derful news they have been treasuring in their hearts. Finally, after cast-
ing disbelief aside and are ready to start onward, they are met by
Herod's messenger, who imperatively bids them appear before his
powerful sire.

Arrogantly and almost fearfully, Herod questions the three kings as to
their mission. Hearing that these men are convinced that the birth of
this babe is the birth of a king who will rule over the whole world, Herod
commands them to be thrown into prison. Terror and disbelief are
written on his face when still further proof of the news is given by his
scribes, who say it is the writings of the prophets.

The final scene is the Holy Family tableau, made beautiful with the humble
adoration of the wise men and the tenderness of the virgin.

The curtain slowly falls as the Angel Gabriel bids the wise men go abroad
and tell the whole world of the glorious news.

The play is to take place in the attic of the school, and there, the lofty
rafters and chapel windows, combined with the skill of the electrician,
will provide a fitting setting for the graceful simplicity of the play.

The play is being directed by Marion Erb and Margaret Carter, and is
under the supervision of the director, Mr. Scott. Ed. Hughes is proving
himself to be a very capable costume designer, and Don Allan finds his
forte is being property man.
