The new price for Grade A eggs for export, effective from Jan. 28 l0 Aug. 31 next. is 45 1-2 cents to the Charlottetown assembler; “to the Island producer, it is 3'! 1-2 cents. The spread of eight cents per dozen is to take care of the cost of cases and packing mater- ial. cost of stamping, stenciiling and Wiflrifl’. cost of grading and hLndiing. and the expenses involv- cd in heating. lighting, upkeep of grading stations, office overhead, financing. etc.

Little 11...... Presents Three. Fine Plays

, With well ovler four hundred members and guests in attendance, the Charlottetown Little Theatre Guild held their second Studio Night o1 the 1947-48 season at the Empire Theatre last night, feat- urinfl ihree one-act plays.

All three plays. which were very well casted and directed. provided much humor and drama to a large and appreciative audience which bmllilll out rounds of applause, laughter, and in some scenes a teardrop or two. Much credit is due to the various members of the casts who made a splendid job of portraying the characters they re- presented. and to those responsible for the directing and make-up of these characters.

Dur rig the intermission between the second and illird. plays. Mr. J.A. Lawson..mnna3ing director of the Guild. gave an address in which he outlined the present and future activities of the Guild and expressed his thanks to all those responsible for making the Studio Night such a successful one. Included in the guests present at last night/s performance were I-Is Honour Lieutenant Governor J.A. Bernard and Mrs. Bernard and Acting Premier Hon. Gil. Barbour and Mrs. Barbour.

The first play "Shadow o! a Dream)’, under the direction of Miss Iphigenie Arsenault, centred around State's Attorney Robert Owens (Earl Carmudyl, relentless prosecution of the brother of his chauffeur, Williams (George Ab- bott) qn more circumstantial evid- ence. Rowever. through a very clever ruse by his wife (Maureen White), it was proven to him the ease with which circumstantial -ev- ldchca could give an innocent man the appearance of guilt, Influenced by the result of this trick, the State's Attorney decided he would defend rather than prosecute Wil- liam's brother. The Owen's sym- pathetic housekeeper, Hattie, was playcd by Betty Kennedy; and the role of Estelle Durand. ulgrlnbling house proprietress. sorvng as l. witness in the case. was acted by -Miss Gertrude covlc. Miss Ethel Sutherland bandied the scrilii; Bill-l Arden McCorkc-lj and George An- drson the properties.

The second play “The ‘Iryblllfl! Place" under the direction °f M“! Hilda Jenkins. was skillfully woven around the romances of the wealthy Mrs. Briggs (Mrs. RE. Suther- land), her daughter Jessie (Inez Murray), and her son Launcelot (Carmen Thompsonl during their stay at a summer hotel. Bu?!" Smith. s poor but sincere suitor of Jessie. was played by Russell Kelly; and Mrs. Briggs former. and still persistent lover after many years of waiting. by Regin- ald MacLean. The role of Mrs. curiis. the widow to whom the guileless Launcelot Briggs poured out his heart in vain. was P01" trayed by Miss Florine Evans; and the Mysterious Voicc. winch be- longrd to Mrs. Curtis‘ admirer. and who spent the entire tlnle on stage behind an easy cluir await- ing a rendezvous with the widow, was enacted by Mr. Charles Mc- Quald. Script was handled by Mrs. Eldon Darrach, and properties by Barbara Picksrcl and Sydnry Jef- frey. '
