ART CLUBS ARE TRUMPS
A Play in One Act
By Mary Moncure Parker
Twelve females. Costumes of 1890 with one exception; scene, a single easy interior. Plays thirty minutes. Describes the trials of an ambitious woman who desired to form a club in the early days of club life for women about thirty years ago, before the days of telephones and automobiles. A capital play for ladies’ clubs or for older women in general. The costumes are quaint and the picture of life in the year of the Chicago World’s Fair offers an amusing contrast to the present. Recommended.

HAMILTON
A Play in Four Acts
By Mary P. Hamlin and George Arliss
Eleven males, five females. Costumes of the period; scenery, three interiors. Plays a full evening. Royalty for amateur performance where an admission is charged, $25.00 for each performance. Special royalty of $10.00 for performance by schools. This play, well known through the performances of Mr. George Arliss still continuing in the principal theatres, presents the builders of the foundations of the American Republic as real people, and its story adroitly illustrates not merely the various ability of its leading figure, Alexander Hamilton, but the unconquerable courage and determination that were his dominating characteristics. The vividness with which it vitalizes the history of its period and the power with which it emphasizes Hamilton’s most admirable and desirable quality, make it most suitable for school use, for which special terms have been arranged, as above. Strongly recommended.
