Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Last Half-Day in the District School: Comic Entertainment in Two Acts This play was first publicly presented at the McKinley School under the auspices of the Mother's Club, and so captivated the popular fancy that four additional performances were given. These were held by request in the larger Orpheum Theater - each time to an overflowing house. A description of the play was later given in a write-up of the work of this club which appeared in one of the national teacher's magazines. Since the publication of that article, calls for the play by schools and clubs in all parts of the country have been so numerous that the authors have decided to publish it in book form. This play possesses an advantage over other district-school plays because of its originality and adaptability. The several songs and recitations may be changed if others seem more desirable, while keeping the characters the same. The answers to many of the questions may be changed to local hits of the most humorous character. A great deal of the fun lies in this very fact. Likewise, the costumes and the stage setting may be adapted to meet the requirements of local traditions and circumstances. When played by people of wit and a sense of humor The Last Half-Day in the District School will, we believe, prove an unbounded success. It is particularly comical when presented by adults dressed as children. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
