Capacity houses greeted the mornmg and a f t e r n o o n performances of "Racketty Packetty House" at the National Kindergarten and Elementary college on Saturday, which was at tended by 1,500 or 1,600 children-and their mothers, fathers, aunt~, and uncles-from Glencoe and Htghland Park to Chicago. The play was unquestionably the most artistic and successful of the plays for children which have been given by the college, and added to the laurels of both the student players and the alumnae organizers. A hush of wonder greeted the appearance of the silvery winged fairy and her little green elves as the curtains swung back for the first time. and the stillness was unbroken until fairy and elves disappeared at the entrance of the little girl and her nurse. But when the nurse and little girl left the stage and the dolls came to Iif e the spell was broken and the halt echoed with delighted laughter and en thusiastic applause and now and then a word of advice from some child who knew the story and wanted to help set things · righL And as the ·play ended with the happy ·dance of the dolts the children would gladly have joined hands and danced with them for sheer joy if they could have been given the opportunity. The intermissions. which are apt to be trying times for children. were made interesting by ~~iss Willmina Townes. director of the Senior Kindergarten of the Children's school. who led the children in rhythms and simple games and gave them an opportunity for movement and change of. position. Between the morning and afternoon performances, luncheon was served in the rooms of the Children's school. which had been attractivelv decorated with spring flowers. The sale of candy and homemade cookies at the close of the performance also added to the children's enjoyment and to the proceeds, which will carry the alumnae welt over their annual budget pledge to the Co1leg. e R!.tiJd~ng fund.
