Parmley and Miss; Katharine Kester, December 15. [ The choral play will be produced! at 2:30 p. m. and 8:15 in the Civic auditorium. I Miss Kester wrote the play while Miss Parmley arranged the musi- j cal selections. It is being produced j by special arrangement with Sam¬ uel French, publisher, in New I York. Story of Shepherd “Gloria” is the story of a shep- , herd who stayed behind to tend a wounded lamb; of a frightened mother (Elizabeth) who fled from the wrath of Herod; and of a wise man who used his gifts to buy the safety of a baby, John the Baptist. To reward their loving sacrifice, they were shown the vision of the manager under the star, the Holy family and of the worshipers bear¬ ing gifts. “Gloria” is a beautiful and moving play with elaborate prologue pageantry and music, in¬ spired by the angel’s song, “Gloria in Excelsis Deo.” The scene is laid near Bethlehem. Because of the fine spirit of rev¬ erence which prevails, no applause is given during the presentation.
