LECTURE ON Passion Pray at Mas- 
NOLIA CHURCH. 
The Village church was filled to 
capacity last Sunday evening when 
Fraulein Marie Mayer of Oberam- 
mergau gave her memorable talk on 
her home and on the Passion Play, in 
which she has taken part three times, 
the last time as Mary Magdalene, At 
the outset she spoke of the happy, 
carefree life in the little mountain 
village and of the disappointment she 
felt in giving it up when she was sent 
away to a convent school. During 
her two years at school, however, she 
met so-many delightful persons .who 
became her lifelong friends that she 
found the. experience both pleasant 
and profitable. Such was the case, 
too, when she. was. later sent to Eng- 
land. 
Thirty years ago Fraulein Mayer's 
mother had ambitions to take the part 
and although 
this was denied her, thirty years later 
her daughter took that part in the 
Passion Play of 1910. 
Fraulein . -Mayer told her own 
interesting . experiences in studying 
and preparing herself for this im- 
portant part. It was in England that 
she studied dramatic art. which has 
helped to fit her. In addition to his- 
trionic ability, a fine, high character 
is demanded by the. committee at 
R.E. Henderson ~ 
Oberammergau that chooses the cast 
for the play. It is considered a great 
honor to take part and the speaker 
told much that was interesting about 
the lives of such men as Andrew 
Lang (who took the character of 
Christus) when they are preparing 
for the performance. The part de- 
mands exceptional physical as well .is 
mental strength. 
After talking for about half an 
hour, the speaker continued her lec- 
ture with stereopticon views of the 
Passion Play. When she was asked 
what effect the war might have upon 
the continuance of. this custom she 
said that the vow had been kent 
through other wars, famines and

Fraulein Mayer told 
a little about her very recent trip to — 
the Pacific coast and about her en- 
joyment of the American people. | 
Her address was thoroughly appre- — 
ciated by the Magnolia people and —
