Xenia, Mary's friend - Maria Terefenko. Ivan Catchur, Mary's boyfriend - Michael Krupa. Gregory Churvak - Michael Lesko. Paraska, his wife - Helen Govdish. Joseph, their son - P Greetsov.

All the actors played their rolls well, clearly, all the players studied their rolls thoroughly as their entire audience gave them long rounds of applause.
At the beginning of the evening, words of welcome were said by Father Archdeacon Illiya Barna.
After the performance, Father T. Berki, our guest who came from Newark especially for this event, said words of thanks.
The audience exceeded 200 people. The following guests came to this performance of ours: Father Basil Pavlov from Cotsville along with his committee and parishioners, Father T. Berki from Newark, Father Andrew Slepinski from St. Claire, (unknown title) Ivan Obletlov, deacon-teacher(?) from St. Claire along with choir. The St. Claire choir very professionally performed a few secular and spiritual songs.
All the revenue from the performance will go to the parish in its entirety.
Thanks to you, amateur players for your work, thanks to you spiritual Father that you came to us, thanks also to you (unknown title) Ivan Obletlov and your choir-members who entertained us with their songs.

"After my daughter had a serious operation, she just didn't fully regain her health," wrote Mrs. Claudius Peletier from Lewiston, Maryland. "She was so weakened that she was not in a condition to do much of anything, and she was troubled by uneasy sleep. After the first bottle of Farney Alpkra she regained sufficient strength that she could take care of the household and after a few months she had gained 20 pounds and was once again in a condition to work." This wonderful herbal remedy strengthens the functions of the stomach, improves the processes of digestion and helps in the formation of a good appetite.
