¿A Talented Springfieldian


3.ARM to accustomed.to reading and hearing about interesting people in other elties that it seldom occurs to its that there are people just as interesting and doing just as much. right here in Springfield. . Mr. Joseph I'. Peek, for many years resident of Spring. Meld and øtil! a comparatively young man, has distingulahed himself As producer. artist afd designer. Mr. Peek was the first and only Than to introduce the Nttle theatre movement In Springfield. Thle he did very successfully. "He not only directed the Little theatre but designed the stage sets, trained the actors, designed the costumes and seted as business manager. Mr. Pook selected the players from among Springfield talent and with their cooperation and his own efforts achieved very remarkable results. The Little theatre. however. is not the only noteworthy achievement of Mr. Peck an he is well kaowo as a costume designer baving designed for such notable pro- . ducers as Ziegfeld and the Messrs. Shubert, and lu addition to this be designs. and makes somo of the most beautiful and unique masks `Imaginable after the fashion of those originated by the famons artist, W. T. Benda


Mr. Peek, who is always in search of the newest in urt, has now directed his attention toward the making of marionetten which are last becoming popular, all over the country, as a medium of enter- tainment. Ho-has already made some very clever puppets and with these and others in the process of construction. he will produce a complete marionette show which he plans to present in Springfield. preparatory to an extended tour of the country. Mr. Teek's studio In the southwest arcade of the square is the most interesting spot In Springfield. The walls, bung with gay shawls. marks, costumes. and pictures, give mute testimony of his many and varied talents.
