TO HOLD EIsTEDDFOD HEREI
Women of the Welsh Church of This
City plan Unique New Years
Day Entertain ment.

According to a time honored custom the
women of the Welsh church, Of this city,
corner of Seventh avenue and Olive street.

the afternoon and evening of Tuesday,

ing a Welsh Eisteddfod, on small scale.
will be held in the church proper. The
programme now being distributed Is of
much interest to natives of Wales and
their descendants.
The programme is simple and the prizes
insignificant but they. will give much
pleasure to many. The contests might
seem trffiing in some instances to those
who are not conversant with the Welsh
mind, customs and habits of thought or
who are familiar with the Welsh musical
and literary contests held at many cities
Of the United states where great .choirs
compete in the rendition of musical mas
terpieces, and the best artists known to
the Welsh nation vie with each other for
the glory attendant upon winning the
prizes.
The Eisteddfod has for centuries occu-
pied a distinct place in the evolution of
the Welsh people and their elevation to a
place in the world of thought. literature
and the arts. by the side of the cultured
and progressive peoples of this and other
lands. The annual contests have been the
only incentive In many instances for boys
and girls for men and women to perfect
themselves in what may seem to many
to be but the crude form of an education.
They have. accomplished much for the
advancement of race in the main Graded
