The program presented at the Elm press last evening was good enough that the missing number-the kellys who failed to make train connec- tions. was not subject for serious regret The Lombardi Duo and Jack Stewart pleased the musically inclin- ed and the picture program was a satisfactory entertainment in itself. The Kellys will be in evidence this evening with a strong comedy act and bit of clever song and dance. The increased attendance at the Empress indicates public approval of Manager Reeves efforts to please.
