CELEBRATIONS
 OF CHRISTMAS
Every Primary School ill Phoenix Marks Season With Appropriate Exer- ciscs After Many Weeks of Preparation

Every primary school in Phoenix and the vicinity celebrated the ap- proach of the holidays and most cs ptciallY the Christmas day yesterday utth fitting and appropriate pro- grams These programs included readings. rccitations. and songs, both Individual and in classes. and were made long enough to allow d gen cIal good time during the entertain ment. In some cases. santa Claus added to the fun of the hours, and even Christmas trees decorated with tinscls and candles and bearing on their branches gifts made by the hands of the children. This latter was especially true of the kindergar- tens where the age of the children was conducive to just sucn d pro- gram.
 The teachers of the classes and the grades sighed with joy as the pro- grams were finished and as the last of the visitors and children left the rooms. They had worked on the pI oductions for the past month. They had drilled and taught, they had coached and hammered at their pu pills in valiant attempts to make the programs entertaining and represen- tatiVe. Their whole time had been given to the selection of the pieces and songs, and their thought had de- vised many ideas for better teaching and gaining better results.
 And the programs were all sue cessful They were filled with life and interest. They showed the work of the children. and more, the work of the teachers. They filled the ear of the parents with pride. and the hearts of the children with joy. The pieces" and the songs were gotten off by the novices of the grades in manner amusing and excellent. and the rounds of applause paid the workers in the cause, for the time and the energy they had expended. There will be another Christmas in another year. and the children of the schools will plan for that time from today on. But there will never be anothcr Christmas like this one.

F. II. Sothern and Julia Marlowe, than whom no more popular players can be named today in the American theatre, will be the attraction at the Elks on January 1st and End. To this announcement might be added the fact that these fine artists will be granted their usual hearty welcome, for it would seem as if the playgoing public had accepted them as their ideal Shakespearean interpreters. in asmuch as they crowd the theatre wherever they appear. It matters not what play is presented, the result is the same The question sometimes arises: Is il Shakespeare that at tracts, or is it MT. SOthern and Miss MarloWe. or is it the happy combina- tiOn of Shakespeare with Mir. SOth- crn and Miss MarIoWe as his interpre ters? Undoubtedly it is the cOmbina ton that makes for this remarkable popularity. Tn any case the players are supreme in their field. and their honors have been well earned. No theatrical enterprise in this country at the present time equals theirs in worth and magnitude.

Empress.

Lulu. the most abused and thorough ly detested young lady in Phoenix. will make her debut tonight at the Empress theater. All unWittingly. she has caused more trouble in the city than any other person in it's history. and just because her coming was heralded.
 Lulu, is strictly speaking, not per son except IS she appears in a very clever little comedy which is to be off cred by the Louis B. Jacobs company.
 This comedy has gained considerable fame for it's authors and is said to be by far the best offered yet it certainly is the best advertised tabloid comedy ever offered. It tells of a novel manner in which a perfectly innocent young man is cOnspired against by a couple of schemers to gain his fortune and enlist the aid of a charming beauty who falls in love with the young man and protects him. So much for the plot. The comedy is fast and furious and of the side splitting variety which defies any attempt at explanation. The entire strength of the company will be utilized and several moved musical feat ures are to be introduced So boys, come and get acquainted with Lulu. and don't forget the flowers. There will be a special matinee this after noon.
