PADDY KENNY STILL
PREDICTS FOR FRIENDS

Paddy Kenny, the Lehigh Valley
oracle, just can't help prophesying.
Though he resigned his official posi-
tion, to close and real intimate
friends he still gives his barometrical
observations, and assures them as OF
old what manner of weather we are
scheduled to have. Yesterday he
told a NEWS man, before looking at
the newspaper, that it had to either
rain or snow. which. like the rest of
his predictions, was infallible.

popular star, Frances Starr, in her
latest creation The Case Of Becky"
at the Metropolitan opera house Mon
day evening, July {, for the first time.
The success achieved by Miss Starr
IN this really remarkable play has
been something phenomenal. for she
discloses an artistry in .histrtonism
that many of her most ardent admir-
ers doubted she possessed. but thanks
to the guiding genius of Nj. Belasco.
she has succeeded in revealing a YER
satility in delineating the dual role
of Becky" and Dorothy that has
never been equalled upon the Ameri-
can stage since the famous presenta-
ton of DIR. Jekyll and Mr.. HYDE" by
the illustrious Richard Mansfield.
When Mr.. Belasco afirms hat her
portrature far surpasses her capital
performance in The Easiest Way" 1t
