the world as much amusement as
those of the Crescent Henry did to
his audience, theI-let us have more
of them. This play, 'Henpecked
Henry with Jack Trainor as the OPP
pressed but exuberent male, is adver-
tised as a musical farce. and living
up to its name with a good cast, in
Guiding a well drilled sextette of

NEWS EDITORIAL
HEARTILY APPROVED

Hearty commentator of the edi
torial appearing in The News last
Saturday on Christmas Celebration,
was made today by the Whatsoever
Circle of the Kings Daughters, II j
letter to The News.
The letter states that:
"The Kings Daughters of Hatties.
burg wish to thank the Editor of The
News for his splendid editorial
Christmas Celebration published De-
cember 4, in that paper. AT the glad
Christmas time when all the world
should be happy in celebrating the
birth of the Christ Child, the Kings
Daughters have always redoubled
their efforts to see that none of the
poor should be left out. All should
be remembered in His name, and
every little child made happy. In
previous years many have had to be
clothed and fed before they could
come to the Xmas tree. Who OF us
could be happy, cold and hungry?
The Kings Daughters are trying to
practice Christ's second command
ment and emulate Him when he said,
I must be about my Fathers bnsi-
ness.
Again we thank the editor for his
timely and well spoken words, and
feel sure the Hattiesburg public who
have never failed them vet will not
be appealed TO in vain. but will bring
happiness into their own lives by
making others happy.
