self would be fine thing for some
fortunate lady, but when she is to
get in addition $50 for that nice posi-
ton in the moving picture play it will
not only be nice but profitable We
have some beautiful young ladies
(single and married) in Newberry
who would "look good in the picture,
all of whom are eligible. 1t will be
easy going, because no experience is
required. All interested are request
ed 10 call at the Arcade. We just
know there are some embryo stars
in Newberry. See Mr.. Strasser and

you.
In addition to the staging of this
drama, there will be another picture
put on at an early date. This Sec
ond picture will consist of street and
industrial scenes of the city Of New
berry, showing the resources of the
place. To that end the management
requests everybody to assemble on the
public square Saturday afternoon at
2 o'clock, on foot and in automobiles;

the community generally will respond

ture will boost the city. These pic
lures will be exhibited in the motion
picture theatres throughout the coun-
trv.

daily from all parts of the United

the United States in the world war has
caused an increase in interest in mill
tary training as an activity for sec
ondary schools.

quiries. and to have a definite state
ment OF aims. methods and other in
formation regarding the High School
Cadets. cadet manual is to be issued.
