To Our Subscribers.

In the furtherance of our effort toI
produce for Welsh and vicinity a bet
ter newspaper-one more fully repre-
sentative of the progressive COM
munfty which it serves, the manage
ment of the Journal has secured the
services of a Society Editor in the
person of Miss Corinne Bradbury.
Miss Bradbury is recently from the
Port Arthur Collegiate Institute, is
competent and energetic, and we feel
certain will add much of interest to
the columns of the Journal which she
will conduct.
In order to have any measure OF
success our representative must have
the cooperation of the readers OF the
paper to the fullest extent, and by
the term cooperation we mean assist
ance. A newspaper reporter need not
of necessity be a detective, in fact
reputable paper like the Journal does
not want news that has to be ferreted
out in a gum shoe manner. We want
| the facts to come voluntarily from
| these who know.
Another point we wish to bring out
| is that there are no chosen few III
| this matter of helping to build up a
| local newspaper that will will be a
isource of pride to the citizens of the
community Everyone knows little
items that are Of general interest, if
! they will Just take a little trouble to
! get them into the hands Of the news
paper representative. You may say,
whats the use of this fact to appear
! in the paper, when everyone in town
knows it, anyway" The Journal has
several hundred readers in other COM
munities and states, all the way from
Maine to California, down the east
coast to Virginia and Florida, and
across the continent again to far-aWay
Washington, who either were at one
time residents of the community or
are deeply interested from some other
reason. They watch the columns of
the Journal closely for names they
are familiar with, or for signs of
progress. Your item that everybody
here knows all about will be good
news to them.
Conditions which are forcing news
papers all over the country out OF
business are combining the editor OF
this paper more and more to the me-
Chanical and business details of the
publication. We are not going out OF
business, but on the contrary are go
ing to double up, but On readjusted
lines. We are going to turn to adj
vantage what has been the other fel-
lows undoing. We know you will ap'
preciate the result of the effort, and
we repeat the solicitation of your co
Operation, not in a financial way, but
in building up the news columns of the

/, S. U. DRAMATIC CLUB Is
THE ENVY OF PROFESSIONALS
Present Comedy Production at the
Auditorium December 9Th.

"Allof-a-Sudden Peggy" which
comes to the Auditorium Friday eve
ming, December 5th, promises to be
one OF the finest things that will be
seen in Welsh this season.
This is a very attractive play that
caught the discerning eye of the great
est of all producers, Charles Froham,
Under his direction Marie Tempest
starred in the comedy in London in
1906 and Henrietta Grossman in New
York in 1907 Rarely do we find a
dramatic production that is associated
with three such names as these. This
fact alone speaks volumes for the
type of the play to be presented by
the L. S. U. Dramatis Club The
people are assured thoroughly up
to-date, modern, alive, 10th century
comedy.
The L. S. U. Dramatic Club has
reputation as producing agency that
might we'll be envied by professional
companies. They bling the atmosphere
of college life and college training,
plus dramatic talent and technique.
"All-of-a-Sudden Peggy" is describ'
ed as: Act 1.-The suddenness OF
Peggy. Act 1.-THE suddenness OF
consequences. Act 3.-The conse-
quences of suddenness.
The plot centers around the attempt
of Mrs. O'Mara to capture for her
daughter, Peggy, the eccentric and
eligible Lord Crackenthorpe and the
attempts and counter-atempts of the
entire Crackenthorpe family to pre-
serve the family name. Meanwhile
Peggy is always doing the most i'm
pulsive things to the discomforture OF
all concerned. At the end of the third
act of hilarious merriment the comedy
ends, all of sudden, and not as yor
expect it.

her subject
why do girls lose the rich boys

That's something the girl tries to
keep herself from knowing. In some
instances there is a combination of
things that sap her golden romance
in the bud. But usually there is one
eminent cause for il. This is the
fact that the girl overdoes herself.

most instances is too anxious to show
her affection for the wealthy suitor

charm. Whenever the mystery OF
