NORMA ADVISES STAGE
ASPIRANTS TO TRY

"Girls. IL you have stage or screen
aspirations-go after the realization
of your dreams" This is the advice
OF Miss Norma Talmadge, star of "Yes-
or No" her latest big screen success
in which she opens weeks engage
ment at Moores Rialto Theater to-
morrow.
"I realize that in giving this ad-
vice." continues Miss Talmadge.
I am going contrary to the general
opinion Of my fellow actresses, but
this is how I honestly feel about the
matter and had I taken the counsel
of my friends when I was contem-
plating a plunge into my present pro-
fession, I would never have been
where l am today. I am a great be-
lieve in what is slangily termed "a
hunch.' To be more explicit-the e
feeling one has that some mental sug-
gestion or desire that occurs to them
should be carried out. 1t was one OF
these same lunches that determined
me to try for the profession Of acting
and have never regretted 1t since
l took the plunge.
$50 girls, IL you feel that you mus
become an actress-either in the
spoken drama or on the screen-go
to It. But you must realize before
embarkIng in II that II Is full OF bit
ter disappointments and hard work.
The word playing Is an erroneous defi-
nition OF acting 1t is WORK and all
work and the one who succeeds ~
the one who works the hardest. 1t is
n long, hard bitter fisht to reach III z
top, But when you get there 1t Is
we'll worth any sacrifice you have
made.
"But IL you are willing to work and
make these sacrifices and know Just
what you will have to endure-nnd
are still anxious to give 1t a try--why,
go right after It, for then Il Is just
that you have the qualities that make
for success,

Wife of Prominent
Contractor Dies Sud-
denly This Morning
Mrs. George Griffin Succumbs
to Apoplexy
Funeral to be Held Saturday
Afternoon with lnterment
at Bethel Cemetery

The sudden leath this morning
of Mary M. wife of George W..
Griffin came as a severe shock to
the whole town for her illness
which developed suddenly last
night was unknown to most of the
friends and relatives.
Mrs. Griffin was in her ordinary
health and spirits yesterday and
performed the usual daily tasks.
About 5 o'clock she went upstairs
and lay down for brief rest.
She was suddenly seized with
severe pains in the head and call
ed to her daughter, Mrs. Edna
Fader who Immediately summoned
medical aid. Mrs. Griffin in few
minutes lapsed into an unconsci-
Gus state from which she never
rallied. Everything that medica al
assistance could accomplish was
done by the doctors of the town,
but without avail. Her sons Byr-
on and Howard were summoned
from Norfolk and Howard arrived
before her death. Mrs. Griffin
was the daughter of the late John
and Elizabeth Ramsey and was
born in Cecil Co., Md. where her
girlhood was spent. Practically
all of her married life has been
spent in Newark.
Mrs. Griffin was woman of
charming personality, a consistent
member of the Presbyterian
church, good Christian woman
beloved of a large circle of friends
who bear abundant testimany OF
her worth and her admirable
character. A devoted wife and
mother, her example and training
have left an indelible impress or
those who are left behind.
She is survived by her husband

High School Alumni
Association Begins
Membership Drive
VIII Now Admit Non-Graduates
Plans for Memorial Day Ser
vice in Conjunction with
the Local G.. A. r. Post

A special meeting of the Newark
High School Alumni Association
was held at the Academy building
last Saturday evening to consider
activities for the current year. In
view of the increased demand on
the treasury due to the advance in
prices over those of last year, it
was deemed necessary to increase
the dues from SOC to $1.OO per
member. Plans for the annual
banquet and the projected men,
bership drive inaugurated last
year were discussed briefly.
A meeting of the Executive
Board was held at the home of
Miss Lydia Fader on Wednesday
evening when it was decided to do
intensive work in pushing the
membership drive.
In 1919 committee was ap-
pointed, to consider the question
of admitting to membership those
who had been students at the high
school but who did not complete
the prescribed course. AS a re-
suit of this resolution was adopt
ed to the effect that any former
student who completed one-half
of the course of study prescribed
at the time of his enrolment, is
eligible to membership. Since
neither the school authorities nor
the Association has any record of
the work done by individual stu
dents, the latter must take the mi
tiative in joining since obviously
it is impossible for the Association
to know those to whom invitation
should be extended. They are
particularly anxious therefore,
that individuals who are eligible
come forward and place their
names with the chairman.
The full text of the resolution
covering this point together with
the general invitation is found
elsewhere in this paper.
At the executive board meeting
tentative plans for a Memorial Day
celebration to be held jointly with
the G. A. R. were made.
A committee consisting of the
President, Miss Eta J. Wilson,
Captain j. Wilbert Ramsey, and
Miss Agnes Medill, was appointed
to confer with j. E. Luton of
Reynolds Post No. 20, G. A. R..
relative to fitting program.
In order to provide funds for
this and other activities the AS
sociation will give a moving pic
ture benefit "Under the Willow
Tree" next Monday evening.
