 "Dinty" is the story of plucky newsboy and is portrayed by Wesley Barry, "Tbe Freckle-faced Kid, who made such hit with Mary Pickford in Daddy Long Legs" As result of this success the versatile Marshall Neilan wrote "Dinty" especially for him. It is Wesley Barry's first star ring venture and it is winner. Sup porting him are other luminaries such as Marjorie Daw, Colleen Moore, Noah Beery and dozen other good ones in cluding Walter Chong, little Chinese boy, and Aaron Mitchell, real picka- nlnny, who are newsboy associates of "Dinty." The story has a picturesque setting in San Francisco's China town where "Dinty" is a newsboy and fights his way to the head of the Newsboy's Trust all for the sake of his Irish mother-at first. Later a pretty romance develops and-but come; see for yourself.
 Heave a sigh of relief, ye men and women of Flagstaff, for the Social Service circle has decided not to sell tickets about town. They are de- pending on you to come without this reminder; the reason is two-fold, you will be aiding most worthy cause and at the same time enjoying an ev- ening's real entertainment.
 The regular reserved seat prices will prevail at night. There will be a special children's matinee at 4 O. clock; price ten cents. It is a pic ture all kiddies will enjoy.
 Don't forget the date, Monday, Sep tember IA, and the name of the show "Dinty."
 Reception to MT. and Mrs.
 Thomas and Teachers.
 Messrs. V. M. Slipher, M. C. Fron- ske and G. T. Harrington, of the city school board, have planned an event that is sure to find favor with the patrons of our city schools. It is an informal reception, to be given at o'clock Friday night, September 16 at the old Presbyterian church, in honor of Superintendent and Mrs. John Q. Thomas and both the new and the old teachers.
 Some of the old teachers are not personally acquainted with all of the parents of the children they have taught and will teach. Most of the new teachers have been here only a few days and have been too busy to meet many of the school patrons. Professor and Mrs. Thomas, who have been here several weeks, have already formed quite a circle of friends, with whom they have become popular, but there are many others who will ap- preciate the opportunity of getting ac- quainted with them.
 Not anly parents but ail others who are interested in our schools and their progress, are cordially invited by the school board to be present and the latter and their ladies promise that there will be no lack of introductions.
