Normal school here in April has an

growth of the musical contests
fashioned after the Welsh ELS

of Lyon county nearly sixty years

was a heavy migration of Welsh
settlers to Lyon county and they
brought with them the traditional
Welsh love fof music.
The several Welsh colonies in
the county annually engaged In
musical contests and candidates
were selected to compete in state
Eisteddfods. In later years un-
der the direction of the late D. O.
Jones, a Welshman, for more than
forty years supervisor of music in

Emporia choruses and musicians
won so many first prizes that they
were barred from participation.

YOU MUST BE welded
TO BE DRAMATIC, SAYS
DOROTHY GISH AT "B'

Dorothy Gish, the poppy little
screen comedienne, believes good
motion picture shouldn't end with
marriage, but should begin with It:
''The French say, you know,
explained Miss Gish recently, that
no possible drama can happen IN
the life of a perfectly good young
girl. Her tragedies consist in nav
ing someone copy her favorite dress
and someone else not inviting her
to the party. The real story OF her
life begins with her marriage
With this idea in mind, Miss Glsh
has made a speciality of portraylns
the young married woman on the
screen. However. the Gish idea
has not been to expound the prob
lens of marriage, or even discuss
the minimum in salary upon when
two young folks today can take the
plunge. Her pictures treat of the
funny side of the little tragedies
and comedies of newly welded
bliss. "Flying Pat" her latest
comedy-romance is being repeated
today at the "B" theater.
James Rennie is the leading man
and the story was adapted from an
original by Virginia Whitney. Rich
ard Jones, late of the Mack Sennett
forces, directed the picture.

"HELP YOURSELF" rs
A SOCIETY SATIRE
BY MADGE KENNEDY

Some folks acquire so much
money that they don't know what
to do with themselves! Looking
for excitement becomes the most
important thing in their lives.
What a chance for the professional
promoter of fads! Tired of futur-
lists, Summing expeditions, crystal
gazing and the Skinny Aunt
Carmen became interested in a new
brand of sociology and dragge ]
Emily Ray in with her. Oh, what
a riot of fun! In Help Yourself,
Samuel Goldwyn presents Madge
Kennedy in a screamingly funny
farce of fads and follies, as IN
dulged in by high society.
A society satire, that's just what
Help Yourself" is Not meant to
be serious it doesn't for minute
dabble in serious things 1t just
keeps on "farcing" it, stirring up
whirlwinds of laughter as it goes.
And Madge Kennedy, princess oil
light comedy moves along in the
van Of the procession in a particu-
larry happy role. Laughing at the
rich is one of the few privileges
still enjoyed by the public.
The above picture is being re-
peated at the Lyric today, and be-
sides, as an added attraction, -four
members of the Sonora Grand
Opera company will appear at
each show. Don't miss attending
