The rehearsals for peggy" the
four-act race horse comedy to be
presented at the Strand, next week,
under the auspices of the Knights of
Columbus, with a cast of Hays
young folks under professional direc-

best home talent plays ever staged in
Hays
Large and appreciative audiences
were present at the Strand, both Sun
day and Monday nights, to witness
the screen production of GA Certain
Rich Man," from William Allen
Whites powerful story of American
life-Kansas life, picture rich in
drama, humor and action. The set
tings were superb, the cast left
nothing to be desired, the picture
was really a perfect example Of
screen entertainment; all in all it
was one of the best pictures ever
screened at the Strand.
For three years molly" huge
polar bear in the Woodland Park Zoo,
Seattle, has destroyed her offspring

mother bear crushed the life out of
her babies to spare them the tor
ments she suffers, the misery Of cap
tivity. Who knows whether this may
not be the true explanation Of this
apparently unnatural act?
