A mighty pleasant session it was

the brightest shafts of the Bard,

into the leafy arboreal setting pro-
Vlded by the Sylvan Theater.
Thus 1t makes for a completely

with the skill with which last nights
playing was graced. There may be.

Brother Myron's theory may be sound.
Or it may not be. Only the future

indifferent to the demands Of the

Even before realization catches up

there is not, it is a suggestion that Is
too provocative to 60 unnoticed, which
undoubtedly is falling right into the
hands Of the Selznicks who never were
boys to scorn the value Of publicity.
One thought that comes to mind is
that 1t is just the thing to encourage
further mutiny in Hollywood, the
planting Of the right seed in the egos
or maybe the sound artistic aspira-
tions-of the glamour boys and girls
The ground has been prepared for

All of which constitutes an overture
to the announcement that R-K-O has
a feeling it may have just such
picture in Mother Carey's Chickens"
which opens tomorrow at Keith's.
1t is based. of course. upon the
comparative classic of the same name
by Kate Douglas Wiggin who in 1910
started making herself lot Of royal
ties on the story Of whimsical family
left penniless by the death OF its naval
father In the war with Spain.
One of the interesting features of
the picture is that 1t represents the
effort of Ruby Keeler, assisted by the
studio, to convert herself from q sing
ing dancing star into q dramatic
actress. Miss Keeler, who gave up golf
which she thinks Is the finest pastime
in the world, to return to the movies
is a very earnest young lady in her
determination to come back to pictures
in new groove. While modestly
making no comparisons between her
self and Ginger Rogers, she is much
impressed by the fact that Miss Rogers
achieved the same transition with re-
markable success. She would like to
do the same thing.

Holt Outlines
Experiences in |. Y.
In Early Days

A firSt-hand picture, tinged with
humor as we'll as the serious reality
of the pioneer days in Imperial
Valley was given Thursday by Le-
roy Holt before the FL Centre Ro-
tary club at its meeting in the
Barbara Worth hotel.
The occasion was in the nature
OF a tribute to Mr.. and Mrs. Holt
who, after 39 years devoted to the
development of the valley, expect
to leave here in the near future.
Hollis retirement as vice-president
of the Bank of America in charge
of the banks operations here, was
announced last week.
Holt told how he first came to
Imperial from Missouri in 1900 and
returned to bring his family early
in 1901. Drinking water was brought
from a water hole miles from
Imperial. Settlers were faced with
necessity of living in tents and
without communications with the
outside world, Holt explained in
picturing the hardshlps OF the
early residents.
He told Of the first crops in the
valley sorghum and Kaffir corn,
and how their growth was so eX-
tensiVe that he went to Arizona
and shipped in cattle to consume
the crop.
He narrated how he and his
brother built the first telephone
line from CaleXico to Flowing Wells
and how he bought a bicycle in
order TO expedite travel, how he
bought the store at Imperial and
was forced to operate without suf-
ficient transportation facilities or
stocks of goods.
Following his talk, President j.
E. Brock expressed the good wishes
of the Rotary club to Mr. Holt and
Mrs. Holt, both of whom Brock
declared have been of preeminent
Importance in the development of
the valley. Roy BreedloVe, chair
