tomorrow will be the culmination
of their efforts.
It is exnected that a large nunl

already been named for marking
the excellence of the flowers for
the award of prizes .

•LASSES’ WHITE SCORES
HIT IN WINSTON-SALEM
Proof of the fact that “Lasses”
White this year has one of the best
ministerial shows ever on the road
is attested by the following review
appearing in the Winston-Salem, N.
C. Journal. “Lasses” White’s
Minstrels will give one perform
ance at the Rylander theatre on
Tuesday night, Nov. 13.
I Says the Journal:
The presentation of “Lasses”
- White’s Minstrel at he auditorium
! theatre last night was a knockout
; from start to finish. From the
I rise of the curtain in the first epi
! sode until the program had cm
i eluded the audience was kept in
i continual uproar of laughter, and
those who witnessed the show were
unstinted in their praise, declaring
it the “best minstrel show ever giv
‘en in Winston-Salem.”
“Lasses” White was at his best
and his side kick, Skeet Mayo, gave
him a clobe run for first honors.
Skeet’s first appearance on the
stage singing, ’■You've Got to See
Papa Every Night,” was the first
i sensation of the program and he
was given round alter round of ap-
plause.
Along with “Lasses” and Skeet
was another star, Billy Doss, Who,
in the fourth episode, pulled a
monolouge stunt that was a scream.
The scenery and costumes used
in the minstrel were above the
average. Especial mention may bo
made of the beach scene. The
'lighting effects were splendid.
The Blackville Harmony club
made a big hit with the audience,
as did the buck dancers. The
Blackville speedway, in which Las
ses White and Skeet Mayo starred,
was so humorous that many almost
went into hysterics as the two
comedians discussed their engine
trouble.
WILLIAM DUNCAN HAS
THRILLING ROLE IN FILM
Railroad construction, plots and
counterplots in a b>g engineering
camp, hair-breadth escapes and
breath-taking adventures form the
background for “The Steel Trail,”
starring William Duncan and Edith
Johnsen at the Rylander theatre on
Saturday.
Crammed with spectacular inci
dents, every foot of the fast mov
ing story is crowded with action.
Duncan, as the engineer in charge
of the big construction camp in
the wilderness, battling plotsK oil
enemies from financial centers on
one hand and the fury of the ele
ments on the other, has a virile role
that he handles with all his skill at
characterization.
Miss Johpson is winsome as Jud
' ith, daufthtfr of the owner of the
! railroad, and, with Duncan, figures
in thrilling escapes and exciting in
cidents igalOTe. A spectacular
plunge from a cliff in a heavy au
tomobile v a death-defying ride on
a runaway freight car, landslides,

explosions, and similar incidents 1
form the thrills that are lightened
by an appeal of romance running
through the story.
“The Steel Trail” is only part of
a program which is one of the most
intersting arranged by the Rylan
der in some time. Included is
Tom Mix in his latest feature pro
duction, “Romance Land;” Taking
; Orders,” a Century comedy; Art
Acord in the last chapter of “The
Oregon Trajl.”
