New Welsh Drama,
New Welsh Drama, Ruth Produced at Pentre. Instantaneous Success. It is seldom one can record such a tremendous success as the first -perform- ance of the Welsh drama, Ruth/' at the Drill Hall on Thursday evening last, under the auspices of Siloh Young People's Society. This drama, is the joint work of the Rev. J. J. Williams, twice crowned National bard, and Mr. James; Davies, L.T.S.O., a well-known local musician and choir conductor. The work has re- ceived very favourable criticism at the. hands of numerous reviewers, so that the first performance was eagerly awaited by a large number of people in and out of the Valley. The doors were opened sooner than the advertised time, and the hall was so full that a large number of ticket-holders failed to gain admission. The scenery had been, well arranged. Prompt to time, the Rev. J. J. Williams stepped into public view and spoke a few words, much regretting the absence of the appointed chairman, Alderman E. H. Davies who had sent \t telegram wishing success to all concerned for the evening. The1 first act introduced four chief characters "Elimelech" and his wife, Naomi. together with their two sons, "Malon" and Chilion." The husband is a con- scientious man who is possessed with one burning but sad desire to leave his native country—because of the famine—for the land of traditional enemies, the Moabites. He discloses this desire to his faithful wife, Naomi," who tries to turn him aside from his purpose. The young sons eagerly devour the plan and build up great prospects for themselves. The second act is a magnificent one. Here we have the Moabite soldiers defending their god and country against the intruding Jewish family, who are taken to be a party of spies. The first scene arouses intense excitement, and the excellent acting of the participants in this scene deserves the highest praise. The second scene centres around the widow Naomi and her sons, each of whom is'married to Moabite women, who prove that they love their mother-in ??w, although they are of a different na.iire. The third scene is extremely affecti ilg- several persons in the audience being visibly moved. The hand of death has been heavy. In addition to Elimeletfh, both sons, Malon and Chilion. are dead, so that there are three widows. The old lady determines to return to her native land, but fails to leave the district ex- cept accompanied by one of her daugh- ters-in-law, namely, Ruth. The love be- tween Ruth and Naomi is excellently demonstrated. In the .third act there are three M enes, including the arrival of Naomi and Ruth at Bethlehem, the; first harvesting opera- tions after the famine, and also the union of Ruth with Boaz. It would be unfair to single out any member of the caste as having done better than another. Each of the prin- cipal characters was excellently portrayed, while the minor ones were. as good as we could wish for. In all respects the performance was a striking success. The musical items, including several solos and choruses, added to the charm of the whole and won hearty encomiums for the young composer, who also aecom-" panied at the piano in a very efficient manner. A second performance of the drama is in great demand, and Welshmen in the Valley would be well advised to see the performance at the first possible opportunity. The principal characters were as follow: Ruth Miss Cassie Davies; Naomi," Miss Ann Hopkins "Elimelech, Mr. Tom Richards; Mahlon," Mr. David Evans; "Chilion," Mr. Gwilym Howells; "Ornah," Miss A. M. Griffiths; Boaz," Mr. James Davies; soldiers, reapers, servants, elders, mes- sengers, etc., members of Siloh Young People's Society.

Trealaw.
Trealaw. A highly successful apron tea was held at the Schools on Thursday last in sup- I port of Miss E. M. Harris, an assistant teacher, who has lost her health. The teaching fraternity throughout the Valley responded handsomely to a circular sent out explaining the circumstances, and bought tickets without demur. Miss Harris is at present in Cardiff Infirmary, and will be unable to resume duties for a very long; time. It is hoped to realise a substantial sum from the tea and sale of aprons. A sectional whist drive fol- lowed the tea and was very well patron- J ised.
