ZONA GALE'S PLAY TO APPEAR
"Miss Lulu Bett" Has Achieved Lasting Popularity
No play produced in New York last season achieved the solid and lasting popularity that characterized the engagements of "Miss Luu Bett," Zona Gale's dramatization of her diverting human and widely read novel of the same name, which will be produced at the Bowersock Theatre January 12, with the favorite comedian, Emma Bunting in the title role and a cast ideally suited to the part they portray.
A full length picture of lite as it is in any of a thousand "Main Street"s is offered in "Miss Lulu Betta," the book by the author of the provincial America and shown it in all its hardness and narrowness, with the strain of a native heroism, a nobility which at times succeedes in breaking through the barrier of the house she has faithfully transferred to the stage with realism and simplicity.
The home life of the Betts-Duce family forms the background o "Miss Lulu贝卜". The play is really a study in seiffrench hues. The mother, a widowed mother, a sister lady, her blurring brother in-law and her thoughtless young nieces. The downsidden spinner toils and cooks and a grailey wife.
Suddenly a movie star asks what a real jewel cub is. How he marries her in a light, jesting way, and how the ordal that follows awakens Lulu Bett and shakes her family to its foundations—these are the developments of
Emma Bunting portrays the character, Lulu in a remarkably realistic manner. One of the great surprises of the performance is that Miss Bunting, who formerly has played ingene type, will hardly be recalled as the star of "The Girl in the Limousine," which was produced in Lawrence last year. In "Miss Lulu Bett" she is the close brother, drude of the Director.
"Miss Lula B-47" was awarded the Pulitzer Columbia University Prize as the best play produced during the season of 1920-21.
Seats for the performance will be placed on sale at the box office of the Bowersock Theatre. Tuesday morning at 10 o'clock.

Fiction Is Favorite For Pleasure Hours
Fiction seems to be the most popular form of literature read by K. U. women, judging by interviews with twenty different girls, chosen at random. A great majority of these adults seem to think that but something more serious with it, poetry and essays have the lead. Only one said that she didn't read anything light. She mentioned the Literary Digest, Independent, and Atlantic Monthly as magazines that she always read from "cover to cover" in the minority, only two or three, mentioning them as their favorite.
A few girls had their own baskets in books. One said her favorite was any kind of book on "business-case" another one liked books on "the best." Still another mentioned historical novels as her a special delight.
Magazines are apparently better liked than books. Most that said they had time to read a short story rather than a long one. The Saturday Evening Post was mentioned as the most read, with the American a close second. Two or three preferred the Atlantic Monthly.
One girl when interviewed said, "If I get time to read my lessons, I'm doing well, but they're not my favorite. I never need for pleasure."
