VACATION TIME IS OVER.

Back from seasshore, mountains and country come the army of sum- mer vacationists, to settle down to the regular rountine of daily life Tn the work-a-day world. They have benefited greatly by the rest and re- creation. They take hold of life's duties with a firmer grip, stronger re- termination, more definite purpose.

POL.I'S.

A seemingly never ending line or people at%the box office of Polls Theatre from the time it opens until it closes is indicative of two facts one of which is that large numbers of people are going to see the perform ance of The Dollar Mark" at Polls this week the farewell of the Poli players for the season and greater number are going to have Subscript- ion seats for the vaudeville season aS hundreds have already registered It has come to bt custom with the great majority of Pon patrons to have the same seats weekly during the vaudeville season and it is popu- lar custom because one always knows just where the seats are and what the view is and besides there is saved the annoyance of calling up each wishes 1t announced that the sale of seats for next week is also on and that Manager PoH has booked in a great bill for the premiere with Aida Overton Walker and her company the positive hit of the Hammerstein bill this week as the headline act and great septet of star acts on the same bill.
 This weeks production of ''The Dol lar Mark" is most enjoyable one and the Broadhurst play is intensely interesting with sensational situation following sensational situation. It is a story of class against mass, the rich against the poor, the interests against the common folks and it is we'll told and better acted. All the favorites of the company are cast in roles which allow them to show their real talent and the play is fitting finale for a most successful season.
 Stage Director Eagle has spared no pains on the part of himself or his m echanical force to have a complete and the scenic investiture the ship scene in the third act is especially fine.
 Between the act Tom DriscolI and the Singing Ushers get across two big song hits 'Harbor of Love" and My Hula-Hula Love" and the elect rograph has a great series of views.

(Special from United Press

Especial from United Press)
 Hartford, Aug. 30-Despite the plat form promises made by the Republi- can and Democratic nominating con- ventions last November, it is certain today that the Legislature will adjourn without enactfng the promised employ CTS liability act. The Democrats and the Republican Gubernatorial candi- date held out hope also of a work mems compensation act, but all idea of such legislation at this session has been given up. The finishing touches were put on in the House yesterday when it rejected a conference report on workmen's compensation and em- ployers liability. Previously the Sen- ate had passed the bills and the House had rejected them. The conference committee could not agree and report ed separately to the two branches of the General Assembly, The House adhered to its former adverse action

(By Percy Shaw
According to the papers
Everyone's away;
Yet the crowds seem just as big
All along Broadway;
People ride the Avenue,
Staring night and day;
But of course they're no one, for
Everyone's away.
Strange the cars are crowded, too,
Enter the subway
You can hardly be convinced
Everyone's away;
When the garlic-eater breathes,
While you cling and sway,
Woe to him who tells you that
EVeryone's away.
Strange the cars are crowded, to,
Strange the roofs are full;
Strange the stoops are thick with folks
Trying to keep cool.
Strange the Coney boats are packed
Ferries jammed all day.
How do you explain it when
Everyone's away?
Maybe it's the point of view
las to who is what.
When you go you're everyone,
When you stay you're not.
All the same it's comfort for
You and me to say
Things run just as smoothly with
Everyone away"
