POLI'S

Theatrical ridgeport-meaning ev- eryone who goes to the theatre regu- larly or occasionally-is on the alert waiting for the opening on Monday of 'The Milk Inspector" Robert M. Sperry's production of melody, mirth and fun which is to occupy the boards at Polls during the week, marking the crystal jubilee of the Sperry an- nual productions.
 Exceptional things have been. prom ised for ''the Milk Inspector" and
 those who have been privileged to witness one of the rehearsals of the piece declare that the promises will
 be more than fulfilled by the enter tainment.
 In anticipation of the gala week, Polis theatre has been gorgeously decorated for the occasion and is scarcely recognizable in it's holiday dress. On every hand the visitors are greeted with visible evidences of the enterprise and scope of the produc- tion and the lavish scale upon which all features of the entertainment have been carried out.
 Opening night in particular will be an extraordinary event, one of the features of which will be the pres. ence of a box party composed of Mayor Clifford B. Wilson and his several predecessors in office,> ex-
 Mayors Hugh Stirling, Marcus l.. Reynolds, Denis Mulvihill, Henry Lee, and Edward T. Buckingham. Such a gathering of mayoralty material

Steinbach. who has been the feature of every Sperry closing since the first, will be prominent in the cast. MT. Sperry and Miss Steinbach will give the imitation of Kelly 6 Marshall which made such big hit on a pre- vious occasion,-this aside from their regular roles in the performance
 Then the cast will include such favorites as Martha Hurd, Clara Brill. Charles E.. Dickerson. Iceland Lownds, Charles R. Jewett, Charles E. Peck, Grace Lownds, Bernard Brill, Lydia Elrod, Frank H. Cook, Marion Storms and Jack London. The musical numbers will be hits especial ly written for the production by John J. Reynolds who has outdone himself in this regard for the 18th annual closing.
 Polls during the coming week will be the Mecca of all who are seeking bright and pleasing entertainment The only difficulty in the way is the fact that the theatre isn't twice as large as it is, and the wise ones al- ready are securing their seats

has never been seen together in Bridgeport before and is a tribute to the drawing power of the Sperry pro- ductiOn
 The scene of 'eThe Milk Inspector is laid in Stratford, and the familiar streets of that town are perfectly re- produced in the scenic equipment. The plot of the playlet is just heavy enough to hang no end of fun upon, and the laughs are continuous from start to finish. In word, 'The Milk Inspector is a round of right good ntertainment throughout and the only thing lacking in it is dull moment. Interspersed in the regular run of the comedy are Interruptions of vaudeville and musical hits which serve to add additional variety and spice to an already sparkling enter tainment.
 Not only is the comedy itself To- cal in character and brimful of keen witticisms applying to Bridgeport To- calities, but the cast includes an ag- gregation of local favorites whose friends will delight to see them in the roles provided for them.
 For the first time in four years MT. Sperry, the or-playwright, is appearing in one of his own produc- tions. and of course Miss Hattie l.

AT THE LYRIC

This evening, the closing perform ance of 'The Belle of Richmond" will be seen. and no doubt the theatre will be crowded to the doors. Such is the Saturday night record at the Lyric, and the popularity of the Car penter company and of 'eThe Belle of Richmond" this week, assure the completion of the weeks splendid success.
 This delightful Southern play is beautifully rendered by the Carpen- charming an offering as they have presented this season. All who have seen it unite in it's praise, and in warm words of commenAation for the company. There are still some few seats remaining for this evenings performance, but they will last but short time, and the first corners will be the ones that will benefit, Be sure and see this beautiful pro- auction at any cost, for it is a dra- matic offering which is strictly worth while.
 Rallies, the Amateur Crachsman', will be the offering for next week, and in this the Carpenter company will provide an entertainment of ex- ceptional merit. This great detective story was first presented to the pub lie with Kyrle Bellew and E. M. Hol- land in the principal characters of the burglar and the detective, and it was an instantaneous success. Such it has continued to be at all periods to the present, and the patrons of the Lyric are especially fortunate in having the opportunity at this time to witness this great play, presented by such a capable cast as that of the Carpenter company.
 MT. Conness and Mir Carroll will have the roles played by MT. Bellew and MT. Holland, and that they will give a rendition of the parts which shall be of exceptional credit to them selves goes without saying. The abil- ity and the versatility of each gen. tleman are we'll known and they will each be seen with complete satisfac- tion.
 Miss Cleveland and the others of the Carpenter company will be seen in sentation will savor of & dramatic merit which has been unknown in any other stock company ever appearing in Bridgeport. The play will be handsomely. and effectively staged. Manager Isham sparing no pains of expense to. make this one of the best attractions given at the Lyric this season. A splendid dramatic treat will be afforded in the presentation of ''Raffles'' and the theatre should be filled to the doors at every per- formance.
 The seat sale for the whole week is now on, and many are buying we'll in advance, thus following the injunc- tion of the management to "get your seats carly

FARMERS INSTITUTE
A ROusin9 Success.

AS usual whenever an institute il
held in Yale, everybody is interested,
farmers and townspeople, and Tuesday
of this week, the appointed date, was
no exception.
The day was beautiful one and
Central hall was well filled througho ut
the afternoon and crowded for the eve
ming session.
The addresses, papers and discussions
were highly interesting and thoroughly
instructive.
The subjects taken up are of the ut
most Importance to the farmer and the
addresses gwen by the townspeople are
extremely helpful and are the source of
much good.
Mayor Rub welcomed all the visitors
to our little city in a few brief, pithy
remarks which were responded to by
President A. Il. Stevenson who spoke
OF the good of the institutes.
The state speaker, Mr.. Driscoll, took
up the subject, "Growing and Handling
the Bean Crop" This subject is of
paramount interest to the farmers at
the present time, as more beans are
grown each year and the farmer is
eager TO gam all the facts concerning
this crop.
Another subject which is being so
much discussed all over the land is that
of "Good Roads" and the audience
learned many things of value this day
when j. II. Dodge, another state speak
er, explained and enlarged upon many
points in his talk which gave enlighten.
ment. Mr.. Dodge has this subject well
in hand.
When the question box was opened,
one subject was very freely talked upon
and discussed by many present and
that was III reference ~ creameries and |
the testing OF cream. The majority |
were in favor of grading the cream |
that is, in paying different prices. |
There is difference in cream the same |
as III most other commodities and il |
was thought only fair that the best |
cream should bring the highest price.
Another interesting subject was in, !
troduced III the evening that of Caring |
for our Apple Orchards. Mr.. Drscoll |
emphasized the matter of spraying as
being very important factor for good
fruit. Farmers are often careless about |
their orchards but more every year are
coming TO see the necessity of using
the spray.
\. }. Drouyor, superintendent of Yale
schools, talked on success and made
it plain to his audience that there were
more kinds than one and that success
could be gained by most anyone going
after it in the right way.
The last address for the day WAS de-
ilvered by Rev. Fr. +. j. Cullinane, who
spoke of the farmers of yesterday COM
pared with the farmers of today, the
advantages and opportunities Of each
ana how used. lie mentioned the in.
terestlng fact Of the numberless foreign.
Prs That were coming into our country,
taking up land and becoming farmers.
They are hardworking, industrious
lot and his opinion is that the majority
)f farmers OF tomorrow will be foreign
els. Fr. Culllnane closed the session
Dy prayer, and most satisfactory Far
merS' Institute was ended.
