PLAYS AND PLAYERS
POLES THEATRE

The Poh Players are scoring g. tri- uTnpflant success this week in their presentation of Quincy Adams Saw by critics for the past ten e. years as the puTeSt and sweetest New England drama ever written. The characters town but so natural that they stand out in broad contrast to the usual dra- natic cnaracterss
 { There is nothing sensational nor blending of quaint humor and simple philosophy with just enough heart in- terest to make it dramatic.
 The story concerns a young lawyer comes to the country and holds in thrall the feminine folks of the sec tion. He meets a pretty girl named Alice Pettingill. who is fast becoming blind and sends for a, friend of his a noted eye doctor, who finally suc- ceeds in restoring her sight. Many other kind acts such as this place him in the good graces of these simple people and form a highly entertaining vein of interest in the story of the play. But this is not the only love story in the play. There are six full fedged love stories going on. and it is hard to judge which is the more amusing. but all agree that the TO- nance of Mrs. Crowley cThe Irish An gseD and Abner Stiles is humorous enough to make smiles wrinkle the fla ces of the most hardened of theatre gOers.
 By popular req uest the Poli Players have chosen a revival of the famous drama 'HSt. Elmo as their offering for next week. The play was produced here about three years ago and scored such a phenomenal success that the management has been beseiged with requests for a revival of the play, hence the announcement of it's presen- tation next week. The popular com pany will be cast in excellent roles which will serve as an acid test of HE1eir ability. 1.-The play Is taken from the widely read novel of the same name by Augusta J. Evans and follows the book closely It has been greet ed by large and enthusiastic audiences wherever it has been played by stock companies up to this time and a rec ord week is expected.

tSpecld1 to 1He dfn1eIl
 Stratford, Sept. 25-That the interest l taken in the condition of the public schools by the women of the Equal Franchise League has not been fruit less is demonstrated by the fact that rules have been put in operation hay ion over the scholars At the Wash ington school since the committee of the Stratford league visited the school, scholars are not allowed to leave the pla ygrounds and run about in the woods and bushes that sl1r- round the place. This rule is being rigidly enforced and is due to the dis closures made by the women who made an investigation of the many stories circulated about the neighbor- hood, and which would never have school committee. At this school dis infectant has been furnished for the first time during long period, al though it has been frequently asked for by the janitor At the Center school the teachers have exercised a more extended supervision over their charges and have looked into their conduct while not in the school rooms. An attempt has been made to improve the moral tone of the whole body or scholars which was called for by the investigation It demonstrates that the influence of women in school mat ters may be quickly and easily felt.
 At present there are a number Of married women engaged as teacbers in the schools whose husbands are abundant able to support them, while graduates of the school here are com pelled to teach out of town because there is mo room for them here" It is asserted that teachers who are not known intimately in the town have better success than those who have been brought up and educated among the scholars whom they are afterwards called on to instruct. It would better the feeling of the people for the town toward the school management if the graduates of the high school were given a, chance to teach here at
