Printed Chiffon Semi-Evening Gown
 Must Look Simple and Not Pretentious
One Creation Brought Out is in Green Red Black and Gold and Is Daring Experiment for
 Any One.

If you are thinking Of having an in- eApensice little semi-even1ng gown the sort which will do for dances, theater going and informa1 dinners to not consider a printed chiffon. For if one tries to save muney in the
 making of that frock it will not De smart. Above all, such a frock must look simple and not more prerentious than a model of Paquin's,r in white, with blue dotted veil-pattern design.
 The skirt, in side-pleated printed chiffon, has a white front but both sections have white hems, headed with dark blue. The pleated plain chiffon front falls from under blue and white outlined marrow, oval tablicr which at the waist line, Is overlapped ty band of cerulean blue Inoire rib non starting as flat, encircling collar for the neck and crossing on n>the chest. The ribbon drops to the hips on either side of the skirt, only to be caugt up to the waist line at the back. This use of cerulean with dark blue and white'is genuinely French. e- @'
 Generously bloused is the printed chiffon bodice, whose front squared neck is outlined in harmony with the tablier, and whose long shoulders fall like loose, flaring caps upon white chiffon elbow sleeves. Circular cuffs in blue chiffon on these sleeves are novel detail making for simplicity of effect. They are applied to the edges, and must fit those edges accurately.

Ernest F. Jores, the tneater organist, has most suitab ble and appropriate musical program ar ranged which he will render in his own and artistic manner. Several single reel coniediess ares slated to be texclusive of the i stellar attra ction which will give diversity to the offer ing.

KEENEY
 ACTS ARE OF BEST

With d capacity audience for the matinee and another full house for tonight expected, the mana cement of keeney'S has reason to be satisfied with the success of Fast Day at the popular playhouse. The various acts are so uniformly good that patrons of the theater regard the show in it's entirety as one of the best that has been offered in many weeks.
 All the acts are light but, neverthe- less very entertaining. They are of type calculated to soothe the nerves of the tired business man" and give real pleasure to people seek ing brief relaxation from the cares of the day. The show is we'll worth sec ing. It has many strong features and there is nothing surprising about the manner in which it appeals to nov- city seeking public.
 ! The headliner, furnished by May Ward the @Dresde1i dolf Hconfedienne, is a verys fascinating number. Miss Ward is an old favorite in New Bri- tain.a She has some very captivat- ing .inanrierisms andA,is a singer and dancer of extraordinary talents. Her act goes big everywhere. rf The Lawrence brothers furnish Ia good Hebrew act, injecting some good comedy and lively singing into their work. The Comedy duo does several sensational things on the spring board and Jack Marks, the. English juggler, entertains with a number of new. and clever tricks. &
 An interesting motion picture pro- gram is promised for tonight. !.

BRIGHT COMEDY IN
 NEXT LYCEUM PLAY

The tuneful music and bright com edy of The Man Who Owns Broad way go to make up the best musical comedy produced on the American stage in years and next week the Lyceum whR1 presented by the Ly- ceum Players it will have all the at tention to detail expected of an eX- elusive musical comedy company. The Players are now rehearsing with the special players secured by the man agement for this production.

Green, Red, Black ana Gold in
 Cheruit Model

Green, Red, Black ana Gold in
 Cheruit Model.
 Cheruit has brought out a creation in green, red, black and gold which would be a daring experiment on the part of any one but Cheriut. Almost wholly yelling a black chiffon under dress is an overskirt in green chiffon, printed with red figures. This exuber- ance, however, is restrained by black faille Girdle, dropped low about the hips and carelessly knotted at left of back. ,. ....
 Gold embroideries embellish a black chiffon bolero, whose fronts join under two rows of gold knobs. But the severity of this coat is ve1led by two overlapping printed chiffon ruffles. The upper ruffle forms a short collar g across the high necked back and upon the V of the bolero's front, while the longer one extends to the waist line, where its ends join at rront-center. From this viewpoint the lower ruffle which is crossing the shoulders, veils the tops of the narrow, long, self fabric sleeves, forming a very deep cape effect below the waist line in back.
 Less daring, and consequently less difficult to achieve, are certain fetch ing models in palest tones of mauye pink and lemon chiffon. So faint is the printed figure of the pattern that it becomes all but a blur against the foundation of the gown. These are not inexpensive gowns, because all chiffons of this class are of finest quality; nor are they easily made up.

POLLY OF THE CIRCUS
 IS A SIMPLE PLAY

It has often been said that the won derful appeal made by Polly of the Circus Frederic Thompson's produc- tion which will be seen at Polls Hart ford theater all next week, is based upon simplicity and unspoiled un- sophistication. Its story is simplic- ity itself while the characters it serves to introduce are of the every day, human sort of whom every one knows and therefore sympathizes with in their troubles and laughs with in their merry moments. Of the story little need be said because it is known to many theatergoers. Suffice it to say that Polly :s circus rider who has been injured while the circus is performing in a smaE town. She is taken to a, minister's home where his relatives bring her back to normal health and strength. A natural love springs up between Polly and the min ister, but when gossiping neighbors tell the girl of the position she places the minister in by remaining at his household she leaves and returns to the circus. A few weeks later the circus again plays in the village and this time the minister claims Polly, never again to let her go.
 Manager Thatcher has conceived some original ideas not included even in the original production which will quite likely meet with as great ap- proval as have many of the previous ones since he assumed the manage ment of the theatcr and made it so immensely popular. He has engaged a troupe of European acrobats to take part in the circus scenes.
