PLAZA

ssIn the Palace of the King one of The most marvellous photoplay specta- kIes of the season, the production or Which required the services of 5000 persons, 2,00O horses and hundreds of Costumes and special scenic Settings, IS being shown in six acts as one of Ehe Plaza's big attractions for the lat Ter half of the week. The story is a most delightful one. It is a romance bf old Madrid and the unique realism Df the entire piece tends to take one put of modernity for a time at least to the historical settings of Madrid with It's royalty, grandees and court ladies 1t is a wonderful picture and will un- doubtedly prove one of the biggest drawing cards of the season at the Plaza
 The vaudeville program is unusually pleasing and well balanced and is headed by sKidland," a miniature nut sfcaI comedy with seven clever young people in the cast New song mum bers novel dances and many funny comedy quips are offered and every-i thing is put over-in a manner that could not fail to please. Special scenic equipment and many pretty costumes are displayed.
 The Two Kerns in their original talking and acrobatic offering entitled Returning From the Fair were an other big hit. The Two Kerns are An- ished performers and their aerobatic work is quite extraordinary, while the ..rube'' dialogue they present is very amusing
 Another splendid kit was staged by Moore & Jenkins, a. pair of colored en- tertainers who certainly can wiggle- their feet as well as put over comedy songs in manner that won them in stant favor at yesterdays perform ances.
 Valentine Vox gave an exhibition of ventriloquial skill that has not been equalled locally in many months. MT. Nox is possessed of wonderful talent in this line and he gives highly fin- ished and artistic performance. He was greatly appreciated.
 The remainder of the bill included Fair, Fat and Saucy,s' and '.A Ro- nance of Old California

POLPS

A yitally appealing vaudeville and spicture program is shown at the Poli Ftheatr0 beginning Thursday after moon. Many Broadway feature acts Shave been brought to Bridgeport by khe management with five-reel pho Aoplay of dramatic interest that holds svvith expectancy until the final scene Df The Little Gypsy is shown.
 The vaudevilIian offering is headed by an excruciatingly funny farce en- Titled "Eetting Her Rights in which music and dancing predominate with lst mere man and suffrage characters. Tt is frightened materially by the ad- gdftion of a handsome chorus
 Anna Chandler, the girl who made such hit in Londan, has returned nvfth elocution and gestures that greatly aid the wonderful personal Appeal that she puts into many clever and specially designed songs. The Audience rose to her catchy perform Rnce.
 -swhen We Grow Up'.' a p1aylet of the country and city in two scenes Shows with startling truth the di- ,Aersity of the country-bred girl upon inaents in the metropolis. The dialogue is light and airy and found favor with all.
 John O Mallcy, whose voice has been highly commented upon by operatic critics, displayed a vocal power and diversity of selection that will do much towards helping him attain his eventual operatic attainment
 The Balkans, whose wierd instru- mentality is wonderfully complete in 6he opening spot on the big bill re- Eeived we'll deserved recognition and will not fail to entertain during the rest of the week.

AMERICA FIRST

The Department of the Interior, through-tts Bureau of Education, has issued a Autographed poster, 80 by 20 inches in size, which is being sent to the various post offices, public schools, and industrial establishments of the country, urging immigrants to educate themselves for American citi- zenship.
 Tn the foreground of the poster Uncle Sam is represented as grasp ing the hand of an immigrant work ingman, while in the background is seen a residence, a public school, and a naturalization judge handing tciti- zen's papers to an immigrant
 Under the bold-faced title, "Ameri- ca First" are urgent invitations to attend night school, learn English, and become citizens. These invita- tions, with brief sentences setting forth the advantages of such action, are given in English and in six inn migrant languages, viz: Italian, Polish, Yiddish. Lithuanian, Bohem- ian, and Hungarian.
 Investigation has shown that there are in this country S,00O,0OO foreign born whites, 10 years and over, who are unable to read or even speak English. More than one-half of these immigrants are unable to read or write in any language.
 As the posters will be hung in con spicuous places it is to be hoped that by means of this pictorial and writ ten invitation immigrants will have their attention called to the night schools of their communities; and that where there is any considerable number of immigrants and no night schools the poster may inspire the authorities in these communities to establish such schools. This is a part of a more comprehensive plan for preparing immigrants for American life and citizenship.

Congress will be urged by President
Wilson to concentrate its attention
upon the administration national de-
tense program Immediately after the
Christmas holidays. While the presi-
dent has no desire to see the pre-
paredness plans rushed through with
out full consideration and debate, he
is most anxious to have the army and
navy bills disposed of as promptly as
possible. He not only believes it is
essential to put the war and navy de-
partments in position to begin work
on their new programs without delay,
but wants the congressional calendars
cleared for general legislation later in
the winter.

PRESIDENTS MEXICAN POLICY

Whether or not the "quadruple en-
tente," which it is runored the re-
public Of Argentine will propose, to
be composed of itself, the United
States, Chile and Brazil, is worthy of
consideration or not, it is to be noted
that it remained for Woodrow VIII
sens democratic administration to
gain the confidence of the South Am
orleans sufficiently for such a sugges-
tion to be offered. Mr.. Root, when he
was secretary Of state, made the
grand tour of South American and
President Roosevelt INDUCED in vol
luminous and boisterous protestations
of regard for the Spanish Americans
but it is the Mexican policy which the
republicans affect to contemn and de-
spise that has removed their suspic-
ion Of the yankees" These people
to the south of us who do not speak
our language and who have no partic-
ular reason TO understand US better
than they do the Europeans or to look
on US as their superiors in morals or
in methods of trade have apparently,
for the first time in more than half a
century, come to believe that the
United States has no selfish designs
on their property and their freedom.
If American merchants do not misuse
this newly established confidence it
will effect a tremendous expansion of
American commerce and at the same
time promote the political and social
advancement of all the lands of our
| Observation-Disclosures State.
Seems to the Star that the insults
to our nation, the murder of our peo-
pie and outrage of our women that
have gone on almost unchecked under
this administration is too big a price
to pay for any crop of greaser dollars
no matter how large.

that a Florida politician has impress

The State has slightly misunder-

them, so far as the Star knows, have
descended to the level of Billy Parker.
He is from another state, Pennsyl-
vania, we believe, and politics is a
more exalted occupation than what he
is following.

The Times Union tries to hold up
the nation of Israel as a horrible ex-
ample against preparedness. Can the
T.-U. name any nation of that era
which lived unless it was able to-
fight? AS long as the Israelites re-
manned one peonle and kept up their,
system of preparedness, they remain
ed nation, and very strong nation
for their numbers. When they split
into two rival and antagonistic peo-
pies and allowed their institutions to
decay, they became the vassals of
stronger nations. The T.-U. might
note that from the time the Israelites
came out of the wilderness to invade
Canaan until they had to succumb to
the Assyrians was a longer time than
from the settlement of jamestown
until today.

Following is the paragraph which
caused the paper of Macmillan Har-
den, the noted German socialist, to be
suppressed:
"Not one of our enemies is disarm-
ed. England, the strongest of the
lot, cannot even be considered badly
hurt by our blows. All our foes be-
lieve as honestly as any German that
victory will be theirs, and they are
determined to do everything to that
effect. This must evidently be war
of exhaustion. The human eye can
not fathom the end Of it. Nail these
ideas into every German BRAIN"

The st. Petersburg Times, in a well
worded article, essays to answer the
Suns contention that municipal
owned public utility plant never has
nor never will pay Clearwater Sun.
You might as well shut up, Powell.
Ocala has a municipal owned electric
plant that has paid ever since the city
bought it, decade and half ago.
And Ocala has the lowest rate for
current in Florida. 1t also has city
water plant, which is keeping even
and saving the people money. With
careful management, public-oWned
utilities are sure to pay. A pound of
practice is worth more than ton of
theory.

A few months ago, when German
submarines ceased their attacks on
ships around the British isles, some
people who should have known better
said it was owing to the notes sent to
Germany by the American govern
ment. The cessation was simply and
solely due to the fact that the British
navy made it SO hot for the German
subs that they had to give up their
campaign in those seas. In the wider
and more favorable waters of the
Mediterranean they laave resumed ii,
and unless the British navy obtains
