CLUB SWINGING
 GOOD AT KEENEY'S

A decided novelty in club swinging and juggling is presented by the May belle Fonda troupe as one of the lead : ing attractions at Keeny's this week and it. is creating quite a stir among local vaudeville devotees. There are four expert Indian club manipulators in this act. Two of them are young ladies, possessing as much skill as their male associates, and they give an exhibition that excells anything in the club juggling line ever seen in this city. They throw the clubs at each other with great sw1ftness and the manner in which they catch them rarely making it necessary to score a miss, Is remarkable. The act Is one of the best specialties of it's kind ever presented in this section.
 Charles l.. Mcdonald and company in "The Great Question" seem to be tavorites every day. They provide the seasons dram atic treat and their efforts apparently are not unappre- ciated. There is a big moral lesson to this story. It concerns the closing of Barbary Coast, San Franciscos S famous "red light district. The piece is cleverly written and the story Is told in 8 fashion that causes no offense. It is we'll acted by the com pany.
 Gene Gomez continues to fool 'em with his clever makeup and his eX- ceptional skill as a female imper- senator. Gene really looks like perfect lady" and carries out the de- ception without any difficulty
 The Vacation Girls, under the leadership of Jack Noble and Willie Landers, present the musical tabloid "A Trip Down the Harbor" as thi: weeks headliner. It is an entertain ing piece and the company presents it in admirable fashion. There are, seven young ladies in the aggregation and they add much to the enjoyment of the piece. The comedy work is of a high order and the musical selec- tions arc well rendered. The act IS beautifully staged.
 The Laverines and their dog, "Honey' also find favor for their amusing speciality.
 The Pathe weekly will be among tte motion pictures shown tonight.

NEXT LYCEUM PLAY
 IDEAL ATTRACTION

The management of the Lyccum Players has selected "The Girl in the Taxi'' to be the next attraction at the Lyceum, opening next Monday evening. Tn this offering the man agement has a fine comedy bill, one that is sure to please and an ideal attraction to follow this weeks great popular hit. "The Girl in the Taxi Is from the facile pens of Anthony Mars and Stanislaus Strange, an" played to long stands on BroadWa> and In other metropolitan centers. Garter DeHaven originated in the first production in the character Ur Betri Stewart scoring one of his greatest hits. He played opposite Miss Grace Walton in the character of Mile. Irma, "The girl" Throughout the three acts there are series of we'll connected dramatic incidents that awaken a keen interest and are great laugh provokers on account of the originality displayed in the sequence of the delightful complications. The story is very cleverly told. In offer ing this attraction the management gives its assurance of a production of artistic merit. The living room at the Stewart nome and the private dim ing room at Churchilrs offer oppor- tunEties for reproductions of scenery for a most pleasing background for this excellent show. Since the advent of spring weather conditions the num- Der of automobile theater parties has 8 ride to the theater be- fore and home at the conclusion be- ing most enjoyable.
 On Sunday evening the mana cement offers eight reels of classic photo drama, presenting the stars of the screen in most popular and entertain ing series.

Girls and small women will be surt to welcome this frock. 1t is the smartest of all things for linen, for rsque, for epongt and the like and it is really perfect to ust for serge, for gabardine and similar ma terials of the earlier season. It takes thu newest and smartest lines; it is eminently simple and youthful and altogether is a, good model as could be found. As it i. shown here, it is made with high .collal and long sleeves and with little trim ming that gives just suggestion of. the prevailing military thought, but in one o the small views, the square neck is sug gested and shorter sleeves, both of whict will be quite correct for summer wear There is three-piece skirt and a per fectly plain simple long -waisted blouse which are joined beneath wide belt. The sleeves are of the set-in sort, in one piece each.
 For the 1o year size will be required 6as yds. of material 27 in. wide, 58 yds 3e, .3Y yds. A. with ss yd. 27, for the trimming.

SEE JESS WILLARD
 AT FOX'S THIS WEEK

Commencing with tcdays matinee and which will be shown for the balance of the week, New Britain theatergoers will have the pleasure of seeing Jss Willard, the conquerer of Jack Johnson, and the new heavy weight champion of the world Tn action. Jess Willard, is the man of the hour, and is now playing a weeks engagement at mmerstein's, new York, in a newly arranged vaude- vile skit, and reports have 1t that thousands are turned away at each performance.
 While New Britain cannot have the pleasure of seeing Jess Willard in real flesh and blood, they will have the express delight in seeing him in moving pictures. Several hundred feet of this film were taken at the Fairmont club in New Tork, during the progress of one of Willard $ battles, and it shows his remarkable development to a nicety. F'ox's for the balance of the week will play to capacity audiences, and it would be wise to come early and be comfortably seated.

STORY
 IN NEXT FOX FILM

The second of the great Betty Nan sen made in America series now being filmed for the Fox Film corporation, William Fox, president, shows Miss Nansen in q more powerful chara ization than in which hereto fore been seen in this country or in Europe. Anna karenina, Count Leo Tolstoi's masterful analysis of a Woman's soul which will be shown at FoX's commencing tomorrow af- fords Miss Nansen a far greater op- rortunity than did even The Cele- brated Scandal" to display to the full her wonderful dramatic gifts. or the part itself, Miss Nansen says Anna is one of those women who are pre- ordained to lead lives that prove and try them as in sacrificial fires. She has been misjudged in much of the con- troVersial storm that has ragged about Tolstoi's book Being Anna Karen ina sho could not have done other than what she actually did. Had she trodden the straight and narrow path prescribed by convention. she would not have been Anna. Surrounded by the oppressive gloom and grandeur of a high Russian officials home, re- stricted in her very natural impulse, all her affectionate advances chacked by her Willed, impassive hus- band, a woman like Anna, would nat urally do as she did. Seek consola- tion elsewhere. And let me remark here that women in the position of Anna are by no means so uncommon as may be supposed. To each of them there is bound to come Price Vronsky." What happens then, de-
 
 great moral strength in reserve, not even her misery will permit her to wakn in hr marriag VOWS. Her heart may break, but she will remain un- flinchingly true to moral standard de- manded by modern society"

''iDu !unS has taffeta reigned su- preme as a fabric for afternoon street frocks." So say certain designers who cherish liking for faille, and in de- fence of their belief that cord woven silk is as pretty as the smooth sur faced they have turned out various models which aSsuredly speak ill their own behalf.
 That this material is a we'll chosen rival is shown in a model in Panama blue faille, whose skirt carries as much ruffling IS any in taffeta These ruffles, however, are produced in a more novel fashion. Somewhat below the knees is a single deep ruffle, which at first glance appears to be attached under cord heading. But a second examination proves that the trimming is merely the lower portion of the skirt restrained by a cord covered shirring, and that, at intervals, above this first line are two other shirrings designed to hold down the fulness of gores, which, even at the waist line are closely all of, the shirrings curve upward at the sides, giving the skirt an irregular outline.
 This is repeated in a pair of mar rover ruffles crossing the sides and back of the skirt and lending to the untrimmed front 8 tablier appearance. which is borne out by a short ruffle curve, as though outlining the base of a long pocket dropped over the left hip---a pocket, however which has no real existence, though it's mouth might well be concealed by the fastening of narrow belt in canary bead embroidery. The only ruffles on the blouse cross it's shoul- ders as though they were little frilly caps belonging to a sleeveless garment and not at all related to selt-material sleeves turned back from the wrists into cuffs Of elbow length and there banded with canary embroidery.
 A second yellow band trims a roll ing collar partly overshadowed by @ more outstanding one in white linen, and where the blouse is rounded low in front the space is filled by q square topped canary silk vcstee. A bunch of tiny lemons trims the Panama blue
