NORWICH TOWN
Rev. Herbert J. WycI<off and Choir Provide Inspiring Service at Shelt- ering Arms - Fenton-Jordan En- gaeement Announced-Mrs. An thony's 9oth Birthday.

The Sunday afternoon service at the Sheltering Arms was conducted by Rev. H. J. Wyckoff of the Second Congregational church, assisted by the choir, Mrs. George T. Lord, Miss Jes- sic Clifford, Walter Krohn, Archibald Mitchell, 4th, with Miss Louise Fuller at the piano. Among the hymns sung at the opening of the service was, There is Sunshine in My Soul, which is g. favorite with members of the household.
 Rev. MT. Wyckoff took for the sub ject of his address the Sun-dial. The construction of the sun-diaI requires such accurate work that it's making is beyond most of us, he said An infinite amount of time and pains and work, God has put into the making of man. The light of His love shines on Us even as the sun upon the dial. As the sun-dial is set right by the north star so every life should be guided by the Star of Bethlehem to Christ. Keep this life of ours as God meant it to be kept The life found eded on Christ can never be shaken, can never be moved. As the sun-dial must be in the light of the sun all the day, we must keep ourselves in the radiance that comes from God Himself Little by, little our faults, discourag genents and sorrows are swept away and we come out of our weakness into Gods great strength.
 In the anthem, There Are Lonely Hearts to Cherish, Miss Jessie Clifford took the solo part and the beauty of the refrain, While the Days Are Go- ing By, was felt as the choir took They That Wait Upon the Lord Shall Renew Their Strength, was beautiful ly rendered, each voice bringing out impressively the power of the words.

COLONIAL THEATRE.
"The Flying Freisht's Captive" Haz-
 ards of Helen, Today.

The next feature in the Colonial's biggest railroad series, is entitled The Flying Freight's Captive, a sensation al event in the Hazards of Helen. In this film, Helen, the courageous tel egraph- operator, in her effort to locate thieves who have been operating on trains of her line, is detected by them, and bound hand and foot and carried to an empty box car standing on the siding where she is made prisoner on the train. By a clever ruse. she se- cures the revolver from the watch ing criminal, and holding him at bay, jumps from the now-rapidly moving train. Later she is instrumental in the capture of the whole band of rob- bers. The Girl He Brought Home, is the delightful home-romance that ap- peals to all, other films being The Green Cat, Vitagraph, with Billy Quirk, In His Fathers Footsteps, a wonderful story of the farm. and When the Fates Spin, a delightful Essanay feature with Bryant Wasi2burn. To- morrow is The Vanishing of Olive, from Olives Opportunities by Mrs. Wilson Woodrow.

 Being a producer of the modern school, the older managers are often amazed at the enormous outlay, and the high salaries MT. F'razee will pay, to attain the results he desires.
 His determination to present quality, regardless of cost, is fast placing him at the head of the school of modern producers. Being one of the few who will not commercialize his art, and resort to claptrap, or. sensational fea- lures, makes attractions by both the atre managers and the better class of actors
 His lavish expenditure, in producing A Pair of Sizes that has been run ming more than seven months in New York, and will be presented here Fri day, March 18th, established a new scale of completeness and efficiency in farcical productions.

America's Dependence Upon Europe
 for Opera.


 And opera singers are given de- cided setback by the war. We have just as good singers as Europe-and are fast developing men to write operas for them to sing.
 The Boston English Opera com pany which comes to the Davis the atre Tuesday, March 23rd, is doing wonderful things and showing the American public how foolish is the demand for opera in languages you cannot understand.
 Once this country gets entirely over the notion that a Made in Europe label is necessary, it will get better opera, more enjoyable opera-and opera at sane prices.
 Let us lay aside our prejudice once and for all and be true Americans in music and art, as we are in commerce. Prices 25c to $1.50. Seats on sale Saturday at 10 a. m. Mail orders &C., ssnfAd now,

ODE TO THE BRAVE.

How sleep the brave, who sink, to rest, By all their country's wishes blest!
 When Spring. with dewy fingers cold Returns to deck their hallowed mould. She there shall dress a sweeter sod Than Fancys feet have ever trod.
 By Fairy hands their kneu is rung, By forms unseen their dirge is sung! There Honor comes, a pilgrim. gray; TO bless the turf that wraps their clay. And Freedom shall a while repair.
 To dwell a weeping hermit there!
