1 man of the meeting and he explained
 that its purpose was to discuss protec- 1 tion at railroad crossings. The rail l road committee desired continu ous protection at Main, Elm, East Main, 1 Church, Chestnut and Whiting streets. l MT. Landers explained that the com mittee did not wish to be arbitrary end to take the matter to the public utilities commission, but preferred to invite the railroad officials to air their views.
 MT. Bardo replied that the road ap- preciated this attitude. There are some trains on the main line running through the city, he said. but there is no traffic on the Berlin branch after midnight other than a switching engine. He said the company would willingly give twenty ur-hour pro- lection at the Main, Elm and East Main street crossings.
 The switching feature is the very worst, in the opinion of MT. Hum phrey. He said he has occasion to use the Church street crossing late at night frequently and has found it dangerous proposition. Several times he has nearly been run down by freight cars being shifted he said. It is easy enough to see a locomotive but 1t is not so ecsy to see freight car drifting down on vehicles or pedes- trians.,
 we can extend the hours at Church street if conditions justify it." said MT. Bardo when the situation had been explained to him.
 Stanley Street Crossing.
 Mayor Quigley spoke as the cham pion of the Stanley street crossing which he considers an extremely dan gerous spot. Stanley street is being used more and more a trunk line for autoists and has only eighteen hours crossing service. There have been numerous fatalities and serious accidents thore, Mayor Quigley said.
 MT. Bardo said if Stanley street needs protection, it shall have it.
 South Street Crossing.
 MT. Landers brought up the South street crossing where he said, no protection Is given.
 The committee would be satisfied with day protection there. MT. Bar do suggested 8 bell at the crossing and this suggestion was acceptable. MT. Bardo said he would prefer bell to a watchman at a crossing where there Is little railroad traffic, as the being only human, might go to sleep.
 Whiting Street Switching.
 Chairman Landers brought up 8 resolution praying that the railroad be enjoined from using Whiting street for switching. MT. Bardo and the other railroad men agreed that con- ditions could be remedied to some extent and minimize any danger while the street is being used.
 Judge Cooper urged that the gate man at the East Main street crossing be instructed to keep his gates in perpendicular position when they are not down.

THATCHER TO PLAY
 ROLE AT POLES

It was announced at Polls theater laat evening that Managing Director James Thatcher Of the Poli theaters in Hartford and Washington will play thc name part in the rural production, x. Quincy Adams Sawyer at the per- 7fprmances here Saturday afternoon isnd evening In this he scored one cf the successes Of his career as aIl actor.
 Mir. Thatcher played this part, which he created, for eight years con- Eecutive years. forty weeks each year, q total Of 3,s40 performances. Inci- t.entally. it Is necessary for Quincy Adams Sawyer to kiss u girl twenty times during each performance, it it fell to the lot of MT. Thatcher to go through this act something like 75,000 times during his association with the piece.
 The Poli Players in Quincy Adams Eawyer' opened the week yesterday with an ideal hot weather show. It has just enough plot to keep the over heated brain interested. without be- coming entirely vaporized, doses of ,athos large enough to make the au- dience forget it's last nigat's mus quito bites and so much clean, whole some fun and comedy that the specta- tors soon forget all their other cares.
 The show Is almost as much spec tacle as a play, especially in the big scenes Of the last two acts and the third act in which an old-fashioned huskins bee is depicted with rural comedy, both conscious and uncon- scious. and all the picturesqueness of old- fashioned New England farm life.

THE CHRISTIAN
 HAS GOOD CAST

The attraction at Fox's for the last three days of this week will be the Nitagraph company's production of Hall Gaines superb love story ''The Christian" in eight acts md 300 scenes. An all star cast of Vitagraph players is headed by Miss Edith sStor- ey and MT. Earle Williams. The Christian" as novel was a great success. Later, it was drainatized and it brought fame and wealth to Miss Viola Allen. It's present form Is its best, inasmuch as tho talky aia- logue of the novel and drama have been elcminated and the many scenes which were omitted in the stage ver- sio are utilized in the picturized version Miss Edith Storey assumes the difri- cult role of Glory Quayle, Investing it with youthful abandon and ina- ture understanding seemingly imp,s- sible to register on the screen. sne

Americanization Day to Replace Fourth
 of July Advocated by Women of Nation
Hold Celebration That Will reeach Out to Our Immi- grants and Keep America from Being to them
 Land of Broken Promises. #..
(By Doris Fl F1eischman in New York
 i Tribune.)

tBy Doris Fl F1eischman in New York
 The bonfire, or safe and sane Fourth cf July is gone, and in It's place we ere to have, Americanization Day. "Americanizhtion Day for every city in the nation" say the huge placards which are to be posted throughout the country by the Americanization Day committee, which has seen a very old problem in a very new light fr
 The problem is the problem of the immigrant who fearsomely enters our gate, who becomes an American citi- zen without icasting ofr his nationality. Hitherto we have been prone to re- gard the immigrant as the imported worker. We have considered him as the man who is to keep our factories going and dig our trenches" explained Mrs. Clifford Pinchot, wno. as one of the chief members of this new conn nlittee voiced the sentiments which have led tq the translating of "the Declaration 'of Independence into a new declaration of citizenship"
 Not Merely Workers.
 Immigrants are not merely work CTS They are humans, who are to become citizens, and citizenship granted entails more than the fling of naturalization papers and giving power to vote. What was 1t that led to our exclusion of the Chinese from California? Merely that regard of immigrants which made us see in them only an economic factor.
 What to do with the immigrant It is a problem which We have ludi- la INI somewhat for the children, but in this halfway method of educating and Americanizing the children We have done infinite harm to the child. to the father and particularly to the mother.
 Americanization Days Aim.
 "And that is what Americanization Day aims to do. We want to teach the parents of the little children wfonl the school iS teaching what American citizenship means that they, too, have definite stand to take in this country They will be urged to learn the English language, they will be urged to study civics and will be in troduced to immigrants from other nations and to native born citizens and taught that the term American stands for one definite thing-that 1t is not ca pablo of taking on chameleon hues. Italians. Germans, Russians, Scandi- naviar1s and Dutch will learn that differences of extraction are iilusoTy in this country"
 V Immigrant women have been utter k neglected by this government. True, men have not been approached definitely, but their work outside the home has sharpened their wits. Their necessity has made them learn some what of the English language, and contact with American institutions of ene sort or another has forced them to at least fragmentary acquaintance with the land in which they have St tiled.
 Women Are Disappointed.
 .'But what of the Women?" asks Mrs. Pinchot. They settle in their homes The high cost or living, the strenuous labor stultifies them. Most of them do not know that they are in
