SCHOOL DAYS
At the Davis Theatre Today.

The remarkable outpouring of mu- sicaI comedy makes 1t a pretty safe proposition that this form of enter tainment will survive indefinitely and continue to charm, amuse and delight the average audience. composed of tneatregoers who believe in the play Eouse as a place where dull care is not known In the gigantic preparations made this season, the question of su- premacy seems to be the one most con- suited; it was who would get there with the largest, and superb produc- tiOn, who would present the most novel and attractive features, and what organization would contain the great eSt aggregation of pretty girls! The promoters of School Days. which will pay us visit today. matinee and night, at the Davis theatre, while taking into consideration the high importance of all these coumendabIe essentials were determined not to sacrifice the dra- Inatic status of their attraction by neglecting to supply a story of reason able intelligence. around which to shape the infusion . Of song and fun material in wholly consistent man. her; hence 8 plot. and a very excellent one, too, was first secured; then came the stringing together of such fea- lures as shou1 lend dignity and tone as well as afford the lzeenest possible enjoyment of the whole. How we'll this idea was developed and carried out in School Days is best told from the splendidly unanimous verdict rendered by the press everywhere. From such a source it is also learned that School Days is handsomely blessed with pret- ty girls who becominglY wear massive " exouisite gowns that were especially designed for this inviting musical com edy.
 Matinee at 2.s0: 55c to 75c. Evening S.16; 26c to S1. Secure your tickets early.

aLET MUSIC MAKE
 THE NEW YEAR HAPPY" Sentiment of the House of Marsh, Piano and Player Piano Dealers.

A Happy New Year to all. And what element can contribute more to the real happiness of the coming 12 months than the possession of 8 beau tiful. high grade piano or player piano in the home? In its big advertise nent today the House of Marsh says: Let music make the New Year happy. Surely that is a happy New @Y lear thought.
 Three months ago D. S. Marsh in augurated his great distribution of pianos and player pianos in this city. The proposition met with instanta- neous success. Not only was the vol ume of business highly gratifying to the management but the evidence of confidence on the part of the public of Norwich and vicinity which was displayed was even more sO-
 For half a century in New London and it's enVirons the name Of Marsh has been synonymous with all that is bes in the musical world. The House of Marsh has never broken faith. It's word is as good as it's bond and the latter is of financial char acter on a par with that of a bank.
 The great piano business founded by Mr. Marsh is in New London to stay and it Is in Norwich to stay also. The present quarters in the Carroll building have been found inadequate and in few days the wareroomS will be removed tc the fine new store in the Sunlight building. 46 Franklin street.
 Prior to removal. pianos and player pianos of makes known throughout the world will be offered at prices and on terms never before approached in fhis city, quality considered. To the person contemplating the purchase of an instrument of any kind, 8 visit to the Marsh store will prove a revela- tion. Such an opportunity will not occur again. It should be remembered that in dealing with this old and re- liable concern, there need be no hes itation as to possibility of inferior quality. Every instrument is backed by guarantee good as gold.
 Do not miss this great removal sale. Nothing like it was ever known in Norwich before. See the beautiful cases, hear the deep, rich tones, note the superiority of workmanship and then marvel at the business acumen which makes it possible to place these masterpieces of the manufacturer in the hands of the nusic-loving public at prices and on terms that defy com r1etitior.

 For the first time in many years, four appropriations bills have been disposed of in the house before the beginning of the new year in a short session. Immediately upon the pas sage of the postofTice measure work was begun upon the Indian appropri- ation bill.
 Under a special rule a large number of legislative propositions were in corporated in the post office bill on the recommendation of the postmas- ter general.
