CECIL SPOONER'S
 ADMIRER WRITES
 VERSE ABOUT HER

The following clipping from the New York World will be of great in- terest to the many friends of Miss Cecil Spooner, the popular little star of th4 Park theatre Spooner Stock Company, who are much of the same opinion as the poet expressed in his verse. The article is headed, The Poet Likes Cecil" and the article is as Follows: ''E. C.. X., although he is an ardent admirer lof Cecil Spooner, has written a poem about her and sent 1t to this department for publication. We, too, admire Miss Spomer, and yet we feel that she should be permitted to read the poem in order that she may handle the poets case herself. The contri- button is headed TO Cecil Spooner.' Now let's see what E. G. x. has written. as it is a golden tribute: There are many lovely heroines in history.
 While art with woman's beauty does abound,
 and mystery,
 'Twixt fction's magic pages may be found,
 But every grace of feature. voice or
 action -r
 In song or story. drama or the
 dance, Lives in one exquisite person, Cecil, the Queen of Romance"
 The above brief tribute is but one of the many which the popular little star occasionally receives, but it plainly proves that Cecil Spooner's popularity is not on the wane. Stage receptions will be held today, also Saturday, after the matinee perform ances, to which everybody is invited to personally meet Miss Spooner and her company.
The Bridgeport evening farmer., 1916-07-26

Cecil Spooner is producing St. Ell mo-" this week, before the largest au- diences this popular star has appeared before during her Bridgeport season, which is now in it's 18th successful week.
 Aside from the fact that "St. Elmo is the accepted romance of the last decade, either in book or play form, it is still on record that there is some- thing unusual about its general con- struction which grows on ones imag- ination, and dwells there. Too much praise cannot be given Miss Spooner and her supporting company, which was greatly enlarged for this impos- ing revival. while the scenic produc- ton Is spectacular surprise. in fact the general equipment for "St. Elmo is one of the finest ever witnessed in the city of Bridgeport.
 As to the cast again, it is com niendable, and commands general ap- pfoval, just such as it receives this week. Cecil Spooner herself, as ssEcdna. Earl,p is d dramatic treat, and this wonderful little artiste delights her most ardent admirers throughout the entire performances.
 L raayer, particularly in the line of characters such as "St. Elmo Murray is a delight, in somewhat difficult part Harold salter as Clinton All sfon," registered another emphatic Int, and proves his caiiber as an. actor Of the highest standard. Edna May spooner as Mrs Murray" gives a sweetly pathetic performance. and as usual, Frederick Clayton and Reta yiIlers, in, two truly rurar' charac- ters supply lots of laughter.
 {. Little Marion Melrose has a fine part as Little Hu1dah," and is one q the hits of the perfo rms nee. Clyde Armstrong, as the "Rev. Allen Ham nSond's gives a dignifled portrayal and Russell Bingham. Helen Nelson. and ' Joe Kennedy. make individual hits. EAfter the matinee on Wednesday end Saturday. reception will be held on the stage. All are cordially in-

the amazing strength and agility of these beasts.
 During the performance of the Spars Shows a group of these mon- ster animals will be turned loose in the. great steel enclosure in full view of the audience. Herr Brunner will enter this enclosure. unarmed, and put these lions through some astonish- ing performances. 1t is the most thrilling act of the kind ever seen and will never be forgotten by the be- holder.
 Like every other act and feature presented with The Sparks Shows it is far away from and superior to any thing of the kind, ever, seen before. There are numerous other trained anil mal acts in which tigers, leopards. hyenas, tremendous elephants, etc, will obey the commands of their fear less masters.

Theoretically the boys ought to marry the girl who writes the beauti- full essay on Browning's poetry, or else the one who took the prize in the cookery class. but actually the one who dances the best seems to be preferred.

Crocodile Tears.

The expression crocodile tears" can
be found in almost every European
language, but it is doubtful II one In
a thousand Of those who use it has
an idea of its origin. We are told in
the Bestiary of Guillaume lie Clerc that
when the crocodile finds an unwary
traveller it devours him, but afterward
weeps over him all the rest Of Its life.
This is very evidently the allusion in
"Othello," Each drop she falls would
prove a crocodile"
There is another version Of the fable.
however, which Is more often referred
to In literature and according to which
the crocodile sheds tears In order to
allure the traveller to destruction.
Shakespeare alludes to this in the pas
sage where he tells how
The mournfu crocodile
With sorrow snares relenting passengers.
