The Battle Cry of Peace Coming to
 DaVis Theatre.

The Battle Cry of Peace or The In- Vasion of America will come to the Davis theatre next week. This mas sive film spectacle deals with a sub. ject particularly timely at the pres ent period of unrest as to the security of the country in the face of a possi- ble embodiment in war, a threatening position that should awake in every patriotic heart, the most stirring in- citement to rally to the protection of her industries, people, homes and honor. As a promoter of propaganda, the most singular thing about the film drama is that the truths are presented to the spectator without in the least lending the impression that any effort is being made to impress other than through the powerful interest of the story itself. For it is a story of power and expressing appeal with we'll con nected thread, and so dressed with spectacular envelopment that wonder succeeds wonder, and all are enthrall- ed with that most inspiring appeal, the love of country, and all the time the truths are being thrust home with most incisive force until at the end the realization is forced home that the title The Battle Cry of Peace means more than a catchword. That is the efficacy of the motion picture in it's most elevated state, and stamps this as the greatest film spectacle of all time. Two performances will be given daily at 2 and p. m.,. and seats will go on sale Friday, all seats being re- served

NEW RIDERS WILL
 BE SEEN TO-DAY.
Boston Sends Grand Circuit Racer to
 Fair Grounds Meet.

Today is bound to be a red letter day in the annals of Connecticut, Rhode Island and Massachusetts motorcycling. The eighth race meet of the Connecti- cut Amusement association, to start at track at East Great Plain, will have riders-that c. V. Pandleton, Jr, hard worker for the success of the motorcycle races of the past four sea- sons, has been able to collect in the principal cities of the three states.
 Boston is to send Noble R. Stevis one of the best men on a motorcycle that ever raced on the mile track of the grand circuit at Readville, and also Earl Cove, a worlds record holder and a man seldom beaten in the five, seven and ten mile events on the big tracks in the east.
 Two more new men are John NaylonI of Rochester, N. Y, and D. J. Duck worth of New Bedford, Mass. Both are understood to be extra speedy.
 The cash bonus offered for a new track record is bound to get out about all the good ones at Norwich today. Each man will go his mile alone, mo- body to chase ahead, nobody to dodge behind, and somebody will set a low mark. The management feels sure of that.
 Before the start for the grounds Tubbs' band will give the customary short concert on Wauregan corner, commencing about 1.30. The first race will be called at on the dot The fun card should take about two hours
