''Fine Feathers" which had its first presentation in New Britain at the Lyceum this week. is one of the best plays this city, in all its seasons of stock production, ever witnessed. In spite of the fact that 1t is a ''sure enough" drama, light vein of de- hehtful and comic episodes runs through 1t.
 X government chemist (Smythe Wallace) yields to the Temptations of a successful business man (Phiiip Quin) and his ambitious wife (Vir- ginia Perry) and betters his condi- ton by accepting bribes With the recklessness of the average wrong doer. he invests some of the ill-ac- quired sains in stocks and he soon finds himself at the end of his rope disxrace and prison his only outlook for the future.
 The members of the Walter Nay Tor players company were never seen to. better advantage and Margie Dow as a neighbcr, Victor Reecroft as 8 doctor and Ruth Miner as the hired girl have important opportunities. The staging of the four acts and the other accessoriea are valuable assets in making 4i1is weeks, play one to fbe. long remembsred by lovers of sood drama. 6sats Ifor tho remainder of the week ares on sale at the box ofiice.

SIDE TALKS
We Do the Same
BY RUTH CAMERON

Wc Can't Bcar Not to Be Thought
 Perfect.
 It Is funny. isn't 1t. how intensely we resent an imputation on the part of our friends that they do not think us altpgether perfect.
 We know they aren't perfect and we know, we aren't.
 And we'd know, if we ever stopped to think of 1t, that just as we talk over their little. iinperfections,- and still like them,--so they must some times talk over ours.--and still like us.
 We know all this in the abstract And yet when some thoughtful mu- tual friend brings the fact concretely to our attention. we (by we" mean that bundle of instincts and preju- dices. the average human being) fairly seethe with resentment.
 suppose that is inevitable.
 It is As natural to resent criticism

RED COATS" EVERYWHERE

1t is often said that the sun never
sets upon the British Empire. 1t
seems that the day god never sets
upon her heroic soldiers at present.
Wherever the tide of battle rolls in
Europe, Asia and Africa, British
troops are fighting against the Ger
man allies. In addition to the great
army on the western front, England
has sent soldiers to fight with the
Russo Roumanians on the eastern
front and with the Italians in the
southwestern theater of war. There
are other big British armies on the
Macedonian front, in Mesopotamla
(Turkey), Palestine and Africa.
English forces helped the Japanses
capture the German fortress of
Tsingtau, in China, in the early days
of the war.
