.kt POETRY
THERE IS A FIELD IN FLANDERS

(Euract from a letter from the front. "I saw a few wind-howers the other day, and vast meadow full of king cups, and that was enough to make me happy for weeks. There is a field in Flanders
 Where yellow king cups stand; Like fair princesses clad in gold Their joyous court they proudly hold In the gay flower land There is a wood in Flanders, little shimmering wood, Where wind-fowers sway among tSe
 grass
 And smile upon you as you pass As country maidens should. D There Is bank in Flanders EF-~ Where ce1andines a-blow Lift up their shining heads. and peer To see their lovely image Clear In bright pool below. And you who go in English fields, o think not that our days Are wholly dark or wholly Ill, For there are flowers in Flanders still And still a God to praise.

Endorsed by the Knights of Colum- bus, and all Catholic, associations, the great feature picture, The Cross Bearer, will be shown for the last time in Norwich. at the Auditorium today. Everyone should see this won derful perfect photoplay.
 Coming Monday to the Auditorium is a wonderful picturization of Whit aker's Planter. The cost of produc- ton of The Planter new Mutual spe- cial production, was in excess of $250,- 900. The first scenario called for D. 900 scenes. It involved the services of more than 200 men and women.
 Tyrone Power, the star; Helen Reaume Bateman, leading woman: E. Lamar Johnstone. George R. O'Dell and Louis FitzRoy, who have been hard at work on the play in southern Mexico, have returned to Pasadena, Cal.
 One of the unusual features of this production is that the climax is sus- tained for two reels. The producers have been compelled to cut down hard, because the Herman Whitaker novel, from which The Planter was dramatized, is mass of action.
