FEATURE AT FOX'S

Two great seven-part features, with
an unusually good background of
shorter subjects will constitute the
extraordinary program to be offered at
FoX's theater tomorrow and Thursday
And the stars of the show could not
be improved, for William Farnum,
universally hailed as the most popular
dramatic actor ON stage or screen, will
be seen in his gigantic hit, "A Tale Of
Two Cities, and that internationally
famous pair, Francis Bushman and
Beverly Bayne are to appear in their
newest triumph, RED, White, and
Blue Blood, a ripping tale of ad-
venture, love, romance and thrills.
Explanation of the merits of such stars
in unnecessary, and their presence in
these pictures is in itself a sufficient
guarantee of perfection. There will be
a number Of other films, comedies and
weeklies to complete the show. There
will be no increase in prices.

oh BOY PLEASES
PARSONS AUDIENCE
Musical Comedy Makes Good I'm.
preston on Opening Night

Real musical comedy, with much
good music and rapid fire comedy
that is a summary of "Oh Boy which
opened a weeks engagement at Par
sons theater, Hartford, last night.
While there are a number of weak
whole provided more than two hours
of entertainment to an enthusiastic
crowded house last night.
By far the leading character of the
cast is Miss Helen Shipman, the COM
edienne. Why Miss Shipman is not
playing Broadway at the head of her
own company is difficult to under
stand. She is the life of the comedy
and it is not until She makes her en-
trance as a desperate woman es-
Gaping from the police that the show
prightens up.
In a few words ooh Boy is the
story of a young chap in love with the
daughter of a society leader who
knows nothing of gay affairs taking
place after 9 p. IN. They are mar
ried in the first act, a decided novel
ty, and their efforts to secure the con-
sent of the girls mother to their "en-
gagement'' provide situations that af-
ford plenty of fun. George Budd, the
groom, is played by Charles Compton
md Lou Ellen Carter, the girl, by
irene Haisman.
Joseph Allen, as Constable Simms,
continues to pave his way to success
with laughs. Allen has appeared in a
number of other comedies in which
his work has contrasted favorably
with the leading comedians of the
stage and his efforts in ''Oh Boy" are
UP to his usual standard.
New Britain people in the audience
reco gnized an old friend in Mrs
Adelaide Hubbard, whose work as a
member of the Alfred Cross Players
at the Lyceum theater is one of the
pleasant memories connected with
those entertainers. Mrs. Hubbard is
perfect in her role of Miss Penelope
Budd, a Quakeress maiden lady, who
gets ice water and BRONX cocktails
mixed and decides that water is not
of much use anyway.
Others deserving notice are Jack
Rafael, as Judge Daniel Carter; Stel-
la st. Audrie, his wife; Jack oster-
man, a club waiter: and Harold Crane
as Jim Marvin, a club man.

WELCOME FOR
LYCEUM VAUDEVILLE

Four huge audiences yesterday gave
testimony to the established belief
that New Britain will patronize vaude-
Vile of the proper sort, for at that
number Of performances at the Ly-
ceum theater, the building was packed
to the roof, every Granny and corner
being occupied by satisfied patron.
Yesterday was a wonderful day de-
spite the weather, and pedestrians who
happened to be in the vicinity Of
Main and West Main streets at GER
tain hours will say that it must have
been at least novel to judge by the
lines of persons who waited for an
opportunity to get in to view the first
vaudeville bill presented by the Ly-
ceum management.
Although the first show started at 2
o'clock. there was an amazingly long
line of waiting persons at an hour
before that time, anxious to reach thef
box office. The line extended from
the box office down West Main street,
around the corner and well up Main
street The best part of this incident
is that everyone was satisfied with
what he or she saw after the wait,
so no one has a kick coming; the
management is thankful, appreciative
and glad; those who were present at
any of the performances are singing
the praises Of the theater and waiting
until Thursday for change of bill,
that they might again be present.
Yesterday presented delicious pre-
d1cament, l. e., trying to find room
for everybody. The announceme
that vaudeville will be the program
must have reached every theater-Iover

though everybody was there. At the
first show even the top gallery was
packed, with the other floors holding
their capacity. Then the second show
was put on and there was not one
whit of slack. The third show came
and they piled in even more rapidly;
the fourth and last show played to
almost as big an audience as the first
Anyone who could not get in yester-
day will have to wait until Wednes-
day to see the bill, because the theater
closes today on orders from the fuel
commissioner. Thursday will bring
new bill for three days stay.
Taking yesterdays show on it's mer-
its, there is no wonder the crowds at
tended. The show was worth fighting
for. Barlow and Deerie, two girls
and piano, the Hanamura Japs, pre-
senting an acrobatic act staged mag
nif1cently, and the Burlington Four
performing their antics at the Hokem-
Vile grocery store were the perform
ers. To tell Of the excellence of each
and every act would be laborious. so
many good points would have to be
discussed, but suffice to say that the
bill entertained and pleased. VIII

Who Is This Peddler Who Bcgs So
Poorly?

IOOfiy.
[ looked around my room search
ingly, thoughtfully, trying to discover
the best hiding place for the impor-
tant paper / carried in the back of
the trick wrist watch Lillian had
provided.
The wrist watch Dicky had given
me which had no room in it's back
for secreting even anything SO thin
as the rice paper upon which my
father had written his message, lay
upon my dressing table. 1t must be
upon my wrist when Dicky reaches
home, only one hour away. I did
not dare risk the casual inspection
which his propensity for examining
watches or delicate machinery of
any kind might lead him to bestow
Upon the one I wore.
It would be an easy matter to dis
pose of the trick watch. Any box
in my locked trunk would serve for
it's keeping until l should need it
again. My anxiety concerned the
paper it contained, which my ia
tner's urgent message and Lillian's
anxiety had shown me to be a most
important document.
I went over all my small posses
sions hurriedly, trying to find any
thing of the proper size to hold the
precious paper, and yet be easily
secreted either about my person or
in some absolutely undiscoverable
place in my room.
Katie's knock sounded upon my
door as I was about to give up the
search in despair.

Katie's voice was low and hurried

the reason for her subdued manner
as I saw her glance furtively at the
door behind which Cousin Agatha

she stands in wholesome awe of her.
I realized that she instinctively felt

me rise from my seat and to follow
Katie down the stairs. Ordinarily I
would have given the girl a coin and
told her to give it to the mendicant,
together with such food as she could
cather together. But one of the un-
accountable impulses [ have always
found it safe to follow seemed to
beckon me forward.
Katie's comment, ''He look jooS
awful" was certainly justified. This
was my mental comment as [ sur
veyed the man at the door. He hadn't
been shaved for several days, his
clothing was Of the most nondescript
character, and his hair was a tangled
mass of gray wisps, over which an
old hat was damned down. There
we're deep lines on his face, too,
which to a casual glance told of suf-

curious things during the never-to-

and Katherine to the cafe where we
