PLAZA

My Four Years in Germany" the greatest of all modern patriotic film is still drawing large au- it is running a full weeks engage ment
 Probably no man in America had Ia better insight into German intrigue. and war policy than did Ambassador James W. Gerard, who, for four years represented America in Germany.
 He was kept there until the very last by the United States government. When the acts of the German military powers had transcended all bounds, then he was recalled.
 Ambassador Gerard knew Emperor Wilhelm. He knew every chancel Tor and every one of the military of |hcials. All practically are military in Germany, for the military ruled.
 Therefore the personal relations of Ambassador Gerard upon his return Ito this country were most significant and his book has attracted wide spread attention.
 Knowing that no way was left to have every American know the true spirit of German military powers but through the medium of the film, Am bassador Gerard in person appearaed in the photoplay and aided in its direction that every detail showr should be perfect and accurate ir |setting.
 The Kaiser is represented, ant every act of the German Imperia |government during the stay of MT Gerard in their country is graphical ly shown. There is plenty of op portuhity to see what the Raise thought of America, what he sait about our inability to make a fighting army, and the answer of America peaceful forces when it was necessar, to become a warlike nation to mak Liberty paramount upon the sea ant
 throughout all lands.

LYRIC

Laughs are following each other in such rapid succession that they re- semble one continuous roar of merrl- ment at the presentation of the won derful and decidedly humorous farce comedy, "The Unkissed Bride" now being presented at the Lyric theatre by the popular Polf Players all this week. Nothing like 1t has ever been seen by Bridgeport theatregoers and as one man expressed 1t, Tt will be long time before another such will come to this city" Although the puoduction contains a plot it is so deeply buried underneath a world of humor that a serious thought is fur thest away from those who are enjoy ing the play.
 "The Urnkissed Bride" is rightly named ''The funny play" for funny it is from beginning to end. The complicated situations into which the characters get themselves entangled and their ludicrous efforts to unravel the tangle are really funny without resorting at any time to anything suggestive or out of the ordinary to obtain a laugh. These are spontane- ous and any one who cannot laugh must indeed be out of sorts.
 The bedroom scene in the second act is the funniest thing that has ever 1 flowed from the pen of humorous author and the lines which accom- | pany the scene are simply a scream
 The efforts of the well meaning aunt, who tries to send the bride and groom to bed thinking they are really mar Tied when they are not brings forth l scream after scream of laughter. Ii is all goodnatured fun and there is
 not line or word throughout which
 can offend the most exacting. So far
 the attendance has been far beyond
 the expectations of the s4hguine man. | agement but judging from the ad- | vance applications for seats at the
 box office a banner week is expected Owing to the scare concerning Spanish influenza the nagement
 has taken every precaution to disin-
 feet the theatre after each perform
 ance and there is not the slightest
 danger of being attacked by anything
 except a fit of laughter which vii
 last for some time after the curtain
 falls.

WEST END

From a royal court in Belgium to an humble log cabin in the mountains of Tennessee is a far cry, but in "Out of Clear Sky" the new Paramount picture starring dainty Marguerite Clark, which will be shown ct the West End theatre tonight and tomor- row night, Celeste, Countess of Ber- sek, and Krymn, the beautiful hero- inc personated by Miss Clark, makes this transition with happy results
 When Celeste refuses to become a pawn of state and escapes to this country, she hides in the mountains of Tennessee where she is befriended by Robert Lawrence, personated by Thomas Mighan, and ultimately shakes off her pursuers and finds happiness in strong mans love. The story is a beautiful one, thrilling and decidedly appealing. It is based upon the novel of Maria Thompson Davies.
