Captain Jack Leffel and Madame
DAlmer, who have been battling the
large audiences at Keeney's this week.
Captain Jack Leffel performs some
remarkable shots at the target and
also does some difficult object shoot
ing from rs assistants mouth and
head. But the shot that has them
all guessing is when he evidently
shoots a bullet through the Iady's .
body, shattering a light of window '
glass directly behind her. He requests
anyone to come on the stage from the
audience to examine rifle and bullet
and then performs the shot to the
establishment of all. Dorothy Phillips

OFFICIAL WAR FILMS
AT FOX'S TUESDAY

Those who have been accustomed
to passing their hours of recreation
on the past three Tuesdays in wish
ing it was Wednesday, will be glad
to hear that there will be entertain
ment for them in New Britain on
next Tuesday. The management Of
Fox's theater has given the use of
the popular playhouse for that day
to the Connecticut State Council of
Defense, which has arranged for a
special showing of the only official
British and United States war motion
pictures brought here direct from
the western front An extraordinary
feature of the entertainment is that
the pictures are accompanied by
lecturer, who is mono other than
Sergeant J. 3. Pimlott, of the British
CheShlre regiment, the body which
was SO effective in driving back the
Germans at Vimy Ridge. Sergeant
Pimlott's one ambition is to get back
in the front line trenches, but as he
was blown fifty feet by an exploding
shell, and wounded so severely that
he is incapacitated for further serv-
ice, he is giving his time to the
allied cause by telling the American
public the truth about what he has
SEEN and what our own boys are now
experiencing. The regular prices Of
admission will be charged for the en-
tertainment but the total receipts will
be turned over Immediately to tho
United States government, by the
connecticut State Council of Defense.
The matinee performance will start
at $50, and the evening at 8 o'clock.
