Stop! Look! Listen. One of the
greatest bills that have ever been Of
fered to the Bridgeport public will be
presented at the Plaza theatre the
first three days of this week, when
Charlie Chaplin in his famous second
million dollar picture, Shoulder
Arms" will be shown with an agggre-
CATION of the best acts that vaudeville
has to offer.
Charlie Chaplin has his own ideas
how to defeat the Huns, not only that
but he has his own ideas of how to
battle with the coolies and succeeds
in giving them more trouble than they
give him. OF course there's Char
lies famous feet to take care of and
there's plenty of chance to give them
their share of attention while he is
trying to learn the true art Of mill
tarism. In fact this picture is the
greatest of all comedies that have
ever been screened and can hardly be
afforded to be missed by any Bridge
porter.
Added to the big picture the world S
famous Boyarr company of talented
Russian singers and dancers will
commence their three days engagement
today and will present with a cast OF
ten people "a Scene at the Kremlin
of Moscow" Following them comes
Wood and Wyde, who are well known
in Bridgeport in their brand new orig
inal variety offering that will be q
score of joy to all fun lovers.
Rosomond and Dorothy, two charm.
ingly clever young girls will offer ex.
.ceptional singing and dancing spe
cialties that are right up to the mari
in excellence, and the big sensation
the Wonder Bears, who come direc
from the circus, will be added to thi
wonderful collection of acts. Thes
bears are numbered among the hes
trained animals in the country ant
will be of special interest to children
as well as elders.
An incompatible and inspiring wa
attraction, the Allies Official War re
view, the first run of the Cannon

and a two-reel O'Henry story will con
rlude the exceptional bill at the Plaz
theatre for the first three days c
This week.
Don't forget the big Charlie Char
lin picture will be shown four time
daily, twice in the afternoon at tw
o'clock and four o'clock and twice i

I.INCOLN'S WEDDING
ANNIVERSARY

Four dollars a week would hardly
be considered a lavish expenditure
for honeymoon for the newlyweds
of this day and age, yet Abraham Lin
coin and his bride, Mary Todd, found
that sum quite sufficient after their
marriage, which took place in SPRING
field, Ill, seventy-six years ago to-
day.
The love story of Abraham Lincoln
and Mary TODD is very interesting
one. Nobody, least of all Lincoln
himself, dreamed that the young at
| torney would become President of
the United States, and one of the
greatest names in American history
! There was violent opposition to the
match on the part of Mary Todds rel
atives, who based their objections on
Lincoln's extreme poverty en-,
| After the marriage ceremony the
young couple went directly to the
Globe Tavern, in Springfield. There
they spent their honeymoon, at cost
| of 81 a week for board and room for
the pair
Lincoln's bride was not the heroine
of his first romance. At an earlier
date he was engaged to Mary owens,
but they found later that they were
not made for one another" and so
agreed to a parting of their, ways.
Even before this, however, when
Lincoln was a clerk in a country
store, he had fallen in love with a
young girl named Ann Rutledge.
She had been engaged TO u farmer
who had Tilted her, but ABE" COM
forted her so effectively that she
transferred her affections to him.
Poor Ann Rutledge died, and the
heartbroken Abe swore that he would
be faithful to her memory, and would
never marry. He swore the same
oath a second time after his romance
with Mary Owens was blasted. In
a letter he wrote, II have now r"me
to the conclusion never again to
think of marrying"
Within a year after arriving at this
decision, Lincoln was paying marked
attention to Mary Todd, who, like
/ himself, was a native of Kentucky
= Even in this case the course of true
love was not entirely smooth. Some
| months before the marriage Mary
= Todd accused her affianced Of being
5 cold and Indifferent, and in a quarre
that followed the engagement wa!
s broken. That night Lincoln wrote Il
I a friend: 81 am now the most mis-
cradle man living, and if what I fee
t were equally distributed to the who'll
0 human family there would not be
= cheerful face on earth. Whether
s shall ever get better I cannot tell
r [ awfully forbode that shall not. T
d remain as am is impossible. I mus
s get better, or die" The quarrel wa
d soon patched. up, and on Nov. 4
S 1912, Mary Todd became Mrs. Abra

J. four dollar a week honeymoon.

WHY ADVERTISED
STORES SUCCEED

The advertised store gives the peo-
pie news in which the people are
interested. The closer an item of
fact comes to the personal affairs of
the people the more persons are in
terested in it. There are few items
in a newspaper that come closer
home to our daily life than an an
nouncement that a merchant has a
lot of goods which he can offer at
an unusually low price.
When you get a lot of people to
reading about a store and what it
is doing and offering, the same peo-
pie will soon be seen visiting that
store. The desire is so keen to avoid
the high prices, that any suggestion
of economies attracts a crowd.
A store that advertises bargains i'm
presses them as store where there
is life and motion and things doing.
So the advertised store is the we'll
filled store, and the well filled store
is the store that does a big business.

LYRIC

With a drama Of unusual merit on
the bill requiring an augmented cast
in addition to the regular company of
Poll Players this is destined to be the
banner week of the season at the
Lyric theater beginning with the
matinee this afternoon. "Outcast,"
which is billed for presentation has
been conceded by all who have seen
il as one of the best productions of
it's kind which have ever been offered
to a theater going public. The play
comprises four acts, each of which is
replete with action enough to make
an entire production lively, and there
are many startling situations which
will cause the most apathetic au-
dience to sit enthralled. throughout.
The story told is unusual and has
for it's theme a subject which has al
ways been of more or less interest to
the world, common law marriage. In
the words of the girl in the story:
marriage is more religious than just
human and is for good women only
but considerable doubt has been eX-
pressed on this point. The author OF
the production has handled the sub,
ject in a manner that is startling ant
are many startling situations which
overlooking with interest that will
cause the auditors to gasp for breath
| at the daring expressed.
"Outcast" is built on a foundation
| of Bohemian life in London. TIL
real outcast is a woman of the Londoi
streets, cheerful and somewhat phil
osophic and quite accomplishing. Sh
meets another, man, who also think
he is outcast because the girl he love,
has Tilted him. When the "outcast
meets him he is trying to go to tn
devil as fast as drink and drugs viii
send him, but the little girl of tn
streets gives him friendly advice an

tress. Before the end she falls deep

FUR TRIMMED DRESSES.

The fur idea for dress trimming is
coming out more and more as the
season advances. 1t is new and much
liked. Both narrow and wide bands
are used but the most interesting eff
fects are gained by the use of narrow
bands. Georgette, in navy, showing
an apron front and back drapery,
rounded and rather short, had three
bands of fur outlining the drape.
Again the dark fur appears on the
flowing three-quarters sleeve.
