he gained their assent and help, and was enabled to land unmolested, at Pevensey on the south coast of Eng land. On the 4th of October, 1O66- one of the great dates in history William of Normany crushed the power of Harold the Saxon King at the battle of Senlac or Hastings. On Christmas Day he was crowned at Westminster.
 The Norman invasion was of great benefit to England. It introduced the soft charm of the French language, and the gentler manners into the rough Saxon life. It opened the way to the long alliances-and to the long feuds-between England and France. We can see the effect today in the Allied" cause.
 The Battle of Hastings was fought on the site where tocay stands one of the celebrated and most venerable monuments in all England nd:-Battle Abbey. Battle Abbey, today a lordly residence, with its picturesque ruins and solemn cloisters was an abbey founded by William the Conqueror in fulfillment of a vow he made on the field of battle, of the Battle of Hast ings. The Abbey was under the rule, for centuries, of the Benedictine Or ter of Monks.

PRETTY STORY RUNS
THROUGH TODAY'S SHOW
"The Little Pink Deyil' IL a First
Class Entertainment Filled With
Laughter Producing Incidents.

The poet Pope says Every woman
has little devil In her composition.
II 1t is black devil, expect dark
schemes, deceit and vengeance. II II
is a red devil, domestic wars, scan
dal, stormy days and nights. If 1t is
blue devil, whining discomfort and
weary lawning. But If it be Pink
Devil, merriment and smiling pleasure
will be yours.
Has the Little Pink Devil story?
Story? Certainly 1t has story;
very ingenious, domesticl story of mar
ital trials, troubles, jealousies and the
ways to avoid them. The situations
are so continuously ludicrous, and the
laughter is so never-ending that it is
easily grasped at first hearing. You
can laugh uproariously and continu-
ally and solve problems at the same
time and you readily find that you
have enjoyed the most pleasant and
delightful feeling of rest and salts
faction for full many a moon. And
you let it 60 at that, and you are hap
py
Suppose we try to explain. A tired
business man, Mr.. Clinton Hyde, has
passed his life in perpetual business
struggle, has acquired handsome
fortune and sets his mind upon en-.
joying the remainder of his existence
to the fullest extent, and to sow his
wild oats too late to reap the conse.
quences.
With his wife and daughter he seeks
a popular seaside resort, where life
is inclined to be giddy, not to say
sporty. They meet there a young of.
ficer who has just returned from "ovel
there" and a very lively young lady
who directs the cabaret. And there is
where you begin to laugh and the
story melts into maze of whirling
legs, singing voices, and funny sur.
prises. That the jollity carries you
away and you just sit and laugh and
laugh and don't get chance to think
of the story and are ever so happy
to let it go at that Well what is the
story anyway? The story is that 6
large number of the best managers
have individually voiced for the pub
lie; THE best and cleanest show thai
has visited our theaters within thu
past two years and the loudest ap
,lause ever heard from our audi
ences." And that the soldiers at thu
amp theatres, sign and deliver {
round-robin saying; "The most pro
longed applause heard in our theatre.
