DETAILS OF A BIG CITY WILLIAM FOX. PR RoDUCT,ON
FOX,'S TONIGHT

Here is a thriller for fair, and if the episodes to come have as much action as the opening one, then we are, in deed, in for some hair-raising stunts. The story is Western one, with cow boys, outlaws, hold-ups and every thing that goes to make an exciting serial Another of the beautiful Priznla pictures was also shown and made a decided impression. The beauty of these natural-color pictures is almost indescribable. A funny L-KO comedy rounded out the picture program, and the vaudeville included The Three Gyros in a thrilling aerial act that had the audiences on edge by the sensationalism of the turn. The Braminos scored a decided hit with their European novelty musical act. Thorndyl1e and Curran pleased with their comedy singing and talking skit, 'The New Recruit" One mem Der of the turn has a good voice and uses it to advantage. The Three Rus sell Sisters present a scenic dancing and posing speciality replete with sur prises, especially the Hawaiian num- Der that makes the boys sit up and take notice. There are five beautiful sets Of scenery, many pretty lighting effects and changes of costumes ga lore. The Jamisons presented a high class comedy turn concluding with 8 rural 'burlesque that caught the house. The entire performance will be re- peated today and Wednesday,
 Thursdays program will be of the surprise order and will include some surprising headline names.
 On Sunday another big double feature bill will be seen Reserved seats are now selling for all evening performances excepting Saturday. The box-office is open daily from F noon till 9:3o o'clock at night

HOUSEHOLD SUGGESTIONS

To keep cheese from getting dry wrap in a cloth wet in vinegar To take an ink stain out of the l table cloth spread with hot tallow 1 Let dry
 ] When darning a. large hole. sew net over the hole and darn throueh ! the net.
 Asparagus and shrimps, narinat- ed With French dressing make a de- licious salad. If apples are thoroughly washed and cored before cooking they need not be peeled. Thorough greasing with lard pro- vents the cork of the mucilage bottle from sticking. A box of boraX beside the sink will save it's price in soap. Use a paint brush with long bristlcs tor sweeping stairs The work is
 more quickly and thoroughly done. as the prlstles reach every corner and crack as Q cloth cannot do. To clean bean pots, fill with cold water, add large tablespoonful of soda. and put in the oven for half a day. No securing will be necessary and the pot will feel like new. Cut glass can be cleaned best with a brush.
 When washing dishes, if you put 0 towel or piece of cloth in the dish drainer it will prevent the dishes from becoming nicked
 Never wash a sieve with soap: am
 monia will clean it with the aid of brush.
 To clean the refrigerator, when white spots appear take all the food out and rub the zinc lining with kerosene. Leave the top and door open for several hours, then wash with soap and ammonia in warm water. Dry thoroughly and the re- frigerator will be sweet and clean.
 Make paper tunnels out of pieces of wrapping paper and use them for pouring sugar, tea, coffee, cereals, etc, into their proper receptacles. These are very useful in preventing waste.
 When the corlxs slip into salt and pepper shakers a small piece of court plaster will serve the purpose of a cork and it can be washed oft easily when the shakers need to be refilled.
 To keep the stove radiontly bright keep a piece of hard soap in the backing dish. After wetting the daub- CT, rub lightly over the soap before putting in blaclxing; or in liquid bla cking dissolve a tablespoonful of hard soap in a very little water and thin backing with it.

changes her mind and follows him. The house he enters is the Penn ber tons. She also enters and attempts to argue him out of if. They are sur prised by the police. Spike escapes but Molly is arrested. She refuses to talk as her story will cause her sister 10 be known. It is Jerry who comes to the rescue. He finds Spike and thrashes him in one of the most glor- ious fights ever seen on the screen. The police break in and capture Spike who then confesses his part in the robbery. Spike goes to prison and the menace of the sisters happiness ia forever removed. Pitfalls of a Big City is presented with skill, the melo dramatic story is we'll knit, and it's characters are the kind that excite appeal or warrant the intensest kind of hate. Highly seasoned action is the main dish all the way through.
 F'ON'S vaudeville is headlnGd by the Seven Musical Spillcrs, easily the best aggregation of musicians in vaudeville today. For synCopated melody, their equals have never been seen locally. and the antics of the drummer arc bizarre enough to elicit. wild applause from the most sedatc audience. Gar field and Smith offer a very neat and exceedingly hum orous singing and talking act. Lillian Ronair. a daint1 songster. and Edward Hill. a eiftnG crayon artist in an original offerine 9, complete the bill

TsYCEUM THEATER.

! William $. Hart, star supreme Tn Western dramas, whose latest DIG ture tBreed of Men," will be seen at
 tho Lyceum theater on Thursday, has the reputation of being a dead shot
 with the revolver or any sort of fire
 arm. There are many interesting s
 features about this picture which are
 declared to be real novelties. One
 particularly effective scene is that wherein "Bill' Hart, in the role of a Westerner who has a passion for gam bling loses his roll and his horse and is, in the parlance of the COW
 country, ''broke and afoot." How the hero of the story succeeds in rightin g wrongs to which he has been an in- nocent accomplice-a tool in the hands of 9 sharper-and wins the love of a worthy girl, form, it is asserted, one of the strongest plots that the virile star has ever had MT. Hart always excels in role wherein he is seen as a daredevil of the open coun- try, and this is described as just such 8 part-one with plenty of speed, red blood and that desirable quality known as pep" The star is his own director. Seena Owen, who plays the leading feminine role of Ruth Eel lows in "Breed of Men, is one Of the most accomplished as well as attrac- tive of screen actresses. The charm of her ingenious manner and her consummate artistry place her in the preferred List of leading women. Her role in Mr. Hart's new picture is an extremely effective one and fully as attractive as the part she played in Branding Broadway"
 For Thursday very large vaude- ville bill has been carefully chosen and it promises to be one of the best that has yet been shown in New Britain

THE REWARDS OF WORK" "

Assuming that in everyone there is an infinite and restless desire to get into the life of tho world-to share any and all life that is hot and urgent or cool and clear-we can tackle thlS infinite task in two ways:
 By trying to understand the uni- verse in the samples of it which come into our ken and to draw from these bits a knowledge which typAes ana represents the whole. That IS science.
 By trying to serve. When we try to serve the world Cor to understahd it) we touch what is divine. We get our dignity, our courage, our Joy Tn work because Of the greatness or the far-off end, always in sight always attainable never at any moment at tained. Service is one of the ways by which a tiny insect like one of us can get a job on the whole universe. If we find the job where we can be of use, we are hitched to the star of the world, and move with it.

THE MAGIC IN \ NEST.

(By Melicent Humason Lee, New
 Britain, Conn.,, from the Guide to
 Nature."D
 If one may not sally forth into the fields, one may remain at home and picture to himself the surroundings of 9 bird nest as though he had been in the open all day.
 Bring one a nest after the occu- pants have flown, and test ones knowledge and ones imagination. The thrasher nest for instance. What composes it?
 Lining of slender rootlets, body of grapevine tendrils, twigs and inner bark of cedar. leaves of oak, red nSa- pie and birch, gresses-root some times attached, stalks of pearly ever 1 lasting, stalks of sumach, twigs of l birch. winding whips of dewberry. 1 Immediately to the mind comes the l impression of the locality in which the 1 thrasher dwelt:
 Clusters of birch and solitary cedarr -cedars which hint of barberry and juniper; staghorn sumacs thickly in terspersed, suggesting a hillside. and, aye; very near white pines there; grasses root pulled, eh? Sandy soil. Vines of dewberry, stalks of pearly everlasting-plants which often grow among steeple bush, wild roses. red and yellow clover, asters, golden rod and daisies. m ........
 Grapevine tendrilS-Surely tangle of luxurious stream-fed plants nearby.
 One irnagines then sunny slope 'overhung with brilliant skies, and one wonders, perhaps. what wild life thrives therein.
 Hot fields, habitat of the field spar row, long fine grasses for her nest; field mice and snakes. for enemies are always prevalent; young oak growth ever a canopy for the gay chewinks and birches, haunt of the thrasher Creatures of the earth, all these, Tor therein lies their food.
 In the thicket beyond, from which the grapevine tendril was snatched, probably creeps the black and white warbler, for tall trees must rise in such a sight: the chestnut sided waro- Ter. who hunts the passing mosquito; the chickadees ever dangling from the boughs; the vireo teasing insects of the air; the wood becker. birds of the trees and spaces in between for therein lies their fooo
 And so, one's mind may picture the sheltered nest of a bird, the trees wherein the nest was built, until ones fancy runs like a. nursery rhyme, and there is no end tot.

Now Just let me tell you som ething If you want me to make any spell to- morrow you'll just go ahead and write it off You know all the dope about what I've been doing anyway and you ought to be happy writing me out a nice little piece to speak.
 You'd better get busy, for l give you notice right now I'm not going to- bother fixing anything up myself"
 / l managed a nasty "Oh, all right
 beat a quick retreat to my room, for there was time to lose if I suc- cessfully carried to a conclusion this unexpected task. But my heart was hot with indignation for Dicky's lack of consideration in waiting until this last night to give me the work.
 The Last Straw.
 r had no doubt of my ability to write the simple talk which he was
 to deliver to the pupils, for I was, as
 he had said, familiar with the saga of his adventures, and because of my long experience in teaching I was ! also skilled in the phraseology which would hold the attention of school children. But the time was so short, , and I had so wished to get a good, long sleep that I might be fresh and at my best at the Stockbridge recep- ton. However, there was no use in wasting time in vain request. I pulled out my typewriter and set to work, rejoicing in the memory which made it unnecessary for me to apply to Dicky for confirmation of the details of the story.
 It was three hours later when I rose from my chair, numbed and ner- vously tense, and gathered the finished sheets together. I had not heard Dicky come upstairs to his room, and so went down to the library, where I found him stretched luxuriously on the couch, reading by the shader light adjusted to his con- veuience He looked up lazlly as l entered. Hello! Thought you went to bed hours ago." 1 He evidently had forgotten all about !, our controversy of the early evening. I silently laid the little pile of manu- ! script before him.
 What the dev-oh, the speech! i We'll what do you know about that?'
 He sat up took the manuscript and
  burst into explosive laughter.
 By George This is a scream" he gurgled.
 what is the matter with it?' I asked jelly.
 Nothing, except that it's about the finest little example of what real he-man would NOT say that I ever came across. I think I see myself spouting this! Nay, nay, Miss Pro- lessor, as a lady lecturer you're no doubt a peach, but as a writer of speeches for" An officer and 8 gentleman, in- terrupted freezingly, although I was af1ame inside. "Yes, I admit that I made a mistake both in the type of speech and man. Pardon me, please" I snatched the manuscript from his hands before he knew what in tended doing, tore the sheets once from top to bottom, dropped them emptuously to the floor, and turn ing, went out of the room.
