The show now appearing at the one from every angle. The feature picture '+The Probation Wife" with Norma TaImadge in the leading role is a very delightful photoplay It is picture with a real plot char acters that live, a star who is the best that can be had and an ex- cellent supporting cast. The story is about a girl who. having spent most of her life in Q fast cafe and two years in a reformatory, offers herself to a wealthy New Yorker in exchange for clothes and the luxur- ies of life. Much 10 her surprise, he marries her. She calls herself his probation wife. The term of proba- tion, however, does not last long when love enters their life.
 Monsieur AdoIphus, premier danc- CT from the Opera Comique Paris, assisted by Ethel Gilmore, premiere danseuse from Covent Garden Opera London and company interpreting classical music by the Art of Dance, offered a very entertaining program. Their dances were all different from others seen here and the audience was very appreciative of their act. The three girls are very graceruI Tn their different dances. Loney Has keu with a wealth of stories kept the audience in constant laughter
 Loney is always good and never fails to bring to Bridgeport an act that is worthy of his name. NcKinty Kids, are probably two of the best juvenile entertainers now appearing on the stage. Their songs and dances, also their character parts are very good. Jean and Babe Jackson in a novelty bicycle routine very clever and start ed the bill off with a bang. Gau- mont News and the Screen Magazine contained timely topics of interest.

LYRIC. (RGView.)

'The Correspondent" is an entirely new play with very unusual situa- tions, containing pathos, humor and heart interest, sure to please every lover of the drama. The theme throughout leads to one tense climax in the life of a young country girl who has literary ability and has proven herself successful as a news paper writer in the great city of New York, where her past is awakened through the divorce action of a wealthy and social family.
 For the first time since her ap- pearance here, Miss Alice Clements, PoH Players leading woman, was not present at the performance last night. Due to sudden illness, Miss Clements will undoubtedly be absent for the remainder of the week. Miss Helen Carew handled the leading part, the character of Anna Gray, splendidly and judging from the limited time allowed her in which to prepare the part, she is deserving of much praise.
 Walter Marshall, as Landon Van Kreel, as usual, played the part Of the william in his own inimitable way with mastery and precision. As his wife, a young society leader, Miss Mabel Griffith did fine work and showed her capability as a versatile actress. Clay Clement had the part of the managing editor of "The News" where Anna Gray is a re- porter.
 The scenes in the newspaper office deal with excitement and importance of obtaining the name of the core spondent in the divorce story of the Van KreeI couple. Anna Gray IS as- signed to obtain the name and she discovers during tense and exciting situations that she was named the correspondent The action then leads to the gripping climax which involves the decision Of the young re- porter in disclosing the name.
 Every lover of the dramatic will find the play this week at the Lyric theatre interesting and appealing.

CINEMA BREVITIES

When Donald Crisp returned from g. trip to the South Seas and else where, he wore a bristling beard that gave him a decidedly bandit like appearance. Immediately the various members of the staff who were destitute of hirsute adornment began to develop mustaches, boards, etc. Then MT. Crisp appeared one morning cleanly shaven and cherub- jc in appearance. That afternoon, the cameraman, assistant director and others presented a similar free dom from every vestige of beard or mustache. They always endeavor to emulate their handsome director" observed MT. Crisp humorously.
