ADVICE TO BRIDEGROOMS.

It has come to be almost a tradi- ton that men give advice, not take it. A pleasant novelty appears in the January Good Housekeeping in the shape of pungent philosophy on the marriage questions, written by Dor
 othy Dix.
 De papers is full of heart-to-heart
 talks to wives bout how to keep
 youngy an wilIowy, so as to retain
 deir husbands affection, but dere
 ain't 8 word in 'em, from kiver to
 kiver, to men fbout how to keep de
 hair on deir haids an from gittin' to
 look lalc beer kegs on skds in order
 to preserve their wives love. An when gal is gwine to git mar .rled, her ma, an her married sisters, an her cousins, an her aunts takes her off to one side an des fills her up wid useful hints bout gittin off
 on de right foot, an striBin' her hus- ban for his pay envelope befo' he gifts well enough acquainted wtd her to dast to refuse her, an drawin' de line at mo dan one even1n' out a week, an de odder matters dat helps woman be de fust finger in her house. t.

EMPIRE

Sometime ago Bryant Washburn read splendid story in the Saturday Evening Post, and it impressed him greatly.
 There's story I want to do on the screen" said Bryant. enthusias- ticaIly. The result was that the Fa- nous Players-Lasky Corporation bought the picture rights from Ida M. Evans, the author, and under the title of 'HThe Way of Man With a Maid' the story will be seen as Washburn's Paramount starring ve- hicle, at the Empire0theatre today
 Ida M. Evans. the author, is a widely known writer who lives in Chicago. Several years ago she was engaged in the notions and millinery starting to write stories about the clerks and stenographers that she knew so well. The stories were un- usual in plot and development, but more than that, they became popular with a large number of readers
 Ida M. Evans has been compared to O. Henry in her original fresh way of handling story materi-. But really she has created stories Inat are distinctively her own and "The Way of Man With a Maid" is one of her best.

LYRIC

Manager George Arvine of the Lyric theatre will have his first opportunity since leaving the stage, where he was a leading man for many years, to again appear next week before an audience in a similar capacity. It isn't fat part nor is it anything like he once appeared in but it is the sort of part that really happens in Bridge port every day in the week. Manager Arv1ne will appear in the Imaginable comedy of local interest, Ut Happened In Bridgeport" which will be the at traction at the Lyric theatre twice daily next week. Not only does the manager appear as an actor but the treasurer superintendent, box office girls, in fact all attaches of the thea tre beautiful will make their bow be- fore the audiences
 In addition to this the management introduces the mysterious masked wo- man, La Belle Masque," the famous danseuse, who will appear everywhere in public wearing her famous mask La Belle Masque'' will offer spe- ctalty of two classic dances of Egyp- tian origin and besides will give everyone an opportunity Of winning the reward of $100 offered to those who can identity her. Another fea- ture is John Thorn, the silver voiced tenor, John McCormack's only living rival, who will sing several songs in his own ininitable way. The show next week is a distinct novelty and is being shown in Bridgeport for the first time.
 ! The final presentation of the fa- nous dramatic success, "A Fool There Was" will be given tonight. Those who have not secured reservation are advised to do so at once as there are only few choice seats left.
 For tomorrow night the manage. ment has arranged another popular double feature program in addition to the concert by the Lyric orchestra. The feature of the evening will be a picture by Pauline Fredertclz 1n, Res
 irTection,'' fone of her most famous l photoplays. In addition to this there will be comic fby Charlie Chaplin, the HearstrR Rathe yFeess1H eEzs Aasz

}. A, LEONARD AGAIN HEADS
 FIRE BOARD
Department Men to Build Chemical for No. 6 En-
 zine House.


 The Fire Board met last night at fire headquarters for reorganization. The meeting was opened with Mayor Wilson as the presiding officer. Com missioner John A. Leonard, who has been president of the board during his past term of office, was reelected president last night The nomina- ton of MT. Leonard was made by Commissioner John Cassidy. MT Leonard was elected unanimously.
 Laddernan William F. Foley of Truck 3 answered charges of neglect
 of duty preferred against him by Fire Chief Daniel E. Johnson. Foley pleaded guilty to the charges. Foley was on duty at headquarters on the night of Dec. 24, at which time he called 5S4 instead of box 535, which was the correct number. Foley was fined four days pay.
 President Leonard has called meeting of the Fire Board for Wed resday night, Jan. 15, at which time Richard Elwood and Charles J. Tully. members of the department, will ap- pear before the board to answer to charges preferred against them by Chief Johnson. One man failed to answer an alarm during his hours of duty, and the other absented himself without leave from duty. It was thought that these men would be heard last night, but as they had not received the six days notice requir, 1 ed, the hearing on their cases was set 1 fCT the above date
 t,Fo | Honor that an item of $3,50O in the
 1919 budget was for repairs for a l chemical which will be placed in ] No. 6 engine house for the purpose | of answering alarms on the East l Side. MT. Leonard stated that this l chemical will be built on a chassis by l the men of the department and will ! be placed in front of the above house l and manned by the truck crew of 1 that station.
 l If an alarm is sounded the crews l will use the larger apparatus. The 1 president stated for some time it has 1 been thought that there should be 6 ] chemical on the East Side to answer i to still alarms, as a present No. 1 | chemical has to answer alarms in the center and east of the Pequonnock 1 river which means that this crew is being overworked. Mayor Wilson ex- ! pressed himself as being of the opin- ion that this item should be allowed. A. Seven new men were appointed to fill vacancies at the meeting las, night The men were unanimously elected to the department, and were: Adolph Jacchia, 172 Davenport St
 Harry W. LilI. 756 Grand St.; Joseph
 J. Dean, Sylvan avenue; John J 1 Rohrbach, Smith street; Fred H
 Schraeder, .46S Logan street; vlncent
 J. Benham. 51e Myrtle avenue and William Nolan, 486 Maple street
 The men were ordered to report
 for duty to Chief Johnson, January IT. The Chief was instructed tc
 place the men in different houses
 about the city where there are yacan.
 cies to be filled.
 Hoseman James H. Flynn, of No ;
