question will be passed on at once,
as much confusion would result
from attempts to to piecemeal
work.
Countries having several bounda-
ries under question would endeavor
to make up on one frontier what is
denied them on another. All boun-
daries will be passed on and become
part of the peace treaty. At least
they will be generally outlined, but
it may be necessary to leave minor
details to the technical commission
which will make surveys and investi-
cations.
Neutrals Limited to Conference.
An invitation has been sent to all
the neutral nations in Europe. Asia
and South America, asking them to
attend a private and unofficial con-
ference here Thursday, March 20,
with the object of giving neutrals an
opportunity to express their views
on the league of nations. The in
vitation was sent by the conference
authorities to the ministers of the
neutral powers in Paris, and they
have forwarded it to their govern
ments.
Switzerland has already replied
favorably to the suggestion. No
South American governments have
yet answered.
A strong sentiment is developing
in high quarters of the conference
towards making Geneva the official
seat of the league of nations. Several
of the heads Of delegations who have
been consulted have given their ap-
provai.

Especial, mo longer will It be

money in an effort TO induce
farmers to build silos, if reports
from local dry farmers are to be

Those who have had the te-

thy of special mention. Miss Dentler is just gfrlish enough to make an excellent bride and MT. Chatterdon as the groom has opportunities galore for droH comedy. Miss Mabel Griffith as the heartbroken mother of the bride is excellent, and Arthur Grif- fen, as the father is at his best. Maxwell Driscon as the irascib1e fla ther of the groom is good and Miss Florence Hill the new ingenue walks right into the hearts of the Lyric pa irons. Charles D. Brown, as the burglar-minister who performs the ceremony and Jack McGrath, the as- sistant burglar, both do excellent work, as does Melaije Gordon as the hotel maid.
 Next week the Players will present another Imaginable comedy, "A Regu- lar Feller," which is new to Bridge port but comes announced as a cor ker. MT. Chatterdon is given free play to his talents and those who know him are able to anticipate what is in store for them.

 Her notes come from her chest,'' this gentleman facetiously observed. Miss Flanders was too deeply inter ested to catch the note of fun. She protested.

POId'S.


 This is the last chance to see "The f1rirn Game" with Houdini, the hand cuff king, as it's star. The picture, which is the sensation of the theatri- cal year, ends its engagement at Po- lis this evening, along with Fatty Ar buckles new winner, ''The Hayseed," !" and an all-star vaudeville bill.
 f"The Grim Game' was written by Arthur Reeves, who became famous for his Detective Craig Kennedy" stories some time ago. Houdini's movie, however, is genuine mas terpiece and is easily the best thing A--. it's line ever produced. It is a mat ter of regret that Polls was unable to hold 1t for full weeks run, as it has created no end of comment.
 The picture is laden down with thrills---not the old, hackneyed stuff. none of it faked, either. The specta- cle of Houdini clanbering up the side of a building; and of leaping over a roof in a straight jacket will not be quickly forgotten. Neither will the sensational crash of the two airplanes in mid-air, with the bodies hurtling to the ground.
 Mcclellan and Carson put over the best act of the season. Sahara '' It's the name of a desert, and Me Lellan's dry humor certainly fits in present a dainty singing act with a with the title. Wilbur Mack & Go. sprinkle of clever comedy dialogue. Viola Lewis and the two youngsters who assist her are 14-karat jazz ba- bies'' ahd have enough pep to keep things whizzing at a fast clip. LES trange Sisters are vocalists of eNcep- tional ability, and Joe Schuyler opens the show with a fancy lariat turn.
 ArbuckIe in "The Hayseed'' has the seasons fun classic. It's the first time this movie has been seen here, and it's scream all the way through.
 There will be a complete change of bill beginning tomorrow.
