For Vacation Camera
 Fiends

In these days there are few who in dulge in a vacation, who do not also indulge in a camera
 There are a few points which will help the vacation camera f1end.
 Cameras are subject to accident and to wear and tear. They should not he left about carelessly in the hot sun. on the beach, or where they are exposed to rain.
 If the camera chances to get a Wettlng in the lake~-or in a rain storm, 1t should be carefully dried With cloth, and set in a shady place -NOT in the sun--to dry If possi- hle to remove the Tense take it out and drop into a can of gasoline, or alco- hol, to prevent the mechanism from rusting
 Camera experts think it advisa ble to develop the films of vacation pie lures as soon as possible after they are made, instead of waiting several weeks for return to the city to have them developed. Films do not keen well when undevloped, especially in damp climates or if improperly pro- tected. If impractical to develop films at once provide little tin tubes to be sealed with adhesive tape. in
 
 In taking landscape views it is oft should remember that photographs made on a beach, where there is much light reflected from water. sky and pale sand require less exposure than the ordinary city or inland land scape.
 It is now possible to buy for the camera ray screen or color filter which makes it possible to photo graph interesting cloud effects, sun sets, etc. In a long distance land scape the effect of white clouds against blue sky greatly enhances the beauty of the picture.
 In taking landscape views ii S oft en a good plan to have a beautiful tree, a human figure, a boat, or some other point of interest in the fore ground to lend chara cter to a scene of a distant view. For instance a view of the sea is enhanced if it includes a sall-poat, and a picture of a beauti- ful road, or d valley is helped if there is a picturesque church tower or cottage in the foreground
 In vacation pictures avoid the com monplace scene or pose and try for the unusual picturesque and beautj full effects.

LYCEUM THEATER

Tonight the Cormican company Will be seen for the last time in Yes or NO, in which they have scored their most pronounced success and played to the record weeks business or the entire summer. At last nights performance hundreds were turned away, every scat and box was sold and in order to accommodate late corners the orchestra pit was filled with extra chairs, all of which were taken at 8 o'clock. A little surprise was in store for those in attendance last evening, when Mr. Cormican in his curtain speech announced that by spe- cia1 arrangement the season would be resumed one week from Monday and continued for at least two weeks longer. On that date, August IS, the players will present Cohan x Harris successful comedy, Ut Pays to AdVer- tise,' the play that ran a whole sea- son at the George M. Cohan theater and was toured throughout the coun- try from the Atlantic to the Pacific to capacity houses everywhere. It's du- thor is Roi Cooper Magrue who also is responsible for last seasons most enjoya ble comedy, '"Tea for Three," which succeeded in filling the Maxine Elliot theater from September to June and is now running in San Fran cisco. Tt Pays to Advertise is not a farce but a good clean comedy with several distinct and diverting charac- ters, most of them new to the stage.

SUNDAY AT THE PALACE.

Sunday night brings to the Palace 0 trio of famous photoplay stars in Charles Ray, Frank Keenan and Alma Rubens. Charles Ray and Frank eKe- nan are both in the dramatic produce ton Honor Thy Home' and sup ported wonderfully by Louise Glaum. The other star, Alma Rubens, is seen in Mans Country,' a forceful and spectacular drama of the primitive west in the days of '49 when men fought hard, women lived fast and human life was cheap. Other photo plays include a new episode of the Man of Night with William Dun can, also screaming comedies and others. All roads should lead to the Palace Sunday night because this is positively the best bill yet offered for Sunday nights entertainment in New Britain.

 After the Battle.

Orchard Inn, the Morning
 After the Battle. Dearest Joan:
 There have been many times in my life when I got angry and regretted what 1 said or did. There have been other times when l was too wildly angry to say anything. So I let the offense go unresented and unpunished. And later I regretted that, too.
 Tonight when I overheard those old cats discussing me on the porch I de- termined for once to administer the rebuke properly-that is, neither in uncomfortable anger nor in silent scorn.
 When l stepped through the French window and appeared before them, they stopped with their mouths ajar and stared. I recognized them, re- spectively, as a Well-to-do spinster, by name Hopkins, and a childless married woman, Mrs. Orwell, of the type who still wears false hair in great abundance and to whom much trimmed royal plush is the ideal cos tune, with wide -brimmed hat to match sitting high upon her head.
 "No-please do not go," I opened, dS IfiSy Dotii IldlI-IOSS ITOu1 tHelI rockers. T want to remind you that it is never safe to discuss upon a hotel porch the guests of that hotel" They reseated themselves, ey- changed glances, and closed their mouths.
 If I had not overheard you to- night. by tomorrow I should have been branded before everybody in this place as a girl of imm oral charac Nt-. ." How dare you" began Mrs Orwell.
 ,"Why, all we said was that we hadn't seen" started Miss Hopkins I snapped them both into silence with
 T heard exactly what you said. She has not come in at all tonight was one remark. You would have circulated that lie in the morning, and by noon-such is the proneness of people to accept islander without question: should have been tried, convicted and sentenced without a chance in my own defense"
 "You-you should avoid the ap- pearance of evil, Miss Variclk, if you do not wish to be misunderstood ,' from Mrs. Orwell.
 Certainly" echoed the spinster with the edges of her lips.
 ''The evil exists only in your own minds" I said steadily. You women who call yourselves moral commit more actual crimes than most of the people do from whom you draw your skirts aside in horror. You might not steal someone's purse, but you'd d
 
 stroy it without a qualm. Maybe you'd hesitate at murder, but any poor girl who made one false step would have with you as much chance to make a new life for herself as a sparrow in the claws of a hawk. You are hard, narrow, cruel women, both

of you, and your reward will be utter friendlessness. For no one can have friends without being a friend"
 I turned to go back again through my window when Mrs. Orwell broke the icy silence that followed my speech.
 "Of course" she said irrelevantly, and prompted more by curiosity than friendly interest, eff you are engaged to the young man"
 She probably hopes 10 be-" speared Miss Hopkins.
 I looked at them amiably and with extreme sweetness, spelling their relish of the moment by declining to be enraged. I felt that the honors of the occasion were mine I had said my say, administered my rebuke, and now was the moment to close the interview.
 Perhaps" I smiled enigmatically, regarding first one then the other of them. And now, ladies, good night" But I went to bed, Joanie, feeling very down-in -the-mouth for all that. It isn't pleasant to endure the cheap. malicious criticism of a country inn And I suppose it has only just begun Well, dear, shall go through with it, I don't care what happens. I only hope Captain Wallis will not hear of it. It would end everything.
 Ever devotedly,
