opinion. Accordingly the board ad-

In Wings OF the Morning" the new
feature In which William Fox will
present William Farnum at the Prin-
cess theatre on Thursday and Friday,
Nov. 20 and 20.
During the course Of the story Cap
tain Robert Anstruther, played by Will
liam Farnum, and Iris Deane. played
by Louise Lovely, are ship-wrecked ON
a lonely isle in. the South Seas There
they are attacked by Dyaks. Help ar
rives In the form of a British gunboat
just in the nick of time.
The scenes In which the Dyaks ap-
pear are said TO be the most exciting
recently seen upon the screen. The
Dyaks are unique-not to say spectnc-
ular-in their attire The original and
still prevailing costume consists of a
waistcloth, generally OF blue cotton,
brass rings on the legs and arms,
necklaces Of black and white beads
and large crescent-sbabed earrings
The men usually carry u betel nut
pouch In addition 10 curved sword
and long spear.
Head hunting Is essentially relig.
ious practice with the Dyaks: each
seeking a conservation for every inn
portant event Of his life by the acquisi-
ton OF one or more skulls. But, il
Heaven depends on enemy skulls. the
Dyaks who attacked William Farnum
in Wings OF the Morning. are doom
ed to perdition. for both Farnum and
his leading lady escaped unscratched.

NADO TO MAKE FINAL
EFFORT TO HAVE CARS MEET

Secretary Harry l.. Nado of the
Webster-Dudley Chamber of Com
merce, is making final effort to re-
establish trolley communication with
the Grosvenordales, discontinued
nearly year ago. Mr.. Nado is
about to leave Webster for Green
wich and is ambitious to bring the
service about before he departs.
Mr.. Nado has been in communica-
ton with the president of the line OPP
Grating in Massachusetts and also
with the president of the Connecticut
Company. He says that the former
president takes the stand that his
company cannot operate cars in Con-
necticut and that the president of the
Connecticut Company says that he
cannot operate line that he does not
feel will pay the expenses of the
crews.
The president Of the Consolidated
believes that the only solution of the
problem is contract between his
company and the Connecticut COM
pany which he says he submitted to
the Connecticut Company, but which
has not been accepted. Mr.. Nado's
final effort is in trying to get the
heads of the two companies together,
which he hopes to do.

SCREAMS my GOD.
YOU'VE HIT A MANI"
Auto Keeps On, Leaving Vic
tim Lying In Road.-Found
Several Hours Later
Uric Thibeaudeau At Hospital With
Broken Leg and Other Injuries

Suffering from a compound frac-
ture of the left leg, minor cuts and
bruises, also from exposure from ~
ing in the rain fer several hours, IN
ric Thibeaudeau of Attawaugan was
brought to the Day Kimball Hospital,
Sunday morning. He win probably
recover.
According to officers who have in
vestigated the matter, Thibeaudeau
was struck by an automobile on the
Wauregan road below Danielson some
time between 2 and 3 o'clock Sunday
morning. That the occupants of the
car, which did not stop, must have
known that an accident had occurred
is made known by the victim himself,
who says that he heard woman in
the car scream: my God, you've hit a
man." This is about all the informa-
ton Thibeaudeau could furnish the
police.
The first known of Thibeaudeau's
plight was when Chief Mcfarland of
the Danielson police received a tele-
phone call from farmhouse inform
ing him that man was lying in the
road. The officer went to the place
designated and found Thibeaudeau
lying beside the highway drenched to
the skin and with one of his shoes
filled with blood. The man was taken
to the office of Danielson physician
and later removed to the hospital in
Putnam.
The heartless action of the driver
of the car has aroused a great deal
eff indignation. Knowing the man to
have been struck he left him in his
misery not knowing, or apparently
caring. whether he lived or died, so
long as he, the driver, was not dis
covered
1t was learned that Thibeaudeau
had been working in the mill at Alta
waugan. He was in Danielson Sat
urday evening and then says he
started for Wauregan to visit a
friend.
