THE HYPERION.

Manager Menges has something in
the way of double treat for the
patrons of his popular playhouse the
coming week for he will offer as the
play, Peggy Behave" the delightful
comedy from the pen of Owen Davis
and in presenting it he will give to
New Haven drama lovers three new
stars in the company in the person of
Ninita Bristow, the beautiful young
leading lady who has just finished a
starring tour on Broadway; Arthur
De Lord, rated as veritable find
among dramatic stock leading men, and
Summer Gard, another clever chap from
Broadway to stock With these three
changes in the company and with old
favorites such as Eric Dressler, Shir-
ley Booth and Bob Laurence remaining
with the Players the season will start
with bang beginning Monday.
Peggy Behave" is happy combina-
ton of farcicial circumstances and
situations that make for delightful and
health giving humor Peggy is one of
those unreasonable, spoiled, wilful in
dividuals who becomes insanely jealous
of her husband for no good reason.
Hubby prevails on her TO return to her
fathers roof and while there learns of
plans for a coming marriage. The ar
rangements provide for second VEN
ture in marriage for her father but
she is led to believe that it's her own
husband who is going to marry a good
looking widow and in order to avert
friend husband from becoming bigam-
list she notifies the police and has the
house surrounded. This brings about
numerous side splitting situations and
complications that are eventually un-
raveled but not until some of those
vitality concerned are given several min
utes of suspense and heart aches. It's
all Strengthened out and Peggy and hub
by unite again while father and mother
in-law share in the bright and happy
future that faces them all. Miss Bris-
tow will make her New Haven debut
in the role of Peggy" with Mr.. De
Fard as the young husband, and Sum-
ner Gard as the father of Peggy. Eric
DRESSER is going to furnish surprise
and at the same time reveal his versa
tility by playing the role of a clergy
man, and Shirley Booth and Edith
Potter have big and important roles.
Quite the most brilliant aggregation
of cinema stars to appear on one bill
at the Hyperion come this Sunday night
and the sterling quality of the program,
its diversity and the face of its stars
should pack the theatre to its last bit
of space. Norma Talmadge is the bright
particular star appearing in THE Isle
of Conquest" peculiarly and particu-
larry adapted for the physical charms
and rare talent of this splendid actress
and furnishing more than an hour OF
most delightful entertainment. Charlie
Chaplin, always a popular star, will be
screened in The Cure" most laugh
able series of incidents and with this
comic at his funniest and Frank Mayo,
who is a particular rayorite with the
Hyperion patrons, will be shown in

Emma Hart Willard.

Many have requested to know the | history and life of Emma Hart Will | lard, after which the local chapter | D. A. R. has been named. also the | High school branch of the Parents | and Teachers association. The fol- lowing data have been found from re- | liable sources.
 It has been said that a pupil of Miss Porter's school in Pennington may be known by the way she en- ters the room. Sixty or seventy years ago there was a class of young ladies in Berlin. of superior qualities of mind,. and of distinctive bearing, the latter the result of a course of train ing at the Troy seminary. under Mrs Emma Hart Willard. Mrs. Willard was anxious that all girls in her circle of relatives, which was large, should have a chance to obtain an education, and she invited them to come to Troy at her own expense. Twelve of her Berlin relatives ac- cepted the offer.
 The popularity of Mrs. Willard's S school was so great that pupils came from all over the United States. from Canada and even from the West In dies. In 1888 she resigned her charge to her son and his wife, in order that she might go to Europe and travel and give more time to her literary lahors. She died in Troy, April Is, 1870, at the age of eighty-three years.
