the new William Fox photo-drama
with Peggy Hyland in the stellar role,
which opened yesterday at the Murray
Theatre
This is the fascinating story Of a
girl, who, with self-sacrifice, combats
the sinister hypnotist and takes upon
herself the blame for thefts to shield
girl friend. Sprightly Peggy Hy-
land puts the best Of her rare histri-
onic ability into the acting Of the
rather serious role of chaperon who
saves from disgrace the family of the
man she loves.
MURRETTE
Talk about fighting the II. C. Of L.
and who isn't talking about it? Con-
stance Binney, the newest star in the
Realart constellation of film twinklers,
does less talking and more fighting of
that selfsame H. c. than most any
body you ever heard about. While
some actresses with star honors and
salaries brag about the money they
spend, Miss Binney brags about the
amount she saves by making most of
her own hats. Just a yard of this,
and bunch of that, and a pinch of the
other. and presto, the nimble fingers
of that clever child have fashioned an
honest-to-Gawd chapeau that she isn't
ashamed to wear right out on the
Avenue or the Ritz to tea or anywhere,
Sc you can see for yourself that the
Binney millinery is a real economy
and not a press agent stunt.

Coop Stores First Three
Months Are Successful

One of the most effectual instru-
ments in this. city for the swatting
of old H. c. L., is located at 1877 Fort
Wayne avenue. 1t is labeled the Rich
mond Cooperative Grocery company.
About the first of this year several
railroaders decided that the best way
to buy groceries was from ones own
store, SO on Feb. 20, 1920, Richmond's
first cooperative store was opened.
1t was the purpose that every citizen
of Richmond be given the opportunity
to make dollars go the farthest.
In a little over three months the
store has grown from a company of
8S stockholders, to one of 145 stock
holders. In addition to this, 80 ap-
plications are on file.
Heading the local company is Clyde
Ryan, president; George Harper, sec
rotary and treasurer; Otto Weaver,
first vice-president; Charles limbaugh,
second vice-president, and Nor Love,
third vice-president.

WASHINGTON

The secrets of Paris police methods,
made famous In French detective stor-
les, are revealed in "L'Apache," the
latest Dorothy Dalton picture, which
Thomas H. Ince produced for Para
mountArtcraft release. The picture,
which is showing az the Washington
theater Friday and Saturday, involves
the murder OF a profiigate American
millionaire in the French capital. Miss
Dalton, who has the role of an Apache
dancing girl, is suspected of the crime
and imprisoned. The police investi-
cation reveals an astonishing tale of
deception and adventure that, it is
said, will thrill audiences. The pic
ture was directed by Joseph DECREASE.

PURE CASCARA is SPLENDID
LAXATIVE; EFFICIENCY IS
IMPROVED BY SIENNA LEAVES

There is probably no better laxa-
tive known than pure Cascara, but
cascara alone will not always relieve
an aggravated case of constipation.
Another well-known remedy is SEN
ma leaves, which have been used from
time immemorial to relieve a longest
ed condition of the bowels, and never
yet has anything been discovered to
surpass their effects But SIENNA leaves
alone, like cascara alone, will not al
ways answer the problem To get
best results, SIENNA leaves and cas-
cara should be mixed A little dose of
each is like two small horses pulling
Sgether in the same direction, they

To get right proportions of each
ingredient requires a chemists skill,
but you can obtain cascara and SIENNA
tablets, already prepared, under the
name Of Pepgen Laxative tablets at
any first class drug store.
When constipated, it is a good idea
to take Pepgen tonic in connection
with Pepgen Laxative tablets. The
tablets keep the bowels open while
the tonic acts as a general builder,
furnishing strength through the liver,
stomach and blood.

GOmpers Investigates
 IOn0ShOremen Strike

New York, May x29.---The strike of coastwise 1ongshoremen, which with other strikers in the port has seriously crippled the movement of freight, was subject of separate investigations to- day by Governor Alfred E. Smith and Samuel Gompers, president of the Am merica,n Federation of Labor.
 Governor Smith interceded yester- day on his own initiative and inter- viewed officials of the longshoremen i association to learn their side of the controversy. Today he planned tt hear the other side and arranged a conference with Alfred E. Marling. chairman of the Citizens Ira nsporta- tion Committee which was recently organized by merchants to move freight on the open shop principle
 MT. Gompers, who conducted per- sonal inquiry yesterday, announced last night that the longshoremen and other strikers were willing to submit their differences to arbitration.

MAY PROTEST SALARY GRAB Expect Request Will Be Made For Public
 e Hearing.

Opposition to the recently signed ordinance giving the members of the Board of Aldermen a salary of $500 a year may develop at the next meet ing of the Common Council in the form of a protest and the request for a public hearing on the matter. This was the impression in political circles this morning.
 The only member of the board who opposed the passage of the measure was Malcolm Macfayden, who went out of the city this morning for the holiday, and through whom the op- position may develop. It is said that the granting of salaries to the aldermen opens up way for all the boards and commissions in the city to look for an annual salary.
 Taxes are high enough, landlords claim, without putting an additional burden upon those who own property and have to pass the extra charge on tc the rent payers.

World War Veterans
 Will March Monday

Given good weather Memorial Day will be very generally observed in this city. Both the Brooklawn and the Weatogue Country clubs have planned specials programs and all of the yacht clubs will go into commission for the season. The bathing pavilions are to open for the season and if the day is warm are anticipating a record busi- ness. Baseball fans are greatly in- terested in the game with New Haven at Newfield Park in the morning at 1O:3O o'clock as the race between the teams is very close. The golf links at Beardsley Bark and the tennis court will be filled with lovers of these out of door sports.
 Much of the interest of the day will center around the parade which is scheduled to start at 10 o'clock. This is an innovation as in previous years it has always been held in the after noon.
 The program of events in connec- tion with the parade in which veter- ans of the World War will take a place second only to the veterans of the Civil War are as follows:

GET BOATS READY FOR BIC SEASON

Yachtsmen of this vicinity are pre- pairing for the greatest season that they have ever experienced. Many men who have for a number of years taken their vacation enjoyment in ad- miring the beauties of nature while taking spin in their automobile have come to the conclusion that with the increasing number of cars on all high ways on Sundays and holidays the sport is not so safe and enjoyable as it was previously.
 This feeling has resulted in a large increase in the membership and en- thusiasm of the several yacht clubs along the Sound.
 Most of the yacht clubs will go into commission on Monday and will hold appropriate exercises when flags and pennants are unfurled on Monday morning.
 For number of weeks past, in fact since the weather has become at all mild, the owners of motor boats and yachts have been busy putting their craft in trim for the season, overhaul ing engines and caulking and paint ing the hulls and upper works.
 A number of the members of the Pequonnock Yacht club will start on it's initial cruise this afternoon. The boats will visit Port Jefferson, Hunt (Continued on Page Four.)

EXTRA TR0LLEYS
 FOR HOLIDAY Special Arrangements Made For Handling
 Crowds.

Extra trolley cars to handle the ho1- iday crowds on Monday will be put into service on the various lines of the city according to an announcement made by Joseph M. Goodwin, man. ager of the local division, at his office this morning.
 Extra trolleys will start running on the South Park avenue line early in the morning, prior to the parade and will be continued after the parade and up until evening. Additional service on the South Main street line will also be maintained and be continued throughout the city. Other lines that will benefit by the extra service are the Bridgeport+Derby line which will operate on a 30 minute schedule from the center of the city; Bridgeport to Savin Rock via Barnum avenue and Stratford avenue on a 71-2 minute schedule; 20 minute service will be given on the Paradise Green to Nor walk line on Monday and Sunday both. A park to park, from Boards ley to Seaside, special run will also be in operation.
 In handling the crowds to the beaches Mr. Goodwin said the situa- ton would be handled according to the weather and other conditions that arise between now and Monday.

NEW SLOGAN
 TO STOP FLY

Health Officer Dr. William H. Coon has fired the opening gun in the seasons campaign against the troublesome fly, in a circular an- nouncement issued this morning at his office in the Health and Charities building. Dr. Coon's interesting statement in regard to the Swat the Fly movement follows:
 At this season of the year, our slogan should be not Swat the Fly but rather Stop the Fly and the best way to stop the fly is to pre- vent it's appearance on the scene. The fly is a direct product of filth; for the female fly selects piles of filth as the most fitting place to lay her eggs, as fifth is food for the larvae or maggot as it is matched from the egg.
 The time elapsed from the 1ayin g of the eggs by the female fly to the development of the fly is little over seven days. This makes it necessary, if we are to prevent the appearance of flies, to remove all collections of filth at least once each week. It is much easier and safer to pre- vent the breeding of flies than to destroy them after they have enter | ed the homes, market, restaurants
 and places where food is sold or 1 eaten. Flies are carriers of disease
 and the proprietor of a clean market 1 or restaurant will not have them or | the premises.
 1 Citizens will help themselves anC l otherse by informing the Health De | partment of the markets, shops, o1
 restaurants where there are an un l necessary number of flies. Citizens | will also help themselves and oth | CTS by having removed from thei | premses any collections of filth O {, refuse in which flies may breed"
