MARY MILES MINTER
 PLAYING AT FOX'S.

Sweet Lavender" now showing at Fox's is one of those photoplays that is really worth while. The story is un- doubtedly the best work of that fa- nous dramatist Arthur Pinero and the cast is one of the greatest ever assembled. Miss Minter, Theodore Roberts and Milton Stills need no in troduction to the picture fan and their work on the screen needs no comment
 No pains has been spared to make Sweet Lavender" the success 1t is and Paul Powell, who directed Mary Pickford in "Pollyanna." was chosen to stage the piece. With such story, such a cast and such a director, it is no wonder there has been turned out a motion picture which can be safely presented to the most critical audience.
 The second chapter of Fantomas, "A Million Dollars Reward" shows that arch-criminal still pursuing his wicked and baffling ways.

THE PASSING SHOW
 PASSES THIS WAY
Winter Garden Revue Playing at
 Parsons Theater
(By Herald Reviewer)

Although it is more than a year since it made its initial bow. and It's legitimate successor, the Passing Show of 1920" is opening in New Haven this week, nevertheless the Passing Show of 1919," the holiday week attraction at Parsons in Har<- ford proves quite a satisfying enter tainment. This big Winter Garden revue scintiates with the usual Winter Garden variety of women. fashionable gowns, modest and otherwise. accord ing to the Blue Laws ideas of the spectator. sense and nonsense. The production now appearing satirizes many Of the theatrical hits of the day.
 It starts with a prologue on Mount Olympus. the home of the pagon gods. where Bacchus complains to Jupiter about the dry world and com miserates mortal man on being de- priced of his nectar. From there the scene changes to the Canadian bor- der line, with liquor on one side and temperance drinking on the other. This serves to introduce the chief funmaker of the revue. James Bar ton, whose alcoholic pantomime is said to be tho quintessence of fun. Next comes a glimpse of ancient Sa- lem in the days Of witchcraft, but the witches in this episode are all young and of the bewitching variety.
 Then follows an artistic travesty on the Barrymore success. ''The Jest" with dainty and dashing Frankie Heath as the young Italian poet. A

THE HONEYMOONERS"
 BILL AT THE LYCEUM


 The Honeymooners' have made the best hit so far in the repertoire of the oh IT. Baby company, judging by the applause accorded the players at both performances yesterday. 'The Hooneymooners" is easily the laugh ing hit of all the shows presented by the company thus far. and some of the scenes fairly rock the audience in hilarity. Especial attention has been paid in this bill to the costumes, and striking raiment is worn in the scene on board ship, which, by the way, is comedy. A take-off on My Hero" from The Chocolate Soldier is presented in this scene.
 Tsurif Aoki the Japanese star. won a place in the hearts of the Lyceum the feature picture. The story concerns Yuki Onda, a Japanese girl of the aristocracy who is brought up with the idea that her life and heart are consecrated to the service of her country. She is sent to America and finds herself in the social whirl of the diplomatic set at Washington. Return ing to Japan the betrothed of an Austrian artist, she is opposed by her father, who has an inherent dislike of foreigners.
 Mutiny on the high seas. as depicted by the master pen of the late Jack London. will be feature picture the second half of the week. This big new Metro production, with an all-star cast presents the London novel in all the grim power of its conception,

BOTH SIDES OF
 ELECTION DAY

Good citizenship means team work, and it is an all-the-year- round job, not merely a campaign stunt. It is not enough to let our candidates know that we are check ing up both sides of election day; we must back up both sides of cleo tion day as well. Watch the Legis- lature, the Congress, the Bench, and the Executive Chair, to hold up their hands as well as to uncover their records. Good government is a CO., operative affair. The vigil doesn't t
 end for the citizen with the counting
 of the ballot any more than for the
 candidates. The tone and quality of
 the citizenry mark the measure of
 the governments achievement. Off cial heads can not be much better
 than the rank and file; they dare not
 be much worse. Freedom is
 growing thing which is forever being won anew, with each new fight, with each new law, with each new institu- ton. The citizen-every citizen has a stewardship as well as does the public official. The welfare of I our country checks our account. To- gether with it we are on trial, and perhaps, in this hour, we women most l of all. For our is the new consecra- l tion, the long and special prepara- ton.
