In normal times the plant employed as many as 500 people, but this force has gradually been cut down until at the present time there are not more than five or six employed there.
 The liabilities are listed at S586,567 and the assets at $725,S97. Among the creditors are the Hartford Aetna National bank of Hartford to the ex- tent of S20,000 and the Home Nation u bank of Meriden. listed having made them a loan of S25.000- The company, which has passed from the hands of the original owners into the hands of the F. c.

"WHITE AND UNMARRIED"
WITH MlIIGHAN AS STAR,
PROVED SUCCESS AT "B"

Everybody hates a erook--that
is, until they see Thomas Meighan's
latest Paramount picture, "White
and Unmarried" which was shown
at the "B" theater yesterday after
noon and last night, and 1t is being
repeated today. Thomas Meighan,
who made the crook role classic
in 1.-THE Miracle Man." again proves
his ability in similar characterize
ton.
The story tells of the inheritance
by the crook of a fortune, his de-
parture for Europe, his meeting on
the boat with Dorothea. a girl with
whose photo he has fallen In love
and the romance which develops
Billy takes Dorothea out to see the
"other side" Of Paris and in Bo-
henian cafe, Dorothea becomes
infatuated with Marechal, French
rogue. Billy becomes interested
in Andree, little dancer, thereby
arousing the jealousy of Chicoq, an
Apa che admirer, who later kid
maps Andree and conceals her in
Marechal's old farmhouse. After
a sensational gun fight in which
Billy kills Chicoq, Marechal and
another man, he rescues Andree.
Will M. Ritchey wrote the sena-
rio and Tom Forman directed. JAG
queline Logan plays "Andree" and
others in the cast are Grace OAR
mond, Walter Long, Lloyd Whit
lock, Fred Vroon, Marion Skinner
and Walter Long.

RECKLESSNESS OF GOOD
.WOMANHOOD EXEMPLIFIED
IN PICTURE, ''THE OATH"

Never has the needless reckless
ness of good womanhood when
friendship sounds the call for sue
cor been more splendidly exempli-
fled than in 1.-THE Oath" the r.
A. Walsh production for Associat-
ed First National pictures. which
opened at the Lyric theater yester-
day and which is being repeated
today. The scene in which Irene
Merriam sacrifices everything for
the sake of her husbands friend Is
the most dramatic which has been
shown on the screen in years.
Mr.. Walsh Is to be thanked for
an admirable piece of entertain
ment. He has taken William j.
Locke's novel, idols" and, while
adhering closely to the plot which
makes the work such a strongly
dramatic piece of fiction, has
frightened II considerably and
made the action rapid and seintil-
lating by discarding the non-essen-
tails and building his picture play
around the big points Of the origi-
nal work. The finished result is a
remarkable structure of dramatic
entertainment.
Mr.. Walsh has taken a daring
subject. that of the relation of re-
ligious prejudice to marriage be-
tween parties of different creeds,
and has treated the matter so del
icately that there is nothing but
delightful entertainment. The dra-
matte story that results could have
been based on no other premises
than that Of deep emotions aroused
by conflicting religions, A more
gripping photoplay has not been
seen here this season.
