1.-THE OLD NEsTe' AT PALACE.

When "The old Nest" comes to the Palace treater on Sunday, Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday, the people of New Britain will have a chance to see picture that has been hailed by critics and reviewers as the most sat ISfying all-American picture that has yet been produced. The theme, that of a mother who sees her six children :save her, one by one. is common to American families. All the poignancy of feeling that these leave-t.akings arouse in real life have been caught on the screen.
 Rupert Hughes is the author of this unusual tale of mother love. He has sought to present a cross-section of a universal theme as applied to an American family. All the joys and sorrows connected with raising a family have been dramatized. Each of the children grow to manhood or womanhood with his own individual interests, then leaves the old nest to follow the call of his desires. Only their mother is left to her loneliness and her memories. But, as in every American family, the young remem- Der the old nest and return to it.
 Ths picture was produced by Gold wyn and was directed by Reginald Barker. Mary Alden plays the old mother. and her performance has been said to be a masterpiece of screen acting.

Edith Fairfax Explains.

His anguish left me cold. do not believe that at this moment his very death would have affected me | stirred restlessly in his arms looked past him casually to the door and saw that the remorse which was swaying him was shared by some one else.
 For. standing in the doorway lead ing to the hall. was Edith Fairfax, with eyes full of remorseful anguish burning in her pallid face. She was nattened against the door, with her hands spread out against it, as if she were trying to es,,cpe observation, but as her eyes caught mine she came forward swiftly, knelt by me on the side farthest away from Dicky and turned an imploring face u pto me. I was with dull amaze Ddcky's proximity.
 "Madge." she said solenIy. "I've been very thougttless-and unfair these last few days. but I'll-I'll atone; you'll see. I'll not rest until find your baby. And-you must let LIaila and Mother Durkee and Aunt Dora take care of you. They'll be here any minute now. They had to wait a few minutes before starting while Dicky didn't stop the car for a second after the hotel man met him at the door with the message just whirled around and came on flying. Tll-I'Il keep out of your way. for l know you won't want to see me, but I'll be hunting every minute for that blessed baby
 She rose, went back into the hall; and I felt Dicky shrink away from her as she passed. I guessed that. while no doubt the feeling would wear away if Junior were found. yet just now Dicky hated her, and she knew 1t. for her share in his absence from home upon this day. But Dickys feeling toward her. or her feeling toward Daoky. meant nothing to me. I only feared that Dicky might think it necessary to voice his rehorse to me also.
 Before either of us could speak, however, there was a hustle in the hall. and little Mrs. Durkee, with tear-bedewed eyes. rushed up to me. Mechanically. I rose to greet her, | curiously glad to be away from | Dicky's clinging arms, as strangely | grateful for her embrace instead. over her head I say the tiny figure of Aunt Dora Paige, with the stal- wart figure of pr. Jim Beside her
 while Alfred and Leila were close behind them-the deep, sympathetic grief they all felt mirrorcd on their faces.
 And knew-but could feel TIC emotion at the knowledge-that as far as human friendly aid could go these dear and tried friends would exhaust themselves in our service.
