ADJUSTMENTS
MAY ALLISON IN
MANY COSTUMES
IN HER LATEST

May Allison always rs charming.
She is especially so in 1.-The Marriage
of William Ashe'' in which she will be
seen at the Colonial theatre today.
Not only is the play decidedly worth
while. but it stands out as one of the
most remarkable costume productions
ever shown on the screen.
Never has there been a play that has
fitted star any better than does this
vehicle fit May Allison. From the
opening scenes in which the beautiful
young Kitty Bristol. the role portrayed
by the star, rebels against the tram
mels of convent life and steals away
from their confines at night to seek adj
venture in the city Of London. This
adventure leads her at length to mar
riage with William Ashe, a member Of
the British Parliament
What results from this forms the
theme of the story. In the course of
the play. some tableaux vivant are
given and the Lady Kitty does some
posing. All kinds of costumes are
worn during the play. but the most no.
table is a blonde wig which Miss Alli-
son uses in her impersonation of Lady
Godiva. This is all she wears, but the
hair is SO long that 1t serves admira-
bly,.
THE Homespun Hero" is an educa-
tional comedy that is sure to make a
hit on today's program while the Out
ing Chester will appeal as it always
does.-Adv.

Hobart BOsworth
Nearly Meets His
Match In Play.

Hobart Bosworth. brawny, brainy
fighter that he is. nearly meets his
match in the Associated Producers
newest special starring Hobart Bos-
worth at the Augusta Opera House on
Friday and Saturday, where J. Parker
Read, Jr's production of "A Thousand
to One" will be given. For one of
the features in the drama is a fracas
which takes place at the mouth of a
mine and in which Bosworth holds
at bay a number of enragcd DULLES
His chief fistic opponent however, is in
private life Fred Kohler who plays the
role of Donnelly in the picture. Koh-
Ter is well-known wrestler and fstic
champion and there is more of the real
than the reel element in the tussle be-
tween the two square-shouldered bat
tiers.
"A Thousand to One" is a story that
for gripping interest is on par with
every other one Of the big features in
which Bosworth has appeared AL
though he appeared at the Opera House
last week. he will be doubly welcome
this week because of the magnitude of
the play offered and his continually in
creasing popularity. Other features
will also be given on the program

New Dry Dock
Bethlehem Plant

Quincy, Mass, Feb. IA new 10, GEO.
ton drydock was opened al the Fore
River plant of the Bethlehem Ship
building Corporation, Ltd. today, when
the Calvin Austin, which has been on
the New York-Boston run was dry
locked for reconditioning and repairs.
This new development gives the port
Of Boston facilities that have hereto
fore been available only in the Navy
Yards. The new dock will take ves-
sells 525 feet over all, with draft OF
q feet. Although its lifting power
is rated at 10000 tons, it will take
vessels about 20qs in excess of that
figure.
The pontoons. each of which is lie
feet long. were built at Solomon's
Island, on the Chesapeake, and the 100
tons of steel work was fabricated at
the Steelton plant of tho Bethlehem
Steel Company. A tug has brought
the pontoons up the coast in twos or
threes. connected by brides, with 1000
feet Of sea room between them. so
that the last three make q tow nearly
three-quarters of mile long.
In connection with the dock there
has been built concrete mooring pier
80 feet wide by 600 feet long, with a
timber extension 200 feet long, and al
so, a marginal wharf 30 feet by 500.
For the installation with it's APP
proaches, great deal of dredging has
been done. which has materially i'm
proved the ship water facilities oppo-
site the yard providing a main ship
channel that is now 20 feet mean
water.
