BROADWAY ORCHESTRA
 ABSENT SUNDAY NIGHT

The Broadway theatre had to give its motion picture show Sunday eve ming without an orchestra as the mu- sicians who have been playing there did not report for duty.
 According to a statement from the Broadway theatre management, the orchestra had been given two weeks notice which expired Sunday making the Sunday night show the last that the musicians should have played to fill out the notice. The theatre man agement had no explanation to offer why the musicians did not appear Sunday night.
 The theatre musicians agree that they had received two weeks notice of dis charge and that under it their last play Ing would have been Sunday evening at the theatre. Their brief statement is that they left because Max Levine, Q representative of the theatre manage ment, told the orchestra members Sat urday night that Violinist Walter " Lang was through Saturday night but that the others could stay or get through as they pleased. The orchestra would not stand for discrimination against one of their number and all decided not to play Sunday if MT Lang was through.

REV. DIR. NEwLAND BREACHES
 AT HIS FORMER CHURCH

Rev John H. New1and, D. D., form erly pastor of Trinity M. D. church, this city, occupied his old pulpit at Trinity church Sunday evening. The Wayside Opportunity was the subject of his ser mon.
 Rev. Robert L. Roberts, Ph D., pastor of the church, led the service which open ed with a brief address, followed by a fervent prayer by Rev. pr. Roberts. The scripture selection, parts of the Sth and 9th chapters of St John, was read by Rev William H. Bath, superintendent of the Norwich district
 Rev. Dr.. Newland was presented by Rev Dr. Roberts. There is more than one way to live life in this world, said Rev. pr. Newland. Some take life in a hazard way, he continued. You may be able to get money by accident. you can never get an education by accident, nor can you get characters by accident.
 Those things come through planning and effort. A man says T am going te get an education" He works earnestly day by day, and at length he will sue ceed.
 Jesus healing the blind gives us a great truth. We ought to think of the waysidt opportunity The Wayside opportunity may be provincial thing. It may bt more important than the thing you hay, in hand. The wayside opportunity tha may meet you anywhere and anyrpml may bring to you the privilege of doing great work
 The man who thinks he knows @ To and tries to impress others with hi ] knowledge fails to recognize the fac I that the truly learned man doesn't mak i it known. Most of us won't b. rich. Some of us won't attain what VI set out to attain. But man can mak a success of his life nven though he does n5t attain his own objective.
 You don't have to be minister to b one of Gods great workers, Our persona work shouldn't keep us so busy tha we can afford to let the wayside opport 1 tInity bass.
