Davis rheatre Monday and Tussdsr

The largest and strongest cast of play CTS ever called together for Marshall Neilan picture is announced for Neilan's s latest First National feature attraction, Bits of Life which will be the atIrac- tion next week at the Davis theatre.
 Among the screen favorites to be seen in Bits of Life" are Wesley Barry. Lon Chaney, John Bowers. Harriet Ham rnond. Rockcliffe Fellowes, James Brad bury, Jr.. Noah Beery, Anna May Wong, Teddy Sampson. James Neil, Frederick Burton. Edythe Chapman and Dorothy Mackail
 And "Bits of Life" is decided novelty in the way of motion picture entertain- ment, inasmuch as it presents four sepa- rate and distinct stories. which are com- bined in such way that the same strong dramatic theme run through the entire production.
 To say that ssThe Child Thou Gavest Me- is appearing and soul-stirTing is not only taking advantage of overworked phrases, but is doing it advisedfy and with full justification. A person who could sit through this picture without being touched by the plafntive little figure of a boy who lives in a house divided and the situations which naturally arise from this condition is wholly incapable of human pentratfon or emotion.
 Little "Itchie" Headrick, who plays the part of the little son, is only three and a half years old but he gives a startling performance. Not for a moment can one realize that the boy is being directed be- fore a motion picture camera. he goes through his part-and it is considerable one-in a remarkably natural manner, ap- parently obvious of the fact that there is a eaneraman within eye rnge. "Itchie' appears in fully half of the picture. ana one constantly wishes to see more of him
 A clever comedy closes the bill.

years as lisutenant and for five years as chief of the depaTtmsnt. Big Dan" as the chief ia called by hundreds who know him, is the dean of guardians of the Will limantic public and has an excellent rec ord as an oficer and chief. He WAS ap- pointed patrolmaR April T. 1890, by Seth Billings. then warden of the old Willi- mantle borough. When the city was in corporated. in April 1898, the places of officers of the police department became political spotls, but Dan, was continued by every administration, until the perRla nent force was instituted some years la ter. Every man on the police force has life job, depending on his record and and the long service records of the local officers bear out well the statements of willinaantic's mayors, that Willimantic has the best little police force in the state.'
 February 1. 1900, officer Kjllourey was made a lieutenant, taking the place of Edgar Fl. Richmond, who became chief when William Hillhouse resigned from the head of ths department, to en- ter railroad service. Up to about ten years ago the mayor of the city held the title of chief of police; but under the administration of Mayor Daniel P. Dunn the title of captain was removed and chief became the title of the true head of the department.
 In the. spring of 1917. when the war broke out, the American Thread Com pany, looking for a man to slperintend it's employment department, offered Chief Richmond the appointment, which was accepted and ''D&n" became chief of the department. In the old days the police mans job was no cinch as many an old timer was brought in only after a tough fight.
 During the past few prohibition years Chief Killourey and his men have spread fear among the booze-runners and more than one rum runner came to grief when he tried 10 navigate through Willinaa ntic without falling into the tolls Of the ever active police force. In fact Willimantio had such name at that time that most booze runners ducked this city and cut into the country and then ran through other towns where the police we're less active

This is the advice of a learned

"Girls know best what they
want to wear and nobody else,
not even their fond parents,
should interfere" said Judge Wit
kower.
The occasion for his remarks
had to do with the case OF Eliza
beth Foresch, fourteen years old.
Elizabeth "dolled herself up In
her mothers silk stockings rolled
beneath her knees, tucked up
skirt which displayed dimpied
knees; powder and rouge, perhaps
applied a little too thickly, and
her brothers low rubber boots,
in lieu OF galoshes.
Elizabeth crossed the yard to
test her get-up on Homer Ander-
son, an interior decorator.
Mr.. Anderson's decorative sense
was outraged. His remarks shock
ed Elizabeth, who returned home
crying. Her father hurried to
Anderson's presence for an ex-
planation. A quarrel ensued
which landed both before Judge
Witkower on the charge Of disor-
derly conduct.
The Judge, after offering some
advice to men, dismissed the
the case.
Don't ever interfere with a

herself, that's her own business" !"
