 Sunday Movies.
 There will be moving pictures in : the Community theater on Whiting street Sunday night, according to the statement of Mir Eastman to a Her old representative last night. A story carried in this paper last evening was 10 the effect that there would be no showing of pictures on Sunday night because of the illness of members Of the board [ of selectmen, from whom MT. Eastman sought a permit to run the pictures.
 Yesterday the manager got in touch with Mir. Johnson, the first select man, and asked him if he could get permission to hold his Sunday night show. Mir. Eastman had gone to considerable expense and booked Norma Talmadge feature picture while in New Haven early In the week and was anxious to And out about the permit to run Sunday evening. Mir Johnson explained to him that two members of the board are confined to their homes at the present time and 1t would be impossible for him to hold a meeting of the board. Well will you give me permission to hold the show" the selectman was asked. He was not In favor of granting per mission himself inasmuch as che de- sired to have the opinion of the other members of the board
 Realizing that MT. Eastman has gone to considerable expense in put ting a theater in the town and real izing also that there has been a pub lie demand for entertainment of some kind, Mir. Johnson did not refuse per mission for the picture. It was al silent consent inasmuch as he told Mir. Eastman that he would not give him his personal permission as select man neither would he prosecute him for holding the show. In other words 1t was up to Mir. Eastman and in neither case would he be legally re- sponsible for breaking a law. So the manager has started advertising for his Sunday night picture show and stated last night that he was mighty glad MT. Johnson took the attitude he did as he (the manager) had gone to considerable expense to book | the picture which he is featuring.
 The running of the movies on Sum- day night may and may not meet | with opposition. That remains to be i seen and will have a lot of influence on whether, or not the selectmen favor the Sunday evening entertainments This will either estab- fish or ruin precedent and the man. ager awaits with interest to see or not the townspeople real y desired Sunday night entertainment IS most of them have said.

MT. Talmadge ras a popular figure about town as e used to get around, despite the { which the war brought on i'm. He admired his three grand ( hildren and used to make much of hem when they stayed here. Know 1g the natural interest in the Tal- 1adge family, Mir. Eastman manager V f the Community theater. has booked }
