 What constitutes one of the finest pieces of scandal for gossips was re- vealed yesterday when Bertha Dunlap wife of Craig Dunlap. brilliant young attorney, was caught stealing in a local department store. With naughty glances and fiery scorn she heatedly denied talk ing the articles of which she was ac- cused. She was saved the disgrace of being locked up only on the prompt ap- pearance of her husband, who gave bail for her release. She left the store vow ing vengeance on those who had caused her the "annoyanca' as she stated. Ii seems as though Mrs. Dunlap was de tected in the act of secreting a valuable hand bag. in her own hand bag, by a girl at the wrapping desk at the local store. The case comes up for trial or Monday at the Strand theatre, where What No Man Knows. will be the fea- ture attraction starring Clara Kimbal Young, and great cast.

RREFn THEATRE

William Fox, who presented last night at the Breed theatre. for the frst time here. Zane Greys great story. The Last Trail, has given us. as q special production. a worthy succeSSor 10 the other Zane Grey stories he has contrib uted to the screen Who that saw Wii- liam Farnum fin Riders of the Purple Sage, The Rainbow Trail. The Last of the Duanes, and The Lone Star Ranger. can forget those superb examples of motion picture drama7 When The Last Trail is described as a worthy addition to this list, little more need be said tn the way of endorsement.
 The Last Trail is a story viriie in plot, sensational in situation and fasci- mating in incident-a story that -scresns perfectly" In the sustained mystery at taching to the work of a solitary outlaw it holds an expressing interest for the spectator up to the final clfnax-which is startlingiy effective in a scene show ing the blowing up of a great dam and the sweeping away of village by the flood. The manner in which this great scene gripped the first showing audience was a fine tribute to the pictures diree- tor, Emmett J. Fynn-who achieved distinction by his direction for Fox of A Connecticut Yankee and Shane. both special productions of a most ambitious character and both tremendous success- es.
 Maurice Flynn, the new Fox star. in the leading role of Tn Last Trail. mad a distinct hit. and was ably seconded by Eva Novak as the heroine. The entire company indeed Is a notable one. In C are seen the beautiful Rosemary Theby and the always dependable Harry Dun kinson and Charles K. French.

pREAp AND MrLK MEEn.

Bread-and-Milk Week begins today in every city and town in the New EnE> land states
 This campaign is being put on by the bakers and milk dealers and milk pro- ducers and has the backing of stats and city officials and health authorities.
 The week of June 5-10 has been set apart as the definite time to urge peo- pie throughout New England to eat mora bread and drink more milk. Health and food authorities are willing to declare this campaign will increase health and decrease the high cost of living.
 During this week, educational talkn are being given in the schools on the biz food value which Is supplied through this balanced ration. Attractive post CTS. urging the increased use of bread and-milk, halt the attention of people 10 the streets, while the advantages to bs gained through it's more liberal use. are being featured in numerous other ways.
 Many health authorities hope that as result Of this Bread-and-Milk Week. the public schools will introduce Bread and-Milk Week as A feature of the noon-day lunch. and also as a m.d-moru- ing and mid-afternoOn luncheon in the case of children suffering from mAl-nn- triton.
 Statistics show that in several iarru cities where bread and milk rrmpaiTns were carried on among school ehiloren for an appreciabic period. rc i's were no less than startling. DietI.:-ns and experts in charge assert that in one in- stance after another. this dief has transformed a child who was delicate. listless, uncer-nourished and hence dull in studies into a sparkling image of l health.
 1 Food experts reeommend brezd-and- | milk as a perfect. balanced ration Ths results of chemical analysis show that brea das well as milk Is rich in the llfe- giving clements essential to health. such as proteins. the tissue building clements, carbohydrates. the energy and fuel re- serve and the new mysterious vitamined now recognized as essential 10 life it- self
 The campaign makes a special appeal to the chief need of the adult human body-energy. What you eat today walks and talks tomorrow asserted ons well known milk dealer lately. Il ''one's capacity for work or play de' pends largely upon the kind of food on' eats In order to get enerWy out of th, human machine. energy must be put ints it." is the well known axiom of moderH food authorities.
 That bread-and-milk Is the one hun dred per cent energy-food seems 10 b' the concensus of opinion of dietttians food and health authorities alike

Battery B.. Last Dance.

Friday evening brings to close the most successful dance season for the public and for Battery B.
 For the last dance Battery B has se- cured from Paul Whiteman of New York the highest priced orchestra ever brought into Connecticut and without @ doubt the finest musicians ever heard in New England.
 The leader of this orchestra is Whee- Ter wadsworth of the All Star Trio. This worl dfamed organization, makers of Victor records and unequalled in the dance world, has leaped ahead in the last few years until it Is second to none. George Green Is another who needs no further introduction. Ills playing on the xyolophone will speak louder than wordc.
 Fer Confrey Is c by-word In the homes of dancers as the composer of Stumbling. and Kitten on the Keys Coaxing the Piano and other of the bis hits of the year. In the concert which will proceed the dance MT. Confrey will undoubtedly delight his listeners with piano solos that only he can play. Al. though brought here at a great deal larger price than the last whiteman at. traction Battery B will reduce the ad, mission in appreciation of the suppori given in its endeavors to furnish Nor vich with music that is the talk of New York.
