WHAT Does Air-Bag
Curing Do to q Tire?

Firestone Gum-Dipped Cords are cured
under internal expansion on air bags. Each
cord is held straight and taut during vul-
canization, giving perfect alignment, pre-
venting creasing and avoiding the posi-
bility of the cord fabric buckling.
Air-bag curing is a costlier process,
but It adds carcass strength and wear
to the tire that increases mileage and cuts
user costs.
The uniform dependabiiity and wear of
Firestone Cords, their nationwide pcpu-
larity among the more discriminating car
owners. their never-waning reputation for
Most Miles per Dollar are significant facts

THE CHRISTIAN AT
 PALACE NEXT WEEK
Hall Gaines Masterpiece Film
 Feature

A photoplay that is worthy to rank among the best that the industry has to show-that is the opinion of many reviewers, famous stars and directors who saw Goldwyn's photoplay version of Sir Hall Gaines most famous novel
 .'The Christian" run off in a private screening at the studios. Picture goers of New Britain will have an op- portunity of judging of the merits of this Maurice Tourneur production when 1.-The Christian" comes to the Palace theater for four days, begin- ming Sunday. It is foregone con- clnsion that they will agree with the opinions expressed by those who have already seen it.
 When Goldwyns decided to make the film version of Sir Halls great novel, the production executives cast about for the best man in the business 10 direct it. Choice finally settled on Maurice Tourneur who has won in ternational fame for his productions of 'The4 Blue Bird" Treasure Is- land" "The Last of the Mohicans," and other literary classics. The task of selecting the two leading players was then entered upon. Choice did not settle upon Richard Dix for the part of John Storm and Mae Busch for the Glory Quayle until many fam ous film players had been considered,

The accompanying picture shows the cast of one of the first amateur theatrical productions ever staged 1T this city, that of "A Celebrated Case presented by the Y. M. T. A. and B society nearly three decades ago.
 It was later repeated under the name of .'The Ticket of Leave Man The play was staged under the direc- tion of Tom Stratton of Seymour & Stratton, popular players of quarter of century ago.
 lii the photo are the pictures of a number of prominent residents of the city, but it is doubtful if many will be recognized at first glance.
 In the first row, reading from the left side, IS Bernard Pagan, Sr., who was extremely popular in amateur theatricals of a quarter of century ago. He is now engaged in the busi- ness of conducting a restaurant and dance hall at Walnut Beach.
 X Lively Undertaken
 Next to Mir. Pagan is Michael J. Kenney, well known New Britain undertaken who also enjoyed great popularity in the field of amateur thespians. MT. Kenney took part Tn many shows presented by the "Tabs np to recent years when the straight drama gave way to the musical com edy pieces in T. A. B. dramatics.
 The female members of the cast, from left to right were; Mrs, M. J, Kenney, Mrs. Edward ostrowski, Miss Mae Nagle, Miss McGill and Mrs. Thomas J. Smith. They presented a ouintet of capable and popular por- trayers of female roles. Mrs Ostrow- ski is now deceased. Miss Nagle is graduate nurse and Miss McGill is a teacher in the public schools. Mrs smith is the wife of the democratic registrar of voters.
 At the extreme right of the first row is John Hannon, now an employe or Andrews, Swift & Co. at their Com n.ercial street meat house. MT. Han non was featured in many of earlier dramatic endeavors of the society,
 Actor Now Letter Carrier.
 Tn the second row the first man standing on the left side, IS Johh Burns, now employed at the post of fee as letter carrier. For many years Mr. Burns was actively interest," ed in Tabs" plays and minstrel troupes of that society.
 Next to MT. Burns is William For sythe, Sr., who is connected with the stock department of Landers, Frary S Ciark's. His name in the cast ot early T. A. B. dramatics was taken as assurance of something better than ordinary" in the line of amateur act ing.
 To Mir. Forsythe's left is Joseph Cal lahan. now deceased, a former presi- dent of the society and at one time chairman of the board of public saf- civ. He was the father of Urban T. Callahan who has taken the leading mart in several of the recent musical comedy successes of the organization and who is conceded to be one Of the host if not the best. amateur per former in the city. He was also the father of Joseph Callahan, Jr an- other favorite in "Tabs" shows.
 Policeman In Cast.
 Few will recognize the man to MT, rallahan.s left. although upon men tion. of his name strong resemblance will undoubtedly be seen at once. He is Michael Cosgrope. now a member of .the city's finest" doing duty at rox's theater and relief traffic duty in

He renounccs his love, and Glory goes to London to become a nurse, later going on the stage and becom- ing a popular star. Storm enters a monastery, but unable to overcome his love for Glory, renounces his vows. He later establishes mission in Lon don and, in religious frenzy. goes to Glory determined to kill her. Her love for him causes him to forego4 his purpose and he wanders out into Trafalgal Square where he is mob bed by a crowd which has been mis- led by an enemy of Storm's into be- lieving that he had prophesized the end of the world for midnight.
 In addition to the photoplay fea- ture four very good acts of Keith vaudeville will be offered, featuring two acts that will specially make 9 big hit. They are Telaak and Dean in the comedy slit Calling" and Erich Phillips and Co, in q new and
