.THE WHITE sIsrER.v LYcErM

"THE WHITE SISTER," LYCEUM
 "The White Sister," Lillian Glsh's triumphant success, opened at the Lyceum this afternoon for the first three days of Holy Week and a more appropriate picture could hardly be found. tIdealistically sym pathetic and preaching the tenets Of self sacrifice for ideals, this Is a masterpiece of drama and has been characterized as one of the most beautiful fllms ever screened. In addition to the superb acting of Miss Gish. the picture has many thrilling scenes. The eruption of Mt. Vesuvins supplies the climax of this enthralling drama. Selected comedies and the latest news reels also, are shown.
 Starting on Thursday for the re- mainder of the3week the usual dou- ble feature program will present the third episode in "Galloping Hoofs." with Johnny Walker, One of the two big time productions presented fin this program will be "The Be- loved Brute."
 The week starting April 12 brings to the Lyceum one of the biggest dramas ever filmed. It is Douglass Fairbanks 'The Thief of Bagdad," filmed abroad and admittedly one of the cleverest and most dashing pie lures ever produced.

OUTLINES GROWTH OF FAFN|R BEARING
Magazine Article Sketches Prog
 resS Of Industry Here

A feature article on the rapid growth of the Fafnir Bearing com- pany of this city is given prominence in The Financial Digest, April issue, the monthly financial and business magazine which is published in Hartford.
 'Ten miles from Hartford is situ- ated the city of New Britain, one of the leading industrial centers of southern New England" says the Digest article.
 Here are located the gigantic plants of the American Hardware corporation, the largest manufactur- CT of builders hardware in the world, makers of tha famed Corbin and Russell & Erwin brands; Lam ders Frary & Clark, whose Uni versal" products are known from coast to coast, and the Stanley Works, whose products have like wise gained world renown. Super corporations these. Among the New Britain industrials they are com monly known as the Big Three
 There is ahother corporation in New Britain" continues the article, which has. developed so astonish- ingly fast in the last decade that 1t is entitled to be placed in the same class as the Big Three This com- pany has done excellently by it's stockholders and inquiry for the shares and statistics Is constantly in- creasing. The corporation is the Fafnir Bearing company.
 Starting in 1911 with a capital of only $50,0O0 there have been eleven capital increases to date, the present capital being s3,OO0,000. Of this amount only $S00,000- has been paid in, showing how we'll the share holders have fared.
 New Britain is at once manu- featuring city .and the investors there show preference for manu- featuring stocks. It happens that a large amount of Fafnir stock is owned in New Britain. The shares, however, are listed on the Hart1orQ i stock exchange and so popular have they become, as the result of the excellent record, that they are eagerly snapped up. The unusual name has caused many to wonder at It's derivation. The word Fafnir is from the Ice landic and means a giant who in the form of dragon guarded a great treasure. The dragon is the Fafnir

WOMEK'S LEAGUE
 PROGRAM READY
It Offers Wide Range of Subjects
 for Discussion

Richmond, Va, April G.-The pro. posed program of work for the Ma tional League of Women Voters car ries as ono of its principal recom- mendations the outlawry of war and its abolition as O legalized institu- ton. It will be submitted to the annual convention here April 1G-22.
 The tentative program, compre- hensive outline covering all phases of the leagues activities. Is now be- ing Sent out for consideration and discussion by state and local leagues. It includes two new federal recom- mendations, the first being Support of resolutions permitting United States official representation in the disarmament conference when called by the league of nations. 2 The sec ondi call for Support of measures designed to make effectlye the Permanent Court of International Justice and providing for the codI- fication of international law" also measures designed for the outlawry of war and its abolition as a legaliz- cd institution.
 Appointment of women to posi- tons in the national, state and local governments this year is supple mented by the plea for their place. ment on commissions 'and other bodies having international repre- sentation."
 While a holdover on the program from last year urges ratification of the child labor amendment, an ad- dition this year urges legislation to bring state child labor laws up to reasonable age. education and physical standard.
 The committee on education would be given the task of urging "ade- quate financing Of the federal de- partment Of education and of public schools in the District Of Columbia, as well as federal aid to states under the public school system research"
 Another addition to the work of this committte under the state legis- lative section is the plea for "equali- zation of the financial burden by apportionment of state school funds, according to community need, and effort to maintain good educational standards" and "the equalization of educational opportunity through qualified persons on the board Of education"
 The measures outlined on the pro- gram of work for the committee on the legal status of women range from the removal of all common law. disabilities of married women, to a plea that women voters be 'ade- quately represented at all party con- ventions and on all partisan com mittees and boards elected by the voters"
 The development of Muscle Shoals as national asset through legisla- tion which will provide "wide and economical distribution of electrical power" is one of the chief clauses on the program outlined for the committee.
