STOP. LOOK AND MARRY

Under the old Michigan Marriage
Law a couple could become engag-
ed, get a license and be married
within ten minutes.
Eighteen months ago the legisla-
ture passed a second-thought law
requiring a five-day wait after the
license is issued.
The marriage license clerk at De-
troit checked his records at the end
of a year under the new law and
found that one couple in every
twenty never came back.-Collier's
Weekly.

citizens of New Britain will have
the opportunity to see the crown
ing gift of a romantic genius to the
art of this country. THE Son of

picture is masterpiece that will not

is perfect work that this genera

BROKEN HEARTS OF
HOLLYWOOD HERE
Warner Brothers Special Sun
day, at Lyceum

Broken Hearts Of Hollywood"
hailed in filmdom as "Over the Hill
Number 2" by virtue of its touching,
pathetic and withal human story,
opens tomorrow night at the Ly-
scum theater and some idea of the
caliber Of the acting to be seen may
be Judged by glancing over the per-
sonnet which includes Patsy Ruth
Miller, Douglas Fairbanks, Jr.,
Louise Dresser, Stuart Holmes, Bar
bara Worth, Jerry Miley and Emile
Chautard. On this same bill will
be The Last Alarm" with Wanda
Hawley and Jimmy Aubrey. The
news events of interest and a select
cd comedy are likewise shown. For
the last half Of the week another
change Of features Is in store and
the second eposide of the new eager
ly awaited Radio Detective" serial
is listed.
AS an added attraction on Mon
day, Tuesday and Wednesday. THE
Black Phantom" a clever German
police dog destined for stardom in
the movies, will be, seen on the Ly-
ceum stage. The animal now is en-
route to Hollywood. After putting
the Phantom through a number of
stunts the owner will leave him
alone on the stage whereupon the
clever beast is said to so through a
series of difficult feats all alone
and without human direction.
In making Broken Hearts OF
Hollywood" Warner Brothers used
real backgrounds, making the pic
ture even more true to life. Few
stories have sought to tell of the
struggles, the sacrifices and the
costs involved in the broken hearts
of movie land. Little has been con-
sidered Of life, love and home that
really count in this world. However.
in this drama and in the role of
Virginia Perry (played by Miss
Dresser) many of these things are
brought out more forcibly than ever
before, for it deals realistically
with the struggles and hardships of
Hollywood.
MISS MllleT HIS the IOle Vi Duty,
one of the extra" girls on n motion
picture lot while young Fairbanks
portrays the role of Hal, an ambi-
tious youth who goes to Hollywood
to act in the movies. Badly in
need Of money, he takes a job as
stunt man" and is ordered to leap
from an express train into speed
ing auto.
There is a sensational murder cpl
sode and a gruelling court trial in
this picture in which a former star
is accused. How she is saved from
the gallows by admissions made by
Il young screen beauty gives a ire
mendous impetus to the picture and
paves the way to the final climax
which is a smashing one as it
eventually discloses the fact that
the woman saved from death os a
murderess is in reality the mother
of the girl whose testimony saved
her life.

stage AND SCREEN

The remodeled Capitol theater,
which the management originally
had hoped to be ready for reopening
on Labor Day, will not be complet-
I'd by that time. although II is de-
finitely certain now that the play
house will be ready for its opening
within tho next two weeks.
The alterations have been so ex-
tensivc, and on such an elaborate
scale, that completion within the
original time limit was impossible.
The interior decorating itself is TAX
ing a long time due to the fact that
several coats of enamel, gliding and
paint have to be applied and each
one has to be thoroughly dried be-
fore the other is put on.
Work on the Strand continues to
progress with speed and some idea
of how it will look when completed
may be cleaned from the size of the
marquee already in place.
With the enormous Strand mar
dJlee at south end of Main street,
with the brilliantly lighted Lyceum
marquee at the other end of the
park and Capitol marquee dazzl-
ing in it's electrical effect just bit
beyond, the center of the city will
have a truly metropolitan theatrical
aspect this winter.
II. 3. Warner, stage star of "Sil-
ence." will soon be seen at the Ly-
ceum theater in the screen version
of. this sensational drama. Mr..
Warner takes the same role he
created on the stage, that of the Ser
ring young man, who, in later life,
marches steadfastly up to the gal
lows to save the name OF his own
daughter who has been reared in
ignorance of him. 1t derives its
name from the fact that the I'M
Justly convicted man maintains a
steadfast silence, even up to a few
minute before the time for his exc
cution, when one word would save
him.
THE Black Phantom" new
conner in screendom but destined to
later be known as one of the movies
famous dog stars, comes to the Ly-
ceum the first three days of the
week. This dog, appearing in his
canine person and not a picture, Is
an added attraction. The animal
will do a number of stunts on the
stage and some OF his tricks are
accomplished without direction, the
animal being alone on the stage at
the time.
The dog and owner arrive here
tomorrow and probably will be seen
on the street during the day.
Truth Is stranger than fiction" is
an old phrase, but it was proven
true during the filming OF Broken
Hearts of Hollywood" the Warner
Brothers epic of Filmtown which |
comes to the Lyceum theater to-
morrow, when Louise Dresser. who
plays one of the leading roles, met
Edward Clark, playwright, who /
wrote the story for the screen.
In New York in 1916, Miss Dress
