PALACE THEATER TO. REOPEN VERY SOON
Alterations, Following Fire, Are
 Nearing Completion

Tho work o' remodcling the Palace theater has progressed 10 such an extent that the opening date will be announced shortly. So many radical changes have been made in the interior architecture painting and decorating that the theater will bo renamed The New Palace. It is expected the theater win reopen In four or five weeks.
 The inner lobby is to be widened by several feet allowing for six French doors to be used as the en- trance, The painting and decorat- ing of the lobby walls as well as the painting and decorating Of the interior Of the theater is to be exc cutcd by Del Modulati, well known for his works in the bigger houses along Broadway, It Is planned to make the lobby Of the New Palace one of the finest in the theaters oi Connecticut.
 The entire old system of wiring has been removed and a complete new system has been installed. The moving picture booth has been equipped with the latest projection machines thus assuring the patrons of the theatcr the best screen show ings available.
 The lighting system is so ar ranged as to afford plenty of ligh in the aislos and corridors withou interfering with the direct vision ol the picture sheet. The balcony aisle arc to be illuminated by light con cealed underneath each step, WhlI the wall lights are to be construct ed to conform with the policy o beauty and comfort. During inter missions the theater will be lighte by an enormous chandelier of on hundred lights allowing a Wld variety of color effects which IS [ be used In connection with the pic turo program.
 The ventilation of the thcater to be provided for y three eXhau' fans permitting a continual suppl of fresh air in the auditorium. Ines fans will take care of the halcon and orchestra floors so that all par of the theater will be equally vel tilated.
 One of the most radical chang which brings the New Palace i'll II realm of modern theatcrs ls the r moval of the posts that are on U lower floor. In the days when u old Palace was built all thcate were constructed in this manne but theater construction has i'll u past few years become a science itself and the modern theater co talns no posts to obstruct the VIC from various parts of the house.

Says Many Ounces Will
 Be Great in Future

London, Fob. i3 GPl -- Charles Darwin and Sir Isaac Newton were backward children. it is pointed out by Dr. A, F. Trcdgold, specialist, who contends that many school lunccs of today will become great mon.
 "Tho dull boy who is made to wear the fools cap in classes in the future will he able to bcguile the tcdium of his ponance by reflect ing tha. his stupidity may some day make him famous" declared tho physician, addressing the womcn's sanitary inspectors at ! B,lford college,
 Tho backwardncss Of Newton and Darwin, he said, was due ia ! late development of their mental powers. His studies have convinced him that the boy who is a. duncc and who has not much intellect or capacity for learning. often has q large amount of common sense anl intelligence tucked away under hi scalp, and gets on in life better than the scholarship boy.
