$500 NEEDED FOR
 CHRISTMAS TOYS
Salvation Army Kettles Now on Street. First Day Under Average

1 The Salvation Army Santa Claus returned to the streets today and will continue to stand alongside of the army kettles from now until Christmas. hoping that the generous hearted Christmas shoppers will help fill up the kettles and thus bring some happiness into almost cheer less homes.
 The sum Of $500 Is needed for the Salvation Army Christmas. Toys and candy will be needed for hun- dreds of youngsters whose only Santa Claus stops at the barracks at 11S Arch street. Here Ensign Carl Fredrickson and his wife and other helpers will do what they can to bring sunshine into the hearts of the boys and girls who have been missed by their patron saint.
 Last Saturday the kettles did not take in their share. The sum of $40.13 was taken in. A year ago the first day brought in more than $50.
 The first large check towards this fund has been received from the Canonicus Branch International Sunshine society for $50. A check for s5 has been received from Martha Chapter, Order of Eastera Star.
 The newly organized Salvation Army band. although not yet uni- formed. will make its first public appearance at concert in the Sal vation Army hall December 31.

Miss Hazel Atwater, who plays the part of Mrs. Murray in May time in Erin" Is the youngest mem Der of the cast, but she has had much experience in dramatics. She has appeared in Going Up" and Don't Ask Me" for the American Legion, and also in the Mohawk Minstrels. Her dancing was a fea- ture of the Shamrock Revue given this year by the St. Joseph's parish society. Miss Atwater is a member of the Beta Mu sorority of the New Britain High school and is popular with the younger set.
 As Mrs. Murray. the charming young widow, who is anxious to marry Miles O'Dowd. she exercises all her natural attractiveness, but in vain, for the hero prefers the simple country lass, Patricia O'Neil. The part is one calling for the dem onstration of all the wiles of the modern vamp, and Miss Atwater leaves none untried in her efforts to ensnare her ideal.
