MEET
 AT HOTEL ELTON
Dr Frank H. VizeteIIy Guest of Lions Club Toe
 morrow Night
NO NOON SESSION

Members of the Lions Club have perfected plans for the visit here at The Elton tomorrow night of pr Frank H. Vizetelly, famed 'lexi- cogra pher, author and radiologist.
 pr Vizetelly will speak at a sup per meeting which has been thrown open to the public so that all who desire may have an opportunity to
 hear the lecture. This is the first
 time that pr Vizetelly has ever lec- tured before a service club.
 Scores of educators will be among the audience as well as a large number of pupils from pri- vate and high schools hereabouts. Mayor Frank Hayes will head the reception committee with Horace
 D. Taft, headmaster of Taft school, Dr Michael Donovan, superintend- ent of schools, E. Robert Stevenson
 editor-in-c chief of the Republican Maloney, editor of The Waterbury Democrat and Miss Alberta A.. Edell, principal of Saint Margarets school, assisting. Supper will be served at 2 o'clock in the main dir- ing room, followed by the lecture. Dr Vizetelly has chosen as his sub- ject, "Words."
 Though local teachers and others have frequently travelled as far as New York to hear the noted lexi- cographer, he has been heard at Yale a number of times. He is be- ing brought here by the Lions club through the fact that he is an uncle of Mrs Bernhard Wilhelm, wife of one of the Lion club members. A naive request and hope that he would depart from his ordinary schedule and favor the Lions club with a lecture, amused the author and he promptly responded he would be glad to pay Waterbury a visit and to lecture here at the same time. He said he would have no objection if the Lions wanted to invite more of the public since it was quite likely he never would come here again.
 Though tickets are limited they may be obtained either at The FL ton, any member of the Lions or from D. T. Harrington, Jr, or Ber- nhard Wilhelm. The Lions com mmittee in charge of the arrange ments comprises: Daniel T. Far rington, Jr, Edward Becker, Frank Bailey, J. Francis Smith, Frank Mccoy, Dr E. H. Herr, E. Norton Decker, George J. Baronian, Will liam J. Slator and Bernhard Will helm.
 x Because of the Vizetelly lecture there will be no noon luncheon on meeting of the Lions tomorrow.

DIAMOND VALUE
 CHEERS BRITISH

London (UP)-Reports from Antwerp that the diamond mar kets are showing greater activity than for three years past are hailed with joy here, for British capital is heavily interested in the mining and marketing of these gems.
 Prices of ordinary stones have risen as much as 20 per cent in the past few weeks, and diamond stocks have been a firm feature in mining markets on the London exchange. There are at present more United States diamond buy CTS in Antwerp than for a very long time. and India and Italy also are buying in quantities.
 There is marked hesitancy here to give too much significance to the boom, although the trade has been steadily on the upgrade since June. It is felt that buyers may simply be profiting by the present low price of the stones, which now command only one- third of their 1928 value; and it also is remembered that many of the diamond companies. due to the past two stringent years, have dividends in arrears on their pre- ferred stock to wipe out before they can resume payment on the ordinary stock.

PARIS PLANS
 TWO FAIRS

Paris.-(UP)-Two great world expositions are planned for Paris during the next five years, a first worlds labor fair, in 1895, and the second International Decoration Arts exposition, in 1897. They will be followed by a third Internation- al Colonial exposition before 1940.
 Modern decorative arts, partic- ularly in furniture, interior deco-i rating, jewelry and architectures have changed so rapidly that the lines which existed in 1925, the epoch of the first arts exposition, are sadly out of fashion.
 That exposition developed mOd- ern arts to such an extent, how- ever, that it is felt second expo- sition is necessary to carry on this development. Unlike the first ex- position, the next one may not be held right in the heart of Paris. with the buildings covering the Esplanadesd Invalides and near by streets and bridges. A site at the edge of Paris is favored, so that some permanent buildings may remain.
 The labor fair is intended to re-. vive the trades and corporations of other centuries, to re-establish the bands of each branch of indus try. It will also revive the great labor fetes of the European calen- dars of the days of kings and serfs I--the annual harvest fetes, grape picking parties, and other celebra- tions which went out with the rey- olution.

State Brings Brown of Culver
lH. B. Warner Brilliant in Role of Father

The color and splendor of one of the couhtry's greatest military schools forms the background for
 from Brown of Culver" the high | ly interesting Universal drama which begins a four day engage ment at Warmers State theater this afternoon.
 Much of the picture was filmed at the Culver Military academy in Indiana, and there are inspiring
 scenes of almost a thousand cadets marching as units of infantry, ar- til1ery and cavalry. In these pic- turesque surroundings is told a story which is always filled with interest, and at times with quail ity of drama that grips the spec ] tator..
 Tom Brown. a young man of 19, plays the title role, and he &C., quits himself in. a manner which stamps him as an actor of un- usual ability. H. B. Warner is, as always, excellent in his role as the boys father. and Slim Summer vile is his usual jovial self as the ex-sergeant who is still re-living his part in the great war. Others who do good work are Ben Alex ander, Richard Cromwell, Tyronne Power, Jr, Dick Winslow, Kit Guard, Sidney Toler. Willard Rob- ertsan and Dick Winslow, while | William Wyler must be credited with an outstanding job as the
 director of the picture. < In From Brown of Culver" Tom. who supposes himself to be an or- phan, is befriended by the Ameri- can Legion and sent to Culver where he is the center of many interesting adventures. Eventually his father, who has been awarded a posthumous Congressional Medal of Honor for his supposed heroic death in France, turns up with the confession that he really cracked l.under the strain of bombardnent 1 and deserted. This situation, and the way it is solved. forms the high point in the story. ,t There is not a woman in the cast of From Brown of Culver but as a story of young manhood l it Is at times inspiring, and loses nothing through the absence of t"the girl"
 "rom Brown of Culver" is an Unusually fine picture, and one which you will enjoy to the ut
 most.
 A special surrounding program of equal merit has been booked
 to accompany this Sdrring feature presentation.

MARY GARDEN
 COMING BACK
Returns From Corsica,
 Where She Went to Ride a Mule'-To Give : Carmen Again at
 Cleveland
BY NEA Service

Temptestuous Mary Garden, for
 two decades Americas most color

 opera with booming firecrackers as
 her accompaniment!
 Mary, the embodiment of inde-
 pendence herself, couldn't have

 fickle Spanish gypsy girl who is
 stabbed to the heart by her lover,
 Jose.
 The prima donna is coming from
 Corsica, where she retreated more
 than a year ago ito write book

 grand opera stage in Cleveland
 where 10000 persons each evening
 will hear one of the most unusual
 opera presentations ever produced. In Cleveland's huge stadium the nights of June 29 and July 4, Mary again will sing the role she loves. The Chicago Civic opera was the vehicle for Mary's rise to soprano stardom which began sensationalll at the Opera Comique in Paris in 1900. Scheduled to make her debut in Garner she was called from the wings one night to sing the lead in the opera Louise" when the the prima donna was stricken i'll.
 Instantly her name jumped into the headlines and she gave 205 con- secutive performances of Louise, :" Returning to America after seven wears her first New York appear

 There too, she did "Salome." Even the critics were astonished at her dance of the wells. But 1t was in Chicago her girlhood resi- dence, where she returned in 1910 to become the favorite of opera goers that police banner her per- 1 formance of "Salome."

Greater Love
 Garden Feature
AM-Star Cast in Picture
 Opening Sunday

A story that exemplifies mans
 humanity to man is presented in "No Greater Love-" the Columbia picture showing at the New Gar den theater Sunday and Monday with an all-star cast in which are to be found such prime favorites as young Dickie Moore, Richard Bennett, Alexander Carr, Beryl Mercer, Alec Francis and Betty Jane Graham, little girl who is said to give an amazingly under standing performance. No Great CT Love" was adapted by. Isadore Bernstein from his own story, And God Smiled. The congested tene- ment section of a great city is the background and the plot is moti- |yated by lovc-a love so great that Eof itself. While No Greater Love" is set against a background of hard-working poverty, the situ- ation. is one that can exist among any class of people in any home. It is as broad as the world is wide, and as deep as the heart of human ity. Lew Seller directed the pie tures with emphasis on the heart appeal.
 Not so we'll known to the gen. era1 public as the famous Texas Rangers, but of great local fame were the Arizona Rangers, who, after having served their purpose of ridding their home state of out
 laws, bandits and cattle rustlers,
 were formally mustered out of ser vice in 1910. The last ride of the
 Arizona Rangers forms the theme of Bob Steele's latest starring drama, entitled Riders of the Desert" which is the companion attraction. Bob Steele will be seen as the son of an Arizona ranger who, although officially out of ser- vice, calls his men together for one last ride to clean up a desperate gang. Riders of the Desert" is acclaimed the fastest and most ex- citing of the many thrilling pic- tures starring Bob Steele. The taikie contains a wealth of spec- tacular riding, as dozen hair-rais- Ting stunts and a death- -defying
 ride. Supporting these two fine
 features are good short subjects.

lures in varied roles. Their ca- reers begin as soon as they arrive with their mother, Lita Grey Chaplin, from Nice.
 At the moment they are just two sun-tanned, carefree youngsters cavorting in the colorful French Riviera belt and being tutored in French. They are, of course. q bit too young to be affected by re: responsibilities of heirlooms of tai ent.
 However, the dotted line has been signed and there is no longer any question as to their immediate future. Winifred Sheehan, Fo1 film official, attended to that while In Europe recently.
 The two lads have been under critical and expert observation from time to time. Little effort was made to try any conscious per- forming. But they have been caught off-nand while playing and pranking and the reels taken have been carefully studied by film con- cern attaches.
 Film folk, while abroad, have dropped casually around to make notes. And the report on Broadway is that the brothers Chaplin will make their debuts as the two children in Noel Coward's 's spectacle, "Cavalcade", now: the rage of London. The children of this play are relatively minor char acters who mature during It's prog ress from the. Boer war period ai- most to the present time. : As
 There is a second report that they will be immediately turned over to David Butler who has had great success with young actors and who will give them prelim- mary schooling.
 Its grand chance--having Charlies two boys,'' Butler com- mented. Downright excit3ng-!'ts
 He had already expressed him. self enthusiastically in studio cir- cles after being shown intimate shots and news reels.
 All of which is glaringly con- trastful to the beginnings of that London lad who. i'll fed and i'll clad, wandered aimlessly in the back streets |. who stopped to dance for. street musicians at Ken sington Cross who climbed slowly to a chance in the music hall to become, at last, Charlie Chaplin, the worlds beloved clown.
 Chaplin himself, it would seem, has had little, if anything, to say of the arrangement. It is said to have been handled solely by his ex-wife, Lita. ~ yl 2 It is not known how Charlie will receive the news. But there arc those who predict that one day he may seek to bring his boys under his own magic difectorship; that he will watch each step of their progress from the sidelines, and bide his time. s
