MONTGOMERY is
STARRED AT PALACE

Lovers Courageous, which opens
today at the Palace, is story by
Frederick Lonsdale, whose works
we have become accustomed to as
sociate with the ultra -sophisticate.
In this new Robert Montgomery
starring vehicle, produced by Metro
Goldwyn-Mayer, Lonsdale looks at
life with a certain charm that
makes his story and characters
poignantly appealing
His tale is one of youth and ro-
nance, a tender and touching mar
rative, not lacking in typical Ions
dale humor, that makes the pic
ture a pleasure to behold in these
grim days.
The story is about young Eng
lishman who finds home life in
compatible with his ambitions. He
runs away and becomes a failure in
every job he tackles. He finally
lands in South Africa, where he
finds employment in a tobacco
shop.
There he meets the daughter of a
British admiral. When their inter-
est in one another is discovered, the
girl is dispatched home to England
to hasten her wedding to titled
barrister. On the eve of the we'd
ding, however, she goes to the youth
she really loves.
They defy all parental wrath and
face the future together, relying on
a nearly finished play to win bread
and shelter for them. Things go
from bad to worse. To spare his
bride further sufferings the youth
sends her to her parents home, &C
cepting their demand that he never
see her again. The play becomes a
hit and he reapS the long-Waited
fruits of success.
The supporting cast, Splendidly
selected, includes Roland Young,
Frederick Kerr, Reginald Owen and
Beryl Mercer.
The program of short featurettes
comprising the balance Of the
screen bill will include Charley
Chase in his newest comedy riot
"The Tabasco Kiss" a James Fitz-
patrick travel talk on ireland" and
a Lew White organlogue novelty en-
fitted THE Radio Revue" Also the
latest issue of the Hearst Metrotone
News.

FARCE OPENS
AT THE APOLLO

Strictly Dishonorable," often re-
ferred to as the most piquant and
provocative comedy yet to reach the
screen since the advent Of the
talkies, is the current attraction at
the Apollo, where it will remain
through Thursday next.
The film play of Strictly Dis
honorable" was adapted from Brock
Pemberton's stage success by Pres
ton Sturges, and the cast is head
ed by Paul Lukas, Sidney Fox and
Lewis Stone. Z
The stage play of the same name
is believed to be one of the most
successful productions during the
last two years, having closed long
run in New York very recently. 1t
also enjoyed successful engage
ments locally during the same pc
Rod of time, according to those
closely related to the local legiti-
mate stage circles.
The story concerns an innocent
southern girl and her pugnacious
fiance, who leaves. in jealous anger
when she casts admiring glances
at an Italian opera singer, whom
she meets under trying circum-
stances.
The sudden romance that bios
SONS between this great lover and
the deserted southern beauty is told
with daring and yet with utmost
delicacy, according to advance re-
ports. Laughter, tears and tingling
suspense tumble over each other in
delicious abandon.
The original play was written by
Preston Sturges, and the screen YER
sion is the work of Gladys Leh-
man, who also wrote the story for
'UniversaIs domestic drama, Seed"
In addition to Lukas, Stone and
Miss Fox. the cast of "Strictly Dis
honorable" includes George NIeeker
and William Ricciardi, who APP
peared in the New York stage pro-
duction. John M. StahI directed
the picture.

Robert Montgomery recently
played his first game of polo as a
member of regular team when the
Hollywood club to which he belongs
went to Santa Barbara to play a
'crack" team there.
When the opposition saw my
name on the team list they burst
into gales of laughter" Montgomery
related. "You see, they knew how
I play!"

the handicaps of their respective
families.
The girls parents are shrewd,
Immoral but jovial schemers whose
frank attitudes towards the facts
of life furnish much of the comedy
of the play. The father of the boy
and his coterie of friends are more
dignifed but also amusing.
THE Camel Through the Needles
Eye" is something of a novelty so
far as locale and settings are con-
cerned. The action of the play takes
place in the city of Prague and
begins in a cellar.
The second act is the ultra
moderniStic apartment of the young
man after it has been redecorated
to suit the tastes of Susi.
The third act is in model cream
cry which is operated like an Amer
lean soda fountain.
Lois Graham who in her two re-
cent appearances at the Playhouse
has won honors as a comedienne
and David Clarke as her lover have
the juvenile leads. The more robust
comedy is in the hands of Arthur
Beriault and Sara Lauter.

Thanksgiving Day, Nov. 24. 1892
 The subject of the Lesson Ser mon will be THANKSGIVING! f
 The Golden Text is taken from Psalms 69:30: "I will praise the name of God with Q song. and wiil magnify him with Thanksgiving.
 Bible readings include the fol- lowing passages, from Psalms 11S:24. 25&29: This is the day which the Lord hath made. we will reioice and be glad in 1t. Save now. I beseech thee, o Lord. beseech thee. send now prosperity
 o give thanks unto the Lord: for he is good: for his mercy endureth fo rever."
 Correlative readings from the Christian Science textbook, Science and Health with Key to the, Scrip tures,D by, Mary Baker Eddy in- ciude the following from page S:l -26, I've admit theoretically that God is good, ,omnipotent, amni- present, infinite. and then we try to give information to this infinite Mind. We plead for unmerited pardon and for liberal outpouring of benefactions. Are we really grateful for the good already re- ceived? Then we shall avail our. selves of the belss!ngs We have. and thus be fitted to receive more, Gratitude is much more chan n verbal expression of thanks Ac- ton expresses more gratitude than speech." &T4 NM

Faces are repainted,. missing arms or legs supplied, hair grown, dolls that have decided limp, dolls that look as though they were ready Tor the ash-can are made over and re- clothed and leave the work shop looking like new. With Faces lift- ed, new hair, new clothes and in some cases, with a complete set Of home furnishings, these dolls are sent to make some little girls in Waterbury happy at Christmas time. The Scouts ask girls, espe- cially girls who have a number of dolls, to make some other less for- tunate girl happy by giving some of their surplus dolls, and dolls furniture.
 For the boys, the Scouts need sleds, roller or ice skates, scooters. carts, airplanes. autos and toys Oi every description. Broken sled runners are mended or replaced by good ones from badly smashed sleds, missing wheels are supplied for scooters and every toy is put into first-class condition and re- painted before being given away at Christmas.
 Last Christmas the Scouts of this troop re-conditioned and gave away nearly six hundred toys. They find it harder this year to get the toys to recondition and therefore
 make this appeal to every boy and girl, who has extra playthings to share.
 Through the Kindness of Mayor,
 Hayes, the Scouts will conduct Craft Shop for a week beginning this coming Saturday at 85 East

$56,OOO WORTH
 OF GOOD LIQUOR WAS CAPTURED
Had Been Landed on Mass. Coast, But Two Prowl-
 ing Guardsmen DiscOy-
 cred It

Cohasset, Mass, Nov 23(U. P) Hundreds of rersons who were late in ordering tleir Thanksgiving liquor are going to be disappointed.
 Coast guards seized an unguard- ed holiday cargo of 700 cases of choice whiskies. valued at approx imately $56,000 at retail prices. on the beach here early to-day.
 The shipment apparently had just been landed by rum boats when guardsmen Arthur Olson and Walter, Dacy of the North Scituate station, on shore patrol in a light truck, discovered it.
 A search of the area failed to reveal any trace of the rum run ners or their vessel. It was believed they were frightened away by the lights of the approaching coast guard truck.
 The liquor was found on the un- occupied summer. estate of John Richardson, republican national committeeman of sachusetts.
