In The Local
Theaters
Stage Show a
Palace p|eases

Last night the Palace presented
4 stage show that We'd with any
ever seen In town in regards TO va
Fiefy. entertainment, talent ana
general amusement, and the an
nouncement that q greater seiec-
tion OF talent would be present next
week, was cause for applause.
The screen part OF the program
lived mp to all the promises made
for It, the first feature TITS Great
to be Alive featuring Gloria Stu
art, Raoul Rulien. Edna May
Oliver, Joan Marsh and Herbert
Mundlin, proved to be one q those
delightful comedies interpreted
with music, snappy dialogue and
good dancing.
The second feature brought back
to the screen of the Palace theater
a perennial favorite, George o.
Brien, the peer of outdoor stars, IN
a story by Zane Grey and as usual
this talented star gives q perform
ance that ranks with the best he
has ever done, one thing Is sure
whenever you have the combination
of O'Brien and q Grey story you
have the best obtainable entertain
ment, not the cheap and shoddy
films that are passed off as tales
of the west, with impossible stu
atoms, and in which the star. al
ways has q double, to do the hard
work, that is one thing with o.
Brien, whenever there Is q chance
to be taken he does 1t himself.
What sounds like the best the
atrical news in Waterbury since the
showing here of Sunny Side Up"
is the announcement Of the Palace
that they have secured for show
ing this Saturday, Sunday. Monday

Easter cards on display in most of the stores and shops this year have q manner all their own. Col- ors, and designs Jointly connive to achieve 6 variety of distinctive ef- fcctg.
 Take colors, for instance. Gone are days when pale yellow mad lavender, with an occasional touch of green, were the conventional Eastertide hues. One of this sea- sons smartest innovations is a new deep blue that appears not only as a background color and in fornl groupings but in solid-color cards and enveloues as wcllThcn there Is gay ccrige and soft ash-rose tones elto wruns the chromatic scale fro mIemon to deep apricot, and tho traditional lavender makes m up-to-dato appearance ns orchid. Particularly distinctive Is tho wide new uso of silver.
 Designs Quiet
 Designs arc uniformly character izcd by quiet restraint. RcficctinB this trend, many of the cards de- Iiberately set themselves to create an effect of old-faShioned quaint ness. Backgrounds arc precisely sprinkled with polka-dots or con- vcntionalized flowers in tho all- over designs of tho Victorian era. Damsels take their Easter promen- ado in volumlnous skirts and pan talcttcs. Wood-block prints have an oldcn-time air.
 Many Religious Subjects
 Cards of religious inspiration arc notably more numerous this year. Many quote Biblical texts. and others voice their message in for maj tone. Crogs-shaped cards are numerous, and in others the cross is q frequently recurring motif, either as the central design or in the background. ono card. for ex- ample, shows q spray of lilies In white and silver and black, against a background of soft violet pat termed with silver crosses. The verses on the inner page. under radiant eros of silver, reads: May all the joy of the Resurrection be in your heart"

SOCIALIST PARTY
 DEFENDS VETS
Twenty Per Cent Cut Dis- cussed at Meeting Held
 Last Night
THE VICTIMS OF WAR

Several veterans of the World war, now members sf the social- ist party of Waterbury, at It's reg ular meeting last night brought to the attention of the members the unjust cut of 20 per cent in veterns' compensation for service connected disability of any kind physical or mental; and asked the party to voice its opinion of such drastic action. Continued discussion brought forth the fact that voter ans in hospitals have also been forced to accept severe cuts in com pensatlon and travelling expenses to and from hospitals. Other vet vcranB with sevice-connected disa- bilities that may need hospitalIza- ton in tho near future arc alsa denied the privilege of entering government hospitals.
 Another point explained was that under the so-cnllcd "economy act". widows and ophnns of deceased veterans hre denied any pension or support from tho government. whatsoever. It was voiced, gcncr- ally, by the members that while tho socialist party is opposed to all wars of aggression and also wars fostered and promoted by the dor minant capitalistic class for tho purpose of securing markets for their manufactured was imple- ments and materials, yet 1t real izes that we are dealig with con- dition. not q theory--that his was has actually taken place, that we have tens of thousands of war vet erans injured, gassed, shellshockod md many more with mental dis cases, others forced to work at strange labors and callings for which they arc untraiped and un- 1t, in fact q good share of our soldier boys returned to civil life have found thefnselves out of step with tho new conditions that had arisen. and will never have the opportunity in life they would have had. had this war never occurred.
 The general expression of opin- ion voiced and manifested by tho speakers present. was that the of nll tho people for proper treat ership of utilities, such as trans- pOTtHtlOu, IIBHt uHu pOWCT, Icic- phones ard gas, municipal, gardens upon which tho unemployed. all of them if necesBary. shall be put to work. or tho welfare of the war veterans as regards. proper compcn- satlon for themselves, their de- pendants, widows and orphans. and hospltallZation. can only be ob- taied through m aroused public opinion working through and with tho socialist party.
