INSIDE STORY

 MONDAY CAME AND
 THEY WE'RE ALL THERE
 Monday came at last, and every body who was anybody on the Hellman lot was again called into the chiefs palatial office. They were all there, only Eddie was missing. He was tending the outer office waiting to usher in the new find when she arrived.
 At last the door opened, but it was only Eddie, and he was alone.
 "A dame to see you, MT Hellman, he said.
 Hellman turned a dull purple. What do you mean, a dame? Have you no respect for a real lady when you see one?,
 Eddie just looked at him, but there was something in that look that gave him pause. Hellman arose and mumbled something about being back in minute, and followed Eddie out.
 The person in question was just about to invade his office. Hellman closed the door hurriedly.
 In front of him stood a creature whom Eddie had rightly described as "a dame." Hellman's surprise was not lost on her and she beam ed on him and told him jubilantly: "You wouldn't of known me, would you, MT Hellman?"
 Weakly, Hell,nan shook his head.
 q thought not. No one wants to believe that I'm the old Hattie Nessel, 53 years old, with two mar ried daughters. The butchers wife told me I don't look a day over thirty-five.
 "B-but what happened to you?" stammered Hellman. You're not the same person I engaged to play last week." -e
 T should think not" said Mrs Nessel triumphantly. Ut cost me plenty to get to look the way l do now, bt if I'm going to be a movie actress it's worth it, say I. Not that my daughters didn't help. One of 'em works in beauty par for and she put me wise to a few tricks. so I went on diet-I lost

 Montgomery Hellman stood, stricken. Before him was a loudly dressed, bedizened, painted figure, and behind him, in his office, was his whole staff waiting for the great mother, the knockout super mother, who was to revolutionize Loves Sacrifice"
 But this was no time for hesita- ton. What had to be done must be done quickly. He reached for his checkbook and shot Eddie look, beseeching silence.
 
 Whats happened to Montie?' asked visitor to the Hellman lot recently. Hes not himself at all"
 Eddie Sprague answered dis creetly: q dunno. It must be the weather. Maybe he's getting the grippe"

 The protests have been laid be- fore the President, he said, with request that the effect of such con-. solidation upon the coast guard should be carefully studied before a decision is made.
 Friends of the coast guard have informed the Senator that the na- ture and purpose of the service is entirely different from the naval service, and the application of naval policies would have a dis turbing effect. Moreover, Connecti- cut is apprehensive over the effect of such 6 consolidation upon the coast guard academy at New Lon- don and other facilities which might be altered under navy con- trol.

NATIONAL CHEESE
 WEEK UNDERWAY
Connecticut Begins Obser-
 vance To-day - C0n= sumption Emphasized

Hartford, Dec 11--"Eat cheese this week and if you must have something to drink with it, use your own judgment but don't for. get to do your part to aid the dairy industry by eating cheese" was the admonition of Commissioner of Agriculture Olcott k. King i'll an- nouncing the beginning Of National Cheese week in Connecticut which will officially end Saturday night. Commissioner King has en- dorsed the program of several governors to exterminate the "big pad wolf'-or perhaps a pack of wolves-that is frightening the dairy industry. One of the major threats to an early recovery of the dairy industry is the surplus cheese and other dairy products now be- ing held in storage.
 Connecticut is primarily a fluid milk producing state and Commis- sioner King points out that the benefit to our industry from Ma tional Cheese week will be positive although of an indirect nature. The goal set is to eliminate 30,- 100000 pounds of surplus cheese. the equivalent of 300,0OO,00O pounds of milk, from the market which has done much to depress prices and retard other efforts to asits the dairy former.
 It is hoped that each family in Connecticut will increase their consumption of chesse this week by one pound. The commissioner believes that if each one does his part VIC will materially assist those agencies that are working directly for the benefit of Connecti- cut dairy farmers.
 Merchants, hotels and restau- rants through displays, 'chesse" speeials'' and menu are cooper ating to make 1t easier for the con sumers to secure their aditional pound of cheese this week. AL through many weeks and days are set eside for the special observance of specific products, this is the first time that National Cheese Week has made its appearance on the calendar and dairymen through out the state are hopeful that 1t may eventually return to them some of the benefits which its sponsors expect.

.CHEVALIER HAS BABY AS C0STAR.
 IN NEW PICTURE.
New Screen Infant Almost Steals Show Now Play
 ing at Capitol

Maurice Chevalier, after telling bedtime stories to some of the worlds most beautiful women in his previous motion pictures, picks on a brand new type to play oppo- site him in his newest film, "A Bed Time Story" which opened at the Capitol Theatre last night. His new co-star is Baby Leroy, as sun ming a one-year old child as has ever tried the screen as a pro- fession. This charming infant, for young as he is, he has plenty of charm. was picked from among thousands of competing youngsters on the coast, for his part. It is said that Chevalier was so de- lighted with the babe that he wanted to adopt him after he fin ished the picture.
 Helen Twelvetrees. Edward Ever cit Horton and Adrienne Ames are among those who supported Chew alier and Baby Leroy.
 "A Bedtime Story presents the star in new type of character ization - a about town who discovers as much fun in romano ing at the family fireside as in the saloons about town Awaken ing comes when he finds an aban- doned baby in his car when he is returning to Paris from hunting in Africa. The youngster is so charming that he decides to raise it himself and sends for a nurse to help in the task.
 The picture reaches an amusing climax when he descends on his fiancee's chateau, followed by baby, nurse and the rest of his menage Somehow, the Iiancee just doesn't understand But the nurse does and the ending is happy.

GREAT PICTURE
 OF WORLD WAR IS SHOWN HERE
The Big Drive Authentic Visual Record of Grim
 Tragedy at Coliseum

There was long, long trail a. winding" behind that far-flung front in France.
 And in "The Big Drive" great est of all pictures of the World War because of it's very authenti- city, which now is showing at the Coliseum theatre, one realizes just what that long, long trail meant.
 A division is shown on the march. It is winter-time in Elan ders. The road is a river of mud, churned by the hobnailed shoes Of thousands of doughboys. T h e countryside had been stripped by a hurricane of steel. The sky is overcast and the ground is fleck- ed with drifted snow. So far as the eye can reach the road is damned with men. Infantry men sog along. The caissons roll, hub deep, in mud. The M. P's" do their best to keep the column moving.
 Just one of the remarkable pie lures which make up "The Big Drive"
 For stark realism, no picture ever shown can compare With this. Every foot of the thousands of feet of film is authentic, supplied by War Departments of eight different nations which were par ticipants in that great struggle.
 For millions of men "The Big Drive" recalls the greatest exper- fence in their lives. For many more millions it makes the war an actuality.
 "The Big Drive" is a wonderful film, showing the World War, not as the romanticists picture it, but as it was. grim, and horrible. This film gives a visual record of the worlds greatest tragedy. One follows the progress of German troops, from the first days of the war, through Belgium, is witness to the demolition of cities, the pitiful flight of refugees.
 The audience follows those weary years of trench fighting, and then Americas entry. Probably half Of the picture embraces scenes of Americas participation with the climax coming with the battles of the Argonne and St. Mihiel.
 "The Big Drive" which is an outstanding indictment against war will be shown at the Coli scum Theatre tonight, on splen- did program which also includes selected shorts.
