ORGAN INSTALLED AT FOX’S THEATER New Britain theatergoers will wel- come the announcement of the com- pletion of the mammoth $10,000 which has been in course of construction for the past six weeks, at Fox’s theater. Mon- day will inaugurate the use of the organ in conjunction with the excel- lent array of photo-play productions which have made the theater as popu- lar as it is now. It will also please the New Britainites that there will be no advance in prices with the use of the organ, the same popular prices of 211 seats, five cents in the afternoons and ten cents at the evening perform- ances, prevailing. Realizing the dull business conditions all over the country, due to the European war, Mr. Fox advised not to raise the admission scale, and while a program both musi- cal and for the calibre-of productions cffered, much Jarger prices are charged elsewhere, New Britain will | enjoy these added features at the same prices charged prior to the installa- tion of the mammoth organ. The management is not just ready to an- nounce the musical program which will be an ‘added attraction, as the in- tentions are to devote fifteen minutes of the daily program for organ re- citals, having some of the leading or- ganists render both the classics as well as the poputar melodies. A beautiful stage setting has been specially built running along similar lines to the much spoken of ‘“‘Strand theater” in New York, and New Britain can well boast of having one of the best motion pic- ture theaters throughout New Eng- . | land. and Tuesday Mr. Fox Breese, the eminent American actor and an all star cast of For Monday offers Edmund jJe film favorites in “The Walls of icho,” as the big stellar attraction des other singe reel comedies and dramas.

An accurate, testgd scale and a set of dry and liquid measures to pro- tect yourself against the dishonest tradesman? If not, you are less interested in honest weight than your city is. The mayor’s bureau of weights and meas- ures in New York has been carrying off to sea boatload after boatload of false scales and measures. They burned 3,000 short bushel baskets on the Wallabout Market square that New York housewives might be as- sured honest measurement. Equip Kitchen With Scale. The bureau asks in return that each housekeeper provide herself with a good scale and cautions her to keep her eye on the tradesman and his scale when she makes a purchase. g Do not allow your butcher to put his hands either upon the scale or the meat when it is being weighed. The moment your merchant puts his hand or knife on the scale or touches it in any manner you are being de- frauded. If you are buying a leg of mutton, for instance, be careful that the butcher doesn’t hold on with his hand to the meat and manipulate the scale. Meat Trimmings Are Valuable. Does your accommodating butcher trim away certain portions of fat and meat and bone from your steak? Notice then that he does it after he has weighed it and charged your for the trimmings at the rate of twenty- eight cents a pound. These trim- mings he deposits 1 a box under the counter and sélls’ the next morning for seven or eight cents a pound. The purchaser should insist upon ‘the trimmings being included with the meat. If the butcher can sell them to some one else they 'must have some value in your home. The fat can be rendered into lard; the bones can be used in soup, and any careful house- wife can find use for trimmings of meat. The disinterested woman who leaves her buying to servants or merely telephones her order is part- |1y to blame when her pounds are short and her quarts but little more than pints. Your steward or ser- vant girl may be honest, -and “then again, such a thing as a servant act- ing in collusion with a dishonest mer- chant to defraud has been heard of in New York. Every woman should interest herself actively in the buy- ing for her household, unless she is not concerned about fruitless waste of her household allowance. “Don’t be afraid to carry a bundle unless you are prepared to stand the expense of having it delivered to your home,” says the New York commis- sioner of weights. Do Your Marketing in Person. ‘“A great many bakers who will willingly deliver your bread to youry house are delivering you a lighter loaf than the same character of a loaf purchased from the counter and car- ried home. This same is true of a Some- pay the expense of a If you are will- ing to bear it, well and good. But by going into the shops to make your purchases yourself you can protec vourself against both fraud in quality of the goods as well as in weight and measures.” The bureau of weights and meas- ures warns the buyer against the mer- chant who gossips. Your grocer may have a gift for small talk, but what he is saying may be so interesting as body has to to keep attention from the scale. “If you must gossip with the butch- er and grocer,” says the commissioner | of weights, “at least wait until your | and ! then your little talk will ot cost you | commodity has heen weighed, anything.” Is Yours a Bullying Tradesma Perhaps you have a bullying tradesman, ‘and you are afraid to in- sist upon your rights. The commis- sioner of weignts tells you to just re- member that your butcher is not the only butcher or your baker the only baker. Competition is keen enough. to warrant your insisting upon proper . weight and quality. Your merchant knows this and he wants to hold your trade.
