The closing of the secason is very much re- gretted by the patrons, who have fermed an affectionate attachment for the players on account of the talent they have shown in the many weeks of super-excellent attractions. The Players themselves regret the hreak- ing of the ties of friendship made while here and have enjoyed appenr- ing before New Britain audiences, There is always a special interest in connection with the concluding per- formances. “Fifty Miles From Boston the show which made such a popular run in New York and Boston. The action {ranspires in Brookline, Mass., and serves to introduce some of the quaint characters of the place. So to the big town that the city folks run out and figure promi- nently in the action of the piece. “Joe Wescott,” the principal, is a Jlarvard man who made good on the college baseball nine and the towns- folks gather to welcome him back. “Wescott” holds in high esteem “‘Sadie Woodis,” the postmistress of the village, who is also the object of “PDavid Harrigan's” attention. Jeal- ousies and conspiracies are interwoven inte a most interesting romance, and still, throughout there is the vein of eomedy that has made Cohan famous. “Little Johnny Jones' wi]l be pre- sented this evening and the final matinee of the week will be given Saturday afternoon. It is a well- worth-while musical comedy, pre- sonted by a company of twentyv-five people and with all the spectaculur features of a New York attraction. Motion pictures will be the attrac- tion Sunday evening. The finest of feature filmg will be shown. Charley Chaplin will be here, FIVE ACTS OF MERIT ON KEENEY'S BILL is rural near is it uncommon merit, all of them novel, light and entertaining, constitute the vaudeville program at Keeney's this week. The show is one of the strongest that the management has offered in a long time and it is meeting with high favor. Despite the spring weather which makes in- doors anything but attractive, the Keeney audiences continue large, a condition which testifies to the strength of the bill. It is conceded that all the acts are good and when combined serve to make up a Dpro- gram that is hard to duplicate. Topping the bill are the Two Wil- lards, a pair of circus performers, who have but recently made their advent in vaudeville, This team does some remarkable chair and table balancing. | They work on top of a series of tables,, | executing some feats that are both | difficult and hazardous. Three good musical acts, the tn-\ lenial Trio, Bernie and Herman and | Bernard and DeHaven also contribute Five acts of Apartment house living much to teach efficiency the modern waman. this truc in the has done methods to Particularly is putting away of a season’s garments, the limited stor- age spuce for articles not in actual use necessitating systematic labelling and inventorying, if time is to be saved later on. The keeping of eral storage room, notl always of access, has accustomed taking an inventory of of each trunk. A loose arandum hook is used by keepers for this purpose. contents of a trunk page is removed and a fresh one substituted on which is the new in- ventory. Such a book is kept with the trunk keys. This method en. ables any person to make an intel- ligent visit to the trunk room and quickly find the desired articles. Efficiency methods have taught the modern woman the deairability of tagging each trunk with a conspic- uous number. “Trunk No. 4" may sound le. intimate than “mother"s old black trunk.” but it is more defi- nite and less likely to create con- fusion. In a large family, where the trunk numbering habit obtainas. the men of the 'family have the odd numbers and the women the even ones. This is &0 well understood that no time is ever wasted in run- ning through the inventory of Trunk No. 2, if father's things are want- ed, and Na. 3's list is not bothered with if the desired garments belong to mother. trunks in a gen- easy women to the contents leaf mem- many house- When the are changed, the their own way. The comedy features predominate throughout the piece, the laughs following in such rapid suc- cession that they become almost con- tipual, Manager Thatcher has pro- vided a pretentious production for the plece and it seems destined to become the most popular rural comedy in which the Players have appeared. This week's production, “The Big Tdea,” is drawing capacity -crowds which are delighted with the excel- lent presentation of the Cohan and Harris success. BELASCO PLAY \Y/ILI BE AT FOX’S TWO DAYS Some vears ago. Davil Belaseo pro- duced “The Heart of Maryland”’ at the Herald Square theater, New York. Almost on the same day years later, the Tiffany Motion Picture corpo fien produced the self-same play as a rnotion picture production and usc: tiie same star Mr. Belasco used, with the result that twenty-two recognized dramatic critics in the grest metropo tewards the entertainment. The Co- lonial combination have a high clas specialty. They are singers of ex- ceptional ability and in both classical and popular selections they find great favor. The other two acts are snappy and full of live patter, as well as new songs. High class juggling is introduced by the Four Maxines. This is the extra attraction on the bill, The pictures ara up to the minute in every respect and they are fully ap- preciated. MADELINF MOORE BACK IN POLI CAST Miss Madeline Moore, the popular member of the Hartford Poli Players whe has been ill since early in the season, returns to the cast next week when the Players present the cork- ing rural comedy, “Mrs. Wiggs of the (‘abbage Patch,” that unrivaled pro- duction which is a continual laugh from start to finish, Miss Maore, it will be remembered, was taken sud- denly i1l several weeks ago and was obliged to receive medical attention foy some time, She has now fully re- cevered andasreturns to the cast with renewed vigor and ambitions. She is sure to be welcomed by the Poli | patrons who grew to admire Miss Moore's work during the time she was with the Players. Miss Moore returns before Hartford audiences in a play that proved to be one of the most laughable of all the rural comedies, not excepting such hits as “Way, Down ¥ast,” “The New Minister” and the others in which the Poli Players have appeared this season. While local playgoors have witnessed this play on several occasions, it tells a story that will interest théatergoers forever, it seems. It is a.perfectly human story and lis enacted by human be- inge-—the kind who live real lives in 'UNITY HALL MONDAY EVENING, MAY 10TH AT 8:15 O'CLOCK HAROLD BAUER MASTER PIANIST RECITAL Reserved Seats $1, $1.25 and $1.50, on sale at Gallup & Alfred’'s Music store, 201 Asylum St., Hartford, saturday morning, May 1st, 1is stamped that corporation s one of {he foremost producing companies of the screen and stamped thelr produc- tien, “The Heart of Maryiand.” as a clagsic.
