The New Britain to announce today that it has ar-| ranged for the presentation, at the! Lyceum theater, May 15 and 16, of a series of films depicting scenes in the | battle areas of Europe taken under | the auspiceg of the New York Sun and known as the most famous pictures of the war in existence today. A lee- | turer who is thoroughly familiar with cenditiong will accompany the pie- tures and lecture upon them. It is seldom that people are brought into! “Herald”, is able of warfare as New Britain people will be upen the showing of the reels and the opportunity to witness the stir- missed. The New York Sun’s plcluru “ere| shown in Carnegle Hall, New York, for ten weeks, and Tremont Temple, | Boston, for five weeks, where they | were the talk of the town. The scenes caught on the 7,000 fect of film would be impossible to recite. Among the features shown are the fiy- ing of Zeppelins over the outskirts of | Paris, civil panic in the form of a run on a national bank of Brussels, artil-! lery battle outside I.ouvain, the en- gagement of German and British | ships, German army entering Brussels, Belglan-German fight at Namur, sur- rénder of Brussels to the Germans, | fleld guns in action near Antwerp, the blcwing up the bridge at Lys, terror stricken ‘inhabitants fleeing from the city, the speeding armor motor cars, which have done sp. much damage to | German Uhlans; the armored train at | Arvin firing broadsides as it ‘passes ! (the daring photographér 'was stand- ing 6n the tab of the engine unpro- tected), the bombardment of Ghent, motor busses of all nations passing Ypres on the way to Roulers and sev- eral hundred other details of the great strife, In view of the distance between the armies and the long range fighting in the war by telephonic orders and auto- mobile messengers, the scenes are most extraordinary. One can plainly seasthe allies and Germans in actual battle. For the first time in history non- cembatants can sit in the comfort of+4 a ‘theater chair and witness all the detalls of civilization In convulsion and hisfory in the making. To ob- tain these motion pictures on the fir- ing line the photographer is forced to face shot, shell, hunger, cold, execu- tiop, disease and all the horrors and h"col‘L\'En‘Pn(Gs of war. \\'h’le cavalry and infnnlry charges are shown widh desperdte men storm- . ing trenrhos}\elr\ by an equally déupe- rate enemy, artillery duels and eanh- works filled with soldiers firing upon | each other, lighter touches are also shown! In almost every picthire illustrating the flight of non-combagants from the war-torn- sections the h.puselmld pets of the refugees impart a touch of comedy. For instance,. the friendly and hospitable Belgian dogs welcome the invading Lverman hosts with tails awag. The children contribute relief from the somber and sordid tale of strife, for even in their pitful plight the round and ruddy youngsters cannot refrain from pranks. The entire story of the war is given ir a sequence of events which makes the entértainment a liberal education ang full report of ‘the terrible conflict across the water. SCHOOL MEETINGS TONIGHT.

Connecting with 140 TRUMBULL ST, McKee Seamless Porcelain Steel Lined REFRIGERATORS The two features of a reo- frigerator that make it either a money saver or & money waster are its insulation and its air cir- culation. No expense has been spared to make the McKee as “heat-proof” as a refrigerator can be made, And careful de- signing of ice and provision chambers has resulted in a steady and brisk circulation of cold air all through the re- frigérator, insuring the utmost economy in ice. Probably no other refrigerator gots as much cooling efficlency ocut of its ice as the McKee does. The McKee Seamless Porcelain-Stéel Lining is pure white, so hard-gurfaced that a knmife point wen't seratch it, and as easy 1o keep cleah as a china bowl. In making it, a special steel seamless body is covered with the porcelain liquid, then subjected to enor- mous heat, 111l steel and poreelain fuse together into practically one substance, Non-absorbent, no joints, no crevices, Exhaustive tests have proven that the most effective insulation is gained by buflding double walls, protected by waterproof sMeath- ing and hairfelt, with a dead-air space between. Neither heat nor cold can penetrate both the airtight space and the hairfelt. The careful Workmanship still further guards against air-leaks. The lever and gpring locks on all dcors aid materially in this. A few minutes spent in our store examining a McKee Refriger- ater will tell you more than the most complete printed deserip- tion, If you are one of the many people who think “refrigerators are all about alike,” let us show you how unfair that is to the Mc- Keée—and to yourself. We beleve we can cofivinee you that a Mo~ Kee will cost you less in the long run than any other refrigerator you could buy. C. C. Fuller Co. 40.56 FORD ST., HARTFORD. Overlooking Capito!
