The pa- trons of the popular playhouse, who made up last night's audience, were enthusiastic over the production and they weré outspoken in their praise of the film. The piece is one of a number furnished by the Famous Players company, with which ~ the Kecney management has made a con- tract. . Monday night “The Typhoon,” an- other five reeler will double with Charley Chaplin as the motion pic- ture program’s headliner. The same night there wilt be a Hearst-Selig re- vicw and the Pathe daily. This gives promise of being one of the finest pic- i ture programs given in this city in a | long time. In addition there will be the usual set of vaudeviile attractions Tonight, the entertainers, who have been holding the boards all week, will finish their New Britain engagements. All the acts are of a high order and they well deserve the praise that has been given them. FOX'S THEATER HAS “THE LAST CHAPTER” “The Last Chapter,” a story of love, romance and adventure, by Richard Harding Davis, with Carlyle Blackwell Blackwell in the stellar role will be the big attraction at Fox's tomorrow night, in conjunction with single reel comedies and dramas of that high grade order always seen at this pap- ular photo-play resort. The theme of the play deals with Gordon, a young war correspondent, who after being' wounded in the Jjungles of Africa, is picked up and taken back to England, by James Egerton, a wealthy rubber magnate who had been investigating conditions on his plantation. On the way home- ward the correspondent and Eger- ton's daughter, Alice, fall in love. In England Gordon finde in Lord Arbuth- ton a formidable rival for the hand of the girl he loves. ~ Gordon views with "great concern his titled rival's attention “to Alice, and at the first op- portunity asks her father's consent to their marriage. Egerton answers that he will never allow his daughter to marry a penniless man, but offers his daughter’'s hand and an interest in’ his business if he.will go to Africa and sucéésafully ‘solve the mystery of of the Tubber shortage. Gordon ar- rivés in ‘Africa and afier a series of thrilling adventures brings back successtul solution of ‘the problem, But he does not get his much coveted prize until he has suffered severely at the hands of Lord Arthbuton, who is iater killed in an accident. ¥ For thé ‘lagt times tonight at 7 P m. and at ' p. m.

They seem fated to be felt out. Quite frequently the second clase resents this isolation and points bit- terly at the first class. Why should they be continually invited and we only included now and then on sufferance? they ask. - Giving To Those Who Have. Now semetimes this state of affairs is the result of the seifishness and thoughtlessness of the people who have. They prefer to give to those from whom they may recelve again, to those to whom it is eAsiest to give, to those who also have. On the occasion of a certain big celebration when almost everyone was eager to reach a rather inaccessible point of inggrest, 1 heard a woman say, “No, we didn’t take out our ear at all. The Crad- docks wanted us to go in theirs, you know. We took them the last tim Think of the callous selfishness of it! X But there are other occasions when the pesple themselves are at least | partly to blame for their isolation, namely, when they are of the type who never seem to have a good time. " People Who Don't Have a Good Time. e | You take one of these people on an auto ride, you seek (o honor her by placing her on the front seat. She gsems uneasy and you find that she prefers to sit in back. It is necessary to pass through a rather unpleasant district on your way to the préttiest road you kmew. She does not fall to say how unfortunate it is that the city should permit such a dump to exist. F There is a light wind. She remarks with a deprecating laugh t‘lut it is unfortunate for the automobilist that wé have so much wind be- cause it is never so pleasant to ride in a wind. The road is being repaired in one of two places always fixing these roads,’’ she says. She is invariably cold or hot, and alwayk obvieusly so. Afraid She Will Be Late Home. g 1f she knows you well enough she has to get home at some set tithe, and just as you are approaching the loveliést part of the drive, begins to genteelly fidget lest you will not get her home on time. . Of course mone of her criticisme aré of anything for which yu(' . diréctly responsible and yet they make you feel vaguely uncomfortable. They seem a refléction upon what you are offering her. ¥ ;. 1f you take her to a play, she wonders why the chorus is not so pretty a8 it used to be, regrets that the leading man is not sufficiently attractive to supply a plausible motive for the r's love, or wishes they would nd}: play such worn-out music between the acts Vo . Of course she always thanks you aftérwards for her good time, but ho effusiveness of manner or phrase can make you believe that she really had one. Furthermore you are sure that you did not, either. Few are more depressing than the uneasy, critieal state of mind in which ¥ type of person always séems to be. e The result is that when you are on duty bound you may critical folks, but when you are out for a good timé you ask the'Solks that have good times, to have one with you and to help you haye one.
