EATER wice Datly. Players. M. OUT YONDER” 10, 20, npounG T BVERY SUNDAY e - Dflm’ 30, 80e, lews for Theatre Goers and Closing Schools in Summer Locks ALBERT CHEVALIER IN THE MIDDLEMAN Albert Chevalier, noted for his fine ¢haracter impersonations. will be seen in the leading role of Cyrus Blenkarn, in the Henry Arthur Jones play *“The Middleman” when it ap- pears at Fox’s tomorrow and Thurs- day, in conjunction with the latest chapter of “The Romance of Elaine.” Cyrus Blenkarn is a most remarkable role which Albert Chevalier handles in a most noteworthy manner. Jane Gail an English actress of superla- tive emotional powers gives him ex- cellent support. The play has a pow- erful story to unfold it; it is a hu- rman document that never fails to tention of every man, woman .and child, it is reality, life, love, devo- tion; paternal affection, parental suf- fering, parental forgiveness, amid all the trials of purental ahguish for the daughter that was betrayed, whose shamo is made the subterfuge to control the brains ingenuity and Inventive genius of this truly great man, Cyrus Blenkarn. As powerful as the play was, more powerful it is made’ as a plcturized story, for every detail is brought out clgnrer more sucintly and' more intclligently than was possible in the stage version, “Tho audience was stunned” said a well known critic when “Fine Feath- ers” played on Broadivay. The pow- er of the story, the coming of temp- tation to the wife of the young engi- neer, his acceptance of inferior ce- ment for the construction of the Pecog dam to satisfy his wife’'s mon- ey demands, the bursting of the dam and the destructivn of a city make a photo-play that is even more grip- ping than the sage success. “Fine Feathers,”” with Jane Beecher in tie title role will be shown for the last times tonight. The Pathe News will also be shown as well as some very carefully selected single reel comedies GABY DELYS KEENEY FEATURE TOMORROW Great interest atténds the an- nouricement made today that Gaby Deslys, the international star, will be | Bowling, | seen in ‘“Her Trlumph,” a big Froa- ondarful Maine Provinces the Popular and Com- .

Famous Musical Organization Will Glve Coneert Tomorrow Evening, New Britain is to be favored with a visit from the famous Souyth Man- chester Salvation Army Silver band, which will give a concert in the Sal. vation Army hall, 315 Church street tomarrow evening at 8 o'clock. The tand is composed of thirty-five mem- bers, all of whom are soldiers in the Salvation Army. They work at their varfous .trades for a living and give their evenings and Sundays to playing thelr instruments for ihe honor and glory of God and receive no remuner- ation for their services as bandsmen. Some of them have been members of this band gince it first organized over twenty-five years ago and many of the members are the second generation. Apart from the instrumertal séc- tion of the band they have a very fine male chorus which will render several selectians. Readings will also be given, and altogether a very fine pro- gram will be rendered. It will be re- membered that this band gave & sim- lar concert in New Britain about-a year ago. i1- er. ok ne it PANAMA OANAL TOLLS $4,000,000.

Children pier—High School (By Henrietta Rédman in New York Tribune.) Can children go to school all the year round and be healthier and hap- pler than they are with two or three months of vacation? Can teachers teach eleven months of the vear and have more joy of living and working than they have now? Bducators in New York are asking and answering these questions from vatrious points of view. “Of course, the all-year school is coming,” says Professor James E. Lough, director of the New York uni- versity summer school. “A first class school simply provides for young peo- ple opportunities for delightful and cducative activity suitable for their age. “If we close these schools in sum- mer we are locking the children out of their world. Dreary Schools Another Issue. “Of course if the schools are dreary and oppressive, if children are driven to distastefu] tasks, we must close the schools to give the youngsters relief. But such schools are unfit for children for any part of the year. “Consider + what all-year schools would ‘mean to young people!” Dr. Lough continued. | “Eight years’ work woyld be done in six. “At least twa years more al efficient life would be given to every child. Think what that means. Time is the most precious thing in the universe, Lose a year and yeu can never get it back. Rockefeller himself can't buy an extra minute. “But by organizing all-year uehoolu in New York we can give the public school children forty milllon minutes which are being wasted naw in tinor- ganized activities. We can add to the productive lives of New York workmen ten thousand years.” “But you wouldn’t approve of all. year schools of the present type, would you?” I urged. “Certainly n " Dr. Lough replied emphatically. '‘Our schools are over- loaded with ‘drill’ That is what causes the strain upon teachers as well as pupils. Too Much Drill. ““Our course of study {n school aré deadened by this over-development of drill, The study of .a subject which leads us to: understand and enjoy it according to- our abilities is, strictly speaking, education. Picking out of @ subject points which we believe to be fundamental, like dates in history, for.example, and foreing the children to 80 over them repeatedly till they havé memorized them in drill.

Would Need an Extra Teaching Corps. “If the value of summer schoals for the children could be proved,” said Miss Goller, “‘they possible for the teachers unless the city can maintain an extra corps. “The exceptionally strong people might be able to stand the strain of all- year teaching for a few years, but many would not be able to stand it at all, undergo so serious a strain.” “You think eleven months too long a school year for the teachers?” I asked. Nervous Strain Too Great. "l do indeed,” said Miss Goller. ‘‘Be- fore 1 became a teacher I was a bus- iness woman and I used to laugh at the ‘easy times' the teachers had. I couldn’t understand why they should ever be tired or nervous working five hours a day, five days a week and ten months a year. ‘“But when I became ‘a teacher I discovered that the strain of teaching makes it a different kind of work from any other that I have ever exper- {enced. ' - “If 1 could take the girls to whom I am teaching commercial subjects into a business office for part of the time and teach there I believe the strain upon me would be relieved, because the girls would know the exact use of everything I am trying to teach them and the value of themselves of learn- in git. - It should not have to over- come their resistance to what I.am téaching them. N Need of All-Year Schools Proved. “The need of all-year schools has been proved. “Haw can scheol condjtions be changed so that teachérs can work at their profession with the enthusiasm Unparalled | of doctors, lawyers and artists? Ir they can do this I think that they will be able to work for longer peried than they do now. Best Teachers Least Fatigued. “I find that the teachers who have the most ideas and are freest to work them out work the hardest and are the least fatigued. I myself am will- ing to work eleven months a year, but I am nat willing to ask any one else to do it.

Although the play is woven nboul. the sea, or at least the seashore, theré is nothing of the invigorating twang of the salt air about it. = It is sim- ply a mixture of hero, heroine, and & ghost-like villain, with two sub- heroes and sub-heroines thrown in for #0ad measure. - The play is by Pau- line.
