By the way, Walt know it,” she asked Nicoll. “No, T didn’t tell him. But i imag- ine friend husban@ will be rather merry at your dropping the business woman role for a while and being just a wife—eh, what? He always talks that way.” Janet was too absorbed in her problem to resent the tiny hint of a slur that might or might not have been an intentional part of Nicoll's remark. She insisted firmly upon leaving Hill Farms Inn that very af- ternoon, and went to her room di- rectly lunch was over to ~pack and make ready for the motor trip home- ward. She gladly left Nicoll and Mrs. Crafton to amuse themselves for a few hours. Dorothea and two idle- rich young friends of hers promptly drew Nicoll into a bridge game. Her iuggage and herself at last ready, Janet sank rather tiredly into a big chintz chair in the hotel writ- ing room to think things over and await the finish of the card bout. So the end of her splendid, prom- ising work in Temple's office had str | a mother come! And David Temple himself— how- sickening it was that a man with such capability, such honesty of purpose and such dreams for the bet- terment of human kind must be beaten back by a gang of rapacious political grafters! And Cora, his wife! All her work among the ten- ement poor; nursery for her mother’s clubs, her half-starved kiddies, her settlement house and its fine, brave littlo “‘employment bureau,” just started—all to be handicapped and interrupted, if not disrupted alto- gether! Janet glanced about her at the guests ‘of the expensive hotel where she had spent her month of idleness Not one of them looked as if they had ever known toil or hardship or poverty or sorrow. And vet, of course they had. Her eye fell upon and daughter garbed in expensive and elaborate mowmning. Some one had died whom they had loved, mused Janet, and she felt a certain sympathy for them. | But almost instantly the notion crossed her mind that such ostenti- ous badges of bereavement were all wrong. Why should persons want to advertise their grief in yards of cloating crape and stereotyped pat- terns and bonnets and cloaks and | strings of dull jet heads? If people were sad, why didn’t they prefer to be unnoticed in public company? And if there was anything in the world to mourn for so insistently as they were mourning, wasn't it the wrongs and evils and injustices of life and the sufferings of great masses of people rather than a personal, indi- vidual loss? Janet smiled grimly at her qauint reasoning. But her own heart was so full of sympathy for people of a different class from this rich mother and her rich daughter that she men- tally regiftered the odd view that if ever she “went into mourning” it would be for the death of those who swent down in war or starved in fam- | ine or were worn to the bone in harsh industries or—or— The bridge game was over and Mrs. Crafton came fluttering toward her, \with Roy Nicoll in tow. Janet was glad when the good-bys had been said and she was sitting beside Nicoll, cuddled under his fur robes and on her way back to her home and her worries and her work—and her Walt. If there was anything tender at that moment in her heart for Roy Nitoll it was a sense of gratitude. He was helping her. * * * WALTER WILLS HIT IN LEACH'S ROLE | the=clever comedian of the Lyceum musical stock com- pany, has increased his popularity with the patrons of the theater this week by his tireless efforts to pro- vide mirth during the productlon of “Girls Will Be Girls”” Versatllity is written all over Mr. Wills makeup, and evervthing he does is done well.

We all knew what she meant. And I, for one, agreed with her. TUnless You Thing Selfishness is Worse Unless perchance you place selfish- ness above it. But, come to think of it, irritabil- ity 1s just one form of seif-indul- gence, isn’t 1t? When you stop to analyze them, you find that selfish- ness 1s the father of almost every sin in the calendar. And that is why all the commandments can be encom- passed in two of which one is “Thou shalt love they neighbor as thyself.” “Just being pleasant has not a very herolc sound,” someone has said, but it gives as much happiness as many heroic qualities. And “just being unpleasant” hasn’'t unpar- What is BATTLE PICTURE ON FOX’S SCREEN At Fox's theater tonight and to- morrow the Triangle special release in five acts, “Somewhere in France,” with Miss Louise Glaum in the stel- lar role will be the headline attrac- tion. ‘‘Somewhere in France,” is the picturization of Richard Harding Davis novel of that name. Featured with Miss Glaum in this production is Mr. Howard Hickman the well known Triangle Star. On the same program is the Paramount feature, a novelty production by Jesse Lasky entitled ‘“The Soul Of Kura San,” a Japanese 1ove story featuring the fa- mous Japanese Star Sessue Haya- kawa. A Keystone Comedy and a Burton Holmes Travelogue complete the program. In addition to the regular Sunday program at Fox’s which next Sunday includes, Charlie Chaplin in “The Rink,” will be the all important first showing of New Britain’s own photo- drama, ‘The Trapper.” A great many of the scenes were taken here in New Britain and the interiors were completed in the New York ) Studios. The members of the cast are all New Britain people, those hav- L The Worst Habit a very dreadful sound, but it is the cause of as much unhappiness as the worst crime on the calendar. The woman who spoke so feelingly, spoke from very bitter experience. In her family is one housemate who has let the habit of irritability get more and more firm hold of him. When he enters the house he brings a cloud of irritability with him. One of his sons has left home on account of it, his wife has twice been on the verge of nervous prostration and the doctor says nothing in the world alls her but that atmosphere. A Street Angel and Home Devil. He is, like most of his kind, a street angel and home devil, but re- ports have leaked out through domes- | tics and otherwise. It is & queer thing about human na- ture, that most of us seem to feel the impulse to irritability. Hepecially when things annoy or one is over- tired. Which brings me to the justifica- tion which is often offered for irrita- bility—bad nerves or overtiredness. Before one accepts these as a jus- tification one feels oonstrained to ask: Are they & result of oareless- ness and self-indulgencs or of une- voldable overwork? The latter is the only circumstance ‘which even approaches a justification. And even then the really strong char- acter will be above petty irritability. b £°— - i S ing won in the Heralds popularity contest. The first show starts at 6 o'clock and the second at 8:15. “The Trap- per” will continue in the program the entire Christmas week. The rest of the program will be changed dur- ing the week as usual on Monday, ‘Wednesday and Friday but ‘The Trapper” will remain as a feature on each of the programs during the week. GRAND LITTLE SHOW AT GRAND THEATER While theaters in all parts of the country are suffering from the fact that this week precedes Christmas and stores are a strong coumter-at- traction, the Grand theater is doing a big business with this week’s show, Mollie Willlams and her own show. Miss Williams has an attraction this season that has plenty of pretty girls and catchy musie. The com- pany is one of the strongest, includ- ing some of the burlesque stage's highest paid principals. The famous Mollife Willilams numbered chorus is making a big hit and the “Dance L'Enchantment” is a bit of dramatic work that reflects considerable credit on Miss Williams and Frank Fan- ning, who assumes the role of the bandit.
