NDER NEW MANAGEMENT GEO, LEWITT INC. ALL THIS WEEK ALTER NAYLOR PLAYERS 3 Preseat ; “FINE FEATHERS” ON THE LYCEUM BOARDS . Eugene Walter’s dramatic triumph, “Fine Feathers,” will have its initial presentation at the Lyceum tonight (Welcome night). This production is an unusually expensive one but the new management desires to show that the policy of giving New Britain and vicinity the best there is in stock, as announced last week, is being lived up to. rector Naylor chose ‘“Fine Feath- ers” primarily 'because the principal parts are so well.syited to the mem- bers of his company. Smythe Wallace as a poor government chemist, Vir- .| ginia Perry as his wife, Ralph Mur- ] dian-author, Frank Finney. 't6 nurse her wounded brother. phy as his friend, Margie Dow as the neighbor and Philip Quin as the suc- cessful businéss men are particularly adapted to these characters and the remaining padts will also be capably interpreted. Ruth Miner, the New Britain girl who madé # many ad- mirers by her excellent work in ¥Di- plomacy,” will be cast as the hired girl and Victor Beecroft will be seen as a doctor. “Fine Featliers” played ten weeks in New York. Eugene Walter also wrote' “Paid in Full,” “The Easiest Way,” “The Wolf’ and “Just a Wo- man”; but none of these brought him financia] success in such a measure as did the drama which the Walter Nay- lor Players are to put on all this week. “THE LITTLE YANK” 1S FOX FEATURE Daorothy Gish is the star of “The Little Yank” which will be seen at Fox's theater tonight and tom: w.

Jack's letter to Mrs. Stewart, with its description of their meeting in the French haspital, dropped unheeded to the floor of my old friend’s little sit- ting room. My thoughts flew back to the night when Katherine and I, both wakeful and hungry, had grown con- fidential over a chafing dish supper and I had been startled by a glimpse of a kodak print of Jack in her scrap boak, In the conversation that followed I learned that she was the half-sister of Mark Earle, Jack’s deéarest friend, with whom he had been on many Arips, and that from her brother's 'mgq and photographs of ‘AJack -she had. made him quite a hero of her girlish imagination. . Indeed, I half- suspected from her manner that she had a distinct romantic interest in him. Y hed often heard. Jack speak of | “Mark Earles little sister.” Indeed, in the, old days when I looked upon Imy cousin Jack as my brother and my own especial property, I fad been secretly a little uneasy at the inter- est he displayed in his chum’s pretty little sister whom he had never seen. Enough of the old sisterly jealousy lingered at the time Katherine and I had our talk to make me hesitate about giving her a chance to g0 to the French front as a nurse. Dicky’s brother-in-law, the eminent surgeon, Dr. Edwin Braithwaite, was about to sail at the head of a hospital unit, and' it only needed a word from me to gratify at once Katherine's long- ing to serve France—her great-gramj!— father was an offieer in Napoleon's army—and the secret desire to be near the hero of her dreams, which I suspected. Glad or Sorry? ‘Was I glad or sorry, I w ondered, as I picked up’Jack's letter again, that I had crushed any feeling 1 might have had in the matter, and 'had spoken the word to Dr. Braithwaite that resulted in Katherine's joining the eminent surgeon’s staff of* nurses? It seemed a pity to have these two meet only to be torn apart so soon by. death. “You see,’” Jack's letter Stewart went on, “when good old Mark Farle and I roughed it to- gether I was mightily attracted by the photographs of his little sister which he carried around with him, and by :!

I remember won- dering occasionally, whether if my feeling for Margaret had not been so strang I might not become even more interested in Mark’s sister. My love for Margaret, however, always 'put any lesser emotion to one side, but the memory of the little girl always was like a fragrant flower in my life, and I have always kept her picture. “I cannot begin to tell you how de- lighted I was when we recognized each other. ' You can imagine over here that to one American the meet- ing with another American, especially |~ if: both have the same friends, is an event. Luckily, Miss Sonnot was just about to have an afternoon off when we met, and if she had an engage- ment—which she denied—she was kind enough to break it for me. I need not tell you that T spent the mest delightful afternoon I have had since coming over ‘here. And Yeot— 3 “You can be sure that I at once ex- erted all the influence J-had through my friend, Caillard, and his friend in the hospital to secure as much free time for Miss Sonnot as possible for the days I was to be on furlough. It is like getting home after being away so long to talk to this brave, sensible, beautiful young girl—for she deserves. all of the adjectives.” In the two letters which were the last ones numbered by Mrs. Stewart, Jack ‘spoke again and again of the Jittle nurse. Almost the last line of his last letter, written after he re- turned to the front, spoke of her. “Iittle Miss Sonnot and I corres- .pond,” he wrote, “and you can have no idea how much good her letters do me.” They are like fresh, sweet breezes glowing through the miasma of life in the trenches.” I folded the letters, put them back into their envelopes, and arranged them as Mrs. Stewart had given them to me. When she came back into the room she found me still holding them and staring into the fire. “Did you read them all?” she asked, “Yes,” I replied. * *“Don’t you think those last ones l sounded as if he were really mtin" interested iIn that little nurse?” she demanded. There was a peculiar intonation in her voice which told me that in 'her own queer little' way she was trying to punish me for my failure to come to see her oftener with inquiries about Jack. She evidently believed that my vanity would .be piqued at . the thought of Jack becoming interested - in any other woman after his:life- long devotion to me, B But I flatter myself that my volce® was absolutely non-committal -@s I answered her. 2 . “Yes, I do,” I agreed, “and what a/ iragedy it seems that he should: be snatched away from the prosfidet of ' happt: 7, . e 70 The words were sincere.
