Ripley Art Co., BRANCH sTUDIO 103 West Main St., New Britain, Oonn, “THE DUNMY’ OPENS WEEK AT LYCEUM Walter Naylor Players Generous With Sobs and Smiles Refore one of the most apprecia- tive audicnces of the season ..“The was presented. last evening at yeeum by the = Walter Naylor From the standpoint of a lover of comedy dramas this offering other. previous perform- play was one of the best arriet Ford and Harvey h written by ¥ { O'Hirgins, ance at the Hudson theater in New | York, where it‘ran for a ‘number of month thcatergoers have " alwgys ; welcomed its advent to their town or | city. Likc wine, it has increased in flavor with cla age. | One woula naturally presume from the title, “The Dummy” dealt only with the humorous side of life. How- ever, this is not so. It has the tense ituations, heart throbs and the stir- ring climax of the drama. The plot 1 ys how ' a millionaire and his | are separated through petty i family quarrels and are finally drawn together by the restoration of a little girl, their daughter, who has been stolen from them. Humor is interpo- lated into the play by a youth of the Bowery, whose one ambition in life is to be a “detectative.” He aids material- 1y but unknowingly in bringing about the happy rcunion of father, wife and daushter. Dorothea Antel as Beryl Meredith, is admirably cast, her presentation of a_little girl taken away from hoMe and parents, giving her the opportun- ity to win her way into the hearts of the audience, which she does. As Barney Cook, Ralph ¢Murphy cleverly portrays a true picturization of the gamin of the streets of New York, wha in his voung but eventful life attains the desire ‘uppermost iny his thoughts, that of being a ‘‘detec- tative” under Chief Balling. After playing minor parts for several weeks Philip Quin again has the lead in the role of Chief Balling, head of a famcus detective bureau. His adaptability to handle hard parts or easy continues to win him favor with New Britain theatergoers. Harry Hamilton and Marjorie Dow are cast as Mr. and Mrs. Meredith and show realistically the sorrow and anguish that must be borne when be- loved ones are taken away, even though tempararily. Others who help make this week’s program & . success and a well balanced play are Miss Virginia Perry, Smythe Wallace, . Victor Beecroft, Irene Antel, John Lawler and Tello ‘Webb, Mr. Lawler and Mr. Webb were engaged especlaly by Mr. Naylor for the presentation of “The Dummy.” They are seen in the roles of detectives and portray admirably the characters depicted.

She is seen at the right in the pilctures. Mrs, Haughton hopes to form cluhss all over the country with a central; committee, on which prominent men | will gerve, in New York. These clubs| will play minimum dues and get their | ammunition at cost to make it{ possible for women of all classes to| become: club members. Eventually it is hoped to have ranges built in the public parks of large citles. Representatives of girls’ schools or colleges have called on Mrs. Haugh- ton to see about making arrangements to have classes in shooting installed.

Rifle shooting is an ex- cellent exercise, Mrs, Haughton says, aside from its value as a means of defense. It cultivates accuracy, de- cision and self control ,and is a good physical exercise. Familiarity with firearms, she believes, will lessen the number of accidents. Two other American women wha are active in war work are Mrs. Leonard Wood, wife of Major Gen- eral Wood (left, upper in pictures) and Mrs. Hugh L, Scott, wife of the army chief of staff (left, lower). Mr"l. Scott is commandant of the women's section of the Navy league and is working for the establishment of camps for women. Mrs. Wood devotes her main energies to Red Cross work and has superin- tended the making of many bandages. T R S Ry e e \ Fads and Fashions N A striking girdle is made of squares of jet held together by chains. Some checked suits are made smart by reason of their white braid ind- ings. Have your suit lined with check and edge the collar and cuffs with the same check. Many of the evening gowns are supported on the shoulders by a mere chain of beads. Rose and gray are a spring com- bination that is made into frocks on filmy materials. The white silk middy, with edgings of color, are a pretty sarment for the little girl. ot | with A muslin frock that is made polka dotted muslin is veiled navy blue mousseline, Delightful’ necklaces and pendants are formed of beaded bands, ending tn tassels or ornaments. It is a new idea to fasten a frock down the middle of the front with rib- bons tied into bow knots. Silver lace for the bodice and rich satin for the skirt will fashion an evening gown of rare beauty. The collars and facings of the new top coats are of a different matertat | from the body of the coat.

Pos- sessing an original line of mirth pro- voking comedy, this youngster during the time that he keeps in front of the glare of the footlights never fails to produce the goods, and it is a pleas- ure to watch him work. Being funny and not resorting to some of the old time stereotyped brand of humor, Al- len keeps his audiences in convulsions by his quaint antics. Of course Babe La Tour occuples the attention of the greater part of the audience, probably due to her rep. but her work this season does not vary in any respect with that which she dispensed vears and years ago. Babe tries hard to please and her ef-. forts are appreciated. June.La Valley and Gladys Park- er work their way through several song numbers, and it will never be said that Mary Garden or Alma Gluck were in danger of being outnumbered by this pair. The usual lot of pretty girls and adequate scenery help to make the show one of the season’s hifs at the theater.

Palmer of the bureau of navigation of the United States navy sent a telegram to Com- mander Grady, in charge of recruit- | ing for the eastern division, that 38,500 more men were needed ‘to put the navy on a war footing. To ac-, complish this increase Néw York city , was called upon to supply' 2,000 men ' by April 20, which means 100 eniist- ments a day, or about four times as many enlistments as have been ‘ob- tained even in the best days since the recruiting campaign began. According to Commander ~Grady, ' Admiral Palmer’s order indicated that the president had decided to elevate . the authorized strength, but merely announced that 38,500 men were & needed at once to fill - the 'navy'.@. ‘‘emergency complement.” 0 The women campaigners for navab' recruits continued their work in New York with more energy than ever, touring the city/in automobiles an making a number -of speeches.” Mrs. Margaret M.

Some time ago I read an article which claimed that all dreams are the expression of either desire or fear,— usually subconsecious. When sleep has slipped the leash from the sub- conscious mind, the desire or fear ex- presses itself in dreams, For instance, that familiar dream through which evervone passes about once in so often, that one is in a nrublic place with an insufficient quota of clothes, is an expression of our sub- conscious fear that we will sometime disgrace ourself that way. Some Place I Couldn't Afford to Go. My own particular dream of this nature is that I am in some distant place to which I really have neither the time nar money to go. . “How did 1 ever come hcre?” I wonder. And then I think with true waking prac- ticality. “Well, T had no right to ¢pend all that money but now I'm here I'll do such and such a thing.” However, I think it is aquite too Jarge a claim to say that all dreams have these two motives, My Passion for Fixing Up Rooms Displays Itsclf in Dreams. Another interesting claim of the dream psychologists is that we would never do anything in a dream that we would be incapable of doing in our waking hours. I wonder. Scems to me I have. But it is amusing to see | how close we run to form in our dreams. Last night, for instance, I dreamed that T was trying to rent a room in New York. They showed me a great big dreary attic room. *“That wouldn’t do for me,” I said, “but see here, what a splendid place it would be for four girls to live together.” And then I launched into a full de- scription of how he could just clean up the paint, put a yellow paper on the walls, inexpensive muslin curtains at the windows, set up four little iron beds, and get twice what he was ask- ing for the room. All the Time We Know It Is a Dream Another interesting ‘thing. about dreams is the way we are sometimes conscious in the midst of them that we are dreaming. I suppose we are not perfectly asleep then. “I dreamed a dream and I dreamed that the dream was true,” says the poet. I do that, but I'm more apt to dream that it isn't true. One night But perhaps that's all ‘'you want to hear about my drcams. Doubtless you have interesting things you might tell about your own. Send them along uncanny things on Dreams. and some day we'll have a dream symposium. And be sure to tell usig You have any reason to believe in dream signs.
