Mr. Thienes spoke of Scouting as carried on in Detroit and also told of the natural .adventages and opportunities of New Britain. He also warned against miltarism especially at this time. The scouts are going on an over- night hike Saturday leaving the cor- ner of Lincoln street and Shuttle ' Meadow avenue at 2 p. m. The older scouts who are working will leave Main street at’ 10 p. m. The hike will be managed by the senior patrol leader. Some of the scouts are doing active duty at the exemption board heaa- quarters and best of all the officials are glad to have them. Under the direction of Assistant Scoutmaster Schaefer, Troobp 4 will soon present an entertainment which will be different than entertainments of the past. They plan to give an en- tertainment which will please rather than pass the time. Troop 2-—The plans have been completed for Troop 2's camp next week. The fellows will meet at the corner of Court and Main streets at 1:30 p. m. Saturday. ¢ From there they will go by auto direct to the Hawk's Nest camping site.

Marshall Cook, scoutmaster of Troop 16, which is being formed at the Boys' clup, states that he has some very fine material with which to work, and that the other troops will have to be up and doing or they will be greatly surprised at the out- come of the next scout meet. The meeting of the scoutmasters was held at the scout gardens ,at which ten members were present. Plans were discussed for the opening day of the State Fair in which the New Britain scoutls will take part. Each scoutmaster was requested for a list of the names for the farmers that they may the scout office. Then to the office, go through the list, and pick out the boys which he might want. for Mr. Elmer T.

PROGRAM OF STARS ON FOX'S SCREEN It does not require the services of an advance agent to boost the merits of the offerings on the present Fox pro- gram. The only difficulty lies in dis- ! tinguishing which picture is the more worthy of headline Monors, as there are two big five and six-reel features cn the bill, together with a new chap- ter of the wild-fire serial, “The Fatal Ring.” Probably the most popular { subject will be the return engagement of the immortal Theda Bara in her most daring six-reel production, “Un- der Two Flags,” adapted from the book of the same name by the well- known novelist, Ouida. Miss Bara's interpretation of Cigarette, the daugh- ter of the regiment in Algiers,—wha is anything but a vampire—is one that will linger long in the hearts and minds of her hosts of admirers. It is at the insistent request of the Fox Patrons that the management has brought this picture back, and in order tc make the occasion a bigger one, there will. be presented in the same show, the latest flve-part World pro- duction, a strikingly unusual drama be placed on file In | if a farmer | sheuld want any help he could come ' It was voted to give a supper | former , i twist, called “The Brand of Satan Montague Love, the star, plays the part of a young Parisian who is af- fected with a strange malady which gives him a dual personality, and un- der certain circumstances he uncon- sciously steps out of himself and as- sumes the attributes of a totally differ- ent person, Lazard, known in crimi- nal circles as ‘“The Strangler.”” In his own character he becomes prosecuting attorney, and bends all his efforts toward tracing Lazard, -who is his other ' self. Intensely exciting and gripping is every foot of “The Brand of Satan,” and it is undoubtedly one of the most original conceptions ever put on the screen. The sixth chapter of the “Fatal i B e A AL seens Al FOX'S TODAY AND TOMORROW Ring” promises to surpass all pre- vious installments for startling situa- tions, and from previous experience, Wwe can rest assured that this is one serial in which all such promises are kept. The manner in which Pearl es- ‘capes from the caldron of boiling ofl over which she was left suspended last week is certainly worth seeing. And she learns part of the secret of the violet diamond! The latest edition aof the Pathe News will also be shown. On account of the exceptional length of the show, the Fatal Ring can only be shown once. It will start at 2:15 With a kind of Dr. Jeckyl-Mr. Hyde | this afternocan and at 7 tonight. NATTY FALL SCHOOL FROCKS OF SERGE “FLAPPER” CORRECTNESS.

It is a comedy of youth, love and business, showing the troubles a young college graduate falls into when he opposes his father's wishes. Devereaux as hero refuses to glve up the girl he loves to marry a title. Consequently he is thrown on his own resources to make the best of things. How the girl ailds him to get the best of his father is shown in the clever episodes that go to make up the story in the supporting company are Walter Walker, Mrs. Blanche Davenport, Georges Rennavent and many others. This is not a ‘class” play. It will interest society people as much as it will the working classes. It is a comedy with clever satire on the man who, after coining good American dollars, begins aping the manners of the British nobility and aiming to marry his son off to a girl of title. It abounds in humor and brings out the fact that what's American is good enough for any one. Added feature, the new Sennett-Keystone comedy, “The Betrayal of Maggie,” boasts of an all-star aggregation of funmakers. Charles Murray Chester Conklin and Louise Fazenda are the most prom- inent in the cast. “THE GIRL AT HOME” | ON KEENEY SCREEN | Lasky’s clever picturization of mighty clever novel, “Tle Girl at Home,” made a pronounced hit at Keeney's | with the audiences yester- day and tonight, and tomorrow, when it is repeated, it is expected to again find favor. The piece is one of ex- ceptional interest. It has a novel flavor although it contains the usual elements of the cinema. For tonight | Red Feather features present Jack Mulhall in a five reel comedy drama. For Friday and Saturday the chief offering of the 12th episode of the ‘‘Neglected Wife” starring Ruth Rolland and Ralph Bottomley. The vaudevidle bill this week is one of unusual merit and is winning a | favor each night with the audiences. The three acts this week are the best that have graced the local stage in me time.

When I realized that Lillian had telephoned to Dicky for aid in keep- ing possible tragedy, certain incon- venience, in the shape of Mrs. Al away from the dinner she was gi in Robert Savarin’s honor, a little thrill of gladness ran through me. It does not matter how angry, justly or not, I may be at my hus- band, nor how sorely he may have disappointed me, if any emergency or danger comes. I long for his pres- ence. It isn’'t so much a longing for protection—I have always been rather self-reliant—but a feeling that goes to the very roots of life itself, that in times of danger or sorrow we should be together sharing whatever might come. T wonder if this |is merely a' phase of my own temper- ament, or if other wives share this feeling ? 1 knew from Lilllan's tone that Dicky would be strictly “on the job,” one of her favorite expressions, and my personal fear of Mrs Allis changed to uneasiness for Dicky, al- though T knew that she had no ani- mosity against him, that all her vials of wrath were reserved for my head. “Is Dicky Coming?” As soon as I could do so, after Lillian came back into the living room and Robert Savarin and Alfred Durkee joined us, I drew ‘her aside where the others could not hear us. *Is Dicky coming tonight?” 1 asked. She looked at me keenly. t course he is,” she answered, “although he certainly was cross enough at both you and me this morning. The well-known bear with the sore head had nothing on the Dicky-bird. He sulked all the way into town. But he evidently repeated this afternoon, for he sent me all these roses. Aren’t they wonderful?"” T looked around at the splashes of royal color the crimson roses made, sérve on lettuce leaves with mayonnaise spread over top. some Ginger Sherbet. Boil together for eight minutes one pound sugar -and one pint water and set aside to cool. Add strained juice six lemons and two oranges and freeze. Cut fine four ounces preserved ginger add it with two tablespoonfuls of the ginger syrup to frozen mixture. Beat well together repack and set aside for three hours. tof against the white background of the room, and assented heartily. 3 “Indeed they are,” I answered sin- cerely. *I'm so glad he sent them.™ “I Choose to Tell You.” I spoke nothing but the truth, and with the words there came to me a remembrance of. another time when I had stood in this same living room and listened to Lillian's voice telling of the roses Dicky had sent her. Then there ha® been hot rancor, bitter r £ sentment, jealousy, in my heart to- ward her. Now with my realizatton of the real meaning of my husband’s friendship for her, of the wonderful thing she had done for him, I had room for nothing in my soul but glad- n that he should have atoned for / his rudeness to her—for I guesseg. that he had been rude—by this gift roses. Lillian patted my hand. “What a dear you are!" irrelevantly, and then in an altered tone. *“Wouldn’t you like to know how I'm going to circumvent our fiendish little feminine friend?— there's alliteration for you.” / Her tone was lightness itself, butd there was a feverish spot in each cheek, and her lips had the thin line around them that always mean ten- sion with Lillian. I saw that she was really concerned despite her air of frivolity. “I would like to know whatever you choose to tell me,” I answered quiet}: ‘And I choose to tell you thing,” she answered quickly. wasn't going to have my dinner spoiled by any little dope fiend in this world or any other, so I called up Dicky, told him to round up two or three good private detectives, really good ones, who will not only be equal to any emergency, but who can De relied on to keep their mouths shut. Dicky happens to know some crackerjacks, and he is going to sta- tion them around the house where they'll do the most good. Nobody will ever be the wiser, and if the Al- lis person tries to pull off any funny stunts—well, I feel sorry for her, that's all.” Her voice held a quiet menace that made me shiver. I am very fond of Lillian Underwood, she is the best / friend I have, but sometime I glimpseg a bit of recklessness in her of which I do not quite approve. I may misjudge her, but I am afraid that in the cause of some one she loved she might not always be quite scrupulously ethical in the methods she emploved to ald them. she sald
