BILLIE BURKE HERE AT THE LYCEUM “Arms and the Girl,” Billle Burke's most recent motion picture feature production came to New Britain this afternoon for the first time, and & hig audience branded it a master- plece, worthy of the star whose name 1s linked with the title. Miss Burke, after being initiated into the silent art in, “The Mysterious Miss Terry,” ap- pears in an entirely different sort of role in this, her second story, and scores as great a success as she did in _her first picture. ‘When the tension snapped in Eu- rope of 1914, and the Teuton hordes swarmed over the plains of Ger- many into Belgium, there were three Americans in that little country. There may have been more, and no doubt there were, but only three are dealt with in this story.

I looked at my watch swiftly as Katie burst in upon me with the news that Mr. Brennan, our very dis- agreeable landlord, was in the kitch- en. I didn't need Katle’s comment that “he was raising vun stotm,” for I could hear! the smash of crockery in the kitchen. My watch indicated 11 o’clock, a whole hour before the legal time we ‘were expected to be away from Mr. rennan’s premises which we had sed a year ago, and where I had seen so much of joy and sorrow. Because Dicky had angered him, the irate old man had warned us that every bit of our belongings must be “out of his gate” on the “stroke of noon.” But it yet lacked an hour of the time. My anger rose at his jntrusion, and I hurried to the kitchen oblivious to my usual deadly fear of an intpxjcated man, for I knew the habits of our landlord, and reasoned that he must have nerved himself up to.his present state of mind by drinking. “I War-rned Yel” The sight that met my eyes was not calculated to lessen my indignation. Mr. Brennan, lurching unsteadily, had carried a basket of jelly glasses, for- tunately empty, to the open door, and carefully aiming at the nearest tree, was systematically smashing them, ‘with miraculously accurate aim, con- sidering the condition he was in. “Mr. Brennan!” I spoke sharply with the tone of command I would have used to a small boy caught in mischief. “Put those glasses down at once and leave’this house until 12 o'clock, the time oyr lease expires.” He whirled and faced me. There was an ugly gleam in his eyes and for an instant I feared that he meant to throw at me the glass poised in his hand, Then he bowed low a mocking bow. / “An’ it's the lady hergelf,” he said. Then his tone grew truculent. “I war-rned ye!” he said. “Ye can't say I didn’t war-r-n ye. I told ye if yo weren’t out of here by noon, ye'd take lurching, American traveling alone were among the people unable to leave Belgium. Then the Germans arrive and the hma for explanations comes. Un- able to explain the Russian name on the passport, the Arerican girl poses as Ferrter's flancee and the Germans, calling her bIuff demanded that they be married. They are obliged to acquiesce, and with Miss Sherwood momentarily expecting the arrival of her real flance, things look interesting. The terrible actions of the rmans in suffering Belgium play as impor- tant in the action that follows, and before the story ends, the married couple really fall in love with each other. Joseph Kaufman, who directed this picture, gets some wonderful war ef- fects. The timeliness of the theme make the film one that holds the in- terest throughout. The fact that this war story deals with happeningsof this century, not of wars of our forefa- thers or of our ancestors of years ago. There is a personal interest here that grips and holds. It is a trumph that will retain its popularity for years. On the progtam with this picture at the Lyceum theater today, Friday and Saturday will be the Lyceum Weekly, a Keystone comedy and an instructive picture, “A Trip Through China,” with others. DOUBLE BIEL AT KEENEY'S THEATER Famous for his excellent portray- als of Latin characters, George Be- ban, the splendid character actor, will be seen at Keeney's theater Thurs- day, Friday and Saturday in the Morosco-Paramount production of Donald Crisp's story, “The Cook of Canyon Camp.” Mr. Beban is fa- mous for his delineation of Italian characters and in addition to his un- dylng fame in “The Sign of the Rose” and “Pasquali” has more re- cently scored pronounced success in “Marcellini Millions” and “A Road- side Impresario.” He Is equally as versatile in interpreting French char- acteristics as wasl testified by his won- derful performance as the old French musician in “The Bond Between.” In “The Cook of Canyon Camp,” Mr. Beban is seen as a French-Can- adian cook in a lumber camp near Quebec. By his wonderful sympathy and cleverness he reunites a family and after so doing receives reward enough to marry the girl of his heart and have the dream of his life, the greatest “flapjack” palace in the world. Francis Ford will be seen today in a five-part Western drama “John Ermine of the Yellowstone.” Mr. Tord offers one of his typical west- ern characters, but in this one he in- jects more of a sympathetic touch. His character is pleasing and con- sistently realistic throughout. Charlie Chaplin in his latest com- edy “The Adventurer” and three good high-class acts of vaudeville, also the Keeney Weekly and other features balance the program. LUNCH the consequences. An’ it’s five min- utes af-fter.” I opened my watch and looked at it again, held it up to my ear in sud- den fear that it might have -stopped. But it was still ticking, and reas- sured, I faced him steadily. A Whirlwind Enters. “Mr. Brennan,” I said ‘quietly, “it is only 11 o’clock, You're either mis- taken or you have deliberately come here an hour ahead of time——"' “Call me a liar, will ye!” One of my favorite diversions when ‘I have a little time to spare for de- ! sultory reading is to go over the Po- sitions and Help Wanted pages of some big metropolitan daily. I believe I have called your atten- tion before to the human interest in .| all the classified ads (especially “Lost and Found” and ‘“Personals”), but this time I want to direct it entirely to that big cross section of the daily life of the average men and women which these advertisements for work or for workers contain, Anyone whoy; is interested in peo- ple in the large human sense and who has imagination enough to slimpse a tenth of what such advertisements suggest must find such pages-interest- ing. I never had any idea how many things people did to get a living until 1 became interested in, these pages. Would You Know What These Terms Mean? “An ender,” ‘*a first-class heel shaver,” “men with yardstick experi- ence,” “a boss comber for colors and mixes,” “hangers up for automobiles,” —these terms stand for a few of the many intricacies which today's paper suggests to me. An interesting vista opened by at least two ads on one page is the call for laborers to work where a strike is on. The most excellent inducements are offered and solemn but sinister assurance given that there hasn’t been any trouble. The Call of the Wild. If T were a man it seems to me that “WHY IT SUCCEEDS Because 1U's for One Thing Only,.and New Britain People Appreciate It. Nothing can be good for everything: Doing one thing well brings suc- cess.

I know ye! high-falutin’ dames that has evéry- thin’ their own way. Ye talk as yve plaze to iverybody. Well, ye won't do it to me the’ sicond toime.” He had put the glass down, but as he advanced toward me his fist was raised threateningly. I had a sudden sickening conviction that” the = man meant to strike me, and a shrill scream from Katie cowering behind me told me that she, too, read the man’s sinister purpose. And then a whirlwind entered the kitchen from the outside door, a whirlwind all arms and shoulders it seemed to me as I leaned breathless and faint against the door leading to the dining room and saw Willlam Trumbull, his eyes gleaming with the lust of battle, leap upon the tall figure of my erstwhile landlord. The conflict which followed will never be sung by sagas, but it was a notable one for all that. The men were of about the : same age. In stature and bulk Mr. Brennan. out- matched Willlam Trumbull, yet his endurance had been lessened by his intemperate habits, while every inch of Willlam’s squat frame was tough- ened bone and sinew, Both men were evidently in ths frame of mind best described as “spoiling for a fight,”” but while Mr. Brennan's face bore simply the grim determination to win the battle, there was a look in Willlam Trumbull's usually childlike blue eyes that made me trel’lble with an unnamed terror. For if ever a man’s eyes spelled-| murder, his did. And when finally after the men had raged up and down the kitchen they carried their conflict through the open door into the yard, and I saw them fall to the ground together, Mr. Brennan under- neath, I ran toward them, blindly hoping that I would be able to get William to release the hold which T saw he had upon the other man’s throat. But fortunately Jim drove into the vard at that moment, Jim, who was a giant in physique. In no time he had the combatants parted, and while Mr. Brepnan leaned gasping against a tree, I turned my attentéion to Wil- liam. “Why did vom'do that, Willlam?” I asked sternly. ‘“You ‘might have killed Mr. Brennan.” : ‘“He goin’ to hit you, Mis' Gramie,” ‘William returned doggedly. *“You bin jest like my old mudder to me, so kind and good. an’ T don't let no- buddy live what hurts you.” 1 should sométimes fall under spell of the constant call pages for Lumbermen. Perhaps if I were a man I should know more about the matter and the fascination would be dispeled, but, in my present blissful ignorance, I can read the call of the little Red gods into those few lines. A familiar type of adverfisement which; always interests and somehow exasperates me is “Young man to learn the shoe business, excellent op- portunity for young man who is will- ing to work.”” You can just picture: the in these i the place from that—one of those! positions where the boss is so afraid | that the men will watch_the clock | that he watches them all the time. ‘Where praises are_ supposed to take the place of raises, Where workers are | expected to be able to live indefinitely on a few dollars a week and ‘‘an ex-| cellent opportunity.” Perhaps I do this particular concern injustice. I wonder. The Baby Who Liked Housekeeping. Of course, there are the amusing advertisements in which the adver- tisers, either through their, own inad-! vertence or that of the proof-reader,’ fail to say exactly what they mean. For instance, I found these two today: “Wanted a position as janitor by party who is an expert in burning coal. (Do you think that sounds exactly reassur- ing with coal prices hobnobbing with stars at present?) and ‘“Woman to take full charge of baby who likes housekeeping in small apartment.” T am ashamed of the feeble way in which I have indicated the big feel- ing of getting a cross section of the world’s life which these pages give me. T only hope I've sald enough to make you supply my inadequacy by trying it out for yourself. —e There is more Catarrh in this section of the country than all other diseases put together, and for years it was sup- posed to be incurable. Doctors pre- scribed local remedies, and by constant- ly failing to cure with local treatment, pronounced it incurable.

Heading the bill will be a big Vita- graph Blue Ribbon feature, *“Sun- light's Last Raid,” in which that charming young beauty, Mary Ander- son, is starred. It is a vivid repre- sentation of the great Wild West, thrilling and exciting beyond com- pare. Outlaws, border raids, pitched battles and hair-breadth escapes are all there in the proper proportion and presented in such a realistic manner as to make ane fairly gasp for breath, while he wonders if the next stunt can be as daring as the last. The eighteenth chapter of ‘“The Fatal Ring” will also be a big attrac- tion. As there are only twenty chap- ters in the story, the action is intensi- fied {n the remainder, and Pearl White is setting everything for a big, red-hot wind-up. Another interesting feature of the program will be the first of a new series of “Fables in Slang,” written by that most accomplished slangster, Gearge Ade, whose works have long since won great popularity in the Cos- mopolitan magazine and many other popular periodicals. Mutt and Jeff and the Pathe News will also be shown. Menu for Tomorrow Breakfast. Bananas Fried Ham Rolls Coffee Lunch. Baked Beans Fruit and Nut Rolls G Cocoa Dinner.

Farnum has been especially pleasing in this picture and has drawn capacity houses. The story of *‘The Scarlet Pimpernel” is laid in southern England in 1792, the time when all France was red with the reign of'tér- ror. A band of English noblemen, known as the followers of the Scarlet Pimpernel, were constantly re-cnins condemned French aristocrats. daring has been the work of Lhufind that the republican leaders agents to England w\leun'who tha Scarlet Pimpernel is, and to put him, out of the way. This man, through unique disguises, his qulcg wit and his courage, had baffled the republicans time and again. Chevaulin, who is at the head of the republican agents, compels Sir Percy’'s wife Margaret to aid him by telling her that her broth- | dors for Chlldren, er is ins«danger. the Scarlet Pimpernel is on his way to France and reports this important fact to Chevaulin. Byt immediately after she is astonished to learn that the Scarlet Pimpernel is fione other than her own husband, and, flying to his aid, she helps him to avoid a trap that the Tepublicans have set for him. Sir Percy had grown indifferent to his wife because of her activities and in- clinations toward the revolutionary party of France, but when he learns the true state of affairs between her and Chevaulin, one of the most startling climaxes of the picture tran- spires.
