Fierce fights, dare-devil stunts that fairly raise one’s hair to the bristling paint. and throughout that humar that Fairbanks cannot fail but develop, characterized the pro- duction. Laughs, smiles and chuckles indi- cated the way in which the New Bri- tain public received the plLture, and remarks heard after the show were enough to prove that “Reaching For the Moon” has taken strongly. Fair banks is contagious; once seen he is never missed, and at the showing of cach of his new pictures, all of his friends, made at previous shows, flock back to see him again, accompanied by their friends, who in turn become Fairbanks’ admirers. “Reaching For the Moon” presents a unique plot, carried out in a unique manner. In it we witness Alexis Caesar Napoleon Brown, employee at Bingham'’s Button factor, whose one hope is that some day he will be a member of a royal family. It makes no difference whose family it is, as long as there is some velvet to wear ar some golden spangles to display. His devotion to the New Thought, which teaches that concentration on a certain matter will bring its fulfil- ment brings him to believe that some day he really will move among the nobilit Alexis is an orphan whose mother voung, and who was a refugee from the small country of Vulgaria. Concentration on his roval ideas ends with his discharge from the button factory, and shortly afterward comes notice that hi mother was of naoble birth and that the kingdom of Vulgaria is his for the asking. Alexis goes to take charge of his country, leaving behind him Plsie Graham, his sweetheart believer in the New Thought, but ! whose concentration is upon a bunga- law.

Mrs. Norris has character in one of her books retires to a hospital whenover feels slighted at home and the center of the stage. proper place the hospital a she wants to But in is one of specialization. The violent prejudice against ing taken to a hospital that used to be so common is now mostly confined to the ignorant and the aged. ot course we don't go to hospitals minor illnesses but I sometimes wish there could be some sort of moderate ced hospital home, where could go for that purpose.

I shall never forget the exquisite sense of relief I felt when after try- ing very hard not to be a burden to one delicate and one very busy house mate, I had myself removed to a hos- pital. “Is there anything at all you would like?” the night nurse asked me at two o’clock, ‘““Could L" I said, hardly daring to ask for anything so wonderful, “have some orange juice?” “Certainly,” ly and in a few juice appeared, hoot illn and the utes the orange with cracked ice to a Stand Against This?
