It will depend on the length of the pre- ceding reel shown in each house. In the Y. M. C. A.-Knights of Columbus campaign, the theater crowds gave liberally, but for the Red Cross they are expected to more than double their previous offerings. Things have happened ‘“over there” since then. The theater managers have shown the heartiest co-operation in every | movenient of this sort, and the | thanks of the people of New Britain | is due them for their magnificent loy- alty and public spiritedness. Ten Red Cross nurses will be as- signed to the Lyceum, Keeney’s and Fox's and four to the Scenic. Every theater patron is expected to tuck away some dollar bills and as much silver as he can afford, in his pockets for the shower on the plates as they are passed tonight Anyone who wants to throw in a Liberty Bond will find it more than welcome by the young nurses. Lib- erty Bonds are just as good as gold dollars in this campaign. A fifty or a hundred dollar Liberty Bond will look good in the midst of a shower of gold and silver and dollar bills, as it will lend the additional color needed.
