ANDREWS G0, T0 HAVE ‘GURZYIUS Famous “What Is It?” to Enter- tain at Furniture Store The John A. Andrews Furnitura company has bookea a novelty stunt to appear 'at the store all next week. The famous “what is it?"" Curzyius by name will appear in the window from time to time and mystify the public. It will not bat an eyelash, and to aaybody who makes the figure smile goes $500 for ‘their ability as mirth provokers. \ Guessing Contest. A guersing coupon will be passed out to the public, and if, they guess whether it is man, woman, chil§ or machine and the age of the same, they get $10 in gold. If more than one is correct, they all will get the “ten spot.”” The heuars for appear- ance are: Monday, Tuesday, Thurs- day and Friday from 2 to 3 p. m. and 5 to 6 p. m. On Wedneesday, Cur- zyius will appear from 10 to 11 a. m. Saturday, the feature day, it will ap- pear from 4 to 5 p.-m. and from 8 to 9 p. m. at which time Curzyius will be exposed to the public and prizees awarded, if anybody is fortunate enough to guess the questionnaire. Mystery Featured. Curzyius has four uniforms, viz, mechanical doll, full dress suit, Tux- edo and an English walking suit. The men are allowed to shake hands with the mystery and the girls are allow- ed to Kiss “Curzy” if_they want to. This feature has provln a big draw- ing card and one Saturday night re- cently in ‘Bridgeport, the police re- serves had to be called out S0 big was the crowd. H. F. Reddy, the man- ager of the affair, invites doctors to try and make the figure blink. Cur- zyius is somewhat of a humorist it- self, making the crowd go into fits of laughter with its stunts which serve to baffle all who have their eyes on the prize compensation.

GIRL USED AUTO TO DRESS IN AT SHORE Illinois Visitor to Atlantic City Pro- tests Against Vision He Saw | When Curtaing Blew Open. Atlantic City, N. J., July 22.—A protest against girls using automobiles as bathing houses at street ends, in which to change from surf attire to street garb, was ‘made yesterday by E. A. MacLaughlin, a visitor from Illinois, who sent a letter to Mayor Edward L. Bader and the department of public safety. It read in part: “One thing I will say is wrong. That, of course, your men cannot be blamed for, as they cannot see every- thing, but on going down Massa- chusetts avenue from the Boardwalk (and we had two little children with us) there was a girl disrobed in an automobile. It is true the machine had curtains on, but the wind was high. I learned afterwards she was changing her bathing suit for street dress, a very bad practice where chil- dren are all around, and surely should be put a stop to. 3 . “I just thought I would drop this little note, as it would be too bad to spoil such a wonderful resort, and to my mind, considering the crowd I saw there yesterday, you and your entire force are to be congratulated. I never saw better order with the exception mentioned.” The visitor also said he objected toi the . custora, of parkirg rolling chairs NEW BRITAIN DAILY HERALD. FRIDAY, JULY CHILDREN DEMAND NON-FICTION BOOKS Outdoor Articles—Wireless Books —Popular in Library A larger proportion of non-fiction ‘and reference books are in demand among children patrons of the local library than there are among the adults according to records at that institution.

Practical Books Popular. Boy Scout reference and instruc- tion books are popular among ‘the younger people as are such practical books as those dealing with electri- cal experiments for boys and girls, wireless subjects, outdoor articles, etc. King Arthur and James Whit- comb Riley are favorites among the children Amons the most popular books’in the juvenile department iare boekszf plays. “Classics in Drama,” or young folks, with such stories as some of Aesop’s fables, Grim’'s and Anderson’s fairy tales, folk tales of foreign countries, etc., written in such a way that they make entertain- ing, instructive and yet simple plays for young tolks, are much.in demand. Interested in Foreign Lands. According to librarians, the num- ber of children who ask for books on European subjects is far greater than might be imagined. Many school children, sons and daughters of for- eign born parents are very much in- terested in books telling of the life, conditions. laws and customs of their parents’ native lands. S Books, such as “Our Little Italian Cousins,” and other travel books for children are read with interest and demanded regularly. Stories by Zane Grey are favorites ‘among the girls as well as the boys. Most youngsters show a keen interest in life among the Mormons as portrayed by this popular writer. Mark Twain Still Popular. Among the fiction books, Arabian Nights, runs a close heat with the al- ways new Tom Sawyer and Huckle- berry Finn.
