Driving while under the influence of liquor also often carries with it a vacation in a whitewashed cell, The danger which reckless driving carries is graphically shown in a situation fn this gripping photoplay of American society life. where one of the characters, a part played by Jack Patrick, meets his death in a thrilling automoblle crash. “CITY THAT NEVER SLEEPS” To describe “The City That Never Sleeps,” James Cruze's latest Para- mount production, in a phrase is to say that it is “entertalnment de luxe that registers 100 per cent at the box office,”” The audlence last night at the Palace theatre, where this photo- play had its first local showing, ac- corded it a fitting reception. All the vitality and humanness of Leroy tt's story which electriffed the literary world when it first was published in McCall's Magazine un- der the title, “Mother O'Day,” has been preserved by the scenarists, Walter Woods and Anthony Colde- wey.

[he participating choruses were the Arpi Sextet of New Britain, ghe Orphie Drangar Singing society ' of Springfield, the Norden Singing so- ciety of Bridgeport, the Apollo Singing soclety of New Haven and the Swedish Glee club of Hartford. Miss Anna Wollman, soprano, of Springfield, and Miss Elsa M. Nort- strom, violinist, of Worcester, con- tributed individual numbers to the program and gave encores, The choruscs did not glve ancores be- cause of a dosire to remain within the stipulated time-limit of the con- | cert., The soloists w highly ap- preciated part of the program, In addition to singing in combina- tion, the various participating so- cieties also sang alone, thus giving hearers an opportunity to judge of | their comparative excellence, Which | was the superior it will remain for the audience to judge. It was the second annual concert of the combined choruses, forming the Connecticut division of the American Union of Swedish singers. As everyone knows, Swedish- Americans foster the art of music consistently and with pronounced success, . They are good listeners, but also good performers and good singers, There is a difference be- tween being merely a good listener and being a good performer or sin- ger at the same time. To be an appreclative listener is very much worth while; but the ability to par- ticipate in the production of sweet sounds enhances {he pleasure of terday afternoon and listening enormously. Next to supplying to himself the essen- tials of living. there is noth- ing that a Swedlsh citizen re- gards so Thighiy as cultivating musie, which accounts for the astonishing rescrvoir of talent | among citizens of Swedish birth or extraction. A robust, healthy Swed- ish man, favored by nature with a voice, has a penchant to use it in conjunction with his fellows and goes in for it with the facility of a duck taking to water. | What is equally as important, they | have energetic and efficient leaders. | Where Swedes foregather in any numbers there is certain to be lead- | ers who can utilize available talent | and create a first class singing society In a city like New Britain there are organizations of men in greater | numbers than the Swedes can get NEW BRITAIN DAILY HERALD, MONDAY, MARCH 9, 1925, Swedish Glge Club of Hartford Directed by Edward Thorsell seld” hant Negre" .. panish Dance” .

SOUTHINGTON NEWS The Pextos returned to f urday night and defeated the wood quintet, which is lea rmington Valley league, in a hotly contested gam the local town hall, the final s being 36-28. The locals led the cir- cuit for some weecks and then struck a losing s but Saturday night's vic- tory shows that they have come out of their slump and are counted upon to be in at the finish. They are one and a half games behind Elmwood, which team they have defeated twice out of thres times. The game Saturday was fast from the start, the locals getting t} and holding a 15-10 advantz half. 1.
