Another bLig picture on the bill is “Modern Daughters,” with Edna Murphy, Er- nest Hilliard and Bryant Washburn. This is a startling story of modern life as it is lived by many in the so- cial set. It abounds with jaza par- ties, sensational bathing episodes and teaches the moral that all do not really love who are lovers. The news reel and selected comedies round out the program. The hero of “Sinews played by Gaston Glass, is a jazzy college youth who decides that he knows how to run a steel mill—and gets away with it. He also marries the president—said president being a girl to whom the steel mill was bequeathed by her father. AT THE STRAND Everybody will-be headed towards the Strand tonight and all this week | to share the wonder entertainment of the New Britain Scandals staged by Victor Hyde with a cast of fifty| local young men and young ladies.

With its gorgeous costumes, scenery and presentation it has all the appear- ance of & Bre~dway production.

MAPLE HILL INSURANCE REDUCED BY EXCHANGE Cut From $1.50 to 80 Cents On Dwellings and 82 Cents On Contents Maple Hill property owners have | scored a point in their drive against alleged excessive fire {insurance rates and have effected a reduction from a flat charge of $1.50 per thousand to 80 cents on dwellings and 82 cents on contents. The lower rate is made possible by reason of the arfangement now in effect by which water is furnished by the city of New Britain, aiding in fife fighting. In common with other suburbs and outlying districts, Maple Hill rates were increased scme time ago by the New England | Fire Exchange, from $1 to $1.50 per thousand. Protest was made on the ground that instead of fincreasing| the charge, the exchange should | have made a lower figure in recogni- tion of the bettered fire fighting fa- clities. The insurance exchange has fixed the new rate on & temporary basia, pending further investigation, but it has been indicated that the charge is likely to remain at its present figure. —— WHAT WAVE LENGTH? i Springtield, Ill.—Hog calling con- tests at the Illinols state falr are henceforth to be judged 50 per cent on volume, 25 per cent on pers suasiveness and 23 per cent on mels ody.
