Scotch Perhaps the most delightfully quaint d attractive motion picture that the >reed has offered this season is the ne today entitled Auld Lang Syne. 'his monster production is in two reels nd is redolent of the heather fields, lled to overflowing wifh characters oo natural to be questioned or doubt- #d, and in all a perfect film drama of the highest order and type. The action is based upon Bobbie Burns® great and woMd-wide poem of the spme name, thit has touched the %earts of all nations. % The management emphasizes the an- Jouncement of this great attraction with the assurance that It is one of jurpassing grandeur and beauty, and of the same high charactér and or- er of the other famous two and three eel pictures presented at the Breed is season. Appearing in this picture Miss Florence Turner, the prime vorite of the great Vitagraph cast, jupported by the all star company, in ‘hich Jean, the Vitagraph Scotch col- e, plays no small part. Two Scotch farmer lads, Tammas and Geordie, fast friends and mem- ers of the same clan, are in love with Yenny, a little Scotch lass. Geordie per- sists in proposing to her, but Tamm: On her wedding day Geor- die is not invited to attend, but sees festivities from his window, while he is comforted by his dog, Jean. In sad- ness he filis his cup with a large draught of consolation and savs “Tll take a cup o' kindness yet, for the davs ef Auld Leng Syne.” " Five years later Tammas’ and Jen ny's lttle child wanders off throuz the heather, across the hills, and is Jest. All efforts of the child’s parents to discover him are fruitless, and they return home disconsolate. At daybreak Geordie starts out with his flock of sheep, and his good dog, Jean, comes running to him with the child’s tam o’ shanter, persisting in her master going with her to the place where the child Is discovered. return of the child Tammas relents in his _enmity to Geordie; the two men ekake hands, once more become friends and “drink a cup o' kindness,” making up their difference with the words of Auld Lang Syne. Cencert and Ball to torium. ‘The employes of Mitchell Co. have completed arrange- ments for a grand benefit concert and ball in Olympic hall on Monday even- ing, Dec. 11, the proceeds to be de- voted to swelling the amount of the tuberculosis sanatorium fund pow be- irg raised in this city. Committees kave been appointed to take care of tke details and all the_emploves have caught the spirit of the project and are working with enthusiasm to make the affair a grand success. Interest in the movement to pro- vide a tuberculosis sanatorium for New London county is very keen in Nor- wich, and the employes in all the fac- tories and large business houses are organizing in aid of the project. The object is one that forcibly an- peals to evervone interested in public health and welfare and the plan devised by the emploves of the Por- teous & Mitchell Co. for assisting in this work is most commendable and should receive the largest measure of support from the public. the Sana- LYCEUM THEATER.
