AT THE DAVIS Big Crowds See Damaged Goods Four capacity houses crowded the Davis theatre for the famous picture, Bamaged Goods, which is being shown there for the remainder of the week. The picture which Is a seven-reeler, has been secured at big expense by the management of the theatre and has a story that everyone should know. The plcture is taken from Eugene Briex's famous drama, Les Avlares, and acted by the original Broadway cast, includ- ing Richard Bennett. The play had a long run on the stage and the photo- play is considered by everyone to sur- pass the stage version in every re- spect. Damaged Goods fs not an im- mora] play, but a strong advocate for clean living by both men and women. Tt is a play that will bring home a les- son to evervone for it brings out the truth in such a forcible manner that no one can avold the issue.

The price of paper, which has ad- {vanced from 100 to 200 per cent. or more over prices prevailing a year ago, i threatens the life of a large number of publications tbroughout the sens the profit It is doubtful if any other large in- dustry in the United States has had to face so serious a situation, because when prices of raw materials have ad- nced the manufacturers of the fine hed preducts have advanced their | prices and thus thrown the burden on | the ultimate consumer. In the news | paper business this has not yet been | done. pers. from the larg- est dailies to the smallest weeklies, have been bearing the burden which to many publications will mean com- plete destruction and to many others the wiping out of all profit Had the newspapers of the country been as prompt to defend their own interests as they have the interests they, too, would before this have undertalken to save themselves by an advance in s e and in advertising rates. Under existing conditions they will be forced to do s sooner or later, and they cannot tpone it much longer without seri- ous financial embarrassment to many |of them. Hundreds of the smaller weeklies, including the religious pa pers, which have had but a very nar- row margin between loss and profit, will, we fear, suffer most seriously, and many of them disastrously, unless the public promptly recognizes the situa- tion and accepts an advance in sub- iption and in advertising rates and ave the situation. day laborer, the mechanic, the farmer and nearly all business inter- sts. manufacturing and mercantik under the activity of the times are showing larger earnings than for years But the ncwspapers, as a whole, are meeting a_more perplexing problem in the doubling, and in some cases the trebling, of price of paper, and in the absolute inability to contract in ad- vance for supplies, than they have ever to face before. The statements which have recently appeared in the daily papers on the subject do not at 11l exaggerate the seriouspess of the problem.

The tigs are already in place and it will be omly a matter of a few days before the railroad con- nection is complete. The connecting lirie runs along the excavated land surface through the tunnel beneath the New Haven road to a point near the Standard Oil _plane. where it meets the Central Vermont iron. Captain Hinsch, of the German steamship Neckar, Paul G. Hilken, vice president of the Eastern For- warding Co, and other representa- tives of that corporation were in New London Thursday in consulta- tion with F. Valentine Chappell, chair- man of the state harbor commission. It is understood that the lease of that portion of the pier upon which the warehouses are being rushed, to com- pletion was formally signed, although g;z definite information was obtaina- e. This, in any event, is merely pro forma matter, as the details had al- ready been agreed upon. Speculation is rife regarding the date of the arrival of the mysterious creft for which all these preparations are being made but strict secrecy Is being maintained and the only res course for the curious is to wait pa- tiently for developments. That they will not have long to walt is the prevalent opinion. TO START WORK ON MONTVILLE SCHOOL Contract For $100,000 Building Was Awarded on Thursday, The contract for the construction of the beautiful - Melcer Memorial school at the junction of the Norwich and Palmertown roads in Uncasville was Thursday awarded to H. R. Douglas, Tnc. The total cost will be in the vicinity of $100,000. The building is a gift to the town of Montville from Mrs. Ralph H. Melcer in memory of her mother, Mrs. Edward A. Palmer.
