Moving Fictures at the Auditorium Theatre. ANNOUNCEMENTS BREED THEATRE Hazel Dawn and Owen Moore in the Great Stage Triumph, Under Cover, Feature for Today. ‘When Roi Cooper Magrue's phe- nomenally clever drama, Under Cover, filled the Cort theatre in New York wmonth after month, the production attracted the attention of the Fa- mous Players Film company because of its unquestioned popular appeal. In all the mass of plays which are pro- duced every season on Broadway this thrilling drama was conspicuous as a tremendous success, mor did it re- quire very careful study on the part of the producers to discover the rea- son for its record-breaking popular- B;t was the swift action of the story, the never-ending suspense, the mys- tery, the fascinating battle between a man and a woman who are in love but are forced to battle with each other by powers which they cannot resist, thrills which come in quick succession and the humor which per- vades many scenes. Since all these elements are ideal for presentation on the screen, the Famous Players were quick to obtain the screen rights for Under Cover, which is to be the Paramount feature at the Breed thea- tre for today. Other pictures on the bill are the Pathe Weekly and a screamingly funny comedy entitled What’s in a Name. On Wednesday and Thursday the Breed will present Lionel Barrymore and Grace Valentine in the five-part Metro production, The Brand of Cow- ardice, The _ production of The Brand of Cowardlice was made with the strict- est accuracy as to scenic affects along the Moxican border and with the greatest pains as to details of life in the American army. These details were supplied by John W. Noble, di- rector of the play, who entered the regular army as a West Point man, fought in the Spanish-American war, was wounded several times in the Philippines, saw service in Cuba and was in China during the Boxer up- rising. 3 Thus, with an army play directed by a former commissioned officer in the regular army, with two such stars as Mr. Barrymore and Miss Valentine and with a strong suppbrting cast, The Brand of Cowardice bids fair to prove one of the sensations of the screen during the present season. ~ REPORT OF INTERNATIONAL INSTITUTE OF. AGRICULTURE. World Has More Than Enough to Live On Until Next Harvest. Rome, Dec. he International Institute of Agriculture has published a_report under the title “Has the World Enough to Live Upon Until the Next Harvest?” The report took into consideration five unfavorable factors, the failure of the northern hemisphere harvests of the year ending July 31, and particu- larly those of Canada and the United Btates; the unreleased crops of Rus- sta owing to the continued closing of the Dardanelles; the extra and up- u€ual consumption of food by the ar- mies; the increased difficulty of trans- porting crops; and the fact that nor- mally the world's food consumption in- creases year by year, partly due to tion increas and whereby a crop which does no more than attain to an antecedent average is actually an_insufficient one. The general conclusion of the report, while not favbrable, indicates that if every nation, irrespective of those at war, exercises close economy there may be a'narrow margin of surplus food at the beginning of the next har- vest year. It is also made clear that should the next harvest be no better than the present, the situation will be serious. The report states: “It Is clear that no one can estimate with any precision what may be the actual consumption of the world during the period dividing us from the next harvest.” However, itiplaces the consumption of wheat in hern hemisphere countries at 0,000 bushels, adds to this the tion of the southern hemi- #phere countries, and arrives at a total estimated consumption of 3,836,643,364 hushels. Taking into account all ex- isting wheat, giggn this consumption figure, the report finds that the wheat surplus by July 31 next will be but 46,281,609 busbels, and that this sur- pius will exist because of the preceding ebundant harvest wherbby 345,385,140 bushels of stored wheat were available to add to this year's consumption. This years’ total wheat crop is there- fore but 3,491,263,224 bushels, as com- pared to 4,062,567,000 bushels last year. The report estfmates the stores of Russian wheat so far unavailable for military reasons at a total of 303,580,- 000 bushels. If this wheat is released at any time within the next calendar year, the food situation will be made gasier, though not if the next harvest ails. The report's definite fligures deal with the five important food crops of the, northern hemisphere, wheat, rye, barley, oats and corn. “It should ba borne in mind,” it states, “that these northern’ hemisphere crops are 93 per cent. of those of the whole world for wheat, 99.9 for those of rye, 99.1 per cent. of tho barley, 97.8 of the oats, nnd 94.2 of the corn. The crops in the northern hemisphere lately gath- ered, taken as a whole, are undoubted- ly bad. The wheat figures for 1916- 1915, and the average of the five-year period of 1909-13, are respectively 287,706,000 quintals, 1,095,406,000 quin- tals and 925,316,000 quintals. In other words, this year's crop is only 80.2 per cent. of that of the previous year, and 949 per cent .of the average. (A quintal is 8 2-3 bushels.) For the five cereals, the grand totals Indicate the present year's yield as but 88.7 per cent. of that of 1915 and 100.1 per cent. of the five-year period. These totals are 3,182.697,000 quintals for 26,166,000 quintals for 1915, and 0 quintals for the five-year average. Taking into count estimates of the coming harvests in the southern hemi- ephere, the report gives as the whole world’s surplus (not yield) for these hve cereals ‘172,408,000 quintals (632,- 162,666 bushels), and the total surplus at the disposal of international trade al! )14,090,000 quintals (51,063,332 bush- »ls). OBITUARY. Captain John H. Plumb, Stratford, Conn., Dec. 25.—Captain John H. Plumb, one of the first of the “tugboat captains in this vicinity, died at the home of his son here on Sunday from old age. Captain Plumb, or “Captain Jack’ as he was known to seafaring men, 85 years old and had been in the ng business on Tong Island sound from early youth until he retired about eight years ago. Two brothers, H. L. Plumb of Water- bury and Horace Plumb of Bridgeport, survive. The funeral will be helds Tuesday -NORWICH TOWN Story of the Nativity Told in Ser- mon and Music at Sacred Heapt Church—Many Holiday Visitors— Santa Claus From P. & M’s Comes by Trolley to Distribute Gifts to Methodist Sunday™ School. At Sacred Heart church Christmas morning many were in attendance at the at the first el “Alm society v:er; utiful, ropes evergreen otie with red berries * terminating wreaths, extended from the altar to the corner posts of the sanctuary. Small hemlocks were about the altar, cut flowers were placed at various points. The manger, amid hemlock boughs, with 1ts xruentshon of Mother and Child, oring shepherds end wise men, was realistic. Over all thl:w lighted candles spread a soft glow. In_the Christmas sermon, Rev. C. W. Brennan said: Many generations have been inspired and comforted by these words from Luke, Unto you is born this day in the city of David a Savior, Who is Christ the Lord. Au- gustus Caesar was then emperor of Rome and destined to be one of the greatest of pagan rulers. Countless wealth poured in, many peoples were under his control, . so an enrollment was ordered. One secret of the Ro- man power was that the authorities respected the feeling of the peoples under them,. therefore Augustus did not insist upon his way of enroll- ment but allowed them to follow their Jewish custom, each going to the town of his ancestors. So the journey of seventy miles from Nazareth to Beth- lehem was taken by Joseph and Mary. It must have been a hard journej Bethlehem,( the very name reminds us of Christ), means the house of prayer. The firstechild was called the firstborn, with special rights and priv- lleges. The place of Christ’s birth was a cave hollowed out of a rock, a place where sheep were driven in out of the storm. This was a shepherds’ country, the flock-tower is mentioned In connection with Jacob and Ilater with David in’the Old Testament. In the Holy Land sheep are pastured in separate flocks ‘and the shepherd knows each sheep, and they are cared for all through the night. All heaven was opened on the night of Christ’s birth and angels came to the shepherds with their message of peace and good will. Let us adore the Child of Bethle- hem, that there may be peace and joy in our hearts, so that all who come in contact with us may be made better. Benediction followed the mass and a selection on the violin was rendered by Miss Mary Butler, accompanied’ by Miss Flizabeth Malone at the organ. he singing during the masses was given most effectively with an admir- able blending of voices, the result of careful training. The soloists were, isses May Pounch. Mary Ryan, An. nie Pounch; also Carl Lyons, Leroy Hubbard and B. J. Houlihan. WISE MEN AND SHEPHERDS Impersonated During Christmas Sun- day Services at First Methodist Church. There was fitting music for Christ- mas at the First Methodist church on Sunday morning and evening. The pastor, Rev. E. P. Phreanor, preached eloquently from the subjects, Seekers for Christ, and Offerings for Christ. As the gifts of the wise men were described, three boys dressed in cos- tume, carrying gifts, sang, We Three Kings of Orient Are. These anthems were given at the morning service:. It Came Upon the Midnight Clear, Jud- son; and Lorenz’ The Star of Beth- lehem. At the evening services the Junior choir led in the singing of There’s a_Song in the Air, O, Little Town of Bethlehem, Angels from the Realms of Glory; they sang alone, Siient Night, while Percy Miner, and Percy and Claude Robinson acted as shepherds, carrying shepherd’s crooks. P. & M. Santa Claus. Monday evening the Sunday school entertainment was held in -the vestry. The distribution of gifts from the tree by a Santa Claus who came from Porteous & Mitchell’s by trolley, was a delight to the children.

Several other nearby cottages were in danger, but firemen from Stony Creek saved them. Mr. Verrill's olace had been unoccupied for some years. At one time it was used as a bo; school. : The fire started apparently in ihe attic, from a cause not yet determined. The firemen had a hard time geiting to the island, as a high wind was blowing and there was considerable sea. They made the trip in rowboats, carrying with them chemical appara- tus and ladders. By cutting down the tall grass near the burning cottage they prevented the fire from spreading. Had the wind not been blowing from the west, it is believed much of the summer colony would have been swept by the flames. The cottages are own- ed by persons living in various parts of Connecticut.
