The story aliowed spectacular treatment, and Arteraft has produced it on a lav- ich scale, making it a notable offer- ing and cne of the most pretentious vet issmel from the Artcraft studios. The reproduction of tha Venetian set- tings are well done, with picturesque canals and romantic gondolas. Mag- nificent settings and an_extraordinary supporting cast, including such weil known players as Frank Campeau, Eileen Percy and Fugene Ormonde, make thiz film an exceptional attrac- tion. Dorothy Dalton, whose recent tri- umph in “The Flame of the Yukon,” is recalled by photoplay-goers _the country over, will be seen in “The Price Mark,” a six act feature. This is a Thomas H. Ince production—the first he has made with Miss Dalton for Paramount. The scenes of “The Price Mark” are located in Egypt and New York city.

At the Orpheum theater Wednes- day the Bon Ton Musical Comedy company, which plaved to big open- ing business on Christmas day, azain pleased an andience that found the comedians and other members of the company very good entertainers. More Than 1,600 Enrolled. Manager F. E. Storer’s report on the Red Cross campaign here showed that up to Wednesday more than 1.- 600 members had been enrolled. Wed- nesday’s figures will be increased by belated returns, so that the Daniel- son district may be able to report that it has exceeded its allotment by approximately 500 members. The dis- trict was expected to produce 500 members. Union St. John Officers. The following is the list of the new- Iy elected officers of the Union St John Baptist, No. 52: Doyen, L. J.

Lavallee, Arthur Viens, Nestor Godreau. Record Holiday Trade. Christmas business at .stores here | shows that Danielson is at the ,top notch of prosperity. New records were made in many a store in the business section during the past ten days and Wednesday, the first day after the holiday, found the business and men in excellent humor. The statement was repeatedly made that the Christmas sales were far ahead of any records heretofore made in Danielson. The very liberal business is ac- counted for in a number of ways. Un- doubtedly the chief reason for the filood of money that poured throqgh trade channels is the surprisingly high wages being paid in manufacturing plants in Danielson and vicinity. The payrolls of these concerns are thous- ands of dollars weekly over what they ever were before at Christmas time. There is plenty of work for every- one and about everyone is working. Another factor in _boosting the Christmas trade undoubtedly was the money released to hundreds of mem- Lers of Christmas and Thrift clubs conducted during the last twelve months by the commercial banks in town. It is estimated that nearly $30,000 was released to members of Christmas and Thrift clubs conducted during the last twelve months by the commercial banks in town. Tt is es- timated that nearly $30,000 was re- leased to members of these clubs on December 15. Much of this went to swell the Christmas trade, though not all_of it. Christmas of 1917 found business in Danielson enjoying such a high degree of prosperity as to astonish business men of many years' experi- ence. Many of them made great rec- ords in their stores last year, but this year all past records were eclipsed. Write Home for Tobacco. Danielson boys who.are in France with the American forces are writ- ing home for American cigarettes, ci cars and tobacco. Letters that have arrived here within the last 48 hours feature that plea from “over there™ as the most pressing. Like the Ca- nadian soldiers, they are not accus- tomed to the French tobacco and can- not_smoke it with comfort. Those who want to send gifts to the soldiers cannot please the fighting men with anything more to their lik- ing than some real smckes from the T. S. A. ( “T'd give a week’s pay for just one good American cigar or package of tobacco,” one hankering youngster states, in a letter that has just been received from France. It has been sugzested that a tobac- co fund be established in Danielson tc supply the men this town sends to France with plenty of smakes. FUNERAL George B. Sweet. At the home of his niece, Mrs. Lydia Place, in Foster, Wednesday, funeral services for George B. Sweet, former- 1y of Danielson, were conducted by Rev. E, A. Legg, pastor of the Dan- ielson Methodist church. The bear- ers were Elwood Sweet, Josiah Owens, Byron Place and_Walter Coliins. Bur- ial was in the Line Store cemetery, at Foster. (oA: F.

It is estimated that the dis- trict already, has furnished between 250 and 300 men. for the army and navy, and the majority of them are registered men. FRED ROBINSON SUICIDES Former Pomfret Man, Brooding Over Draft, Shoots Himseif. The body of Fred Robinson, 24, who shot himself in the head with a re- volver bullet at Greenfield, Mass., the @day before Christmas arrivea here on ‘Wednesday morning. Robinson for- merly lived in Pomfret, where his mother is now a resident. It is believed that brooding over the draft was the cause of Robinson’s taking b#s life. He had been mentally upset for a considerable time . over the prospect of going into the army and the subject preyed upon his mind constantly, it is said. LIKE STEAM ROAD Shore Line Trolley Cars Checked in at Col_1ail| Stations. Under a plan that became effec- tive Wednesday, the operation of cars on the Putnam division of the Shore Line Electric Railway company, West Thompson to Central ,Vjllage, is now | under a system much after the style used on steam roads. Bach car or “train” has its number on the time cards that have been is- sued and, the crews are required to check in &nd out at certain points on the line, just the same as steam trains do. Danielson and Elmville, which are terminal stations are checking in points, and registers have been placed at stations there for the use of the car crews. The crews found the rules added somewhat to their duties on ‘Wednesday, but the regulations were observed with care by the experienced men who operate the cars through this city.
