DANIELSON Rev, M. Joseoh Twomey, D.D., pastor of the Peddie Memorial church at New- ark. N. I, formerly pastor of the Dan- Baptist church, was greeted bY many friends during a visit to Danjelson Tuesday. i Dr. Twomey camd from Newark to at- tend the fumeral of his father-in-law, Avery Amos Stan‘on, held In Ekonk Mcrday.

Gates of Willimantic, Charles Bragg of Central Village, George Briggs of Voluntown, Judge Sa- bin 8. Russell of Danielson and Harold Mowry of Sterling. There isn’t & sign to indicate up to the present time that Danielson will officlally or semi-officially engage in any observ- ance of the Fourth prospect Is that Independence day will be allowed to pass with only such individual observ- ance as may appeal to any person or to fam'ly groups. The zest for the old-time celebrations seems to have passed. Morning parades of antiques and horribles and afterncon parades that had all the glamor of a pa- triotic spectacle seem to have gone per- manently into the discard. The enthu- masw and public sipirit—and hari work ~—that entered into the making of them is nc longer in evidence. The modern method of celebrating the day s to motor to some distant resort, his one's self to a baseball game or a dance and let the old home town drows- tly pass the day much as a Sunday is paszsed.

ANNOUNCEMENTS Broadway Theatre. ¥or the last half of this week the Broadway Players will prisent an en- tire change of show, presefiting new - tumes, scenery, songs, dancing, come- dy and in fact an absolute complete change. Their offering is called “The Morning After. This is a highly amus- ing musical comedy that you are sure to_enjoy. Bluebeard, Jr.” which comes to the Broadway theatre starting tomorrow, features Mary Anderson, a well known screen star, and tells a mile-a-mimute farce story of a young wife and hus- hand whose trouble becomes most in- volved through the greediness of a iandlord’s raising their rent to the Im- it. How the couple rent a small apart- ment, the only one in town only to find that they cannot occupy it for another | day, now they sleep in a worn out old “filvver” how they quarrel, as all couples do and decide to go their own way, how the husband becomed in- volved with three “wives" the sobriguet of “Bluebeard, Jr.” is all told in a decidedly novel fashion with a well known cast of farceurs which in- larly can be made more attractive to every member of your household., and more beneficial in_a healthful way, by adding raisins. This is especially true in warm weather, when the excessive heat saps so much of your emergy. A good starter is raisin bread—buy a loa! from your baker tonight and serve It regularly. Its popularity in your home and its ability to replenish tired reople toward the end of a warm day will surprise you. —_— “Queen of Shebs” Draws Crowds; Scores Big Hit. “Queen of Bheba,” at the Bread the- ater has Scored a tremendous sensation. and the theatrs tas been packed to the doors dafly since the first showing of this remarkable screen production.
