Appearing in a new and distinctive}
characterization, that of an athlcllcfi
husky tramp. Douglas Fairbanks:
scores a triumph in his new Artcrul‘li
photoplny, "He Comes Up Smiling":
at the Regent Theatre Wednesday and?
Thursday. This is an admirable
screen adaptation by Frances Marion,
of the celebrated stage success oil‘tllo‘
same name produced at the Liberty,
Theatre, New York, on September 16.
1916. and in which Mr. Fairbanks piny-
ed the stellar role and which made a
hit all over the country.
Tllc'ndmirel's of Mr. Fairbanks have
cmuc to look upon every ‘now produo
tion in which he appears with nbso
lute confidence that they will not suf-
fer disappointment. and it is a safe
prediction that his latest photoplay.
not only does not disappoint. but it
serves to enhance his popularity as
a screen favorite of the night-st class.
Can you fancy Mr. Fairbanks as n
tra p—a'reully novel Knight of the

led in the northwest corner of the
Woodny Country club links last Pri-
day morning. it was rescued by
Woodway club men and people who
live in that vicinity after it had been
greatly damaged by trees upon which
it was partly suspended. swaying to
and fro in the brisk wind. A great
slash was’cnt in one side of he bag.
but this did not outta to let out all
of the go's until the bag was hauled
downward and the. gas was forced out
through the regular opening. in the
basket of the balloon was a natty luno
cheon for two, a themes bottle, a
sesrchllght, glasses and other para—
phernalia by which to identify it. the
only marks on the has being rings of
the appearance of targets, several of
them. The New Canaan selectmen
were notified and they said they would
get in touch with proper military su-
thorities. It is believed that the bal
icon was filled somewhere preparatory
to making an observation trip and that
it escaped. The bag was folded up
and carried off by New Canaan men
for safe keeping.
Appsrenfly the first Darlen soldier
to return to town with an honorable
discharge alter the conclusion of hos-
tilities is Carl Brenner, who came
home Saturday. after having spent the
entire term of his service. about a
year on da half at Camp Devens. He
therefore has the distinction of being
a veteran of the war who never left
New England. Carl was proprietor of
a local barber shop when Uncle Ban-
.csllod the boys into his service, and
was among the first in this town to be
sent to Devens under the selective
draft. The authorities at the camp
evidently concluded that 9an could
best serve Uncle Sam odiclatlng as
barber at the camp. so he was kept
there to "do his bit." although he was
willing and anxiousto cross the sea
with the other local boys.
Mlas Stillman’s Peace Party.
Miss Edith Sillirnan, one of Darlen’s
moat popular young ladies, gave, on
lat-ll Friday night. what was termed a
Thanksgiving Peace party. to the
young indies of Darien and Stamford
