ATTHEflllEATRiB “Rnntsllnckle House” Today is the last appearance of Betty Compact: at the Rialto thea- tre in "anshackle House." which won over the large audience at yea- terday's presentations. "Barbara Fricichie.” the picture which the Picadilly theatre of New York out or a large range of selec- tions took for in openlxm presenta— tion, will begin a three—day engage- ment at the Rialto tomorrow. This great heroine lauded in story, song and the pages of history brought to life on the screen with all her fer- vent patriotism, courageous con— stancy and enduring charm. is par- trayed in an immortal drama, trans- ferred to the screen in a gigantic production magnificently executed. The great historic incident of Barbara Frietchie defiantly waving the Union flag in face of the victor- ious Confederate troops is accurately ”produced in the screen version. The historic meeting between the iron clad Monitor and Morr‘mzac at Hampton Roads is reproduced not only with accuracy but with a fine maintenance of the thrill and impor- tance of this encounter. This naval engagement possessed a world im- portance and significance because it wartbeflrst meeting between iron clad battleships. the forerunners of ‘ the steel monsters of today. The management has made or— rangements.to hold a special school children's matinee tomorrow after— noon nt 4 o'clock so the children can have the opportunity or viewing the visualization of this picture of our greatest national heroine who for generations has typified and glorified American girlhood. RMENT. "hinnhnndlcd." "Manhandled," Gloria Swanson‘s new Paramount picture, which is at the Regent theatre during today and tomorrow. was produced by Allan Dwan from Frank Tuttlc's adapta- tion of Arthur Stringer-'3 story that rnn serially in The Saturday Evening Post. Miss Swanson has the role of a shop girl in a department store, whose desire for beautiful clothes and a so-called good time leads her into free and easy contact with so many men that her reputation is lar- nished. She learns that the love of precious than expensive Jewelry and : gorgerous furs. In preparation for the part Gloria spent several strenuous days of close-up study of how shop girls ir New York live. She wot-iced for a day in one or New York‘s largest de- partments. rode in the subway, ate her meals in a. boarding house and went through the general routine the average shop girl follows during the day. A superb cast surrounds Gorgeous Gloria. Tom Moore gives an excel- lent portrayal of the poor mechanic. for whom Gloria renounce: all worldly pleasures. Others in the supporting cast include Ian Keith and Lilyan Tashman. PALACE. “The Yankee Consul.” "The Yankee Consul." Douglas MacLean's laziest comedy picture now at the Palace Theatre where it will be at today’s matinee and three times Wednesday, is the funniest picture in which this youthful star has ever appeared. With each scene more tensely comic than the one preceding it, the plot builds up to the final climax. It is memory or a. young man who is transported. against his will; to a mysterious castle in South America where circumstances fol-cc him to impersonate the American consul. He is confronted with weighty inter; national problems. including the necessity of rescuing a beautiful girl from the hands of conspirators. "The Yankee Consul"'1s in adap- tation of the famous musical comedy success of twenty years ago which established Ramona Hitchcock as a stage star. In the leading feminine role is Patsy Ruth lliller, who proves a. young woman of unusual ability and striking beauty. James W. Horne directed the picture. It is even funnier than “Gem; Up," Douglas Madonna first inde- pendent picture. - ms mm HERE The Not-walk Police department received a telegram yaterdsy from W. J. Hatfield. sheriff of chouell Gamay.

A dark ob ect reflects but li a of the light t falls upon it—perhaps less than Tue-fourth; a light colored object reflects n large part of the light-— perhaps three-quarters. I! we are to see objects, the light must fall upon them and be re- iiected from them. The more darkly they are colored, the more light is needed to enable us to see _ them. The light that falls on ob. jects which We wish to see may be termed useful light. Most electric lamp bulbs when used without shade: or reflectors throw out light in all directions-—just as much to the ceiling and walls of a room us down to the table top. Vi'cll de- signed shades are made so that they not only soften the light. but also reflect some light that would otherwise be wasted and direct it downward and outward to the ob- jects that we wish to see. . l- GLOQM Pmpe’ :- lighting requires two filings: First. that there be enough light so that the eye can see quick- ly and easily; and second, that this light be shaded and so placed in the room that the eye is not strained by glare. Many homes have soft, shaded light that is too dim for good vision; others have enough light but harmful glare is s part of it; too few homes have plenty of light without glare, which is necessary for proper lighting and tb protection of eyesight. The eye is truly a wonderful or- gan. Because it does not always immediately complain, we 'often make it work under great dificulty, and strain it. Have you ever stopped reading because of a feeling of discern. fort? You have a headache with- out any reason for it that you can think of, or your eyesjeel tired, or you find that you cannot fix your attention on your book or paper. You may find later that these are signs you were straining your eyes. We can see under a dim light. but we can see more easily and more quickly if we have more light. When we live day after day with too little light, we are likely to find that our eyesight is afiecbed, and that we may need glasses. Then we know we have strained LESSON N0. 2 THE PROPER 'USE OF LIGHT HOW WE SEE 'mbedeterlninedinflu 6‘ \ our eyes until they cannot do their work without help. \ DECORATE wrra LiGH‘l: Up to this point we have thought of lighting only as it helps us to see easily—in other words, as it is useful. 0! course, this is very important in room in the home, and everyw ere else. But when we light out horns, we ' want the lighting to males such room pleasant an attractive, and our lighting, except for the work rooms (the kitchenhths laundry, the basement and attic) , should ‘0 as much of a decoration or ema- ment as the pictures and rugs and mm 8.

Don‘t use bright lights 'agsinst adark bach. Don‘t try to read in a dim light that tin-om eyes. Don‘t let your lighting equip- ment get dirty. Clean it regularly. Dust and dirt may cause you to lose as much as one-half or em three-fifths of the light that the bulbs produce and that you are paying for. Don’t depend on taking out light bulbs to connect appliances and ' portable lamps. Have convenience outlets put in for this purpm Don‘t be indifferent to the pres- an yonor ervation of your eyesight.

Oct. iii-Hope of acquiring the Sherwood Island hold- ings of syndicates for a. State Park by other than condemnation pro- ceedings has been abandoned by the State Park Realty Association, 1111:...

He urged that support be 'given be insure action by the Legislature. He said he had been Manned by representatives at the Westport group that there was considerable opposition on the part of “100' mil- lionaires in Westport” to the state‘s acquiring the land for park pur— poses. The rejoinder to this was. he said: ”It there are 100 millionaires in Westport they ought to buy the land and give it to the state." park would be much more desirable than rows of cottages and shacks. he stated. men in Prices. Mr. Filley'spoke oi ‘the increase and shifting in population in the State since 1820 and of the State Park commission‘s development at Hammonassett beach in New Haven county. Disappointment alter disap- pointment has been met with in pisnsior the Sherwood Island devel~ opment, largely because of high prices asked “it looks as if this was the last chance." he said. “People in the cities must have after quoting figures to snow that in 1820 the population of the state was 270,000. three towns only hating more than 6.000 inhabitants. Today. the population at the state is 1.— 380.000, 28 towns have 75 per cent of the population. and the popula- tion 0'! 'Fairiieid county is 320,000. he said. It is up to the state to pro- vide beaches for people in the back country, he asserted. "Is it right to have the shore built up so closely that people who do not own it have no access to it?" he asked. Mr. Senior spoke briefly. He claimed that "unless the Legislature provides the money at its next ses- sion. it is absolutely certain that we will never have a. park at Sherwood island." A bill for $250,000 to buy the land required will be introduced. he said, asking that this bill be sup- ported. Mr. Filler, at the request of Pres!” dent Georie E. Crawford. spoke about state forests, A goal of 200,- ‘000 acres of state forests has been set by the commission. of which 10,000 acres have been acquired in small patches during the last 23 years. ’ Importation of lumber “is all ~right as long as the supply in other regions lasts," he said. But the time will come when importation costs will become prohibitive therefore a forward policy , in retorestation should be maintained. looking to the future, he stated. A million and a halt acres in the state are suitable for iorest land, he stated, adding that he expected considerable money will be appropriated by the state next year for rarest land. m BY RUNAWAY AUTO.
