I If 1 i a i i I I manuuLnucbL i SCORES AT MAJESTIGj Touch of Tragedy in Unusually Fine Story of "Prunella" as Feature Film. Critics are wont ta rave about the alluring fascination of Marguerite Clark. There are some, perhaps, who have at times doubted the sagacity of this reiteration. But if any of this latter class strayed to the Majestic Theater yesterday, to watch the dainty 6tar as "Prunella," who knew neither love nor raiety in her desire for "maidenly modesty," they came away convinced of her ineffable charm. The story of "Prunella" Is especially adapted to her temperament It Is half mocking fantasy, half common sense and.

a touch of tragedy: The destiny of Prunella lies in the hands of three aunts of uncertain vintage. Accentuated virtue, drawn to the point of absurdity, bars out love, the soft breath of spring, even the twittering birds. And all because Prunella's mother, very much like her daughter in spirit, had run away with an artist ho had carved a marble image of I.nv it tne garden Pierrot, whn mien a troupe of carnival players, creeps in i mt aiuen gate, lures tne little frunella away to his eventually marries hr hovels and And in the ecstacy of his affection he calls her "Pierrette." But the dutiful exactions of marital life do not suit Pierrot. There comes an evil day when he leaves her Tht-n she buries her love with the dead things of autumn, markes the head-1 stone: Here lies Pierrette," and w-anders toward her old home. In the meantime, he repents, and buvs tne nouse wnere he had first met her.

But when she cornea to the donr pecting joyous welcome, they do not ner. uown in the garden, wnere lxive cold form still sleeps, she lies down to die. But livo speaks to her, she hears the call of rierrot in ner dreams, and the fad- nig autumn is turned to spring. mere is an official British war picture ot tne care and consideration shown to German prisoners in F.n. land.

One marvels at the elaborate schedule with which these enemies re occupied. entire svstem contrasts sharply with recent reports of the Hun attitude toward allied soldiers interned in their land. And so there is scant sympathy from the audience, who would advocate less deference and more punishment. The "uiiuii-noimea travel pictures com plete an Interesting program. Shoots Mad Dog.

Owing to a general tightness In the money market throughout the state, most of the business which Is being handled by the Hartford sav Inge banks and trust companies In demand mortgages is nowi paying 8 per cent, instead of 5, as formerly.

Wonderful Lucile Gowns Important Feature in "The Reason Why." Clara Kimball Toung makes a perfect Elinor Glyn heroine in "The Reason Why," now playing at the Strand. If in addition to the genuine beauty and the soulful eyes of the popular star anything else were necessary to complete the temperamental authoress's matchless Ideal me eternal teminine, surely the delicious gowns made by Lucile, and wnicn Miss Kimball carries with such grace, would furnish it. The plot of 'The Reason Why" moves from the most sordid quarters of Moscow to the most elf.jr.mt circles of London an A tains all the other elements of high romance. Besides, high romance there is also high finance of a sort In tho story, and that is the reason true love did not move sr.icothly for Zara Zenova. the beautiful Russian girl, impersonated by Miss Ym.nr Coming to England as the penniless niece or the rich Markiute.

3 TINY AMERICANS AT BABY HOSPITAL Opening Day Has Small Registra- won. Three little American babies welcomed the opening of the Babies Hospital at the corner of Vine street and Mather, yesterday morning, being registered there within an hour after Its opening. The hospital Is In an ideal situation almost like the country, as there are no houses nearby, and it is composed of several buildings the sides of which may be opened giving excellent ventilation. The three wards contain sixty beds and the four nurses and four High School girl assistants are housed In tents. Not more than (4 a week is charged and if the families are unable to pay that amonnt and it is found they are worthy, the children are taken free.

No babies under two months or over two years are taken. There are usually more foreigners during the busy 'season, but there is an average of about fifteen patients a week. The foreign-born who live in unhealthy quarters and know so little about the practical care of infants, are gaining more confidence in the help which is offered to them. They used the milk stations all win ter and will as usual, no doubt, take advantage of this splendid onoor- tunity of giving their babies the best possioie cnance of health, bv proper care during the hot months. Anv baby who is sick may be sent to this i nospitai.

tne nest medical care is given tree, wnn trained nurse to care for them. These little citizens ot tomorrow must not be forgotten the mad rush to save the soldiers of today, and all married women who are graduate nurses are urged to offer some of their time to th's splendid institution, as are all Drae tical nurses.

WAR BUREAU HEARS REPORTS OF WORK Alexander Bunce Appointed Executive Secretary. Appearing yesterday before the Hartford War Bureau. William Hamersley, chairman of the civilian committee of Hartford Chapter, American Red Cross, said that this committee hag nearly completed a survey of the resources in this city. The plan is to be ready to give Immediate relief to any stricken section, in case of a disaster. Statements have been taken of the stock of goods carried by the merchants, the hospitals are being organizei, and other steps are being taken to insured the giving of immediate relief.

This is in compliance with a plan of the Connecticut State Council of Defense. Mr- Hamersley explained that the information will be classified, and be so arranged that sueedv le- sults may be obtained should the occasion arise. The preliminary work has been completed. He suggested that different types of committee members be named by Mayor Richard J. Kinsella to care for the relief work, saying that a man named on a committee to provide means of support for a workman thrown out of work because of a factory conflagration might not be fitted to ar range plans for rehabilitation in case of a serious fire in the tenement house district.

The bureau approved the plan and appointed Mr. Hamersley to take charge. Following the suggestion of Mr. Hamersley, the bureau voted to endorse the plan of the civilian relief committee of the Red Cross to pro-t'ide gold stars for the families of men who are killed in action, the stars to be provided for all districts in which the Hartford chapter hus Jurisdiction. On motion of Secretary Philip A.

Mason, it was voted to turn over to this committee the gold stars Tyhlch the local war bureau now has. The bureau adopted the recommendation of the executive committee that Alexander Bunce be appointed executive secretary. Mr. Bunce, who will superintend, the work in the bureau headquarters, will'bezin his new duties today. He will do the work, for the present at least, without remuneration.

Since the hireau was organized, this work has been done by Mr. Mason, superintendent of public buildings, but it has become necessary for him to relinquish it on account of his other duties. Mr. Mason will continue as secretary of the bureau, however. A circular letter set out by the state canning committee to the cnairman or tne nome economics committee in all the towns in the state was read, and it was voted to refer It to the publicity committee.

Tne letter says: "The department of agriculture nas asKed the women and children of Connecticut to can 8,000,000 quarts of fruits and vegetables for their winter use, in order that the 35 per cent, of the factory output remaining arter me troops here and in ranee have been provided for may Be left for the families of th women employed in factories and i nose wno. have a proper equip mem at nome. Jn order to urge and encourage the housewives of Connecticut to make this necessary-effort the committee has decided to lorm a Connecticut canning corps, mm to enron as many women as possiDie during the second week In JUly from July 7 to July 14). asking them to pledge themselves to can a oennite number of quarts for the use of their families." A. A.

Welch, reporting on the work of the Americanization committee, said that Dr. Jane Robblns, who has been in charge of this department, is to leave soon for Italy, where she will do Red Cross work. A successor will be appointed soon. Mr. Welch praised the work of this committee in this city, and said that he had been told that the work In Hartford was far ahead of any other city in New England.

Two representatives of the Polish White Cross: Mrs. O. Jewski and Miss Midura. appeared to ask the co-operation of the war bureau in their work. It was explained that the Polish White Cross is similar to the Red Cross.

It was voted to cooperate. C. C. Hemenway, reporting for the food committee, spoke of the milk station and recommended that the diet kitchen be continued next winter. He said, also that arrangements have been completed for the war work activities in the schools oiir.ng the summer months, and Miss Annie J.

Robertson will be in charge. William Brosmith, recently named jiinu Minn or tne Hartford war savines committee, was made a member of the bureau. 40 Enrolled in 1. S. R.

I in Van Buren, as Ambrose Peale, Breeze Press Agent, Puts Punch in Play. "What kind of a raivr do you use What kind of breakfas? food do you eat and why? The power of sug gestion! The ps.vchology of print! Advertising! Absolutely!" says A.

H. Van Buren in the role of Ambrose Peale, the breezy press, agent in "It Pays to Advertise" as given by the Poli Players at the Palace this week. The Megrue-Hackett comedy of policies seems to De wen adapted to the versatility of the players. Mr. Van Buren in the Will Iteming part of the press agent whose "home, yacht and meals" consist of advertising, dominates the entire play by his whole-souled slangy speech, breeziness and power of making everybody believe in his doctrine and like his mannerisms, in spite of the fact that he is the discharged Mercury of "The Belle Broadway," It is a part which seems out of place when we associate it with the man who has played romantic heroes, and yet it ia in a way similar to the leading role that he interpreted in "Nothing But the Truth." Mr.

Fillmore has a gold mine of opportunities in the Grant Mitchell part of young Rodney Martin, the feather-brained chap who nearly drives his father, man of soap dollar majesty, out of business bv his advertising of his own "13 Soap. Un lucky for Dirt," and when the orders come in finds that he has built up a bus ness on a catchy trade mark. The role of the too ingenious boy just escaped from college is a hard one, to make realistic. but Mr. Fillmore puts a great deal of conviction into the part, and the change in character from an irresponsible boy to a hard-headed business man is well handled.

Miss illiams. in the role of the Countesse De Beaurien, the adventuress, showed a rapid flow of the French language through the first two acts of the olav with a remark able Parisian smoothness and sur prised everybody when she lansed into the choice Bowery "so long. kid! lingo, she was easily the best actress tne farce, nut, of course, she had a wider variety of opportunities than Miss Rittenhouse as Mary Grayson, the stenoeraoher wnn no scruples as to how she raised money. Mr. Osborn cast as Cyrus Martin, the Soan King, has part the most suited to his acting since nis appearance with the play.

ers ana ne aoes much to carrv every scene In which he is on. One of tne big disappointments in the entire play was the unfortunate casting of such a capital character actor as Mr. Dawley in the role of Ellery v.nannmg, a congenial idiotic dude, Mr. Dawley is worthy of better things as he has proved by his act ing in Common Clay and "Ro mance," for instance. The advertisers of Hartford have tahen advantage of "It Pays to Ad vertise' by placing advertisements in tne upper boxes about the theater.
