'''':J""-"Jr-: - -'r'.'fJjfiKA 3' -.V THE CHILDREN OF THE PHILIPPINE COMMISSIONER. The Baby of Thfs Group Speaks Three Languages Visayan, Spanish and English. Permit ns to present the De Veyra family. The Hon. Jaime 0. de Veyra Is the Resident Commissioner from the Phil ippine Islands to the United States and has just been elected to a second term of three years. As Resident Commis sioner he has a" seat on the floor of toe American Congress, the privilege of taking part In debates, although no vote. Commissioner de Veyra has an inters eating wife and four bright Filipino kiddles. The De Veyra family. Individ ually and collectively, constitute the best argument as to the tact and capa bilities of Filipinos that the Philippine Islands have in Washington. The commissioner is a 100 per cent Filipino,' a Visayan, and Is one of the foremost leaders of the party In power In the Islands. During American occu pation he has been successively gov ernor of his province, member of the Philippine legislature, cabinet mem ber and executive secretary of the Islands. Like many statesmen -of the Philip pines, he was originally a newspaper man. He was one of the founders of El Nnevo Dia of Cebuthe first Fili pino paper published advocating Phil ippine Independence. The paper came under the censorship -of General Mc Intyre, and on the appearance of the first number the editors were 'left In the singular position of seeing every prominent article blue penciled. Mrs. de Veyra, like her husband, Is a "live wire" in the Philippines' cause. She Is the best known Flllpina In America. She is an interesting public speaker and Is constantly giving Illus trated lectures at women's clubs and other gatherings.

THE HYPERION. Next week at the Hvoerion will "see the production of the first musical com edy this season by the Hyperoin Play ers and the selection is none other than the recent success. "Leave It to Tane." which is in reality a musical version of Ueorge Ade s tremendously successful stage play, "The Collesre Widow." And both on Broadway and on the road .Leave It to Jane was credited with having the most tuneful numbers of any musical comedy production that has been evolved in several years. The scsenes are laid at Atwater College, a sman town university ot learning, and it runs the gamut with a football at mosphere, the college waitress and the usual assortment of types to be found in jerkwater college : towns. Eva Oli- votti, a fascinating girlie with a won derful range of voice, has been especial ly engaged to play and sing the role of "Jane," and the cast will be further augmented by. the Atwater College Quartet one of the best male sineine fours in the east and this with that captivating chorus of New Haven girlies, an even dozen of them, and with singing and dancing ability plus will all go to help make the production most pretentious in every way. Al though Miss Olivotti has been engaged for prima donan, Miss Arnold, the leading lady of the Players, has an ex ceptionally good voice and likewise she has had experience in the big musical comedies and the value of Eric Dressier as a singer in productions of this kind has been noted before, "Leave It to Jane" ought to do the biggest business of the season at the Hyperion for it is certainly going to be the biggest and best production of the entire season and the New Haven chorus gives it a local interest. This Sunday night there will be the usual fine cinema concert with Cop stance Talmadge topping the bill ap pearing in lhe Lrirr of the limber Claims" which they do say is one of the most interesting stories she has ever been screened in and a novel departure will be the five reel comedy "La La Lucille," from the French play of .that t tie shown on the screen with-Lyons and Moran as the chief fun makers. Another comedy will be "You Tell 'Em Lions, I Roar," and there will be the Universal News right up to the minute with news and views of the world at large. Seats for the Sunday night con certs may be reserved in advance by making application at the box office. THE BIJOU. ed States," says Mrs. de Veyra, "1 do not mean to Infer we are perfect, for we are not My people have most of the defects, I suppose, that other hu mans have, but at the same time we are far . from the people that many Americans have been made to believe. Not only are we a Christian people, but our race has a history that we are not ashamed of. Throughout the Phil ippine Islands the people are now working earnestly to Improve them selves and their conditions so they will be prepared to take over their own af fairs. We all love America for giving us a chance to help ourselves and for having promised us our Independence, which Is one of the dearest desires of the entire citizenship of the Island.." To American women whose ideas of Filipinos have been founded on Sue day supplement descriptions of wild tribes, Jfrs. de Veyra's gentle manner and evident culture have been a reve lation. She Is sought by women's clubs because of her charming manner as an impromptu speaker on the subject nearest her heart the women of her country. At a recent Washington gathering she gave In perfect English a concise account of the work of a woman's club in Manila which supplies milk to the babies of the poor and trains mothers to care for their young children. , She told of another woman's club which has branches all over the Philippine Islands and which maintains day nurseries for the children of the work ing women, provides Christmas cheer for the lepers, the insane and the con victs, and gathers data to influence leg islation for the benefit of Filipino wo men and children. The four little De Veyras, shown m the picture, having attended the pub lic schools In Manila, slipped right Into the same grades In the schools" of Washington. Even little Mary, the baby of the family, speaks three lan guages her native tongue', Spanish and English. If you were given an opportunity to study - the methods of the foremost diver of the world, would you seize that opportunity and witness the an alyization of Annette Kellerman's won derful diving? If so, you will undoubt edly be one of those that will attend the performances at the Bijou theatre dur ing the first half of the week starting Sunday, for Miss Kellerman is being exclusively shown there in a film which analyzes her best dives by means of the slow motion camera. This wonder ful feature will be shown in conjunc tion with the regular big moving picture and vaudeville program. This picture of Miss Kellerman is probably the most remarkable ever filmed and should attract great atten tion during the short showing in New Haven. In it Miss Kellerman's dives are shown with the ordinary speed camera and then with the ultra-speed camera which gives the effect of slow motion. Annette Kellerman has long been known as the "Diving Venus" and is ci edited with having the most perfect form in the world. In the slow motion sections of the picture every move of that beautiful body is revealed in all its wonderful grace, and the Vesult will prove interesting- to even those not in terested in diving. 'The Art of Div ing" will be shown at every perform ance starting tomorrow and lasting un til Thursday. The feature picture for the first half oi tne weeK is rooa ior acanaai, v starring Wanda Hawley, that talented star who has been making such rapid strides during the last few months. Miss Hawley is supported by that popular leading man, Harrison Ford, and an extremely capable cast. The story of the picture is something like this : Sylvia's family was the old est and bluest-blooded in the West, but her ancestors hadn't left her much material wealth. A family name is de sirable but money has its use! Not only was Sylvia fshy on money but the man she loved, Wat Dinwiddie, was a lawyer of promise but no practice, f Watt decided that he must not ask Slyvia to marry him until he was well along on the road to prosperity. It feemed a long road to Sylvia, who set her wits werking to get business for her young lawyer-loven She got him clients all right, but when she was obliged to act as co-respondent, her own love match was almost extinguished. The vaudeville bill is headed by Billie Burke's "Independent Party," a real vaudeville oddity presented with a big enst of Broadway favorites, and a quantity of special scenery. This is described as one of vaudeville's most timely offerings and has made a great hit everywhere that it has been shown. ;; Sully, Rogers and Sully have a com edy trairpoline and bar act that is one of the best of its kind and should prove very popular during the short stay in the Elm City. The Kewpie Girls are a pair of clever girls in a singing and dancing novelty. Both these girls are clever as well as pretty and always go across big'. - : Lazar and Dale, a pair of black-face comedians, are well known in New Ha- Jven. and their r-appearance here is awaited with t considerable interest by the vaudeville lovers. Lark. Lanning, '-The Movie Man," will open the bill 'in usual big time fashion. The feature picture for the last half ol the week is "Where Is My Hus brnd?" a British film featuring Jose Collins, an American girl. This is said to be a very interesting and timely pic tuie of today. j LIQUOR FINES. z.V Bridgeport, Oct. 15.
