ZEMZEMS ENTERTAIN BY VAUDEVILLE SHOW

Zem Zemers, when they try, are entitled to be called "community clowns." They proved It at their first stage appearance at the Murray theatre Friday night. From the time the Zem Zem orchestra, composed of Frank Holland, David Fehr, Carl Weisbrod, Bert Russell and Howard Hunt, entered the pit, until the close of the stage performance, the amused audience was uncertain what to look for next.' Frank Holland as "himself," Harry Holmes as "Laughing Pete," and Howard Hunt as "Slew-foot Mose," were a big hit. Their hat trick took the house. Walter McWhinney, Ray Stevens, HI Puckett and Frank Holland,- as the Zem Zem quartet, first sang a comic opera, which could not be beat for humor. They lated proved they could blend their voices in true quartet style when they san "Sweet Adeline." Many were disappointed when it was learned that Sam Fred, who was 1o have proven a feature attraction, was unable to be present. Throughout the evening Frank Holland proved himself an excellent host, by vocal solos, phrases of wit. and a cortlial manner. Dancing and refreshments were enjoyed following the show.

The Theatres

(Continued from Page Ten.) MURRETTE In the picturization of "Old Dad," the ETeanor Hallowell Abbott story, starring Mildred Harris Chaplin, it developed that Charlie Chaplin Is not tho only member of the Chaplin family who has the ability to extract laughs, according to the statement of Louis B. Mayer, Mrs. Chaplin's manager. In choosing a director, Mr. Mayer picked Lloyd Ingraham, who, besides being somewhat funny himself, lias a reputation for producing successful comedies. 1 "Old Dad," which will be shown as Mrs. Chaplin's latest First National release at the Murrette Theatre, beginning Sunday, is not a comedy in any sense, however. But Mr. Ingraham discovered that Mrs. Chaplin's sense of humor is of the keenest 301-t. Consequently he injected just enough comical situations to keep the story from becoming too heavy and to permit the charming little blond star to show her hitherto hidden talent. Mildred is Roing to stick with the serious-minded drama, but that isn't going to keep her from developing a humorous situation every once in a while, according to Mr. Mayer.

ONE MAN, AND WHAT HE DID He was in the background of all their lives sinister, shadowy, evil, threatening. To little Elsie he brought suffering untold. To the loving mother-heart he brought stark tragedy.- To Janet ho brought indirectly unhappiness. And in the end he reaped his just reward, for Right triumphed, as it always must. No more engrossing story of life was ever brought to the screen than that which is told in this gripping drama. It has countless thrills, innumerable dramatic incidents, and it is brightened thruout by a charming love tale.
