HEATERS

r MURRAY VAUDEVILLE -'Another bill of big-time quality is underlined to open at The Murray next Monday" comprising eight acts for the full week. Heading Monday is La Toy and Vestal comedians in their comedy skit "The Inebriate and The Bachelor In Something Different These artists are of European origin; and are great favorites it The Hippodrome and Victoria Theatres London, while recently they made their American debut at The Palace, New York City, ; where they met with instant success. Waiman and Berry.-a clever duo in "A Treat in Music" employing their own stage setting; Sinclair and Gray, two clasy young ladies who have a bicycle act which they call "The Cycle of Youth"; and Mohr and Vermont in "Songs and Smiles" .complete the bill. : - The following is a brief synopsis of the latter act: Such a combination of talent assuredly argues well for the entertainmeniof Vaudeville patrons, and rightly so To thte eiceptio&ally talented vocdlduo tMtteent'an differing called "'Songs and Smiles," that will completely entrtChCe their auditors. Restricted song numbers .with just enough comedy interest to .add to- the offering are rendered 4s solos '.. and duets. Mr. Mohr's splendid baritone voice and personality in conjunction with Miss Vermont's hghly cultivated soprano, attractive appearance and remarkable beauty makes them an ideal combination of entertainers who are

fully canah re of? carrying ; out their

billing caption- of "Songs and Smiles" perfectly.

Headlining the bill Thursday for the last half Will Stanton and Company of four in the spectacular scenic musical comedy success "Then and Now." This act, was a late feature of The New York Winter Garden Show, and is proving an immense hit in vaudeville this season. The setting is representative of a New York cafe on New Years eve when prohibition was in full swing;" whbn wine, women and song came in for their own, then the s-cene suddenly contrasted to present conditions, forming the nucleus for a classy, artistic sketch with an abundance of comedy. Also on this bill is Jean Gibson. "The Galll Curci of Syncopation, Ernest Dupille in Wit and Humor" and Grace Ayer and brother. MURRAY Eileen Percy, the William Fox star, lias a fine story, and a lively one, in ' The Land of Jazz," which shows for 1he first time here Monday at the Murray Theatre., . J This is a picture rich throughout in pood, wholesome laughter and was applauded at the end of each showing. "The Land of Jazz" in this cafe is an island where a doctor is observing especially the actions of patients who have indulged too freely in Jazz dancing. He has a shimmy patient who in a wonder. In fact, he is so attractive that he gets everybody on the island shimmying, including Miss Percy and the doctor. "The Land of Jazz" is a picture worth seeing. There are 3,000 feet of reel, and jollily in every foot of, it. . ' MURRETTE. Theyare eyen building railroads right inside the studio lot these days. Witness Charles Ray's production of "Nineteen and Phyllis." his third First National release, whieh will be .the screen attraction at 'the Murrette theatre, beginning Sunday. So many of the scenes in the photoploy require the popular star to appear on an anliquated small town , trolley car, that he decided it would be more satisfactory to have his own tracks and car, rather than to borrow the use of a regulartransportation company's line. In "Nineteen and Phyllis," the Vixville "Rapid Transit" car, which is . capable of "making' at least four'miles

an hour, plays a very important part in the unfolding of a very romantic incident and- also figures in some of the most amusing scenes of this story by Frederick Stowers. Another interesting feature of "Nineteen and Phyllis" is the fact that that Mr. Ray is departing from his usual country boy role, and will be seen as a "real swell" small town Beau Erummel. "The arrival of a breezy, city youth causes him much sorrow, for his greatest efforts are surpassed by the big town dandy; but by enlisting the aid of several tried and true confederates in the person of some ragged urchins, he outwits the rival and wins for himself the heart and hand of the belle of the town. PALACE The most virile production of the year thus did the New York critics and the motion picture public proclaim "The Border Legion," the remarkable picturization of Zane Grey's gripping story, when the powerful action-drama of the West, starring Blanche Bates and Hobart Bosworth, scored an instantaneous and continued triumph in its week's presentation at the Strand Theatre, New York. In her brilliant debut on the screen Miss Bates' performance in "The Border Legion" unquestionably equals

ituiy of her world famed achievements

on the speaking stage, not excepting even her portrayal in "The Girl of the Golden West," Miss Eates' first Belasco success, the heart-throbbing incidents of which have Iheir parallel in the stirring situations of her first screen triumrh. Remarkably finished, too, is the acting of Hobart Bosworth, a name always associated with all that is forceful and compelling in stage and screen portrayal. "The Borden Legion" is the work of T, Hayes Hunter, for years stage director for Daid Belasco and oth?r famous porducers. He personally produced and directed the elaborate and full-of-action screen classic of the West. Goldwyn, .'which distributes "The Border Legion," is confident that the combination of a gripping Zane Grey story, the brilliant performances of Blanche Bates and Hobart. Bosworth and Mr. Hunter's forcefulness in production, cannot fail to win the highest approbation of every class of picturegoer when "The Border Legion" is presented at the Palace theatre, beginning Sunday. WASHINGTON. Wanda Hawiey again plays a sweet girl of the Golden South in the new Paramount, picture, "Held by the Enemy." which will be shown at the Washington theatre Sunday. Those who saw Miss Hawley in "Secret Service," in which she played the

I same kind of role, will recall how ad

mirably suited she was to the part. In "Held by the Enemy," as in th former, she embodies the true spirit of Southern womanhood which existed prior to and during the Civil war. Both pictures a adaptations from

CECIL B. DeMILLE'S PARAMOUNT SUPER SPECIAL PRODUCTION

MALE and

Female

Founded on J. M. Barrie's famous play, "The Admirable Crichton". Adapted for the screen by Jeanie Macpherson. A picture that seizes the creatures of a misfit "civilization", strips them of their false fronts and handicaps, flings them down in a land where nature rules and says: "Try again, love again."

When a Butler rises to be king and the man of millions becomes a servant, love chooses a different course.

Antoinette Michel Schipa. Mary Garden, famous opera star and recently chosen director of both the business and artistic departments of the Chicago opera company, has been accused by her rivals of being jealous of other feminine stars, their beauty and their clothes. The fact that one of the diva's first acts as head of the opera company was to engage Antoinette Michel Schipa, beautiful wife of the famous Italian tenor, rather refutes this charge. Mme. Schipa is a petite blonde and was noted for her beauty while on the French stage before her marriage last summer. Evidently Mary has no fear of her fame being stolen.

If our lives could begin again. If tomorrow we couH wake, as male and female only, In a world where wealth, laws, conventions, morals, classes meant nothing. Who then would rule, who serve, who love? See the answer in this great picture. A vital story of blue blood and red, with an all-star cast and scenes of alluring beauty.
