MURRAY VAUDEVILLE Quality singing usually gets first pljce on Murray vaudeville bills. The last half of this week, Reinhart, Murphy and Gibner, three jolly big fellows, wins the laurels. "Kismet" is their best number. Tim Reynolds entertains alone. He has a wealth of humorous stories along with his sunny disposition. Probably the' best piece of his offering is the part devoted to dissatisfaction, in married life. With a realism that can not be denied, and domestic arguments which from the uproar one guesses are true to life, Jimmy depicts the modern brand of husband and wife "spat" Two pretty girls, the Oortez sisters, present a unique act. Songs and dances compose their program. They dose with a Chines song, which finds a response from the audience. v Comedy, more of the slap-stick variety, is to be found with the appearance of Kahne and Boone. Gladys Walton in "Rich Girl, Poor Girl," is the film featcre. Marvin. MURRETTE Never before has Douglas Fairbanks waxed so enthusiastic over the success and admiration of a picture than he has over "The Mark of Zorro," his fourth United Artists production which is the feature attraction at the Murrette Theatre. The story is an adaptation of Johnston McCully's novel, "The Curse of Capistrano," which appeared in the "All Story Weekly" magazine. Those critics who have viewed "The Mark of Zorro" have proclaimed that Fairbanks has excellend any of his previous performances. This is due to some extent to the ingenious story and the opportunities afforded "Doug" to make the greatest use of his athletic ability.

will present his delightfully interest ing story of the Hawaiian Islands, "The Bird of Paradise," at the Murray, Friday, April 8. Although it borders on the tragic at times, Mr. Tully has placed many quaint bits of humor, native and American in his play. Florence Rockwell, who has played the title role for the past two years, will again portray the character of the unfortunate Kanakar princess. One of the notable features of the production is the five genuine Hawaiian singers and ukelele playerB, whose weird, plaintiff muisc and sweet sing ing lend an added charm to this ab sorbing story- The last act showing I the eruption of Mount Kilauea, and i the tragic death of Luana, is the most tnruung. enect attempted on any stage.

CLEVELAND CONCLAVE MAY REVIVE TRADE (By Associated Press) CLEVELAND, O., April 8. Stimula tion of trade with other countries is expected to be a direct result of the eighth annuai foreign trade convention to be held here May 4-7. "Probably no meeting scheduled today will have greater bearing on the country's immediate future prosperity than the coming convention," said H. F. Seymour, vice president of the Columbia Hardware company, chairman of the foreign trade committee of the chamber of commerce, and general chairman of the local committee on arrangements for the convention. "Upwards of 400 requests for hotel reservations already have been received, indicating the widespread interest nationally in the convention," Seymour said. "Foreign trade undoubtedly will be given greater impetus as a result of the convention. "Our national chairman, James A.
