GARRICK ACTS
ARE ALL NEW ONES
DOCkStader Offering a SpIen-
did Bill of Vaudeville
This Week

Every number on the program at the
GarriclS this week is new to local play
goers, and every number made good
at the opening performances yester-
day afternoon and last night Herzog s
magnificent Blue Ribbon stations offer
a feature of special interest. and one
which every person who possesses the
least interest in the horse will enjoy
to the limit. It is one Of the best ami
NAL acts Wilmingtonians have had the
pleasure of seeing in long time.
'rhe Real Widow Brown" scored the
comedy hit of the bill. This is a con-
densed version of a two and a half
hour show. II is the story of a
widower who answered a matrimonial
adv. The trouble he undergoes with
two grown daughters and two would
be sons-in-law conspiring 10 break off
the match furnish as funny a bit Of
comedy as one could care TO see.
Miss Anna Kenwick makes her first
appearance here this week after a
European engagement. She sings a
song or two and dances Just enough
for one to wish she might keep IL up
for awhile longer. J. X Murray and
Clara Lane, late of the Bostonians
have very pretty and entertaining
number in "An Interrupted Honey
moon" and they received a cordial
greeting yesterday.
Miss Margaret Braunstein. a Will
mington girl, who enjoys quite a repu-
tation as singer, made her first ap.
pearance in vaudeville here yesterday

NEW COLOR CHART SHOWS
THE col ORISTfS TRUE

A glimpse at the new color chart,
which reveals the colorists art I'm its
highest perfection, shows TO us the
new neutral tones In a brilliancy and
purity which is most impressive. Diff
ferent manufacturers differ in regard
10 the most fashionable shades. but
there are several which arc evidently
struggling for supremacy. Gray in
cloths is especially strong, a lovely
soft, pinlSish gray which is not as hard
as the blue-gray and richer and more
fun of color than formerly. Blues are
as usual very good. the navy and Hol-
land blue in foulards and the corn
flower blue in shantungs. In the
lavender tones there is the new iris.
which has a suggestion of blue in its
makeup. and the old favorite amethyst,
and the deeper, glorious grape. Arti-
choke and the reseda tints are highly
favored in the grays and the mustard
and leather tones shading from apricot
must not be forgotten. A deep rasp-
berry tone. reddish shade has already
| become popular.

BIG MUSIC ACT
AT OPERA HOUSE
Stewart Collins and Banjo
Girls Please Three Big
Audiences

The Harris Amusement Company'e
big bill of vaudeville, at the Grand
Opera House for ten cents. continues
TO attract immense audiences. Yester-
day the big playhouse was crowded at
all performances.
Stewart Collins and his Banjo Girls
proved one Of the best headliners which
the theatre has yet offered. Mr.. Col
Inns has long been known as one of the
very best banjo players in the world,
and his associates appear every whit
as capable. In the hands Of these per-
formers tho banjo appears capable Of
most anything and a really delightful
offering was the result. There have
been very few acts Of the kind seen
at the theatre and It deserved all Of
the generous and enthusiastic applause
which il received.
Guy Bates and Company won dis
tinction in several ways and they we're
entitled to it. To begin with Mr. Bates
and his two associates are capable and
painstaking comedians who never over
draw or overdo. They deserve the
most distinction. however. for having
taken the worn subject Of a Hen
pecked Husband" for the title OF their
comedy, and produced something which
is entirely on new lines
Ladell and Ward showed that they
possessed voices which are considerably
better than those of the average
comedians. They secured the good
will OF all OF the audiences yesterday
by singing parodies upon number Of
popular songs. These parodies were
witty and clever and ftted the tunes
Of the songs TO perfection
Wing and Rubie in zone FAN After

stunts in acrobatics They scored
heavily with the audience despite the
fact that there has been considerable

got on good terms with her audiences
at the start. She makes pleasing
appearance. has a good voice and sans
a repertoire of songs which are famil.

personality than previous ones in hei
line
There were new pictures which
pleased immensely because they show
ed comedy subjects. The present pro
gram will continue until Thursday
when a complete change win be mad
at the matinee on that day.

Don't forget that linen sheets are very
