Tonight at the Orpheum, the head
line picture will be Sherlock Holmes,
Jr, Rex picture which will prove a
scream. Miss Irene Goldberg, late
with the famous Creatore band, will
sing that big song Sonora and the
program will be one of the best of the
season. A synopsis of the Sherlock
Holmes comedy follows:
Little Sherlock Holmes, Jr., reads
of the doughty doings Of his hero-god,
and at once determines to become a
detective himself. Providence favors
him by at once giving him mystery
to solve. His father has noticed that
in some weird, unaccountabe fashion
the whiskey in the decanter is ever
vanishing, and father swear he
doesn't drink it as fast as all that. So
Sherlock Holmes, Jr., assigns him
self the task Of discovering who lamp
ers with his fathers soothing bever-
age. Concealed behind a table, he
sees Bridget, tn cook, come in and at
once proceed to get on the outside OF
a mans size pull on the flask. At
once the embryo detective makes his
report to his father with the astound-
er decides to use Dr. Browns Sure
Cure for the Liquor Habit on the
cook, and obtains a bottle of the fluid.
This he puts in the room near the
whiskey, intending to pour some in the
bottle little later. Sherlock Holmes,
Jr., discovers the bottle, and follows
the 'Do 1t Now maxim. There are
friends visiting the house at the
time, who are sitting on the lawn
with his parents, awaiting tea which
the maid is to bring them Sherlock

Bridget's beau, the policeman, for
whose particular benefit Bridget es
says to go inside and procure glass
of "butter-milk." After imbibing, the
policeman forgets all about everything
except that he is awfully drowsy and
the next thing he, too, is asleep. Il

Bridget not have forgotten herself
