Vaudeville at Colonial.

Just how the ancient Greeks captured
the Trojan city liz shown in pictures at
the Colonial. this week. Schoolboys
and girls. too, know all about the
wooden horse and the fall Of Troy. Those
who have forgotten about It or never
heard of it should see Just how the
crafty Greeks avenged the carrying off
OF the fair Helen.
1t cost $4,000, so it is said, to pre-
pare these pictures. and 1000 soldiers
are seen In the fight and the sack Of
Troy. So it Is quite gorgeous affair.
The pictures are not the only attrac-
ton at this theatre. for there Is the
usual excellent vaudeville bill. Miss
Rae Eleanor Ball is a violinist worth
hearing. Leon and his company per-
form rnarvels in magic and johnnie
Clinton and Bobbie Nolan contribute
humorous black face act
And there is no doubt about the ex-
cellence of the moving picture, THE
Fall Of Tro"" AS stated above II Is a
