offerings that bring pile of Joy in

deep and abiding interest to followers
Of the legitimate drama is one to the
effect that the distinguished English

Edward Flanagan and Nicely Edwards
are coming back again this week with
new bundle Of laughs In their latest
offering called ''Off and On Sc
quel to their former big success, son
and Off" This shows the routine of
song and dance team. Every effort
has been made to make the skit realis-
tic, and as the action includes a re-
hearsal and performance, the opportu-
nifty to offer songs and dances is aptly
presented. Both comedians do this
greatly to their credit.
More laughs, loud and long, will be
encountered in the joyous fifteen min
utes that Redford and Winchester are
cutting didoes as eccentric iugglers.
They are returning here after a sue
cessful tour around the world of some
II ,OCO miles, during which they made
a big hit in every country from Ger
many to the Fiji islands.
Charlotte Ravenscroft, pretty girl
with a violin and a voice, will be q
pleasing feature on the new bill. Miss
Ravenscroft knows how to use all three
of these charms to their fullest value.
She furnishes musical offering out Of
the ordinary, and invariably scores
with her audiences.
Winslow and Duffy, an elongated in
dividual made up as stage French
man and a charming, vivacious miss are
scheduled to offer a deft bit of roller
skating Filtration Both are wonderful
skaters and apparently do the impossi-
BILE on wheels. The grotesque attitudes
assumed by the man are responsible for
the hilarity.
Two clever young Englishmcn who
entertain splendidly in very smart
performance Of dancing. piano plaving
and singing are Handlers and Miiliss
They alternate between steps and the
piano, but there is no stop for RELAYS
the act is brought to an effective close
with an acrobatic dance
Then there will be the Orpheum ex-
elusive motion pictures, showing mo-
ton views Of the world = news, and the
customary concert prior to the matinee
and evening performance on the part
of the Orpheum symphony orchestra
under the direction Of Ed j. Fitzpat
