Fannie Ward is charming. both in
physique and face. and a clever &C.

her FIRST appearance until the curtain
Is rung down on the last act. She
takes the clever part OF Gobette. an
actress. and through the complications
of the various scenes she Is mistake en-

SATISFY YOUR
"WANDERLUST"
BY TAKING A TRIP WITH LYMAN
n. HOWE IN HIS TRAVEL
FESTIVAL.
The Last Word In Travel Scenes To
Be Shown at Court Theatre Next
Friday and Saturday.

IL has become fashionable TO talk
OF the wonderful strides" that have
been made in animated photography
but II is noteworthy that Lyman "A.
Howe's Travel Festival which comes
TO the Court theatre for performances
next Friday and Saturday evenings
and Saturday matinee. October 1924.
still remains in a class by itselm fore
than ever. II is the only attraction
before the public that has appeared
semi annually in each OF nearly sou
cities for almost 20 years. In its scope
IL encompasses the world in a brief
two hours. In this respect II Is the
open Sesame" for a million people 10
satisfy their wanderlust and who. for
lack OF time or money. could not do
so otherwise. Though IL is known best
as n regular theatre attraction, never
theless its character Is so broadening.
uplifting and wholesome that the fore
most educators are persistenly seek
ing II for halls of learning and cul-
ture. Here. too. Il opens a new world
TO students-a world in which the
language is universal and which needs
no translation. For this reason Mr..
Howe's engagements at universities
now are looked forward to by thou
sands of students as eagerly as by
theatre patrons. In fact II is rightly
regarded as a universal educator, for
IL. combines instruction with enter
tainment in such a pleasing manner
that the child and the man, even in
grades far apart. derive a fund OF
pleasure and information from II that
cannot be obtained from any other
source.
Delightful Journey.
In his entirely enw program Mr.
Howe promises one of the most de-
lightful picture journeys he has ever
presented. II will take local Howe
travellers" to Venice-the city OF the
sea. The series is unique-because
Venice is unique. All other cities IN
the world resembele each other in
many respects. but Venice alone re-
mains distinctive-a city of romance
where poetry conquers prose. And
II is exactly this poetic beauty OF
Venice that Howe's film conveys ex-
quisitely. OF course. the new pro-
gram includes numerous other note
worthy features such as a descent in
TO the crater of Vesuvius where spec
tators peer down into a vast abyss OF
boiling lava. Then there is a thrill
ing ride on a runaway train This.
too. is a descent. but at an appalling
rate OF speed. down the mountain side
and around curves. the train increas-
ing momentum at every foot until
spectators are 'rns1xed in suspense
as to just how such an eventful trip
will end. The mysterious develop
mento flowers: the grace and beauty
OF natures handiwork during the
growth OF plants: the fascinating for
nations caused by the electrolysis OF
metals. and railroad ride through
Greece, are only a few OF the many
other features to be presented In
addition there viii be those amusinr
animated cartoons which always form
such a pleasant diversion.

Opulent as Is Mrs. Wigs in character
types, II has even been more richly
cast. and the company is remarkable
for its excellence and strength AS a
dramatic force. Mrs. Wigs" is unique
in its defiance of technique in play-
building, and its sheer reliance upon
heart interest pure and simple. IL is
mine OF truest sentiment. The play
opens in Mrs. Wigs cottage with the
wedding OF Miss Hazy to Mr.. Stubbins.
Miss Hay has been "sicked" on TO
matrimony by Mrs. Wigs, who has
aided in the winning of the "promi-
nent citizen OF Bagdad Junction" BY
artistic cooking. which is passed OF
as the brides own. Mr.. Stubbins sees
his life aureoled by delicious pies and
other culinary delicacies. The second
act. which shows the exterior of Mrs.
WIGS cottage. contains many comical
scenes, due to the fall from grace by
Mr.. Stubbins. The third and last act
shows the return of Mr. Wigs to the
bosom of his family. One appreciates
