ADJUSTMENTS
Empress


Without fear of contradiction it
may be safely stated that when 1t
comes to all around quality, the
Empress vaudeville show this week
easily sucpasses anything yet seen
in this line Happy indeed is the
booking agent and manager who,
when booking show. can get one
that. is IS per cent. good, but when
out of four acts all are first-class
and all little better than the av-
erage, there are reasons for glee.
Then there is another important
thing, cleanliness. This show this
week is all that anyone could ask;
fact is, when it comes to purity, Doc
Wiley himself would sanction it, and
that's going some. Each act is Il
Knockout. And all possess an indi
viduality that would assure them a
place on any bill. The motion, pic
lures are equally up to standard as
usual. Three reels are shown, includ
ing a two-reel feature, The Ghetto,
an extraordinarily good drama by the
Vitagraph company.
