new VAUDEVILLE
ACTS COMING ON
Liner TOMORROW

Two good vaudeville acts, together
with two rafting good motion pic
lures, constitute the complete change
in bill which the National theater will
offer tomorrow evening. The acts are
Nolan and Nolan, comedy jugglers,
and Tozart, clever actor artist, who
paints lightning sketches. The pic
lures will be one of the Charlie Chap

of the films, making, The Master
Touch"
Nolan and Nolan, who are due to
arrive in the Sierra tomorrow from
Sydney, have just finished a vaudeville
tour Of Australia. Theirs is a we'll
rounded turn of considerably better
than ordinary standard. Tozart is
new to America. He was a standard
London attraction until the war broke
out, when he went to Australia. He is
said to be not only humorous rapid
fire sketch painter, but an artist Of
real ability.
A feature of TOZarts present tour
is that percentage OF all his earnings
are sent to England in the form of a
direct contribution to Great Britains
war fund. This is in keeping with a
pledge he made before he left Londcn.
Frank Daniels, the Broadway comic
opera star, who has been featuring in
pictures at the National since Satur-
day afternoon, will be seen for the last
time here tonight. His first attempt
at silent acting is so good that those
who have seen the film are locking
