GOOD BILLS SHOWN
AT MOVIE HOUSES
But Only Two New Films Make
Their Way Downtown Out of
the Large Number Produced

The fact that two new films are shown
this week in the moving picture houses II
not abnormal. That is the usual number
and only by chance does a third by accident
a fourth, creep in It is understood that
presently o theater will begin showing
first run Fox productions But regularly
new Triangle and a new Paramount make
up the bill.
An easy going summer bin Is on at the
Stanley. Neither the feature nor the
comedy comes up to the standard OF last
week. The travelogue and the sport number
are both excellent, particularly the former
which deals beautifully with the southern
Tyrol The feature ls Little Lady Eileen"
with Marguerite Clark, Still pquant and
lovely but a bit older than when we saw
her last. Even she cannot make slow
scenario any too interesting. The story
of like brothers, one Of whom must marry
Lady Eileen, of substtutions and most
outrageous accident at the end, is all pretty
tame. There are several fine locations, but
nothing to equal Mr.. Holmes real locations
in the Tyrolese Alps. The comedy Is called
Fare Lady" but so quickly was the name
flashed that those responsible escaped
notice Which Is, on the whole, better for
medium. And no comedy should be
medium.
At the Arcadia the feature Is ''Hell-to-
Pay Austin" Triangle, with Bessie Love,
always charming, and Wilfred Lucas. al
ways dependable. But neither of these Is
at their best In this production Appar-
emily the idea Is that since they are good
screen actors they can do anything. but
the idea is a mistake. The plot deals with
easterner who in a shady struggle,
hurts man and thinks he has killed him.
He goes West, becomes the dour dominating
figure Of a saw-mlll camp, bullies and
beats his men into submission. An orphan
comes into his life and goes out of II
stangely into the life he has left behind.
Then there is big fight and a great VIC
tory The best thing in the picture is the
extraordinary taking. the fine composition
of certain scenes and some good detail

episode and there is good surrounding

how long II will take the public to realize

but very appealing person. There are
good details to fill in beside these two fea-
lures.

LOTS OF LAUGHS IN
KETTH'S LIVELY SHOW
Bert Kalmar and Jessie Brown
Are the Features in a Fan
tasy of Childhood

There is plenty to choose from at Keith's
this week
II you like something entirely new and
novel, then you would choose Bert Kalmar
and Jessie Brown, in their sketch OF "Nur-
seryland." as your favortes They step
from the pages Of a big fairy book and,
clad in the costumes OF Fatryland, sing
and dance with good result
Old Mother Hubbard, Simple Simon, Lit
tie Boy Blue, Mary's Little Lamb were
among other things offered.
Miss Brown danced with the abandon we
would expect OF such falrylike persons, and
Mr.. Kalmar was equally agile In his ditii-
cult roles. The act generally is conducive
to happiness
when It comes down TO real wit and
humor, or whatever you wish to call II,
Aveling and Lloyd were easily first choice.
Unlike the usual talking act, they do not
Sing when they enter or exit. But for 15
minutes they dispense gems OF wit In the
way of general conversation.
The interesting gossip was the work OF
Aaron Hoffman, one of the few vaudeville
authors, who defes the beaten path and
blazes his own trail.
An Oriental dancing romance. with all
the usual weird music, draperies, etc, was
presented by Miss Dong Tong Cue and
Harry Haw. In addition to dancing real
American creations, they sang numerous
songs in English, indicating that they had
been in this country some time. They we're
well received
Liberal applause rewarded the Three
Steindel Brothers, who offered classical and
popular musical selections.
Willie Solar, who has had the honor of
entertaining royalty. sang in many Lam
guages and faces that is he made n differ
ent face for every song BY way of good
measure he threw in a number of imita-
tions on the side He also showed some
rather startling ideas in dancing Summing
1t all up he was the applause winner of the
show.
Douglass J. Wood and company appeared
in THE Shoplifter." The cast was ex-
Cellent.
Moss and Frey two negro comedians,
took the place of the Crisps. who failed to
appear They have picked out the things
which an audience is sure to applaud and
lay much stress on harmony singing cll-
MAKES Their talk is good and they won
many laughs But II their material was
little more consistent IL would help matters.
Even as 1t is the audience liked II.
The Florenzi Duo opened the show. News
from many parts of the world was shown
in the pictures. j. G.. c.

CARS FORCES PUSH AHEAD
IN INVASION OF HUNGARY;
CHECKED ALONG STOKHOD
LONDON, Aug. q


The Russians continued their advances
yesterday on the Stokhod and Carpathian
fronts. They have met with determined op-
position in The former region, however, and
have been checked in their forward drive
except at few points.
The forces of LetchItsky which broke
through the Jablonltza Pass two days ago
are still pushing forward into Hungary,
meeting with little effective resistance Hav-
ing seized the heights dominating Koros-
mezo. they are slowly pressing nearer the
town along the railroad to Maramaros
Sziget.
South Of Kuty tho Russians have cap
tured Jnblonitza and Fereskul, on the
Cheremost River. which at this point forms
the boundary between Galca and Buko-
wilma. and are moving on the heights to the
westward. Thus the Austrians are being
swept back against the mountains with
Rodna Pass their only line OF retreat Once
they have withdrawn into this gateway
virtually the whole OF southeastern Galcia
will be cleared of Teuton forces, and the
Russians will be able to concentrate their
efforts on a northwest drive toward Lem
berg on the flank of the enemy army guard
ing Halicz and the Dniester line.
In southwestern Bukowina the Austrians
have been successful'tn counter-attacks and
have seized important heights near Moldava
and Kirlbaba.
The feature OF the Russian campaign,
which broke out like q tempest on the
southwestern front over two months and
a half ago is the almost continuous nature
OF the lighting. With the exception OF brief
interludes for consolidating positions or
changing the direction of attack. 1t has been
like one great sustained battle.
II is impossible at the present to say
whether the Russian attack upon Kovel
from the Stokhod region continues with
its original energy, but the belief seems
10 prevail here that the discovery Of Sc
rIes of strong German Notifications pro-
tecting Kovel from the east led the Russian
stan TO base its hopes on taking the city
by strong flank attacks, which are now
