SHOW OF SHOWS AT
 LYCEUM THEATER

Every once in a great while, there by surprise. It's fea atures, it's as- tonishing novelties and it's real en- tertaining value puts it at the head of the list of the Real Shows' Just such an performance as this is the Singer Midget Co.,, who are play ing a successful weeks engagement at the Russwin Lyceum. The pro- gram made up of European novelties is in every sense of the word a real show.
 The show starts with Zertho's 40 dogs of all nations and this for an opening number is one of the best ever seen on any local stage. Zer- tho's dogs are not of the old stereo- typed performers, who are put through their each and every trick in diVidually. His act starts, fresh, lively and at once arouses real inter est which never lags until the forty canines have finished their almost hu- man 'stunts."
 Next comes the Two Specks, a lively team whose act is comprised of songs, chatter and dances all of which are gone through in neat pleasing manner.
 Classical dances are next interpret ed by three comedy and shapely maid ems who call themselves '"The Ro- manos.' They too are superior in their line to anything seen here.
 George Schindler comes next and his musical renditions are all that could be desired.
 '"The man with a thousand faces" namely Constantine Bernardo, the worlds greatest prOtean artist next played several sketches all alone, inn personating one hundred and two characters in 30 minutes, a feat which probably stands forth as a record.
 Then came "Fields & Halliday" in The Raw Recruit a comedy sketch which kept the audiences roarin g with laughter during it's entire DOT trayal
 At the close of the big program there was presented what seemed like the eighth wonder of the world, ''The Singers Midgets," thirty of the tini- est, prettiest and most marvellous midgets that have ever graced any stage. Their number is undescrib- able, words seem much too inade- quate in telling of this wonderful

The Wolf Woman" is a new type of hank of hair" lady. She is modern siren and not at all like the traditional rag and bone,' the classic tells about. She regards man as her rightful prey, and unfor- tunately man is not at all adverse to being regarded as such. In this feature Miss Glaum wears ten sensa
 tional gowns worth thousands and jewels of rare value and brilliancy. The scenes are replete with tapestries and art treasures, creating an Oriental atm osphere On mystery and richness. On these two days the Paramount will present "The Daughter of Mac Gregor, featuring Valentine Grant. The fighting blood of the MacGregors was not excluded from the veins Of the daughter of the house. When the Old Man Mac Gregor took unto him. self another wife and also decreed that his daughters sweetheart should no longer come to visit her, there is small WOlluS1 IlldI lllC SlIl IGDCl1Su, especially when her new mother, be- gan to show signs of becoming dicta- torial even before the marriage This is the situation that cOnfrOnts a grit ty Scotch lassie at the opening of this Famous Player production.

Wrothe carnival, is still packing tho house at nearly every performance and the management has every req son to believe that today and tomor- row will continue the record. Slid ing' Billy Watson, with his funny lit tie chin whisker, his peculiar slide that has been initiated but never equalled, and Ed" Lee Wrothe, his co-star, are proving wonderful att traction. The comedy work is event Iy divided, the first part being Wat sons innings and the last half of the show being devoted mainly to Wrotho appearance. Wrothe has a line of humor that is decidedly out of the or dinary, and neither comedian is re- sorting to the crude or vulgar to gain a laugh. The chorus is high-clasS and pretty and the soubret, prima donna and straight man, as we'll as the other supporters in the cast, arc giving entire satisfaction. Tomorrow will be another big Saturday at the Grand.

That Fine Humanity

There are certain qualities in men and women, manifestation of which sends queer fine thrills through one.
 One is physical courage; another is the moral courage of ones convic- tions; and another (and to me per haps the greatest of alb is that splendid squareness that honors su- periority even in a rival
 When two great tennis players shake hands after the tournament that has left one of them defeated, and the one who has lost looks the other in the eye, and says 'The best man won," I can feel a thrill so poig nant that it Is actually physical.
 One can even get this thrill by reading of great men who have held this high humility.
