ragtime songs and dances, divided headline

sale Of Liberty Bonds by the vaudeville
stars in a booth in the foyer OF the theatre.

"Svncopated Studio" Miss Seeley is sup
ported by Messrs Fields, Salisbury, Davis,
Lopez and Thorpe with the aid of her
Jazz band quintet she fairly radates the
spirit Of the ragtme dance. Her costumes
are stunning creations in themselves.
Lucille Cavanagh repeats her hit OF last
week with her pleasing blend of beauty,
personality and agility Her act has been
changed in n number Of places. Music Of
quite different kind Is given by Olga
Boris n Russian pianste a newcomer in
vaudeville who Is reputed TO have been
court musician IN the palace of Car Nicho-
las. The unique Offering of Lester premier
ventrloquist, deserves the highest praise,
and Judged by tho volume of applause he
received last night, his entertainment was
n flrst-class success.
In Engaged, Married, Divorced" with
Tom Kennedy and Ethel Burt there is a
sparkling and unusual bit Of entertain
ment lt Is n travcsty on marriage which
all who are married or all who are not
should see Lester Crawford, n clever
comedian and Helen Rrodericli furnish
abundant comedy in their bright Offering
"A Little Of This and a Little of That"
Charles and Adelaide Wilkens are seen
here for the first time in a droll bit of
comedy work. The Cycling Brunettes-not
females. as the title suggests-did some
thrilers, but the real thrillers on the pro-
gram were the stunts Of the Three Jahns

evitably recalled. Prominent also in the
procession are "The Red Widow" THE
Pretty Little Widow" "The Grass Widow
and The Fascinating Widow" The last
named is visible at the Walnut street
Theatre She is a lively acquaintance first
made by Phihdelphlans few seasons ago
at the Forrest. when her erratic character
was depicted by Julian Eltinge.
The present exponent of her mystfylng
ways is Thomas Martele a young comedian
VINO assumes the feminine role Win con-
vlction that rather startes tho eye. At
tired in smart feminine toggery he presents
a pretty picture. Mr. Martele is less
largely framed than his predecessor, Mr.
Etinge. He dances gracefully and apes
girlish mannerlsms with considerable tidel-
ity.
As in the standard old farce Of "Chareys
Aunt" the female disguise is assumed to
further the dramatic possibilities OF an
amusing situation. This widow of the
Hauerbach musical play is actually Hal
Blake a student involved in a college scrape,
from which he finally eXtricates himself
after pretending to represent member of
the fair sex In the course of the plots

scene and skirts in another. Brandon

The star is well supported by a compe-
tent company that includes rotund and
rubcund Eddie Garvie, Julia Clifford (whO
happens to have been the first wife Of the
Just deceased Bob Fitzsimmons), William
Phelps, George CASTOR, an expert genre
actor, formerly seen here in The Witching
Hour; Florence Guise and Mabelle Cedars

Percy Weinerich has written some tune
full song numbers for the offering. THE

Clayton. Story by Willard Mack. Directed
by Travers Yale and photographed by Max
Schneider. World.

Ethel Clayton is one of the best actresses

story she can always be depended upon for
an interesting production. In his one the
story is not unlike many that have ap-
peared upon the screen, However, it gives
Miss Clayton one of the very best roles she
has ever had She appears az the New
York society wife of wealthy western
mine owner who has married him for his
money When she telsl her husband this
he decides to make her leave him and he
determines that the best way to do this is
by making 1t appear that he has lost all his
money But when his scheme is SUCCESSFUL
II works a most remarkable change in his
wife--a change so very astonishing that the
husband cannot believe it. Besides Crau-
ford Kent, who Is to appear in a forthcom-
ing Goldwyn release, there are Isabelle
Berwin, Eugene Woodward, Frank de Ver-
non and Curtis Cooksey.
