LOEW'S VAUDEVILLE MENU REPLETE WITH UNUSUAL NUMBERS
Guy Sampsel and Lily Leon- ard in Musical Comedy a Star Act-Kiddie Stars
 in Photoplay

Another unusual, attractive and in' teresting bill will be offered the thou. sands of patrons to Loews Bijou thea Ire for the first half of this week, when, as a headliner, Guy Sampsel and Lily Leonard are billed to delight their au- dtors with a fascinating offering made up of intense moments in all of the latest musical comedy hits. This pair will come to Loew's with record form New York where they starred in several bg productions, and they are rated at first-class musical comedy top-notchers. They are assisted by an expert pianist in their act.
 Jeanne" is a little miss from Bel gium. She has a corner on eccentric stunts. and dances wonderfully well. In comedy she is clever, and her act is bound to amuse all Martyr and Flor ence are up for an act that is excep- ticnal-as the majority of Loew acts are-they having created a juggling pre- sentat ton of a tennis court, using only the racquets and balls to juggle with. They entitle their. skit "On a Tennis Court
 Riggs and Ryan have a hilarious come dy sketch "Disturbing the Peace,' which they greatly augment with thier clever COnCepIlOn or lnelT TOieS lHleItllISllll5 a great deal of original comedy into their lines These people are sure enough clever, and will please their au- dience immensely.
 In the Dorothy Sothern Trio is to be found bit of classy stepping that is unusual, in fact, rarely ever seen. Their dancing is very delightful, and the trio have exceptional musical tal- ents also. They sing and play, vio- linist and pianist of ability being among the number.
 Little Jamie and Katherine Lee, the inimitabe kiddies, star in another great film for Monday, Tuesday and Wednes- day It is American Buds and these two juvenile wonders will make every one laugh-and some of the auditors will cry, of course, for the kiddies are al times as pathetic are they are cute Then they are the very same little ras- calls that they have always been in every film, but cunning and attractive and deliciously fascinating.
 The bill for the last half of the week will be announced in the papers oll Wednesday and Thursday of this week.

WOOLFOLK MUSICAL COMEDY TOPS B|G
 BILL AT THE LYRIC
Posing Horses and Dogs, Ragtime Xylophone Play CT, Singing and Dancing
 Complete Good Bill

Posing horses and dogs, a ragtime xylophone operator, singing comedenne, a musical comedy of real merit, Lyric screen telegrams are among the offer ings at the Lyric theatre the first half of next week, when the management of fers a bill which is perhaps more meri- torious than any they have been ena- bled to show for weeks.
 Boyle Woolfolk's merry -go-round is the headliner on the bill, and the act is one of the most pretentious musical comedies ever attempted in vaudeville. It is large enough to make a circuit alone, and came out on the long end of the financial string. Nine scenes are shown in the play, and it has as many beauties in the chorus, as many classy songs, as many excellent dances, as much humor and as many clever lines as one would expect rom the average road mus ical comedy, and yet it is in vaude vile.
 Ollie DeBrow, a Houston, Tex, boy, known as one of the best blackface artists on the American stage is starred ir the production
 Miss Edith Clifford is billed as a singing comedienne, who is pleasing to the eye and to the ear, and she is all of that and more. She is a brilliant blend, brilliant both as to the shock of hair which is her crowning glory, and brilliant in her work as a comedienne.
 William Egdirettu and his posing horse and dogs has an act that is en- titled to be called "The Act Beautiful" !" It is an exhibition of the training of animals down to fine point, and the exercise of muscular control, which the master has drilled into his animals, proves highly interesting.
