 TRIPS TO WALES

London, January 25.-When the world touring Tanks who have spent part of their time in Wales get home they'll carry back to the U. s. A. a fine impress sion of Wales and the hospitality of the Welsh people.
 Never had a better time in my life,' says the Yankee sailor after he has been invited into Welsh home. The Welsh are charming in their homes. Almost without exception every member of the family can sing or play a musical in strument. But while music is enobling to the soul. there's surer way to get the full -fledged appreciation Of the Tank and that's through the stomach.
 And my, how those Welsh people can cook; Then, too, things were a bit more plentiful there than in England, so be- tween good music, cordial people and plenty of good things to eat the boys are going home with their official O. K, on Wales and all that's Welsh.

gone before 1t because the crowd and the place of its appearance are purely incidental to the story.
 The presence of the principal char acter of the play in that particular place at that particular time gives a reason for one of pivotal incidents of the plot;-but the scene itself and the other people who appear in it are re- quired merely to furnish back ground; but~they are so vitally neces- sary that this fourth act of Every woman" has set new standard in the matter of the production of big scenes of this peculiar character. The set ting in itself is extraordinary. The extreme left side of the stage is occu- pied by section of church. At the extreme right is a typical Broadway restaurant, through the windows of which may be seen the lights and be heard the sounds which are an integral part of the atmosphere of New Years Eve celebration in New York. Along the streets upon which these buildings front, there is passing contin- ually the holiday making crowd. In it are to be seen brokers, politicians, stu dents, policemen and types of every other division of New York's great population. In fact, the whole staging of the piece is both Spectacular and sumptuous and its acting beyond re- proach.
 The cast to be seen here has been carefully selected by UT. Savage and includes in the title role Paula Shay, one of the most beautiful women of the American stage. Others in the cast are: Percy Parsons, Natalia Lynn, Norman Lane, Margaret Yeats, Frank Kilday, Fred J. Mccarthy, J. K. Hutch inson, Fred Hampton, Margaret Johnson and Winifred Baldwin

4EVERYWOMAN,' B|G SAVAGE SPECTACLE, OPENS 0N TUESDAY Famous Play by Walter Browne at the Jefferson
 Two Nights and a
 Matinee

Seats are on sale Tor the engage ment at the Jefferson Tuesday and Wednesday nights and Wednesday mat inee of Henry w. Savages musical spectacle, "Everywoman," which is un- doubtedly the largest travelling organi- zation of the theatrical and musical world. It is a combination of drama, opera musical comedy and spectacle and require all told 100 people. In ad- dftion to this large company of musical and dramatic people there is a sym phony orchestra of superb quality with the organization to render the im- pressive score which was composed by George Whitefield Chadwick, dean of the New England Conservatory of Mu- sic. "Everywoman" was produced in London at the historic Drury Lane theatre and made an astonishing suc- cess. The English found in it, as the Americans have done, a. high moral lesson pleasing alike to all classes and furnishing at the same time amuse- ment. Many people seldom found in the theatre have gone there to see "Everywoman" and have found in it unusual inspiration.
 Perhaps the scene which leaves the most enduring memory in the minds of all spectators who have witnessed this remarkable play, with it's vivid series of impressive stage pictures is the wonderfully realistic reproduction of Broadway. New York, at the ap- proach of midnight upon New Years Eve. This scene recalls the best achievement in modern stage craft and it is not too much to say that no scene so full of clever detail and reality has been put before local audience This ensemble scene in "Everywoman'' diff fers from any of those which have

After three years service he died of pneumonia In the trenches of France and was buried at Goundecourt with military honors. His home town, San Benito, has been asked to place a god star in its service flag.

 "No braver spirit ever served in the United States army. He has no rela- tives and most of his old company have been killed or wounded. In late November when I saw them there were only three men left who were in the company at San Benito."
 Salaman, homeless lad of 12 years was adopted at San Benito by the Twenty sixth. then patrolling the Mex ican border. Adventure awaited just over the threshold, and he met ths test with a courage that brought instant distinction.

In an instant firing became general and a rain of bullets clattered against the car. which con- tinued plunging forward, with Rob ertson and the lad returning the fire.

L0ew's Vaudeville Bill Ex- ceptional for Week-Prim- roses Minstrels Head-
 liner Last Half

The big headline attraction at the Bi- jou theatre the first half of this week is Cara Fora, India's newest exponent of most beautiful and graceful dancers ever seen in Birmingham, and will present al unusual spectacular novelty, a combina- tion of glowing color and light effects. Most of Mile. Noras dancing is done with her arms, and with a real abandon as to legs, and with the grace and beau ty which make the offering stand out. The wonderful scenic and lighting et- fleets are by Loie Fuller, the creator, and include the spirit of the storm, the nynph of the waves and goddess of the flames. Mile. Fora is tall, supple ana graceful, and the wavy effects attend ing her use of cloudike scarfs are ad . mirably brought to view by the wonder ful lights.
 "Bullowa's Birthday is a new comedy paylet of home life by John Stokes, the famous writer and actor, with an excep- tional cast headed by Fred Wallace The sketch is based upon the happenings re- sultant of an inheritance, that had been given them by mistake. Thomas Potter Dunne is one of vaudeville's favorite monolog singer-actors, whose songs are short, his stories and tales to the point and his characterizations lifeike. Allen and Averett have a clever fund of new songs and stories, and Cortese and Mur- ray are funny musical laughmakers and entertainers.
 Tom Mix appears in "Hell-Roarin' Re- form," western thriller, on the screen.
 Every once in a while there is pre- sented in vaudeville something little different, new and refreshing, away from the beaten path, and such is the headline attraction at the Bijou theatre the last half of the week, Primrose's minstrels. This is modern organization put on by the veteran dancer himself, and pre- senteo by him, with Mrs. Primrose as an end man, who will transport the patrons of the Bijou theatre to minstreldom during the 20 minutes of their exceptional production. George Primrose, who foi many years was prime favorte of min strels, finds that Father Time is slowly but surely creeping up on him, although he danced up to last season, at that time he had passed his 74th birthday, and he has arranged this, that keeps up the credit of minstrelsy. The act is replete with good, wholesome fun, catchy songs and graceful dances, and a wonderful display of gowns by Mrs. Primrose.
 Another big attraction on the bill will be the cheery Irish comedienne, Marie titzgih bons in snappy and breezy songs and stories.

 and ran for one whole season in New
 York, playing to capacity business.
 The story of the play deals with a wayward girl, who after being led astray, goes to a small village to redeem her self. The village gossips get busy, and the play develops unusual strength, when for happiness. It is play with beau tiful moral. and teaches the gospel of
 "Thou shall not gossip" in a manner never portrayed upon a stage before. The third act of this play develops some of the best comedy seen in Bir- mingham this season. It shows school room scene, with Sam Park as the tough pupil, and those who have enjoyed the comedy that this popular member of the Maddocks-Park players has introduced into the plays that have been presented here this season, will appreciate what this means.
 The past week the New Majestic has played to capacity houses, and great l numbers of people have been unable to get seats, and in view of this, the man. agement requests all who can, to make their reservations early. Phone orders receive the same attention as box office ] reservations.
