Observation-Disclosures
ITENRY MILLER, and Ruth
II lhatterton, supported by a dis.
tinguished company, will
appear at the Brandeis soon in Alex
ander Dumas. comedy, "A Marriage
of Convenience" Mr.. Miller brings
with him the original production of
"A Marriage of Convenience" in
every detail, just as it was resented
n Henry Miller's theater in New
York, where the treatment of the
brilliant play of the Louis XIV
period, with its beautiful! scenery
and lavish costumes, won re high
est praise. "A Marriage of Con-
venience' was one of the few really
conspicuous successes of the New
York season and its presentation by
Mr.. Miller stood out as quite the
finest OF the year. Needless to saw,
the company supporting Mr.. Miller
and Miss Chatterton will be Of the
highest, standard. Mr.. Miller will be
seen in his original role of the Comte
\ de Candale and Miss ,Chatterton as
the Comtessc de Candale.
With the company headed by
Jack Boyle and Kitty Bryan, the
stellar attraction at the Orpheum
thus week will be the effective
musical comedy, "The Four Hus-
bands" In vaudeville no offering
OF this general type has ever at
tanned greater success than this one.
Songs, dances and fun are kept 60
ing at a lively pace all through the
attraction. Then, too, the plot IS
extremely effective. An amusing
act in which trifing talk figures,
with fancy fiddling, and a careless
cello, is to be presented by William
Dafnarest and Estelle Collette.
"Oh, You Women" is skit to be
effectively presented by Martha
Hamilton and company, and comes
with the reputation Of being one of
the funniest comedy sketches ever
to tour the Orpheum circuit. Percy
Bronson and Winnie Baldwin COM
bine singing, dancing and light
comedy iii an act which they oddly
style 1919 Songology." Known as
the violinist and the boob, Black
and O'Donnell, man and a girl,
have an amusing skit. Jazz dancing
is a feature OF their comedy. With
the entire stage hung in white
drapery, and the posers appearing
in white, the Flemings appear as
alabaster creations. The two young
men also introduce a routine of
gymnastics. A futurist juggling
novelty is to be contributed by
Turner and Grace. News events Of
the world will be pictured by Kino-
grams, and the picture subjects of
the Orpheum Travel Weekly are
to be coast towns of Venezuela.
"The End of the Road" the mo
ton picture dealing with venerea!
disease, will be shown in Omaha for
a limited engagement beginning |
Sunday afternoon. This 'photodran:a !
exposes the dangers of venereal /
disease in vivid manner, yet at the
same time .weaves this unpleasant
subject into story combining the
two into a wonderful realistic pic
ture of life and the everyday perils
which. surround us. The story was
written by Dr., Katherine Bement
Davis, former commissioner of cor
rcctions for New York City, and
Edward H. Griffith. formerly lieu
tenant in .the United States army,
and one time director for Thomas

beautiful women in film, has the
leading woman role. G~s. ~

Brandeis for four days starting May
rs. Ia IT, ,5I 3.s~.
"Going Up" will appear at the
Brandeis theater for four nights
early in June. Going Up" tells
most amusing tale of an aviator
who claims to have flown but never
has. Complications result which
prove fascinating for the audience.
There are many pronounced musical
hits of the sort which are bound to
linger in ones memory.
Herbert Lloyd comes to the En-
press theater with his company as
the stellar attraction, for four days
starting today. Following in rapid
succession are buriesque limitations
Of vaudeville acts that bring screams
OF laughter. The act employs two
exceptionally good-looking girls
who are lavishly costumed. Sammic
Styne and Dick Arnold introduce
smart line of patter, character im-
presentations and harmony singins:
The Four Casters give wonderful
exhibition of gymnastics, ably pre-
