Tavie Beige, the Belgian prima
donna, has proven to be a delightful
acquaintance both in New York.
Boston and Chicago, where "Fid-
dlers Three" has aroused a deep in
terest due TO the fact that it has un-
qualified merit.
She is beginning to be Judged

as a singer. That she thoroughly
enjoys her work can be easily seen
from the way into which she en-
ters into il, which IN these days
when some artists seem TO forget
their gratitude towards the public,
is most commendable. Now she is
forgetting her disappointment at not
continuing her career in grand
opera. Through her-as through
only a few others now on our musi-
cal comedy stage-the prestige of
the true prima donna is being re-
vived
This fair Belgian is exceptionally

generation of theatergoers, "The
Auctioneer." with David Warfield

able creation of Simon Levi, the
lovable old Hebrew, will be the not
able attraction at the Oliver the
alter, Monday evening.
The story Of The Auctioneer" is
familiar to most theatergOers. 1t
may be related briefly that Simon
Levi is at first seen in his East Side
auction store and home, building up
the fortune begun with his peddler's
basket. When his adopted daugh-
ter. Helga, is about 10 become the
bride Of Dick Eagan, he moves into
a Lexington Avenue mansion, has a
good time" while il lasts, becomes
suddenly penniless, and then has TO
go back down town and sheerfully
begin life over again with his ped
dler's basket. The story is a most
human one and presents situations
which call for the sudden transit
ton from boad fun TO pathos and
sentiment and tears. which no actor
on the American stage today ca ac-
complish with the same remarkable
fnesse and effect as Mr.. WarfieId
can.
There are several players in Mr.
Warheld's company this season who
appeared with him when The Auc-

are Marie Bates. William Boag.

In story form this picture, which

peared in the Saturday Evening
Post under the title Of open

non-hero, is a Stacker who hires an
other TO take his place in the big
scrap across the waters. Then the
other man dies and the desire to
glorify the name Of the fellow who
did his bit for him is so strong
that he enlists and wins heroic hon
ors. The idea that there is go
much good in the worst OF us" as
we'll as the folly of deception, is
brought out strongly in this pic
tured attraction. Ann Little plays
the girl who was not content to sit
at home and wait.
Norma Talmadge is one of the
screens most versatile stars. Each
new characterization leaves one
wondering at the remarkable scope
and grasp of this talented young
woman in delineating such a varied
number OF types. In her newest
screen offering, which is entitled
The Probation Wife" and which is
Mondays LaSalie feature, she pOr-
trays the role of an inmate of a
notorious dive. who is rescued from
