TIE EXQUISITE THIEF AT TIE LAMARA TODAY

Priscilla Dean, who comes to the La built up a most enviable reputation for the presentation of the most distinctive characterizatons of any actress in pie lures. Her Wildcat of Paris" was re- viewed as the great melodrama of the year. This reputation she has more than maintained in The Exquisite Thief which is the vehicle bringing her to the city for the engagement.
 As it's title would indicate, this is crook story, but is such different "crook play'' that it stands alone the same as all her other string of suc- cesses.
 The exquisite thief" is a beautiful woman Blue Jean Billie" as she is known to the police, but it is her repu- tation only that is known, for this clever girl has successfully eluded the strong arm of the law for years, dar- ingly accomplishing the most bold rob- berries, with the police unable to catch her in the dragnet. At the time of the opening of this story, Blue Jean Bill lie" is elated over the prospects of what she hopes will be the biggest deal she has put across. Muriel Vanderflip, the only daughter of the wealthiest family in the city is to be married to Algernon P. Smythe, a British nobleman, and the engagement dinner promises to bring together all the wealth of the town. ''Blue Jean Billie" knows the best de- tectives of the city are at the Wander flip mansion, prepared to summarily deal with any crook invading the place But "Blue Jean" has been up against that before, and gaining entrance to the affair, she calmly calls Hands Up!" adding force to command in the shape of Colt automatic. Jewels pour into her hands, and she makes her es- cape, fleeing in her high powered auto. But Smythe, stunned by what he had seen, and charmed by the iron nerve of this slip of a girl, follows, and Blue Jean" finds herself pursued by as

TE4EATERS PRESENT ATTRACTIVE PROGRAMS
HARRY LAUDER |S
 COMING TO PHOENIX

Harry Lauder, the Scotcn comedian, full of pep and bubbling over with that inimitable something that makes limitations of his work so futile has returned from a memorable tour of Australia and will appear at the Elks theater in. Phoenix Tuesday, Novem- Der 4.
 Sir Harry, as he may now be called, having been knighted during his so- journ in Australia, is more than an entertainer. He is an international character and as an after dinner speaker he did much to cement the felling of brotherhood existing be- aween the English speaking nations during the world war and since. In the last months of that great struggle he went up and down the line in France and Belgium, tntertaining and cheering the soldiers, and it was because of this "service for the empire" that he received the accolade of knight at the hands of King George.
 For his Australian tour Lauder pre- pared a number of new and character istic songs, and many of these will be heard during his one-day engagement in Phoenix. Among them are: we All Go Home the Same Way" T Think I'll Get Wed in the Summer time" When was Twenty One" This last is said to rival in popularity the famous She Is My Daisy"
