day and Tuesday. All sorts of ad-
ventures befall her, but the funniest
and most Dramatic of all happens
when she is invited to party given
by the daughter of the country
Judge. -Vainly she hunts for some
thing with which to cover up her
rags, and finally goes to the party
wearing the same old sweater and
threadbare overalls, with the addi-
ton of a cameo ring found among
lot of odds and ends.
Once at the house, Blanche, the
judges daughter (Leota Lorraine),
gives Fuckers an old dress, expect
ing her to make a laughing-stock
of herself. Poor Fuckers does this
unmistakably. In the midst Of the
hilarity the judge (Alec B. Fran
cis) notices the ring worn by the
wait. 1t is this discovery that starts
the solution of a strange mystery
which brings about a discovery
which takes Blanche from her lofty
perch and completely revolutionizes
Fuckers. "The Pest" is play which
gives Mabel Normand not only
every opportunity to touch both ex
tremes of emotion, but presents her
in a variety of guises.
"The Big Little Person. at the
Brandeis, where it will remain
through Wednesday, gives Mae Muir
ray something new in the way OF a
role. She portrays the character of
a prim and staid little school mis-
tress. Through one of fate's most
freakish moods, she becomes vic
tim of deafness while at work among
her little flock of school kiddies.
She loses the love of her fiancee,
who becomes ashamed of her afflic
ton. Fate turns her lover into a
brute and makes him the instrument
of restoring her hearing.
The wanderings of four sand
witches form an important part of
the story of The Fire Fingers"
Rupert Julian's latest Universal spe-
cial attraction which will be shown
at the Brandeis theater for three
days beginning next Thursday.
They are perhaps the most costly
articles of food ever banded about

History, New York, has provided a
very profitable subject from an edu-
cational standpoint. AS is we'll
known this museum contains the
most complete collection of pre-
historic fossils in the world. Based
on these skeletons Of creatures that
lived when the world was young, an
animated cartoon has been prepared
showing how brontosaurus-Thun-
der Lizard-met its fate.
A few babies, white and colored,
show how emotions are registered
for the camera. Abe Martin has a
good deal of fun to let loose in the

takes this stand because she is the

She finally marries the younger of
her two suitors and finds she has

a crowd of willy blackmailers seek

Of her good angel, a detective.
The Sun theater was filled with
continual laughter yesterday, when
the comedy, BE Little Sport
with Albert Ray and Elinor Fair
was presented here for the first
time. Those who attended the first
showing must have spread the news
rapidly, for the theater was crowded
all day long. The story is side
splitting in its humorous situations,
and Ray and Miss Fair both do very
clever work. Ray as a comedian is
making rapid strides toward the
front rank of screen players, and
Miss Fair is not only beautiful but
has fine dramatic talent Together
they made situation after situation
