NAUGHTY BUT NICE"
AT THE ALCAZAR

up in Mabers Room is the naughtiest
but cleverest comedy 1 have seen on the
stage this year, and the comedy that
lovely little Viola Dana is starring in at
the Alcazar theater this week compares
very favorably with up in Mabers
Room" 1t is a scream from start to
finish. Naughty. but oh so funny! One
of the kind that you know better than
to laugh at, but just can't help it! Miss
Dana plays it with such an innocent air
that you can forgive the naughtiness of
the captions and the situations And the
lad who played with her is simply too
much like an Arrow collar advertisement
to be really bad.
The scenery is perfectly gorgeous. A
millionaire out in California donated his
summer residence for the making OF
this picture. And it was some setting
for an elaborate picture. Even the
scene of the "Tuprble Inn are superb
The story is fun and frolic all the way
through. A girl and boy love each other

young and the boys father will not let

FAMOUS AREN|C
STAR WITH CIRCUS
Triple Somersault by Aerial
list With Ringing Bros.
Combined Shows

1t is popular belief that the circus
performer. by reason of the fact that
he is much Travelled, is in small need
of diversion. AS a matter of fact the
stars of the arena are largely given to
seeking outside amusement, but its
character is nearly always selected
with an eye to making it serve in con-
nection with the performers particular
line of endeavor.
Ernest Clark, one of the worlds most
famous arenic stars, practices this
theory. Mr. Clark, who is coming to
this city next Wednesday with the
great Ringing Brothers and Barnum
& Bailey combined shows is the only
aerialist who has ever achieved what
in the parlance of the white tops is
called the triple, twisting somersault'
in midair. His remarkable reverse
fights through space from swinging
bar to the hands of his brother Charles
have never been equaled in circusdom.
1.-THE success of an aerialist largely
depends upon two things" says Mr..
Clark. HE must be utterly undisturbed
by height and have sureness of eye
and limb"
Mr. Clark has developed these facul-
ties to a marked degree. lie attribu-
ties his development to trap-shooting
and mountain climbing. AS a marks
man he has won several medals and is
champion of the several clay pigeon
clubs with the circus.

LOVE HONOR AND ?"
AT THE COLONIAL

Movie fans have their last opportun-
ity today to see that striking drama of
modern life, Love, Honor and e.
which is being shown at the Colonial
theatre. The crowds who thronged the
Colonial yesterday were delighted with
this absorbing study of married life.
How many women consider the word
obey" in the wedding ceremony? This
is the question brought to mind when
one sees Love, Honor and (?)." 1t is
the story of a woman who didn't think
it amounted to much, and what hap
pens to her and her husband makes a
thrilling drama.
Stewart Holmes. who plays the lead
in the picture, is cast as an aviator
who returns from the war to find that
his wife has sought diversion while he
was away with fast gambling society
set. He thinks that her pleasure at
his return will cause her to give up
her acquaintance and return to the
life she knew before he went away.
But she goes on as before, as he tries
to exercise his authority She rebels,
and it is then that he shows his in :
telligence. He adopts original and
forceful methods to bring her to her
senses, and in the end he is success
full.
In addition to the feature, a short
comedy, TOO Many Wives" is also be-
ing shown today.
D. w. Griffiths The Greatest Thing
in Life" comes tomorrow.

INDUSTRIAL SCHOOL
BOYS ENJOY PICTURE
AS Guests of The Age-Her-
aid Boys Have Big Time
at the TrianOn

weather proved no barrier to the big
crowds that thronged the Trianon thea
ire yesterday and the boys of the Boys
Industrial school had the time of their
lives.
These boys were guests of The Age
Herald yesterday afternoon and every
one of them voted The Age-Herald
their heartfelt thanks for the treat and
declared the Trianon theatre offering
a great picture.
The weather prevented the parade
scheduled from The Age-Herald office
to the Trianon theatre and this proved
a big disappointment to the crowds who
were waiting for the band to come
down the street at the head of the
members of the school
Miss Dolly Dalrymple was in entire
charge of the affair and while the pa
rade was called off due to the weather,
Miss Dolly did her part in seeing that
the boys enjoyed themselves.
That Nazimova is one of the biggest
attractions that comes to Birmingham
was proven beyond a doubt by the big
crowds that attended the Trianon Mon
day despite the weather. The theatre
was filled at practically all perform
ances and standing room was at q
premium in the afternoon and evening.
1t proved that Birmingham wanted the
biggest attractions procurable and they
showed their appreciation of the Tri-
anon in furnishing the best attractions
on the screen tiday.
"The Brat is the latest vehicle Of
this celebrated actress, and is a picture
the whole family will enjoy. Record
crowds will no doubt fill the Trianon
theatre for the remainder of the week.
This attraction will be at the Trianon
this week only and it is urged that az
many as possible attend the early
morning performances.

girls family are hearing the fathers

appears woman leading a child by the
hand. She says that the girls father
is also the father of this child And

her enough money to keep her from

He is under the sway of an opium i'm

brother. With the brother in his power.
this evil man uses all of his influence
to win the girl. She goes to his home
to appeal to his manhood in behalf Of

today without a peer as a dramatic

ATTRACTIVE FEATURES
ON BILL AT THE LYRIC

Two more clever and entertaining
comedians have yet to appear at the
Lyric than Jack Cahill and Don Ro-

their little skit, Happy Days" were
pleasing to the audience. Seated to-
gether beside a large tree he tells of his
wanderings and of his school days play
mate, one Mary Smith, who reminded
him so much of a Goldfish, all mouth and
no brains. He is quite shocked when he
finds out that the girl he is talking to
is no other than Mary Smith. They sang
Happy Days" to close the act and were
loudly applauded.
With the help of three stage hands,
Henry Lewis puts over a nifty little
sketch entitled Adrian" He is full of
what the act is lacking, pep. Never
theless one of the stage hands is a pretty
good singer and coupled with his fat self
draws generous applause from the audi
ence.
There is plenty of good singing in the
act Of the seven Venetian Gypsies, who
entertain for fourteen minutes with their
splendid vehicle "Frolics in a Gypsy
Camp" Vocal and Instrumental num-
bers of ashigh- class variety are rendered,
and the singing, costumes and scenery
are tremendously blended.
The bill is closed by the Three Genii,"
= trio of lady acrobats, and some clever
stunts are performed by the three fair
and fair built ladies.
News pictures of interest and snappy
selections by the orchestra make up the
bill. which is altogether up to the Lyric
standard.

"LUCK IN PAWN"
COMING To STRAND

She had pawned her jewels only to
find that she had no future, and all she
had left Of any value was her luck She
actually found someone to take chance
on that, and, then Annabel Lee set out
on the series OF adventures which make
Luck in Pawn one of the cleverest
comedies ever released by Paramount
Aircraft, and 1t shows Miss Clark in one
of her most charming roles.
Miss Clark and Luck in Pawn make
UP the combination which will be the
feature attraction at the Strand for four
days starting Wednesday. AS come
dienne Miss Clark has no rivals. She is
acknowledged by critics to be the queen
of light comedy, and in Luck in Pawn"
she is supplied with role that furnishes
her countless opportunities for the hu-
morous depletion of which she is capable.
Luck in Pawn Is the story Of Anna
bel Lee, country girl who comes to
New York to study art. She gets an op-
portunty to have her work criticised
a trip to see him. A nearby pawnbroker
supplies the funds when some old jew
elry is offered as collateral.
She makes the trip, but the artist tells
Annabel that she will never be successful
in her chosen career. There is little
ease in her sorrow because she meets
La charming young millionaire. but he
only adds to her troubles when he asks
her to a gorgeous dance and she just
hasn't thing to wear.
But the pawnbroker again comes to
Annabers aid. He loans her the money
for pretty frock, banking on her luck.
How successful he is on his speculation
and the numerous interesting adventures
that befall Annabel make Luck in
Pawn a corking good story.
In addition to Luck in Pawn" Miss

the Wednesday to Saturday bill, and there
will be a new Paramount Briggs COM

discharged, ana when she came out she
had check for $500 and was engaged
to the boss. This is what happened TO
Monica Trant, the heroine in His Off
cial Fiancee,' being shown at the Strand
today only, the latest Paramount-Artcra alt
comedy starring Vivian Martin, which
registered another success for the Strand
at its first showing Monday.
Monica wasn't really the boss fancee.
she was just acting like it, and was re-
ceiving the money on account of the
purely business arrangement
Miss Martin as Monica, has one of the
best roles of her career. She is noted for
the fact that she has never played any
thing hut wholesome girl roles; she bias
never essayed the vampire type nor por-
trayed the intensely emotional type. And
this is the kind of role she has in Ills

high Paramount standard.

environment with a scorn for even the
limited advantages offered her by
mission school. Rose, though adored
by every man within radius of 1cO
miles, is fancy free until Bruce Nor
ton, a young engineer, appears on the
scene. Then Rose knows him for her
man.
In the meantime Norton meets the
man who had ruined the life of his
sister years before and shoots him
down. Then ensues a wild chase by
Devlin and his aides to capture Norton
and the equally determined battle of
wits by which Rose seeks to save her
lover. She is aided by DR.. Cusick, who
does not know that the hunted en-
ginee, is his own brother-in-law and
had killed the man who stole the doc
tors wife and for whom he, too, had
been searching many years
To see how Rose finally triumphs,
even at the cost of surrendering to
Father Thibault, is to witness series
of stirring incidents, thrilling escapes
in the dark. spectacular gunplay and
all the tense moments of good old
fashioned melodrama. for that is what
"Tiger Rose is, the melodrama of
bygone time touched into new life by

ADJUSTMENTS
TIGER ROSE"

TIGER KOSE
Frankly melodramatic, Tiger Rose"
willard Mack's play presented at the
Jefferson theatre last night, deals with
elemental passion in a way that for
realism and force is seldom seen on
the contemporary stage. Much of the
credit for the impression 1t makes Is
due to the wizardry of David Belasco.
His skillful hand is seen all through
this throbbing drama of the Hudson
Bay country and the Canadian mounted
police.
Never has a more realistic rainstorm
been seen on the local stage than that
which occurs in the second act Of
play. every detail. in fact. from heavy
electrical display in Stimulating a
storm. reveals the Belasco genius.
Naturally. all these touches heighten
the realism of the play itself, although
it is quite strong enough and interest
ing enough to grip the attention OF the
most jaded theatre patron and hold 1t
to the end. FROM time to time play
wrights and novelists have gone to the
locale Of Tiger Rose" for material and
many of them have wrought we'll. ex-
ceedingly well. Mr.. Mack is no excep-
ton to the rule. He has fashioned a
play which is redolent of the great.

live and where they figure in a drama
