POIIT'S

There's a. real treat for music lovers in the Concert Review. which heads an excellent program of vaudeville at Po1i's. The offering requires the ser vices of several artists who are heard in a varied program of instrumental and vacal numbers.

PARK.

''The Bowery Burlesqu-rs" will pro vide the attraction at the Park theatre three days, beginning Thursday. Al ways in the van of burlesque combi- nations, this organization is one of the best this year. Billy Foster and Frank Harcourt, the well known comedians long prominent in vaude- vile and until recently stars in musical comedy, are the leaders. In the new two-act burlesque, "The Health Hunters" they have a splen- did chance to demontrate their abil- ity as fun-makers. The piece is bright and snappy, with sparkling lines, succession of comic episodes, beauti- fu1 stage costumes and ingeniously arranged dances and ensembles. The chorus of two dozen comedy women is a sprightly lot, and the display of a variety of costumes worn by them is gorgeous. Miss Pam Lawrence, a dashing comedienne; Grace Anderson, priTna donna; Libby Hart and Sylvia Webb lead the feminine contingent, and Marty Seamon and Joe Fern aid Foster and Harcourt in the principal roles. During the action of the piece specialties will be introduced by Pam Lawrence, Grace Anderson and Sylvia Webb.

ON THE JOB TOO SOON?

Washington, May 7-The latitude allowed the Federal Board for Voca- tional Education in the administration of the Vocational Rehabilitation Act is as broad in some of it's phases as the restrictions are limited, in others The law only allows those men to par ticipate in its benefits who are "com- pensable," and whose disability is at least 10 per cent. But the disabled man is allowed much liberty in his decision in regard to undertaking the training courses. It has been the nat ural impulse of these returned soldiers to get back to work as quickly as pos sible. Many, seeing no benefit in wasting time at some training school, have taken the first job offered, and often in a short while have been fore ed to give 1t up, realizing that their strength was not sufficient to "carry on." This experience, though unfor- tunate, need not be discourag ging. The offer of the government is still open to such men, and many are finding 1t to their advantage to come back and get the preparation which they need The board is particularly anxious to have the assistance of the public in making this opportunity known to all disabled men who, having re-entered civil life, are finding their handicaps too much for them. They have de- monstrated the need for this special training-it may still be theirs for the asking.

PLAZA

Tonight closes a particularly fine show at the Plaza theatre. Large audiences for the past two days have adjudged it one of the best of the year. Norma Ta1madge in "The Pro- batton Wife, her l4test success, and a splendid vaudeville show appear.
 Tomorrow starts the much talked of picture, ''The Wildcat of Paris" a super-special with Priscilla Dean in the title role. "She purr,' ''she claw" 'ishe scratCh,'' yet Mon Dieu---''how sine love- It is Paris to the very life. The Apaches of that famous city, strange denizens of the sha;7owy half world, creatures of an outlaw king dom. Have you ever wondered what they are like; in what respect they resemble the Apache Indians of the United States, from whom they gained their name? Their life is continual war with the gendarne. They live by their wit and frequently die for lack of it. If you would see intimately the strangest band of out laws under the moon you must see ''The Wildcat of Paris.' A big vaude- vile bill accompanies it.

 in Mickey" to be shown at Polls theatre all next week is pet squirrel who will go straight to the hearts of all the children. And children" serves a good alibi for Ma and Pa, for most of these things that are flor children" are like the toy railroad which little Johnny gets for Christmas and never gets a chance to play with because his father has it all day.
 The squirrel does a comedy scene with a pet bulldog that is delightfully."- natural. Mickey's bull terrier makes one dive for the squirrel and Brer Squirrel stands not on the order of his going. He beats it for dear life. Mickey wears boys clothes during the first part of the play and the squirrel sprints up her trouser leg.
 The hero tries to save the lady from the squirrning squirrel, and his gal lant efforts look very peculiar to Mickey's foster father, who hastens up bent on murder and sudden death. And then he sees the squirrel and joins the rescue party.
 And, by the way, Mickey ought to get the Iron Cross for her courage. Pshaw Any girl might lead an army like Jeanne D'Arc, or just save chil- dren in burning houses, or jump off cliffs, or any little thing like that. But to let a rat or squirrel run up your clothes! Ooooo! If there were a call for volunteers to save the country by letting rats run up dresses, the only answer would be a yell fading away in the distance.
 Mickey will be presented in con junction with the regular vaudeville programs at PoIis.
