NATIONAL,

When you have a really good story
and add to it clever dancing, excruci-
atingly funny chatter, and tuneful,
catchy songs, sung by pretty girls, the
result is a musical gem of the first
water. Such a gem is The Rainbow
Girl" which began a weeks run at
the National last night.
The musical play is based on a
comedy by Jerome X. Jerome. 1t is
story Of an actress in love with
supposed shirt salesman. They are
married on the stage after the even
ing performance. When the bride
arrives at the husbands castle in Eng
land, she discovers, much to her dis
comfiture, that he is a nobleman.
Then, to add to her modification,
it turns out she is his buffers niece.
As such, the old fellow has a great
deal to say to her as to how she
should behave in select circles. All
is well that ends well, however, and
after a little misunderstanding and
much to do, the couple are reconciled-
By far the greatest hit of the eve

GARDEN.

There is sufficient diversity Of
scene and action in "a Trick Of
Fate" in which Bessie Barriscale is
starred at Moore's Garden Theater
the first three days of this week, to
satisfy the most exacting taste.
Miss Barriscale is cast in q role
that affords her a rather less ham
pered opportunity than she has had
in others OF her recent releases.
Not only is the star an enhancing
vision in such costumes as a French
danseuse might be expected to ap-
pear in an "Oo-la-la7 number, but the
Partisan night life and the dramatic
subject is further notable for the
fidelity with which II visualizes the
power which it exerts in a climax
that partakes OF all Of the melodra-
matte tensity OF a well-conceiVed po-
lice play.
In the supporting cast are many
whose names have always stood for
the most sincere character delinea-
ton, including Alfred Whitman and
Joe Bowling.

cipals were Gus Mortimer, Vivian

Harry Fitzgerald, Charlotte Chastine,
Austin King, Bert Leater, Helen Dor

SAVOY.

The combination of Charlie Chap
lin in his latest picture, shoulder
Arms" and Tom Mix in Twisted
Trails" formed a double feature pro-
gram at Crandalrs Savoy yesterday
that was pleasing from beginning to
end. shoulder Arms" is one of the
best pictures in which Chaplin has
been seen. Taking military life for
it's theme. it offers a wealth of OPP
portunities for matchmaking. And
while Chaplin is himself responsible
for most Of the fun. due credit must
be given to the supporting cast. Edna
Purviance is again seen as his lead
ing woman.
The other feature, Twisted Trails"
is, of course, a Western subject Of
that type in which Tom Mix shines
to particular advantage, giving him
plenty of chances for daring.

Helene Lackaye gets herself thor

With Mary Nash in the leading role
and capable supporting company
The Big Chance" scores with dar-
ing and original idea.
Imagine a former mill girl living in
neat, but not gaudy apartment in New
York with her former employer, a
youth whom she refuses to marry for
fear the home folks in New Bedford,
Mass, would say she married him for
his money. Imagine also coterie OF
derelicts who make the apartment
rendezvous, who. worship Mary, and
enjoy life without being bothered by
any details Of hard work, and you
have the setting at the beginning Of
act one.
Charley Hickson. the ne'er-do-Wen
youth. who loves Mary and is loved by
her in return, is shipped on to Sing
Sing for forgery by an uncle bent on
breaking the Illicit love AFFAIR. In
the succeeding months Larry Thorn
dyke, a remittance man from Ireland;
"Pinky' Granville, a wealthy youth
and Eddie Crandall, a race track tout,
continue their devotion to the girl,
and ''Pinky" alone transgresses In
urging her to forsake the convict and
allow him to be her protector" in
sumptuous apartment. She prompt
ly calls him and he. with the two
others, obeys her prompting to enlist
in the great struggle overseas and be
regenerated.
Upon his pardon Mary's lover also is
forced into The Big Chance"
Quite a bit of humor of the play
is provided by Anna Mack Berlein,
who, as Mrs. MaIloy, proprietor Of the
apartments where the couple live,
winks at the absence of a wedding
ring. William Z. Meehan. is the chief
comedian in the cast, and his With
cisms and mannerisms won many a
laugh.

Day SgeFnt Night Views Of Films and Plays
Notes and Gossip of Player Folk
and Their Vehicles on Both
Speaking and Silent Stage

One of the most interesting events
Of the year in a theatrical way will
be the presentation here next week.
at the BeIasco Theater. Of "a Burgo-
master of Belgium" by Maurice
Maeterlinck.
OF course, anything from the pen Of
the noted Belgian is more than
worth seeing, but this has the added
claim to fame in the fact that it
brings the playwright to US in an
absolutely new role-that of a real
ist
Not that it's a war play in the
realistic sense of bayonets and
screams. Despite the fact that the
idea is taken direct from the Belgian
White Book, there's not a single
atrocity on stage, and the piece is
fairly Grecian in its setting. There
is only one scene for the three acts,
and the entire action takes place in
approximately eight hours.
But the big thing is Maeterlinck
as a realist. One can almost as easily
imagine Shaw as the writer Of a
modern bedroom farce!
FATTY" Arbuckle has just signed
up a three-year contract, aggregat-
ing 100000 dollars. with the Fa-

METROPOLITAN AND KNICKER-
ROCKER.

The screen dramatization Of the
later Charles KIein's famous play,
1.-THE Lion and the Mouse" which is
being shown at CrandalPs Metropoli-
tan Theater during the early part Of
this week. serves to elaborate on the
finer points of the plot which cannot
be brought out on the stage. The film
was also shown yesterday and is being
held over today at the Knickerbocker.
Alice Joyce, in the role of Shirley
ROssmore, is introduced to the audi
ence while she is in Paris studying.
Here she meets Jefferson Ryder, the
upright son OF the Wall Street finan-
cier, John Burkett Ryder, and they
fall in love. Their troubles begin
when Shirley is called home, her
father being in trouble. Ryder, jr.,
