 WALLACE REID;
 AT HE STRAND

Little brown jugs and dancing don't have much connection ordinarily. but when .ves" Tibble set to work he put them together in such way as to make a fortune.
 He didn { use the brown jugs before he danced or anything like that, because It all happened since jugs are used only for vinegar and molasses, but how he did use them makes "The Dancin' Foof' one of the peppiest comedies seen in some time, and IL is going to De the attraction at the Strand theatre all this week, with Wallace Reid in the role of Ves the boy whose feet couldn't behave wheii there was music in the air. Rounding out this comedy bill there will be the first new Sennett comedy in several weeks, Gee Whizz,' a corker, with all the speed it's name implies
 Wally Reid, the handsomest man on the screen, has been seen in many ana varied roles since he took up his screen career but Yes Tibble provides him some new points. As dancer he is as much at home as in his more strenuous char aeterizations and his breezy personality fits him admirably for the role he DOT trays.
 And the supporting cast supplied the star is way beyond the ordinary. In look- ing for leading woman, who has to De his dancing partner in 'The Dancn Fool' the director remembered viva cious. beautiful. young woman who ap- peared in "Everywoman" and Why Change Your Wife?" so Bebe Daniels was chosen, and Miss Daniels does the best work of her career, as Junie the girl who taught Yes how to use these dancing feet of his.
 The rest of the cast is up to the same high standard. Raymond Hatton ana Tully Marshall are two of the finest character actors before the camera aud they both have roles in which they are seen at their best.
 As for the star, everyone knows wha- to expect of Wally, pleasing and fin ished performance and this is what he gives.

 Dan Fitch and Steve Barrian, with the entire company will appear in a rollcking farce comedy, especially ar- ranged by Fitch and Barrian, strictly fer laughing purposes, called The Dixie Derby" This big spectacle is complete with every scenic detail and is an act that will produce many laughs.
 By completely changing in this man. ner," said F. L. Maddocks, manager of the Majestic, we make the show so entirely different that the patrons will see a completely new production, and one that from rehearsals, looks like an even better bill than the opening ore.
 The Majestic was packed to the doors at every performance last week and the management feels sure that Birmingham theatregoers are appreci- ating the efforts made to bring this novelty to the city"

The Seasons Best Offerings at the Local Theatres
Unusual Features Al Loew s the First Half Of This Week

From the sun-baked plains of Persia come a quintet of exceptional bound. ing, whirling, balancing acrobats to headline the weeks opening bill at Loew's Bijou theatre.
 Four men and woman make up the troup and before the startled audience they whirl, bound, somersault like so many spinning whirlwinds picked up from their own sandy plains and set dcwn upon the stage. There is grace ana muscular skill in their perform ance, there is a wild, wierd touch of the Orient that always, to the Occi- dental mind. smacks of mystery
 The Al Coffin troup unquestionably offers an attraction that is different, a vaudeville act that carries a thrill in every moment.
 Eli Dawson calls himself The Joy- fuI Comedian" and will be seen in his mcnologue sketch "The Booster" In terspersed with his nonsense are a number of songs said to be wei worth while. Dawson is heralded as 8 black face comedian of exceptional talent and his offering is said to be funny above words.
 Two episodes mark the offering of Arthur Pickens and company in the humorous farce Their Wedding Day" The sketch, written by Franklyn Ar cell, is a typical farce comedy play let and will be presented by Pickens and his accompanying players in their own original manner.
 Victor and Adams are billed as man and maid. peerless purveyors of non sencicalities' Victor is an eccentric comedian and Miss Adams is said to act as a most acceptable foil to his humorous nonsence. In addition there are number of songs said to be very pleasing.
 Songs, acrobatie dances, violin and banjo music all go to make up Ward and Gowry's musical melange that's different" The two men are reported

Birmingham this week will have an opportunity of determining for itself what minstrel stock company is.
 Theatregoers of the Magic City of course have grown used to the Mad docks-Parks players appearing from week to week in new characterization But the theatrical public of Birming ham still judges ministrelsy from road performances where each actor plays but one role.
 The Dan Fitch AIl-Star Minstrel Stock Company, which has proven such wonderful success at the Majestic theatre during the past week. now will have the opportunity of demonstrating the real meaning of minstrel stock" Fer when the curtain goes up on the opening of the second weeks produc- ton, the entire first part will present different aspect, with a novelty in scenic effects, new costumes, new song numbers new jokes and, in fact, every thing new except the players them selves. Therein lies the true meaning of 'all star minstrel stock" the pres entation of different pleasing roles from week to week by high-class min- strel men.
 In the role to follow the first part MT. Fitch has arranged an excellent

.JES' CALL ME JIM;
 LYRIC, THIS WEEK

In announcing Will Rogers in 'Jes Call Me Jim" new Goldwyn feature, for the entire week, the Lyric was content to point to the cinema star with the brief announcement that the hero of ''Jubilo and Water, Water Everywhere needs no other introduction than the mere men, tion of his name.
 .tJes Call Me Jim'' suggests ''jes what" the picture is, in a way. It is a Rogers type film, and all of his 'Jubiloism" and Water, Water Everywhereism" IS rolled into this picture. The plot itself is excellent but even without this sup port Rogers would have made the pie ture go, for he puts just the right amount of personality into it to push It out in front, so to speak. But With such a vehicle as 'Jes Call Me Jim" is, Rogers is declared to make the most of it, the result being what critics have called an other Rogers triumph.
 Possessing unique personality. re- freshingiy different from anything the screen has ever held, a genuine human ness and an infmitable gift of facial eX- pression, combined with magnetism. Will Rogers has taken the motion picture world by storm, in the opinion of hosts of his admirers and critics scattered throughout the country.
 Incidentally, every Rogers picture that has been released by Godwyn in recent months has been a tremendous money maker, box office receipts having been broken by "Jubilo,'' Almost Illus band and ..Water, Water Everywhere .'Jes Call Me Jim is said to be no ex- ception and another Rogers triumph IS merely touring the country in little wooden box, marked express.
 ''Jes Call Me Jim has been booked for a solid week because of its great valua- tion by the Lyric mana cement.
