REAL PHOTOGRAPHS
OF PASSION PLAY

Thousands have seen the famous
Passion Play" of Oberammergau
but millions never have. Oberam-
mergau nestles in the charming
vale OF Ammer. Few places are
more beautifully situated. Actual
photographs. the highest quality Of

W. ]. Gruenwald. who lived for
many months in the home of Anton
Lang. These will be shown on
Sunday evening in Broadway Pres
byterian church to illustrate the
evening sermon on 1.-THE Passion of
Our Divine Lord" There is an ap-
peal about the whole scene too deep
for words. No sight in all the world
so stirs the heart as the Via Do
lorosa climaxing in the cruciflHon.
Is it not strange how professionalism
celebrates Christmas and almost
ignores Good Friday? This is the
next thing to actually seeing the
Passion Play. There is nothing ir-
reverant, the whole scene is filled
with solemnity. Through it Christ
speaks Of His death and its mean
ing for us.

Burtis Has Two
Attractions for
the Present Week

Head Over Heels" the new play
with music in which Henry w.
Savage will send his only star,
Mitzi, is promised with a cast of
metropolitan players when it
comes to the Burtis next Tuesday
and Wednesday.
The music Of Head Over Heels"
Is one of the most famous of
Jerome Kern's musical comedy
successes and is believed by many
to be his very best effort. He has
literally stuffed his score with
dance numbers that keep the toes
a-tapping, besides three solos for
Mitzi and numerous duets, quar-
tets and others that include the en-
tire ensemble. Edgar Alan Woolf
has given story and lyrics full
OF bright lines, comic situations
and at times considerable pathos.
Head Over Heels" is called a
play with music, but it has so
much of the usual delights Of COM
ic opera, musical comedy and even
opera bouffe and SO many novel;
ties that it is hard to classify. Its
gay comedy and swift action, to-
gether with the appeal of the ultra
modern music we're hailed by the
critics OF New York and Chicago,
where the piece enjoyed long en-
gagements last season, as a happy
and irresistible combination.
1t is one Of the kind of attrac-
| tons that Henry, W. Savage can
be counted upon to send-brilliant

the cast, which contains so many
important names and does not de-
pend upon single star, although
it has the foremost one of musical
