lures are of intense human interest and entirely delightful in plot and theme.
 The vaudeville programme for the week is of the all-star variety and some of the most novel and entertaining acts are in cluded in each bill. Among the other fea- lures are new screen comedies, the news of the world shown in pictures, Tad 8 famous animated cartoons, travelogues, pipe organ selections, the whole compris- ing programme of entertainment that makes '.The Best for Less at Loew's" the talk of the town.
 Nothing appeals more powerfully to everybody than story of the circus No one ever grows too old for the elephants and the gilded wagons, and at some time in his life nearly every man who was a real boy has fallen head over heels in love with the star rider.
 The charm of the circus will be won- One of the scenes shows a three-ring circus in full action and later the great tent is shown as wreck in the path of a storm. Miss Mason plays the part of the star rider of the show-of which her guardian since childhood is the old clown She falls in love with the elephant trainer, and it is soon a case of Hove me, love my elephant"

JOSEF ROSENBLATT IN CONCERT HERE Noted Tenor Singer Will Be Heard at Jefferson
 Tonight

When Josef Rosenblatt sings in the Jefferson theatre tonight at S30 o'clock it will be the first appearance Of one or the most picturesque and striking mu- sical figures, according to New York press reviewers, that has entered the con cert field in years. With voice that leading critics have seriously compared to Caruso's and with a personality that is said to be of arresting interest, this tenor has created an amount of talk and written comment that has attested the strong impression he has made in the musical world.
 If Josef Rosenblatt had studied for the operatic stage he would unquestionably have become one of the worlds greates tenors. said the critic of the New York Times, for his voice possesses almost in- credible brillianee and power, and he pos sesses the true temperament for operate singing. Instead MT. Rosenblatt trained himself to become a cantor, position which he TOW occupies in one of the wealthiest of New York synagogues Notwithstanding his churchly training, he has mastered a remarkably wide roper toire of operatic arias and folk songs from which selections have been made fol his concert. Stuart Ross at the piano.
 The programme follows:
 Yohrzeit (Silberta; Oshamnu (Roitman) Adno Prosti (Russian) Denza); Aria from "The Huguenots'' (Meyerbeer) Zaroh Chayo (Rosenblatt); Ov Horachmin (Rosenblatt); "The Last Rose of Sum. ber'' (Moore); Duna (old Irish song) Omar Rabbi Elosor (RosenblatD; Aui dem Pripetshok (old Jewish folk song).

That the slogan. "The Best for Less at Loew's," is no empty catch phrase or mere iteration, is attested by the thou sands of theatregoers who have been at- tracted to Lows Bijou by the excellence of the programmes presented and the popular prices in vogue at the popular playhouse.
 Owing to the vast number of theatres throughout the United States owned by Loew interests, many of the leading acts in vaudeville and the most noted of the screen stars, have been secured exclu- siyely for the Loew circuit, as the offer- ing this season at the local theatre will show
