Strand this week offers full value for
the price of admission. The screen
presentation, with Lionel Barrymore
IS 1.-The Master Mind" is the first Of
a series of productions in which Mr..
Barrymore appears for the First Ma
tional Exhibitors. It is interesting
enough to augur we'll for the future
of this new photoplay group.
There have been SO many plots
hashed and rehashed to give effective
ness to an otherwise threadbare dra-
matte situation that the seeing Of one
Of them in which the theme more than
makes up for the nudity of outworn
development evokes gratitude to those
whose ideas and craftsmanship made
the production possible. In "The
Master Mind" Henry Allen, who is Mr..
Barrymore, takes the onlooker through
u plot that seems too cruel to be real.
There is family, composed of
girl whom he has successfully re-
formed. He uses the girl and her
artificial relatives then to achieve his
purpose Of vengeance against Cortland
wainwright, lawyer who seeks to be
elected Governor, but whom Allen
holds responsible 'for the execution of
his innocent brother.

Burlesque at Columbia
Full of Good Funmaking
Joe Marks and Benny Howard
Give Amusing Performance
With London Bellies

With touch of the Sam Bernard in
his method, diminutive but exceedingly
active, Joe Marks scored as a funmaker
with Rose Sydell's London Bellies, which
opened for a weeks run yesterday af-
ternoon at the Columbia Theater As
the show progresses Marks reveals
other touches, but is generally anus
ing, especially in his scenes with
Benny Howard, who makes an excellent
toll for his slapstick comedy.
Plots are hardly necessity in bur-
lesque productions, but James Madison
has written good book for the Lon
don Bellies, especially a well-staged
"Burlesque' is arrested and put on
trial. The performance which follows
is meant as a demonstration for the
Judge and court. There was no cpl
logue, so it cannot be said whether the
performance pleased the Judge, but it
surely pleased the large audience.
"Pleasure Before Business" as the
is called, is in two acts
and eight scenes, the most lavish being
the last scene Of the second act, which
takes place in an Arabian palace. An
interesting test is made in the second
act. when the jazzy, modern tunes of
to-day are pitted against the oldtime
songs, the applause of the audience to
determine the winner. James Horton
sang the old songs and Theda Bernard
the new. Both were assisted by mem
bers of the chorus, appropriately at
tired. Yesterday it seemed the old
songs won out.
