 Among the features of the act is the Lindley sextet, which includes the three French sisters, Gabrille, Simmone and Claret, and for their offering alone which is only part of the act, they re- ceived many encores.

ADJUSTMENTS By EsTELLE BETHEA HALE
AL c. FIELD IS THE
 DEAN OF LAUGHSMITHS

Al G. Field, the minstrel dean, con- tends that laughter, while not an anti dote for all the ills that humans are heir to, and while it may not banish all of them by any means, will yet stand off nine-tenths of our trivial troubles and take a fall out of the more serious ones.
 Laughter is the sunshine of the soul says Mir. Field. Ut will bring happiness into the hearts of the aged 1t is the leaven of youth and innocence. It is the treasure of the humble of the earth and the wealth of the poor. Laughter is the foe of woe and it dissipates melancholy. It is the silver on the shimmer of smiles, the glint of the gold of gladness."
 For more than a third of a century Al G. Field has owned and managed Il successful minstrel show. The world IS better for the laughter that he has brought into it and the man who is re- sponsible for this is all the happier him. self for the success of his mission.
 Mir Field 8 1920-2l edition of his fa- nous minstrels will be at the Jefferson theatre for four performances, beginning Thursday. Friday and Saturday nights, with special matinee Saturday.

BackerS of 0Wenton Eleven EIated Over Showing of the
 Team Against Mississippi
By JOHN D. HOLMES.

The battered crew from the Univer- sity of Mississippi returned to their native haunts a sadder and wiser bunch as a result of the drubbing hey received at the hands of the Birmlng- ham Southern Partners at Redwood last Saturday. The Mississippians journeyed here with all the confidence in the world that they would anaex another easy scalp and they returned with one less, but not until they had put up one of the hardest fights In which the Partners have ever battled. The supporters of Coach Browns | eleven are now confident that it .an hold her own against any school Of its class in the south.
 All the grid veterans looked with ad- miration upon the way in which Eddie Lewis conducted himself throughout the game. His playing was the cut standing feature of the game on the offensive as well as the defensive. A good deal has already been said about
 his bunting, but it was left for Satur>

 for practice yesterday afternoon.
 Staton and Baker have filled his
 place well. but things are bound to happen now that he is back. The team had only light workout yesterday afternoon and a great deal
 of the time was taken up by Coaches

 some advice as to future endeavors.
 The Partners take a journey to
 Selma next Saturday, where they will
 do battle against the aggregation iron,

 Methcdists will take on another scalp, bur they will have to put up a strong front--and that they are now certainly able to do.

One of those strong stories that can be built on the experiences of what one 'night tern the CT m nal class, goes to make "The White Moll" a pleasing though strenuous melodrama.

NORMA TALMADGE IN
 "PANTHEA"-ALCAZAR

The most striking attribute of Pan thea" the Alcazar picture, is it's re- markably fine love scenes. Norma Tai madge. who is featured as the heroine of the piece, is one of the fe wactresses who doesn't picture her love scene as a. light diversion. And it does seem with the sentimental part of plays ike anything else, that what is worth doing at all is worth doing well.
 'Panthea" is a story of the tyrany or Russia under the old regime, but into if there enters little or none of the an archial scenes of political c'ashes Those which are featured arc only necessary to the exceedingly interesting romance. on which the story is founded
 It is the idea of the wife who sacri- fees herself for the purpose of saving her husband from failure that IS threatening his health and sanity. She nakes very unusual bargain along with the sacrifice, which furnishes the tense climax that later comes.

preparation, and some times a warning, as to what is coming. Then "Suds' is well named. Studs Is a very pleasing offer at the Strand and 1t is just as light. airy and homely, too, as the name would indicate.
 Mary Pickford distinguishes herself in this production by her fine comedy touch. Mary has always had way of making her comedy about 50 per cent pathos, and perhaps that is the secret of her success in it. She certainly does cut pathetic little figure in Studs, " as the imaginative laundry girl, who imagined that she was a countess, and that sir Horace" was her lover. She
 even convinces her fellow workers for time. At first it looks like one
 of those transformation plots, where the butterfly emerges from the cocoon.
 And Mary does so work on your sym pathy with the comical character that you find yourself hoping against hope that it will be so. But the little laun- dress never emerges.
 It is long story how 1t all came about, but in the end the little lady of the studs takes Emerson's noteworthy advice and accepts the society of her contemporaries and the connection of events" and the last glimpse of her Is in a mud puddle where somehow she seems most natural.
 A Sennett comedy, "Its a Boy" Is be- ing shown in addition to the feature picture, and also Tropical Tips.
