At the Strand,

Heretofore on screen or stage
there have been glimpses of "a horse
race that carried a limited element
of suspense and climax, but Maurice
Tourneur in his perturbation of THE
County Fair" receives credit for put
ting the first real race upon view.
In this fine rural drama of New
England life Tourneur carries his ad-
mirers to a typical county fair and
reaches his grand climax in tho
thrilling race which Cold Molasses
wins. From the exciting start to
the nerve-racking finish 1t is a real
race, over a real racetrack and run
by trained thoroughbreds. The re-
suit is in doubt up to the very ex-
citing finale. and when the equine
hero ave the fortune and home of
the leading spirits in this simple
study of New England life there is
a combination of sport and drama
that is irresistible.
The big hit is announced for three
days at the Strand theatre commence
ing today and the interest In its local
presentation will carry it to the same
success that has been met every
where 1t is shown. In addition to a
play of thrills and tears and heart
interest, plus enough good whole

nary attractions with this happy ele-
ment, it is given by a cast that has
developed at least three stars in

weeks in Boston. will be seen here
at the Majestic theatre next week
on Tuesday night with Georgiana
Hewitt. Eddie CARVE and the same
brilliant Broadway cast and produc-
ticn. After seeing Miss Poe as Bet
ty, one is glad that she won't be
good. Possessing a voice of rich
tenderness, Miss Poe brings a
wealth of personality to the role
which justifies her name in electric
lights over any theatre in America.
Betty Be Good" lives up to the
reputation established everywhere
last season and requests galore are
made for return engagements. There
isn't a dull moment in it, and the
lines, as well as the situations, are
overwhelmingly funny.
1t is due to Mr.. Garvie and the
clever comedians that the humor OF
the tale is heightened by their drol-
leries. The plot is about the con-
sistency of those of most musical
comedies and the endeavor in this
story lies mainly in the efforts OF a
young mar and his friends to keep
the news of his marriage from a
former flame. Through q series of
mistakes Tom Price, a bridegroom
breaks away from Betty Lee, a mu-
steal comedy star who expects him
to wed her and engages Sam Kirby,
his best man, to engage quarters for
him in New York. Sam unwitt1ngly
rents the rooms of Betty, whose
landlady supposes she will be gone
for a week. Tom any Amy Stark
weather, the bride, enter Betty's
room and are there surprised by
Betty, who does not discover the
presence of Amy, but imagines Tom
has come to renew his love affair.
The father of the bride is a frisky
blade too, and he has met the ac-
tress Betty. Purchasing two dia-
mond pendants for his daughter
bride, he is cajoled into giving them
to Betty. and his efforts to get them
back are the least part Of the
amusement furnished in this meri-
torious play. In the musical feat
ures Betty Be Good" is exception
ally blest. Mirth, melody, marvel

rus a bevy of dazzling, dancing

Two others that are expected to
be appointed as the vacancies occur

plain to every American, Hughes
because the same faction that elect
