DOLLY FOWLER To BE
At RAMONA SUNDAY

Dolly Fowler. vivacious, captivating,
caSSicious and every other superlative
which indicates pep" that charming
little bundle of femininity who graces
the role of soubrette with Mack's Merry
Mermaids, screduled to start an eX-
tended engagement at the Ramona on
Sunday, has already captured several
citizens of the city. Dolly has a pair
of the most wonderful eyes and they
just won't behave. Dolly likewise has
one of those turn around and look"
appearances when she fits by. She
just seems to live for the pure joy of
living. Dolly's eyes have a very aggra-
waiting habit of wandering around mis-
chievously, and woe be unto mere man
should he find himself within their
vision. Thereon hangs this tale.
Dolly went tripping down the street
yesterday and the word quickly spread
that she was the soubrette on the
new show" Said eyes had landed on
a group of mere men as she passed
by and the mere men, without stopping
to learn the date of Dolly's appearance
on the stage, took it for granted that q
trip to the Ramona last night would
repay them in another bask in her
smile. So they 'journed to the Ra-
mona, sat through ten reels of motion
pictures. and when the house lights
were extinguished for the night they
promptly put up a holler" for Dolly

In this, her newest production. the
Russian star appears in a character
entirely different from any she has es-

a cockney girl from the Limehouse dis

There is in THE Heart of a Child
a gorgeousness of pictorial beauty The
early tenement street scenes are done
with amazing fidelity to detail, yet ere
ated with an eye to the picturesque
that brings their shabbiness to border
on the quaint. Such later bits of the
story as the Bohemian revel. the the

glimpses of Lord Kidderminster's

THE Girl in No. 29'' is the title of the
mystery drama in which Frank Mayo
is appearing in tbs final showings to-
day at the Ramona. 1t is a very cleV-
erly constructed story, in which a
young fellow without his knowledge is
pitched headlong into a string of ad-
ventures which are to try his mettle
to the utmost, test his courage to the
breaking point and satisfy his longing
for adventure. 1t happens when one
morning this young fellow sees in his
mirror the reflection of a young girl
in an apartment across the court at
tempting suicide. Without counting
the cost he dashes madly across the
intervening space and succeeds in pre-
venting the rash act but also succeeds
in unearthing a whole nest of adven-
ture. Frank Mayo is very clever in
the leading role and his support is
excellent.
