When the Scandals OF 1919" went
west there is no doubt II was a good

There are some very c,ever people

vaudeville circuit Principal among
these is Miss Grace Cameron, a fae
vorite at the Odeon ten or fifteen
years ago in musical comedy. and

Cady. the fat musician comedian;
Victor Carne. an eccentric comedian,
and the White Way Trio, regular

hit Of the evening. 1t may be said for
Rogers that he is as good as any

1reat american Actor at the Odeon
Tuesday Evening.
The out-of-town orders and res
ervations by mail, indicate a capac-
ity business during the return en-
gagement of Guy Bates Post at the
Odeon Theater Tuesday evening. It
is most unusual to have anything
arouse such widespread and general
appeal as is the coming of this well
known star, yet, when one considers
how few original casts and produce
tons are placed on~tour in these
days, it is hardly to be wondered at.
Mr.. Post is one of the few, if not
the only star, who absolutely refuses
to give an abbreviated performance:
his most important instruction to his
advance representatives he has
three-"Measure the stage in detail,
and unless the entire production can
be used, You must not advertise or
play in that city," A deviation from
these instructions means Immediate
dismissal.
In order to give a perfect perform

crews, a triple electrical equipment
