"NIGHTIE NIGHT" IS
 COMING TO JEFFERSON.

"Nighte Night after a seasons run in New York at the Princess Theatre, will be the attraction at the Jefferson, Monday night and Tuesday night, with special matinee Tuesday, October Il and F.
 Adolph Klauber, in producing this rip roaring farce, has proven to the play going public that a farce can be funny without having a trace of questionable humor. There are many screamingly funny situations in "Nightie Night that no authors invented until Miss Matthews and Mrs Stanley introduced them into their play and the reviewers took the time to mention after the first perform ance in New York that "Nightie Night was the most original play that the metropolis had seen in long time.
 In speaking of this Miss Matthews, Mrs Stanley said, we spent a great deal of time seeing every comedy and farce in town, and if we found one situa- tion Or characterization that resembled what we were using in 'Nightie Night, we changed it at once.

THOMAS MEIGHAN AT STRAND IN FINE COMEDY-D

Civilian Clothes at the Strand is proving to be one of the most popular attractions of fair week. It is not only a remarkably good picture, but it is one so constructed as to have an appeal 10 several different kinds of tastes and pref erences. While neither a comedy nor a drama in the strictest sense of the word, it ends by combining in comedy drama, and the result is simply fascinating.
 The play is lfe-like get off on a love affair of a girl and a captain, which was mostly founded on uniform. The af- fair collapsed when he appeared in loud civies. but it was too late after a secret marriage. Then follows something on the order of tanning a shrew as it were, and Thomas Meighan does the tanning most attractvely well as thoroughly.

THE BRANDED WOMAN"

Of course "The Branded Woman. with Norma Talrnadse Is a real emo tional story that makes it's appeal, and a great one. mostly from the emotional angle. but it has its touches of humor, too. George Faweett is always certain to produce smiles even in very serious themes, but the most subtle amusing touch has been left to Vincent serrano. Three times have watched him asx that rogush question when given ticket that was really to exile him. 'Is that a first-cIass ticket?" and eah time it's real depth of humor strikes deeper. That Is really master stroke to let the villain out of the story. not only without blood shed. but with that remark of such ex- Quisite droliness.
