"Footlights and Shadows" a thrilling gripping story of the life of 'Folie' girl upon whom the shadow of the foot lights fell with sinister force, will be the feature attraction tomorrow, Tuesday and Wednesday at the 4Alcazar theatre The management will also offer in the future continuous music from II a. m. to 10:30 D. m., which will be rendered by Earl N. Wiley and George l.. Hamrick, two of the south's best organists.
 "Footlights and Shadows" is not the ordinary kind of story that introduces an aspiring artiste who is pleased to realize her ambition at the sacrifice Of all other things. Such story would be commonplace and uninteresting, for sue cess to this type is to be had merely for the asking. Instead, Gloria Dawns' " worldly success was made secondary to her etheral happiness and it is the diff faculties that beset her in her quest for both love and happiness and profes- sonal fame that gives the play it's all absorbing, intensely interesting theme

This is the first presentation of this photoplay in the south, and it is the first of Charles Rays newest and big ger" pictures from his own studio. No doubt the presentation of this big at traction in Birmingham will prove one of the distinct hits of the season.
 "Forty-FiTe Minutes from Broadway is perhaps the most celebrated stage play of three generations, and critics de- clare that the picture is even better en- -tertanment than the stage play. It is declared that Charles Ray is destined to make this play even more popular on the screen than did George NJ. Conan on the speaking stage.
 "Forty-Five Minutes from Broadway" is one of the most human stories Mr Ray has ever produced It takes it's title from it's locale, New Rochelle, which Is approximately forty-minures from Broadway and Forty-second street, New York City.
