CRANDALL'S
Idle Class"

DEPARTING temporarily from its
custom OF presenting several
photoplays in a single week, Gran
dalrs Theater, beginning with this
afternoon, will present for the en-
tire seven-day period a double-fea-
ture bill. The foremost attraction
will be supplied by Charlie Chap
lin in his latest comedy hit, THE
Idle Glass;" the secondary by Will
Rogers in Edward e. Kidder's stage
success, "A Poor Relation" made
famous by Sol Smith Russell and
the elder Joseph jefferson.
THE Idle Class" written and d.
rected by its star, presents the
worlds greatest 'coraic in two dis
tinct roles-first as the familiar fig
ure Of the vagabond with the dirty
derby, the baggy trousers and the
skinny coat; then as a swagger
young man of wealth, married to
ravishing beauty and cursed with
the perplexing handicap of habitual
absent .mindedness.
The high spots in the comedy are
reached when the vagabond wanders
onto golf links with a bag of
clubs and no ball and manages to
play a game with the paraphernalia
of others engaged in the popular
sport, and at the bal masque, when
II becomes necessary to rescue the
forgetful husband from a suit of
arr Tor with a can openers
"A Poor Relation" traces the story
of a poverty stricken inventor who
lives in the slums and struggles
with a device from which he hopes
in time to derive great wealth. This
quaint figure has developed a philos-
ophy all his own and brings happi-
ness into the lives of all Of his asso-
ciates.
Finally he enlists the interest Of
a rich relative and through his
daughter rescues himself and his
adopted Riddles from the penury in
which they have shared hardships
for so long. VIII Rogers is perfect

Irritation of the well-known drama,

French author. Victor Hugo.
Mary Tudor. the first reigning

But the daughter of Henry VIII

moves through Victor Hugo's
drama of Mary's brief but turbu-

All MOScOniS Can
Dance Like Sire

n ROBABLY no one In the world
Is better pleased by the sue
cess Of the Mosconi brothers
and their talented sister Verna. who
are this weeks headliners at B. F.
Keith's Theater, than their father.
The elder Mosconi was one of the
greatest dancers of his time, and
1t was his chief ambition that his
sons should succeed him.
To him, dancing was both an art
and a profession. He never ceased
to study 1t, during all the time that
he was actively engaged in dancing,
and jusv as a famous lawyer or
statesman hopes that his son may
carry on his work, Mosconi senior
had high ambitions for his children.
1t often happens that the sons
of men who reach distinction In
any special field are mediocrities,
but that was not the case i'm the
Mosconi family. The boys and
Verna made good. They had a
natural aptitude for dancing, they
entered into 1t with interest and
enthusiasm, and they are now at
the top-notch Of their profession.
Louis and Charles, Of course, are
best known of the four Mosconis
now appearing on the stage. but
their sister Verna and their young
est brother Willie have every in
tention Of showing their elders a
few things. Louis and Charles
will have to keep themselves at
their best. or the others may sur
pass them.
The Mosconis attracted much at.
