Back in the old days they used to say that all roads led to Rome. They don any more, but the best roads in Jeffer- son county have one destination, and that is West Lake park. And one doesn t have to depend on roads alone to get to this popular resort, where they can find one of the best floors and the 1hest music in many miles. The street car service to Bessemer is noted Tor us speed, and big busses take care of tae

 And anyone will bear witness that the end of the trip is we'll worth the journey. As mentioned before, the floor and music at West Lake park are far-famed.

MISLEADING LADY, FINE EC0MEDY-DRAMA AT NEW MAJESTIC

The presentation of "The Misleading Lady" by the Pickert company at the Majestic Spext week is altogether in keeping with their policy of showing only the very best plays obtainable. This is the second play of the company and is of the same high quality as the play last week. which was one Of the big theatrical hits of the season.
 In selecting The Misleading Lady for presentation, the management mas tried to find a play entirely different from the average. The resulting choice has brought play to the local stage
 that is more than different; It IS unique, a really startling comedy drama.
 The story of the society butterfly

THE DRAMA
Who Is Americas Foremost Dramatist?- "Everyman' Given in a New York
 Church-News of Theatres.
By ANNE GOLDEN wILIxERsON

In almost every instance when the quetsion is raised, Who is our lead ing dramatist?'-the name of Eugene O'Neill is mentioned. He probably is our greatest dramatist of today.
 One should bear in mind that by drama we do not mean always plays that reach the stage. 1t has been said of O'Neill that he is such a good play wright that he keeps people away from the theatre by creating for them a stage all their own, in the library under a reading lamp! And this author of Beyond the Horizon" fame has been called the Eugene O'Neill whose plays are more talked about and less at tended than those of any other mod ern playwright
 He is a very prolific writer Indeed he is said now to be four or five plays ahead of the producers. Rehearsals of his Moon of the Caribbe and Gold" are now in progress, the lat ter play to be acted by Willard Mack and others.
 Two pieces by MT. O'Nein, straw and "Cris" will be given in the early fall. One noteworthy thing in con- rection with his plays is that they are available in book form--in some in- stances before they reach the stage.

A new volume haS just been iSSueC containing his Emperor Jones' straw and 'Diffrent." By the way this dramatist. of whom we speak al. ways with pride, is product of Prof George r. Bakers drama classes o1 Harvard
 It is splendid reinforcement of academic influence that is back of ou7 drama in America today Our leading universities, Yale Harvard, Columbia and Chicago university and others, with such dramatists as William Lyon Phelps, George F Baker, Brander Mathews and $. H. Clark. are making their influence felt.
 Edward Sheldon, another leading American playwright, also comes from Prof Bakers Harvard classes. Mr. sheldon is the author of a number of successful plays, among them ''Salva- tion Nell" Romance" The Boss,'' ''rhe Nigger,'N 'N The High Road" ana others.
 The author of 'The Broken Wlng,' ,'' one of the season highly successful and interesting plays. is Charles God dard, who halls from the dramatic classes of Colum bia university. MT. Goddard is quite young and makes his home at the D. K. E. fraternity house in New York and is really "one of the boys"
 Mention should be made of the ex- cellent work that is being done in the drama at our own state university The Blackfriars." under the direction of Hudson Strode, recently put on in Birmingham, a group of one act plays that were exceptionally well done
 They were better in some ways than the noted Washington Square players or the Provincetown players of New York. The Blackfrars are a dramatic asset that this state may we'll be proud of. It is to be hoped that Dr. Strode and his players may visit Bir- mingham several times each season They will not want for appreciative audiences.
 Edith Wyne Matthison appeared as the principal character in 'Everyman" last sunday in St. Marks church, New York. "Everyman" was part of the religious service. Miss Matthison was supported by her husband Charles Ram Kennedy and an amateur cast, Dr. William Nor man Guthrie, rector of this church (who by the way is well known in the south), believes firmly in adopting the artistic along with the church ritual as a means of religious expression. And I must say at this time, this talented ac- tress, Edith Wynne Matthison. is avail able or open for engagements, either n putting on Everyman' or "The Piper She will take the leading role, and will furnish costumes for the amateur cast. An entertainment of this nature might be given as a pageant and out of doors. This may be of interest to Birmingham churches or organizations.

SPANISH DANGERS
 HEAD BILL AT LOEW'S

Versatility features the bill at Loew s Bijou theatre with the weeks opening
 programme. The acts range from Span ish music and footwork to typically
 American productions. Every act on the
 bill carries more than it's share of pep
 and action and the programme may be
 classed as far above the average.
 M. Golden, producer of spectacular
 dancing acts, has combined the three chief attractions of the musical comedy, Gypsy Love-" and as a vehicle for their efforts has arranged a dancing sketch
 that is said to be splendidly suited to them. These dancers, who feature the bill, are Senores Bravo and Trujillo and
 Senoriti Nlichielina, who were brought to this country from Spain especially for Gypsy Love- Typical Spanish dances of the highest character, augmented by
 splendid costumes, are said to have made this act perfect drawing card at every Loew house where it has ap- peared.
 There is nothing foreign about Anger and Adelon, who appear in a distinctly
 American vaudeville offering of songs, musical comedy bits and clever chatter, all bound into a sketch called Slapped . Walter Fenner, with the assistance of
 Edyth Evans and Fern Marshall, will
 offer unique comedy playlet called Show Me" The sketch according to ad- vance notices, has class and speed with an original idea cleverly worked out. Bob Robinson and Rennee Pierce, in a Sklt

 in theme, the new story has just as much fresh humor and charming TO- nance as characterized that famous sue cess
 Miss Dana has few rivals in the screen world as a comedienne, and in "The Off shore Pirate" she is given many oppor- tunities to show why she is at the top of the ladder, and critics say she misses none of the opportunities given her. Her comedy is not limited to any particular type, except the ever new and changing type of the young American girl And one of the most diverting of these girls she has ever portrayed is the heroine of ''The Offshore Pirate.''
 Ardita presented a problem to any young man who wanted to woo her. He couldn't offer her wealth, because she had all the money in the world As for position, she even snffed at royalty. So what could the young man do? He found the answer all right-he Kidnapped the charming Ardta, and he did it in an entirely novel way.
 He calmly boards her yacht with trusty crew of cutthroats at his heels and tells her she is captive. Ardta IS game and begins to feel a keen interest in this young pirate who is handsoms enough to catch her attention. Of course no girl of spirit submits meekly to any pirate, but then he can be interesting.
 Just how interesting he was and how much they came to mean to each other is most pleasingly told in "The Offshore Pirate. Miss Dana's supporting cast IS exceptionally good, while the bold buc- cancer is ably portrayed by the handsome Jack Mulhall
