One OF the most thrilling scenes in
d. w. Grihith's Dream Street"
which is delighting the moving pic
ture lovers Of Wilmington. at the
Aldine Theatre. Market street at
Eighth, this week, is that OF the fire
and panic that occur in the music
hall II may be OF interest to note
that the theatre used in filming the
story Of Dream Street" is an exact
replica of one Of the famous old
London music-halls.
To make the reproduction faith
ful. Mr.. Griffith sent to England for
Frank Timpson, an elderly theat-
rical manager, who had been asso-
ciated with music-halls for many
years The quaint. old boxes, the
narrow seats. the antique stage
lights and other things that made
music-halis so distinctive are all
present. In these theatres no one
removed his hat. and few their pipes
and cigars. II was in one Of these
theatres that Harry Lauder first ap-
peared. and many OF the greatest
artists OF the stage had their begin
nings amidst such surroundings.

Real entertainment is to be found
in Charles Rays ne picture AN old

very cordial despite the warm
weather. But the latter was soor

Temporarily forsaking his coun-
try-boy role. Ray has placed his
personality in the portrayal Of the
city youth. He makes this char

parts. His naturalness and lack OF
affectation make the audiences his
friends.

ture called THE Big Adventure"
For the benefit and enlightenment
Of those who are not acquainted

young star is a f,~year old chap
with a way about him that is win

as a whistle and has just the sort
Of lovable little boy who will make
IL worthwhile as an entertainment.

Even a jaded reviewer could not
pass anything but a favorable criti-
cism on Society snobs." the latest
Selznick picture featuring Conway
Tearle, which opened at The Savoy
Theatre yesterday and will be con-
tinued today and tomorrow. Very
evidently no expense has been spar
ed in making this production a rep
lica OF the wealthiest circles OF
society. Entertainments are shown
with an attention to correct detail
seldom equalled. Conway Tearle,
who is starring in Society Snobs," ."
enacts the role OF a waiter with his
usual dignity and naturalness. He
achieves the difhcult feat OF keeping
the respect OF the audience in spite
Of the menial employment in which
he Is engaged. Tho plot is so en-
crossing. and the hero has so many
obstacles to overcome before reach
ing the desired goal, that there is
not a dragging moment during the
whole performance.
