SEASON OF MUSIC
Topeka Concert Series to Pre-
sent Famous Artists.
Chamlee, Said To Be Garuso'S
Successor, Opens Series.

Henry J. Dotterweich, manager of
the Topeka concert series, announces
the attractions for the third season,
1921-1922.
Jascha Heifetz will make his first
and only Kansas appearance for this
year when he bows to the Topeka au-
dience. The career Of this genius is
without a parallel in the annals of
artistry. He began playing the violin
at the age of three, completed the
course at the Royal Music School OF
Wilma at seven, and after study with
Professor Auer, was q mature artist
at the age of ten. His tour thru Rus
STA was a triumph; the keenest critics
of Europe had nothing but praise for
him; then he came and conquered
America, and is now completing tour
of the world. Just twenty years old,
he ranks as the greatest violinist OF all
time.
Next in Importance, perhaps, is the
first appearance here of Mario Cham
lee, American tenor, who has been
hera1ded by critics as the successor of
Caruso. Pitts Sanborn of the New
voice resembles more closely the
Caruso voice than any other have
ever heard" Chamlee will open the
series October 10. His duties at the
Metropolitan this year leave only the
month of October for concerts.
Hulda Lashanska, American So
prano, and Frances Aida. Metropolitan
prima donna, will both appear on the
series. To quote the New York Post:
| Mime. Lashanska, with her deep APP
peal to the feelings, as well as by the
beauty of her voice, reminded one OF
both Sembrich and Nordica. She is
an oasis in the desert of voices
Among the prima donna sopranos re-
garded as pre-eminent none has at
tanned a greater popularity than Nine
Frances Aida, one of the principals OF
the Metropolitan Opera company.

Be MORE VARIETY
Public's Demand Gets Quick
Answer From Paramount.
All Next Week To Be Cele-
brated by Theaters OF Nation.

AS a result of the motion picture
Ru9lic's demand for more variety in
klms, Paramount week, which will
y celebrated by most of the theaters
OF the country during the week of
september ALE, is likely to usher in a
season which will be rich in big pro-
auctions, surprising any that have
been shown henceforth.
The list of Paramount pictures
scheduled for early release this sea-
son, which will be inaugurated by
Paramount week as a national demon-
stration for better motion pictures,
shows that Paramount is leaving no
stone unturned to improve the stand
ard Of its productions.
1.-The Affairs of Anatol," directed
by Cecil B. DeMille with a cast includ-
ing Wallace Reid, Gloria Swanson,
Elicit Dexter, Bebe Daniels, Monte
Blue, Wanda Hawley, Theodore Rob-
erts, Agnes Ayres, Theodore Kosloff,
Polly Moran, Raymond Hatton and
Julia Faye. is expected to be the most
talkel-about picture of the new sea-
son.
The Great Moment" written by
Elinor Glyn especially for Gloria
Swanson as Miss Swanson's first Para
mount starring picture, is another
early fall release. At pre-reIease
showings In New York this picture
created9a sensation, and smashed all
records. at the RiVoli theater during
the hottest two weeks of the summer.
This picture is to be at the Isis next
week
Betty compson's first Paramount
starring picture, "At the End of the
World" is being heralded as some
thing out of the ordinary in its con-
ception and execution. This. picture
is the first produced by Penrhyn
Stanlaws, the noted illustrator, who,
as everybody knows, gave up his brush
to become film director.
Another big production coming soon
is Experience" produced for Para
mount by George Fitzmaurice. Rich
ard Barthelmess plays the role OF
Youth in this ceIluloid translation of
George V. Hobart's famous morality
play.
William deMille and Rita Weiman,
the short story writer, have been busy
for the last several months at the
Paramount studio in Hollywood, work
ing on a picture produced by Mr.. de-
Mile from Miss Weiman's story, 1.-THE
Stage Door" The picture will be
known as After the \Show," and is
said to be the best thing this artist
of the films has ever produced. Lila
Lee, Jack Holt, and Charles Ogle are
in the leading parts.
Another picture which is being
looked forward to with a great deal OF
interest is Ladies Must Live" the
last production made by George Loane
Tucker before his death. Tucker,
1.-THE Miracle Man" is likely to remain
for some time to come as the best pic
ture ever produced in this country
and naturally the public is interested
in Ladies Must Live"
All in all, it looks as if the movies
needed only little spur from the pub
lie to jump into their best stride.
The Topeka state journal. [volume] (Topeka, Kansas) 1892-1980, 1921-09-03

One might naturally picture Den
man as a man of immense stature.
On the contrary, he is hardly of me-
dium height, almost reticent in dispo-
sition and a man of very few words.
When he talks there is usually wit In
what he says. One day someone asked
him how he liked his job.
"Oh, all right he answered. only
it's a good thing that that tent full of
elephants amt birds. Why? Because
it's a known fact that a bird will eat
its deigtht in food everl day."
1t is said that the Ringing Brothers
and Barnum & Bailey elephant act is
an index by which the scope of all its
departments may be measured. The
arenic program consumes almost three
hours and introduces hundreds OF
artists. The menagerie is the most
remarkable ever exhibited. All the
many features are to be exhibited
here Friday, September %.
