STRAND.
THE GOLDEN GATE

Regardless of the claim in other
parts OF the country that the the
strical season is over and it is next
to impossible to obtain good head
line features at the present time.
the Strand Theater, as demonstrat-
ed in the double bill of vaudeville
and pictures presented yesterday,
continues to DER to Washingtonians
a lineup of stellar attractions each
week that would do credit to any
theater. The current weeks pre-
sentatior is undoubtedly one of The
best all-round vaudeville and cine
ma programs seen here in some
time.
The popular character artist,
Lester Barnard. supported by a most
capable company is seen to decided
advantage in the headline offering,
on the vaudeville half Of the bill.
The Golden Gate" being the title
of the satircal sketch presented as
written by Aaron Hoffman. author
of welcome Stranger and
Friendly Enemies, The sketch, IS
clever and unusual In idea, and as
might be expected, the lines are
Win Ine re-
suit that the large audience in at
tendance, had twenty solid minutes
of laughter and chucklees, and in
addition received a little moral les
son. Special scenic settings add
to the effectiveness of the number.
AS an extra added attraction, and
dividing honors equally with the
foregoing are the Dancers Su-
-.
and most sptly named The Misses
Hamilton and Calvert and Herman,
appear in this torpchorean triumph,
aer dances that are extremely
graceful and beautiful. Other
dances given are of the Russian
curtains enhance the beauty of the
dances.
The Aerial Macks. IN a thrilling
trapeze act, open the bill, followed
by Tess and Ann Carter. two rear
melody girls who can both sing
and play, and won weIl-deserved
applause and numerous recalls.
Beck and Stone, two live-wire boys
announced as the singers With
Trimmings" also caught on" with
their very first song. and likewise
had a hard time getting away from
the constant demand for more.
On the photodramatic portion of
the program, when the screen dis
closes Elaine Hammerstein in the
first scene of her latest Selznick
picture. The Miracle OF Manhat-
tan" the surroundings and atmos-
phere convey the impression that
one is about to witness a conven-.
tional society drama. But lit can
be stated that there is nothing con-
yentional about this picture. and
1t Is drama of all sorts of So
ciety. 49,,
The story. by Bradley King, rap
idly develops into a fast-movins
tale of romance and adventure, ana
the leading characterize transported
in breath-takfng manner from her
luxurious surroundings into an at
mosphere OF the direst poverty.
Short-nlm features Of an educa-
tional and comedy nature, together
with special orchestral numbers

GARDEN.
The Devil to Pay

After seeing The Devil To Pay"
at Moore's Garden Theater yester-
day. where the showing will con-
tinue through Wednesday next, this
reviewer is glad that Theodore
Roosevelt and Woodrow Wilson.
with their admission Of relaxation
derived from reading thrillers, have
made it stylish" to really. whole
heartedly enjoy an all-wool.and-a-
yard-wide melodrama.
The DepTf to Pay" adapted from
Frances Nimmo Greene's novel,
hands you the real goods in mystery
and thrills, woven into a plot that
is weird and unique. Can you
imagine your state of mind il you
had rail-roaded a man to the gal
lows for your crime. and after he
had been hanged and you thought
yourself free from exposure, his
voice would speak to you over the
telephone and haunt you day and
night wherever you went.
Then suppose you were indicted
for completely in the murder, and a
safe was opened, the combination
Of which could only have been
known by the man hanged. Would
you believe in your own sanity:
Would you feel the pangs of a gull
ty conscience? Would you believe
it was the spirit of the dead man
haunting you or would you believe
it a hoax?
We puzzled over the mystery, the
while we pondered how the romance
which runs through the entire
story. would turn out. and not un-
til the end Of this Brunton-Pathe
production. when a surprise climax
that brings the story to a close
with a tremendous wallop, is given,
was the situation solved for us.
An all-star cast that lives up TO
its name helps greatly in puttine
the mystery over. Robert Mckim,
known as the screens greatest
villain. is the banker who railroads
one of his employees to the gallows;
Joseph ]. Bowling is the employe:
Roy Stewart the fighting district at
torney, and FRITZ Brunette Is the
girl who breaks her engagement
with Stewart after a quarrel and
becomes engaged to the banker out
of pique. George Fisher plays the
part of the girls brother.
Special orchestral numbers ar
ranged by Claude V. Burrows, and
interesting and amusing short Aim
features complete an unusually
good bill.
