Have Wrong viewpoint.

Men of the world hold that 1t Is I'M
possible to do a benevolent action, ex-

the sake of admiration. If for no

Doubtless they are also convinced,

By Al Posen

Seats are now on sale for most unique theatrical attraction the Princeton Triangle Club. This noted organization will make it's first ap- pearance in Birmingham at the Lyric theatre next Tuesday evening and seats are now available.
 The Man From Earth" introduces something entirely new on the stage. the application of "expressionism'' to humorous drama. "Expressionsim," which means simply the setting forth of an idea by emphasis on the most important elements of situation. was first introduced into this coun- try by the Russian players of the Moscow Art Thearte and has here tofore been confined entirely to serf- ous drama. It required youthful originality to conceive the idea of employing this manner in musical comedy and tho collegians intend to show that 1t can be used just as ef- fectively to portray the humorous side Of life as the serious.
 This novel production is entirely the work of the under graduate body. Several hundred students take part in it's execution. in one way or an- other. The scenery, involving the latest ideas in light painting" and 'psychologic spots" is entirely the result of undergraduates talent.

LORD ROBERTS IS FINE
 ACT AT LOEW's

The special holiday program at Loew's has one act that Is sure to please the children. This is Lord" Roberts, who is billed as the tiniest human" and although he may not be that. he is very tiny. very cute. and finished actor. His act portrays Santa Claus bringing doll and thus introduces the principal.
 Number 1. Edwards and Allen, in rather unusual type of opening act offer some good dancing and poor singing Well costumed and pleasing with some good comedy. One bow.
 Number 2, Dreon Sisters, a good act, with some clever impersonation and singing. The costuming is noth- ing to deserve especial mention but the act as a whole is entertaining. The Thursday afternoon audience liked them very much. Three bows and an encore and could have taken another.
 Number 3, Lord Roberts and conn pany, the company being the person who is cast as Santa Claus. Easily the best act on the bill. Three bows.
 Number f, Mccormack and Irving, in a patcr act of rather ordinary caliber. He Is very good and she knows how to wear clothes. One bow.
 Number ,. Joe De Kos Troupe, an acrobatic offering. with the usual routine. They served to hold the house and retired with d bow
 The movnig picture attraction is Trooper O'Neii" starring Charles Jones. It is the usual story of the northwest with much heroism by the Canadian Royal Mounted Police. The photograph and scenery is good and the action fast and furious. It en- tertains.

oLD-TIME STAR PLANS
 JuDGE IN "LIGHTNIN'"

In his dignifed and courtly por- trayal of the Reno judge in Light nin," now playing at the Jefferson. Parney Gilmore is a revelation 10 playgoers who were thrilled by his robust heroics in his days of stardom on the popular priced circuits. For Barney was one of the sure fire box office magnets in the old "shoot-'em- up' days and was starred for many years at the head of his own com panles.
 The team of Gilmore and Leonard, with which he was originally identi- fled, introduced "Hogan's Alley" in 1893 and toured the principal cities with it for several years. "Kidnaped in New York" was another "meller' that served Barney well. this time as an individual star. He appeared in this classic for seven years.
 Sat the one gem of stage litera- ture that made Parney's name q household word and by long odds his greatest success. was "A Rocky Road to Dublin. revival of this play was staged three years ago and Ear ney was appearing in 1t when John Golden induced him to abandon his tour and take up type" acting.

 The plot is sketchy and revoivcs around the attempts of young man to marry his love despite the fact that her father has employed a quar- tet of ex-pugilists to keep the suitor from seeing the girl.
 Talmage does some really remark able stunts" in falling and rolling and combined with good photography and rather catchy titling the pictures get over well.

"PRIDE OF PALOMA." AT STRAND
 Is GOOD WESTERN PICTURE

"The Pride of Palomar." which is at the Strand for the last half of this week, is a propaganda play with the scene laid in California and the propaganda directed against the Japs. Taking these facts into con sidcrajon it is an interesting piecs. but Forrest Stanley in the lead is very weak and made to appear mo.e so by the good acting of the rest of the cast.
 The story Is of returned soldier who comes home to find his father dead. a s3o0.000 mortgage on his ranch. and land sharp planning to sell the property to a Japanese col onizer. Of course, the daughter of the land operator falls in love with ithe hero and very conveniently q debt lodging rancher is made to pay $f00.000 which he owes. The hero wins and saker the daughter of his enemy in marriage and that is all there Is to it.
 Certainly the photographer must ha given credit for some good work and the scenery is excellent. Races. fights and attempts at murder are

TRAINED SEAL LEADS
 KEITH,S LYRIC PROGRAM

The opening act on the new Lyric bill is by far the best of the lot. The act in question. trained seal, is funny and entertaining to high de- gree. Whoever has had charge of this act has surely spent much ef- fort in the training of his star.
 Number l, Ray G. Huling presents "the clown Seal" The best act, from any standpoint. on the program.
 Number 2, Coffman and Carroll in g blackface act of slightly different variety. The lines of this piece are old and poor but the delivery given them by the male member of the duo NJ. A. Collins of Calera. Burial took place Wednesday afternoon at the family cemetery in Calera.

is sidesplitting. The lady has fair voice and helps materially to hold up the act. Two bows.
 Number 3. Three Rubea." novelty of setting and makeup change this from ordinary dancing and acrobatic act to very interesting piece and Thursday nights audience liked them immensely. Two bows.
 Number 4, Johnny Eckert and Al Harrison in a wireless comedy. Why this act is headlined as a mystery. but it pleases and Mr. Eckhart has good delivery which puts some fair comedy over in an applause winning manner. Two bows and an encore.
 Number 5, Four Versatile Madcaps, offering melange of acrobatic dancing. singing, hand springs and toe dancing. The star of the troupe is the youngest girl who does a toe dancing act. As for the rest they get by, except one lady, who doesn't know what to do with her hands so she waves them, attracting attention from other good performers. The costuming is fair and the routine good. The final number is the best of the lot but failed to hold the audience.
 ne four noses quartet which was scheduled for the No. 2 spot failed to appear and the man agement explained that due to the length of the program 1t was thought advisable not to present them this week. The act Is a good one by local talent and will be given it's try-out shortly after the new year.
 "Destiny's Isle" is the photoplay attraction and it is a very entertain ing screen drama.

The one-fourth interest held by
B F. Belts in the lease on the Gold
en- Eagle claim of the Hudson Min
ing company at Royston, was sold
last night to George Box, Harry
Cunningham and c. Y. Poy, who will
proceed with the development of the
ground. The deal called for a sub
stantial cash consideration and final
touches to the transaction were put
on this morning when the papers
were signed and the money paid
to the retiring member Of the leas-
ing syndicate.
Development will be instituted I'M
mediately by Box, Cunningham and
Poy and five men will henceforth be
engaged in the operations. 1t is es-
timated that there is "in sight,
amounting to between $4,000 and
$4,000, providing no further explo-
ration is carried forward
Since the discovery on the Golden
Eagle claim was made about six
months ago a production in round
numbers of $4,000 resulted from an
incline shaft that was sunk to a
depth of SO feet. Drifting has not
been prosecuted to any great ex.
tent, but ore is showing in three
faces that will probably bring an
average mill settlement Of better
than 500 a ton.
