POli Review

The Mimic World, headlining the bill at Polls this week is a real leader in it's class. There are ten girls III the act, all of them lively and in their childish impersonation, very clever youngsters. Not one of them seems to be over fifteen or sixteen years old and they appear as though they hao just been all liked up'' by their man. mas for @ kiddies birthday party "Hammerstein'' and his Property boy add to the enjoyment of the act with a clean brand of humor- The Italian soloist and Russell, the violinfst, add greatly to the charm of the act
 Prosini is a, master accordeon1st. and plays with unusual Skill ana finesse, everything from operat1c and concert selections to the latest jazz: He fills an important place on the bill and is worth hearing.
 Miss Grace Nelson, a soloist, has achieved great success in the past with beth church choir and stage work and has a voice of no ordinary quality. Miss Nelson immediately wins her place in the minds of the audience.
 Two black face comedians, in Le- Maire Hayes & Go. are good from the start, having Q real interesting and en- tertaining dialogue chatter. Their act is complete without the cop and the lady. however, whose parts take away the pep which pleases the audi ence in the act. The two comedians are entirely too good in themselves to require any 1uTLner aOultlOl %O IlSIA acts.
 Mack and LaRue, master skaters. present a neat act from start to finish and merit every bit of applause ac- corded them. She is a. fine healthy looking girl and he's clean and a.th- letic looking. The dance numbers and intricate steps with new and original whirls are the best features of this popular number.
 DcNIiue's Paramount feature, Sat urday Night is one of the best ao- ciety dramas screened in some time. The theme proves that men and wo- men canont be happy when marrying so far below their own sphere and en- vtronnent as the rash young man and the daring society belle. The leading players, including Lea trice Joy, Conrad Nagle, Edith Rob erts and Jack Mower, vest their DOT trayals with artistry seldom seen in the movies. Miss Joy and MT. Nagef the society folk while Miss Roberts and MT. Mower are of a lower social class. Cupid gets busy with all of them and the result is a mix-up through natrinIony that would baffle any other producer than Mir. DeAilIe to straighten out but he does it with his accustomed grace The photoplay is filled with stirring and beautiful scenes, all of which will please picture fans. To reveal the story would be unjust to the reader. and it is per haps sufficient to say that Jeanie Mac pherson, who wrote it, never displayed her skill to better advantage

a Paramount picture which will be shown at the West End theatre to-, night.
 Miss Wheaton competed with 5000 other Gotham beauties for the honor of appearing in Experience" Her chance to break into the movies came as the result of the kindness of Q friend who sent her picture to the newspaper. She is eighteen years of age, and had come to New York from her home in Ithaca, N. r., to study music.
 :. Director George Fitzmaurice and the casting department at the Para mount eastern studios decided that some sort of a contest was necessary to get the right girl to plays the part of Beauty" in the picture. All the stage beauties were more less cold and did not fit with MT. Fitzmaur- ices idea of beauty. Consequently the Daily, News was enlisted in the search for the real American beauty and Miss Wheaton was the lucky con- testant.
 Miss Wheaton was busy for two weeks with her part having closeup shots with Richard Barthelmess, who plays the leading role. Youth" and other scenes filmed with the remain ing principals in the cast.

Lyric Review

"Garden F'rolics.'' one of the new burlesque offerings of the year, made it's debut at the Lyric yesterday. AL though decidedly ragged in places, something that time and practice should eliminate, the show display ed splendid individual talent The Absence of a workable plot Inuddled the affair considerably, and the music al numbers were far from successful for which both the cast and the or chestra were to blame.
 The stage settings were very pret- ty, the costumes new and attractive, and the chorus really worth while looking at. But the facilities of the place were terribly Inismanaged. and one scene was a, positive f1ivver.
 Lou Powers and Pearl Hamilton were the individual hits. Powers had plenty of comedy, particularly in his portrayal of the drunk in the Pa lais Royale scene. This scene was the best of the show.
 Miss Dot Stewart, as Twinkle Sur atte,'' was a dancer of unusual m nerit, and richly deserved the appreciation of her efforts.
 Garden Fro1ics'' will continue for the remainder of the week. and next week the famous Al. K. Hall will bring his equally famous "Spo porting Widows here for a weeks stand.

IN THE THEATRES
POLFS.

,.
 Another very excellent entertain ment Is on show at Poli's today and tomorrow. The 'tJr. Mimic World with company of 25 is the headline attraction at Polls today and tomor- row. This is the act that has been breaking records everywhere it has appeared and is expected to do the same in this city. It is a play Of mirth, filled with everything that goes to make the stage worth while. It has a "chicken chorus" of 1sK. a score of the prettiest girls, cutest lit tie kiddies ever seen on any stage, all young and fresh and unspoi1ed by stage life. There are only four men in the act, all the rest visions of fenlinfty, the pick of Americas gar In his native Italy. Frosini was a musical sensation. He has been ac- knowledged by modern musicians to be a miracle in the realms of har- mony as regards the accordeon.
 Miss Nelson is an American made prima donna. She studied in Ameri- ca and has never sung outside of America, but experts in music claim that her voice has been perfectly de- veloped and that there are few so- pranos of her equal to be found any where. Miss Nelson is a Kansas City girl. She studied in Kansas City and made her professional debut in Kansas City.
 Mack and LaRus a pretty, graceful girlish young lady and a Spry athletic looking young chap, comprise the per sonnel of this excellent team of en- tertainers. Both are past masters Sn the art of roller skating and in troduce many new intricate and or iginaI whirls besides exhibiting a program Of dance numbers.
 IeNIair and Hayes, 'EThe American Aces of Spades,' complete an attrac- tive vaudeville program.
 The Feature picture, Saturday Night,'' reviewed in this column yes terday Is proving popular. It is diff ferent than the usual run of features shown in Bridgeport for some weeks, and proved acceptable to picture fans.

WOMAN PREACHER JOINS RANKS
 OF BIRTH CONTROL ADVOCATES

London, Feb 1.-The advocate of birth central in England have re- ceived an unexpected recruit in Miss Maude Royden, the famous woman preacher.
 T believe that the ideal relation between man and woman in marriage is one wherein child is desired by both, she says, writing in a maga- abolished to deal with the question of birth control.
 But she proceeds, ''I also believe that to insist on this as the one and only permissible relationship is to take upon ones self a really stagger- ing responsibility for all sorts of physical suffering. nervous strain and possible alienation. which no one individual is at all able to esti- mate or dogmaitze about
 To me the mass of preventable suf- fering caused by the bearing. of un- wanted children is a truly ghastiy tragedy. Women's lives are dragged down by it to level of continual ill., health. overwork and nervous ex- nausdon.

 Then one remembers the children, also, unavoidably deprived of their sion of younger ones-and the home made sordid by overcrowding and overwork.
 Let those who believe as do preach our ideal; but in the name Of humanity do not seek to impose it by sheer force of ignorance on those who, if they had knowledge. would use it.

Pretty Miss Offers To Sell Herself $3 Pay Of A Mortgage On Her Mothers Home.

A pitiful story reached us today when Miss Elsie Clark inlparted the news that her mothers home in New Jersey was subject to pass into the hands of another owner. From Miss EIsie's words between tears 1t ap- pears that after her fathers death she took to the stage and for the past six years has sacrificed all pleas ure in order to send her earnings home to pay the notes as they fell due.
 Owing to several weeks 1ay-off re- gently for the company in which Miss Clark appears she was unable to meet the last note and upon advice from her attorney the home is doom ed to pass along unless she raises 5000 within 30 days. Miss Clark has decided her only alternative is to marry some man with s3,000 as her love for her mother and her desire to keep her mother in pleasant cir cumstanceS for her remaining days brought forth the idea to sell her. self.
