RIALT0-Wesley Barry, "Rags to

Rags to Riches" with Wesley Bar

Moore's Rialto this week
Having dedicated his freckles TO
art, this play-boy of the screen is
adding SO many inches to his record
that his impersonations of childhood

He is now boy who will soon be
tall enough to fulfill the demands of

that account to those who have been
his admirers for years.

"The Masquerader" Is another of

pseudO-hero that no one except the chosen
few. who obligingly don't say any

acter from the tarnished brass OF
his double. Yet, in spite of the fact
that all guides to prospective see

is truly wonderful the way in which
Mr.. Post blithely steps In front Of
himself, bends over himself and en-
cages in other similar antics without
losing for a second the reality of the
two roles. The effect to one who no

est compliment that could be paid

the fact that Mr.. Posts art is SO
smoothly co-operated with the art OF
the camera that large proportion OF
the audience does not think or the
complicated methods which lie be-
hind these extraordinary effects.
The settings OF the picture are
English and the views of the interior
of the house Of commons, when that
body is in action, and some eXteriors
of London streets in a fog and little

interiors of luxurious English homes.

PRESIDENT-'Turn to the Right

An audience which filled the President
Theater to it's last row and endowed the
boxes with a home-like air. chuckled
genially through the prologue ana three
acts Of "Turn to the Right" at its first
performance by the President players
last night.
1t is said this play. by Winchel Smith
and John f. Hazard. ran in New York
for 4i3 nights. The attitude of the
audience last night suggested that the
Washington version by the stock COM
pany will prove proportionately popular.
As motion picture, Turn to the
Right seen in Washington several
months ago, proved of caliber similar to
that of James CruZeS 8 production or The
Old Homestead"
Graham Velsey as Joe Hascom, the
young hero. temporarily the victim of
the son of rich employer. gives
dgnified sincerity to his interpreta-
tion that wins sympathetic interest.
Eileen Wilson as Betty, his impetuous
sister. is charming. as usual. but her
role does not allow much scope for
individuality. Henry Duffy and Guy

The settings are probably all that
could be expected for stock produc-

background and the bitches in pro-
pelling the miniature automobile in the

a word should be said about the

BELASCO-Gertrude Hoffman.

Gertrude Hoffman. at the Shubert-
Belasco this week. with her Hello
Everybody" offers nothing different
from her former entertainments, yet
her eXtravagantly staged revue is al
together pleasing.
There is certain something in
Mlss Hoffman's dancing-and the
revue, of course. is full of it-that
fits admirably into vaudeville. Al
though not iackin IN -hatlc qua
tiles, it does not strain the magma
ton of the average theatergoer as
do the "mterpretative" offerings of
many devotees of terpsichore, and
even if one does not care for dancing
gaze upon. What more could be
asked?
Hello. Everybody" is a dancing
show, but it is SO filed with bril-
liantly staged numbers and a host of
young and pretty girls that one can
usual in vaudeville programs. From
the waltz Chopin" a Michel FOX inc
creation, to I'm Green and White"
the performance never drags, and
chorus are very much in evidence
Several of Miss Hoffman's dances
were received with much enthusiasm.
One reminiscent of Hawaii afforded
the star an opportunity to shake a
grass petticoat in a most daring man
ner. The Russian dance and that
with the patriotic theme stepped to
Sousa's STARS and Stripes are quite
above the ordinary. There also is an
Apache number really worth while.
Miss Hoffman loses but few oppor-
tunities to put herself before her
audience.
Aside from the star, the revue
offers much more dancing entertain
ment. Sylphide, featuring Leon
Barte, is pleasing and there is Big
Ben dance in which 1.-TWO O'Clock
might well be observed. The efforts
at comedy in the revue are crude.
With a bit OF bolstering in that de-
partment the show might be consid-
cred topnotcher.

So voluminous have been the ad-

IL is doubtful that many photoplay
patrons are unacquainted with the
merits of the picture and the details
of it's romance. The continuous
crowds indicate public judgment of
the picture that is likely to result In
its retention as a drawing attraction
