Ethel Clayton, appearing at the
LaSalle over the weekend, makes a
switch in photoplays, offering the
thousands OF admirers OF this star
not only the chance to see her in
two plays but also in two sharply
contrasting plays. Exit, the Vamp'
which has its final showings here

sprightliest, gayest sort, fully as
popular and witty and funny as the
unforgetable sham in which Miss
Clayton appeared last year. And
supporting the star in this story Of
a husband off a-wooing, while the
wife instead of boo-hooing begins
billing and cooling, is an iHustrious
cast which includes Theodore Rob-
erts, T. Roy Barnes, FOntaine La
Rue. Mickey Moore, and William
Boyd.
Tomorrow brings the same star
with another great cast in a tense
drama OF mysterious affairs. called
