ADJUSTMENTS
JESSE JAMES LIFE
STORY TOLD IN FILM
is FULL Of THRILLS

When one reads of the exploits of
he modern bandit, or of the daring of
The modern marauder or band of men
bent on terrorizing a neighborhood,
one unconsciously conjures up a men
tai picture of Jesse James, and them
sets himself about in comparing mod
aTn methods with the tactics of the
man who held the entire country in
error.
For in all history there is no name
hat stands out more prominently
among those who have ridden under
the black flag" than that OF Jesse
James. His career has been the sub
jeet of many a printed article, it has
hcen the foundation for many a tale
of fiction, and it is the days of Jesse
James that one likes to associate With
the olden, golden West in romancing
of the days that are gone.
Jesse James was most interesting
personality. North, West, East and
South have heard of him. Men and
women, boys and girls, have talked
of him, his name is even today han
died thousands of times in conversa-
ton everywhere, jokingly, seriously,
as we'll as in "reminiscences.
So that when the opportunity is
given one to study at close range the
career OF this Interesting personality
it is a chance that no one will over
look.
And this opportunity in the in
stance of the Strands announcement
that Under the Black Flag" will hold
that screen over a three days engage
ment. starting next Tuesday becomes
doubly enhanced when it is known
that the man portraying the role OF
the famous outlaw is Jesse James, Jr..
son of the leader Of the greatest gang
that ever held a country in terror,
and that the picture is based on ac-
tual truth. the exact locations shown
in the film are the exact locations IN
and around which the stirring scenes
of the checkered life of his father took
place. Jesse James. Jr., has been
surrounded by very capable cast OF
PLAYERS and it has been said by the
most eminent Of the authorities and
reviewers that the completed picture
is not only one of the most instruc-
tive and historical pictures now being
shown. but that it is one of the big
gest and most thrilling outdoor sto-
ries Of the West ever TO reach the
screen. And yet with all the thrills
and all the excitement it is in no
wise a gruesome spectacle, not a lu-
rid blood curdling tale OF ldWlesSnesS
and crime. 1t does not advocate out
lawry, it does not seek TO JustlIy
Jesse James and his acts. On the
contrary, it points unerringly and ae-
curately to a moral that is unmis-
taxable.
Under the Black Flag reveals in
timately secrets that have never be-
fore been told, sidelights on the char
acf,ay, IF tho man Jesse james, in
sights into the daring of the bandit
Jesse James. His life romance is
unfolded step by step in drama of
thrills and excitement, of action and
suspense, in motion picture epic
one will remember long after it has
been witnessed.
The engagement is positively limit
ed TO three days and the manage
ment is urging attendance during the
matinees that all may be accommo-
dated. I

POli Review

Uniqueness is the keynote of the program presented the last three days Of this week at PoIs theatre. There are none or the old stereotyped vaudeville stunts displayed but in every act there Is either an entirely new idea or a new touch which is eX- ceedingly pleasing.
 Powell and Brown who present eS- pecially beautiful pictures by simply SprinkIing various cOlOred sands on wooden frames Among their works are desert and country scenes. As a finale, Brown presents realistic pie tUre of burning ship while Powell shows a volcano m eruption. This Is very interesting and instructive to those who would not realize that such remarkable things could be done with mere sand, unless they actually wit messed the act.
 who had Adelaide Wilson for a nurse would die from laughing if not from paris green which she administered to suit the patients color taste, as she does in the little sAit the "Untrained Nurse in which she appears on the bill with Victor Burns. Miss Wilson is one of the best com ediennes seen here in some time.' Her comedy is she wins her audience by use of her gres- st asset, personality.
 The -'Highlowbrow'' is very differ ent from the usual type of vaudeville
 
 sketch IS so new, So delectable, so splendid that it would be wrong to spoil the effect by divulging any of it. But it is enough to say that the players in the piece were called back many times last night for their fine performance. The remainder of the Dill consists of Jo.hnny Muldoon and FrankIyn, who offer 9, classy little musical act and Loney Haskell, the jclIiest of the jolly monologists.
 To fit the vaudeville bill a picture with an unusual plot was chosen for the photoplay offering this week. Miss Billie Dove, who recently grad- uated from the comedy type of pie lures, is the star of Youth to Youth" In the picture Miss Dove is seen as a very popular m usical comedy star who discovers that Youth to Youth with limited means is better than outh to Age, with unlimited wealth, The scenes in and around the Jolly theatre boat which is drifting down the Mississippi river are very delight ful.

Palace Review

The best thing On the Palace pro- gram for the last half of this week is not the feature photoplay, Burn ing Sands" although that is very Look Out Below" This is as gen timely funny as any screen comedy yet seen here and the Palace au- dience last night enjoyed it 1m- mensely. Incidentally, the funniest thing and the best actor in it is a dog-a seasick dog at that.
 Wanda Hawley, Milton Stills and Jacqueline Logan are seen in Burn ing Sands" which is strongly remin- iscent of "The Sheik'' and fully as in- teresting. The action moves rapidly and the desert scenes are excellent. As an added feature for afternoon patrons, Lois Wilson is presented in Broad Day Light" a powerful un- derworld story of young mans re- generation through the strength of a beautiful woman's love.
 Walter Smith, who has a rich and deep baritone voice, has two excel lent vocal numbers Frank Ridge, tenor, and Lillian Crossman. soprano, sing the "Neapolitan Love Song" and Victor Herbert's Hove Is Best Of All" very attractively and for an overture the Palace orchestra plays "If I Were King"
 Some unusually interesting news pictures are shown in the current Palace News Review.

 Among the incidental features probably no such beautiful film as "The Eternal City, ever has been shown upon a Bridgeport screen, be- ing purely inspirational and artistic in it's theme and amp1ification.
 For comedy, Look Out Below has m ore punch scenes and laughs than anything outside of Chaplin.

It goes without saying that neither I nor my team will permit any such illegal decision.
 Just where MT. Morice gets the right to change his decision is beyond my comprehension. I have consulted by wire with football experts in all parts of the country and I have to receive an answer to justify MT Morice in his action.
