Bills at Theater

\ good crowd enjoyed the Georgia
Minstrels at the Palace theater last
night and the funny jokes and sing
ing of the cOlored entertainers made
a big hit with the audience.
Elsie Ferguson, star of stage and

Palace for Sunday only in ''Out-
cast photoplav in which she ap-
peared in the stellar role on the leg
itimate stage. This picture has not
yet appeared in Los Angeles, a fact
which speaks volume for the aggres-
siveness of the local picutre
house. The story tells of young
woman, deserted by her husband and
forced 10 take to the streets to earn
her livelihood. In her wanderingS
she meets young man in a similar
plight, and the two of them join
forces in an effort to get back 10
their former stations in life.

viding as it does an excellent We
