LYRIC BILL PROVES
 GOOD ENTERTAINMENT

John and Albert Swor, impersona- tors of the Southern negro, who head the bill at the Lyric for the first half of the week are comedians of ability and get over as clever line of really new material as has been heard on the local stage this sea- son. They are by no means ordinary slapstick blaekface artists, but are impersonators of the first order. Their humor is clean and wholesome, and of that quality that 1t kept last nights audience in an uproar from the time that they came on until their last encore.
 Laretto, who is in a skit, "A Touch of Nature" and about whom advance notices had little to say, proved to be a real feature of un- usual interest and entirely out of the usual of vaudeville performances. Laretto is 6 contortionist of excep- tional ability, and in the grotesque livery of frog, aided by unusual stage setting and lighting effecas, his turn proves bizarre and unique.
 Adding a real man sized contribu- ton to the comic side of the bill Jed Dooley, assisted by pretty miss more than lives up to his billing as aThe Cameo Comic' not so much with what he does, but with the things that he attempts and fails at. His alibis are really amusing and 1t it with true astonishment that his audiences eventually learn that he really can do the difficult stunts that he attempts.
 Arthur Astill, mimic and "entrilo- quist, in his Day on an English Farm" brings a turn characteristic of the English variety and music hall stage. It is well calculated to make any of the local people who are Ia nniliar with the victoria Palace, or "Blighty." The bill closes with the Three Lees, who present juggling turn. and some Indian Club gymnas- tics that approach the spectacular.

BarthelmesS is among the actors of that highly developed class who bring to their art all Of the earnestness and sim oerity thst goes to make real genius, as the sturdy, and romantically ap- pealing young mountain character, all of the fineness of Barthelmess is thrown out into felief much as the landscapes and big boulders that "Torable David' lives among stand ruggedly forth.
 aToi'able David" is the story of an unappreciated mountain youth, whose mother even regards him as only 'tol,able.v But back behind the oulet exterior of the boy, big ambitions Tn the way of mountain lad, are burn ing to De expressed. Then one day he is face to face with revenge of inc kind that the mountains require, and needing his mothers pleading, he refrains. Then he becomes known as a coward.

enable him to set up an indoor play
ground on an extensive scale.
Busy golf professionals have been
known to impart instruction by the
group system, taking their pupils to the
drill grounds like a squad OF rockies
and making tAem drive, approach and
putt by company formation. Stringer
is TO give the linksman an opportunity to
reverse the system, IL he cares to. In
