 OPENING TUESDAY
Final Rehearsal Satisfies Di- reCtor-To Have Four
 Presentations

Final rehearsal for the "Jollies of i92%' minstrel and musical comedy revue, was held Monday night with the entire cast present. The offer ing went off with a sn noothness that presages a brilliant performance at the premier on Tuesday night.
 While the requests for tickets has been large, Lew Salter, chairman of the committee in charge of the dis tribution of tickets, states there are a number of seats available for each four performances and that they can be had by making application at his office.
 owing to some misunderstanding as to the policy of Zamora Temple in regard to admittance, Chairman Sal ter states that admittance to the per- fornances will be seat coupons, and that each member of the shrine can secure his quota by making applica- ton: these tickets may be distributed to relatives of friends and will be honored at the door without question.
 The "Jollies of 1928" will be shown for four nights at the Masonic audi torium and consists of two acts and six scenes. The first act is a min strel first part" and the cast in cludes some of the best amateur talent in Birmingham. The second is the musical comedy revue with large cast of talented performers and & large beauty chorus. The costumes and stage settings are elaborate and the program Is replete with catchy songs and musical numbers and lively dances.
 Chirman Salter announces that on Friday night the performance will be broadcasted. special radio out fit will be installed for that purpose.

If You Need a Medicine
 You Should Have the Best

Have you ever stopped to reason why it is that so many products that are ex- tensively advertised, all at once drop out of sight and are soon forgotten? The reason is plain-the article did not fulfill the promises of the manufac- turer. This applies more particularly to a medicine. A medicinal preparation that has real curative value almost sells itself, as like an endless chain system, the remedy is recommended by those who have been benefited to those who are in need of it.
 A prominent druggist says, "Take for example Dr. kilmer's Swamp Root, a preparation l have sold for many years and never hesitate to recommend, for In almost every case it shows excellent results, as many of my customers tes- tify. No other kidney remedy has so large a sale"
 According to sworn statements and verified testimony of thousands who have used the preparation, the success of Dr. Kilmers Swamp-Root is due to the fact that so many people claim that it fulfills almost every wish in over coming kidney, liver and bladder ail ments, corrects urinary troubles and neutralizes the uric acid which causes rheumatism.
 You may receive a sample bottle of Swamp-Root by Parcel Post. Address Dr. Kilmer < Co.,, Binghamton, N. r., and enclose ten cents; also mention his paper. Large and medium size bot ties for sale at all drug stores-Adv.

LAUGHING SUCCESS. .|S, JUST MARR|ED'
Famous Farce Comedy Com ing To JefferSon-Three-
 And-HaIf-Year Sensation

"Just Married" the famous laugh ing success by Adelaide Matthews and Anna Nichols. with a clever cast of Broadway players and the New York production intact, is announced as one of the most important at fractions scheduled at the Jefferson theatre, where it will be seen for three nights and Wednesday matinee commencing Monday.
 This farce comedy was the sensa tion of New York, Chicago, Phila- delphia and Boston for the past three years and a half, and is playing a limited number of cities to the Pacific coast on the tour around the world. Jules Hurtig and the Messrs. Shubert producers of Just Married" promise the same cast and scenic production when the play is presented here.
 The locale of the piece Is on board the French line steamship LaFayette bound out from Bordeaux, France, to New York. Just prior to the ships sailing, hilariously intoxicated young man gets aboard the ship by mistake, and later in the evening into the wrong stateroom. From that time forward the peace of everyone aboard is threatened. Old and young, staid married coupies, and several

CRANE WILBUR TO APPEAR IN PE ERSON
Noted Stage And Screen Star In The Monster Coming
 Thanksgiving

Crane Wilbur. appearing in The Monster" presented by Joseph NJ. Gaites as 1t was seen in New York. Chicago and Philadelphia, will be the attraction at the Jefferson for three days beginning Thanksgiving matinee. The Monster is a thrilling mystery play. The quality of the success it has registered may be sur missed from the fact that 1t kept New York in excitement, suspense and laughter for six months, and had a long and successful run in other cities. The play hinges on the ambi- ton of mad surgeon who Is ready to sacrifice lives, honor and money to prove his wild theories.

ADJUSTMENTS
AT THE LYRIC

Billy Hallen, presenting Its All Apple Sauce" proved the Lyrics re deeming act for the first half of this week. Hallen, however, failed to realize his repeated appearances on the stage were becoming tiresome and overdid the thing to a certain eX- tent. Il would be unjust however not to recognize Hallens natural ability as a comedian.
 Probably the Tuscano Brothers, skillful wielders of Roman axes, pre- scented more real ability as vaudeville performers than did any other of the five. One does not appreciate the quality of this act unless it be borne in mind that their axes are of the heavy steel variety and not the tin makeshifts many jugglers use.
 Jack Wells voice was the feature of Tommy Toner x Co.'S, presentation of Miss Cupid d musical incident, without much music barring a couple of exceptionally well rendered songs by Mr. Wells.
 Fay Gordon and Franklyn Gates in Minus Sense offered a unique dance speciality toned up considerably by their colorful costumes.
 "A Dancing Lesson" with Tim and Kitty O'Meara, was as well received as were any of the five. Billy Hallen excepted. The usual pictures are shOWu,-R. w. K.

B|RM|NGHAN GIRL
 PROVES INSPIRING.
"Covered Wagon,' Starring Lois Wilson, Has Capacity
 Crowd At Jefferson

Elements of love, adventure, his torical fact and the spectacular com bined in the motion picture dramati- zation of the late Emerson Hough's "The Covered Wagon" to give an audience crowding the Jefferson theatre Monday night lesson in American history, thrills and TO- mantle twinges as the fortunes of prairie wagon pioneers of the late forties painfully journeying toward Oregon and the love of Molly Win gate and Will Banion were followed. The picture is accompanied by full orchestra.
 The Covered Wagon" could be well termed a Birmingham product in goodly portion. Lois Wilson Blr- mingham girl, injects charm through out with her wholesome, pretty self. as Molly Wingate. But Lois Wilson is only one of a most excellent cast. J. Warren Kerrigan with the role of Will Baniou, adventuring young frontier blade. to advantage Ernest Torrence makes the strongest i'm prosaiou. probably, of any player in the crude person of Bill Jackson, case-hardeued scout of the western trails. Tully Marshall though scarce - lN recognizable i'll the homcspun gar5 of Jim Bridger, forerunner of de- partment store owners in the region of the Rockies. is delightful. And John Fox, as Jed Wingate. makes Iloughs character walk out of the pages of the book and expectorate tobacco juice on the stage-the while playing the "Yes. We Have No Ba- nanas" of the day. "Oh Suzanna." He would probably run a dead heat with Wesley Barry if a census of their freckles was taken.
 Alan Hale, as Sam Woodruff. plays SD well that he is thoroughly de- spsed by everyone in the audience by the time Jacksons finger slips be- cause of bacon grease and Woodruff fades out.
 Joe Dunstan. scout of the west. is made 10 live by Guy Oliver Ethel Wales is excellent in the role of Mrs Wingate. Charles Ogle is the de- Hghtful Charles Ogle at his best, playing the part of Jesse Wingate, captain of the settlers who stick to their purpose and attain the Ore gon goal.
 Hough's graphic chronicle of the prfvations of the band who started from Westport Landing (Kansas City, Mol, on May 24, 1S4S, loses
 
 Cruze's able direction.
 In stormy form. "The Covered Wagon" was instructive. The picture makes the combination of the two impressive in measure beyond any thing attempted in years.
 The orchestra, under Orville L.. Mayhood, stirs the audience with "rhe Covered Wagon" and "westward, Ho| and lends color to the various scenes.
 The production is a stupendous one, 5000 persons having been included in the cast, with 1000 Indians brought from reservations to take part. Cos tunes, firearms and other impedi- menta seem to be faithful reproduc- tions of the times.
 The Covered Wagon" is worth viewing by everyone in Birmingham who can find the time to go-and the admission price. Matinee perform ances will be given every day this week with night showings as usual IF, w. $.

AT LoEw,s BIJOU

Lifting a real bit of Russian comic opera out of its native element and transplanting 1t into an American setting is feat which the Loew people have accomplished, and by the preservation of its native charm and mannerisms they have made of it a real novelty entertainment which is well worth while. The cast includes about 10 people, each an adept in particular phase of entertainment, the best of the Russian theatre comique.
 Although very little English is used in the act, the pantomime is so well handled that American au- diences have no difficulty in follow ing Its meaning throughout. A dance of the mannikins opens the act fol- lowed by a bit of comic opera and a dance, which is succeeded by a bur lesque on the Russian military, and the finale Is an ensemble of the mad Russian gaVottes. lnterspersed in the act is a droshka scene, with three richly costumed maidens and a driver which is highly acceptable. It is an act which is pleasing beyond expectations.
 Al Wilson occupied the spot on the hill, and his work is well done. but it is so different from the ballad singing and yodeling of the fair haired songster that 1t is bit dis appointing. He Is best remembered by his Alpine songs of several years ago. although his present act is well done
 The real comedy of the bill is in the hands of Grace and Eddie Parks, the latter subtle comedian of real ability
 The bill opens with wolgast and Grille in Hawaiian musical act, which is followed by the same duo performing some remarkable feats of strong teeth work. which was well received, as we'll as thrilling.
 Mabel Drew sang and played the piano.
