Patrons of the Lyric next week are slated to have one of the biggest enter tainments ever offered at the popular theater. In addition to the five acts of big time Keith vaudeville, which is up to the high standard of the last two weeks, there will be an extra spe- cial attraction added, consisting of four features.
 A fashion show, such as Birmingham has never before witnessed, is the big added number on the bill. In conjunc- tion with Odom, Bowers and White the management of the Lyric has arranged for display of the newest and most beautiful fall and winter creations, pur- chased especially for his occasion.
 Seven beautiful Birmingham girls chosen by various clubs will act as models.
 Special settings have been built and purchased for the occasion, making one of the most beautiful stage pictures ever seen here. Against this back ground the beautiful girls will display gowns, cloaks, coats and hats.
 During the fashion show, and a part of it will be four other big attractions, Miss Mary Cowheed, whose beautiful lyric soprano voice has before delighted Birmingham audiences will sing. Ac- companying her on the harp will be Miss Louise Womack of Memphis, who is just at present visiting between con. cert tours. Darby Brown, baritone,

Tango Shoes Headline Act On New Vaude-
 vile Bill ,

One will travel a long way and then may be not successfully to find bill more generally varied and more com- pletely entertaining in it's variety than in the five acts of big-time Keith vaude- vile which will be offered patrons of the Lyric the last half. of this week, begin ming with 1fhek opening bill this after, noon. Singing, dancing, comedy and novelty all are included in this un- usually clever program.
 The headliner is considered vaude-- yille's greatest novelty. It is Tango Shoes" originated by Billie Burke and introduced by Bert. Cole. Billie Burke is producer of novelties. With Tango Shoes he has gone and done it again. But this time more so, Tango Shoes" is novelty in which. the element of curiosity and mystery must play an ini- portant part, if the real nature of the net is divulged, the result is lessened. p The added attraction is, offered by Jack Kennedy and company in Wild Oats" This is farcical jewel, written by Harry Selman, with a group of well known players helping Jack Kennedy in the fun making. Wild Oats'' is the sort of vehicle that offers unlimited chances for mirth and Mir. Kennedy and his associates miss none of their op- portunities. .z,1..
