The LoUe Of Su Shong' Is
 Most Beautiful Romance
Fairer Than The Lotus Flower In The Mandarin 8
 Garden-He Loved Her

Kipling wrote that East is East and West is West and never the twain shall meet, but dramatists dc not heed his warning and in "The Love of Su Shong," which will be presented by the All-Star Jefferson Players this week, one will find that they may meet and in the meeting develop a romance that Is one of the sweetest ever told.
 "The Love of Su Sbong" is on the same order of that famous success, Fast Is West" which has delighted Birmingham audiences. It provides the All-Star Players with excellent op- portunities for the talents of its mem bers and Birmingham has a theatrical treat in store, beginning Monday night.
 In "The Love of Su Shong" the little heroine, Su Shong Chou, daughter of Tai Ling Chou, a merchant on the Cha Poo Road in Shanghai, has some mighty strenuous times from the day she meets Richard Taber, a wealthy young American tourist, in front of her fathers shop until the said Richard Taber fights and battles aside all cus- toms and ceremonies of Chinese origin and smuggles her off to America.
 When Taber meets and falls in love with the girl and she with him, he has

JACKIE COOGAN

Popular Star Comes In. Little Robinson
 CrusOe'

What has turned out to be Jackie Coogan's most entertaining picture will be seen at Loew's Bijou all this week, beginning Monday afternoon, with four performances in honor of Labor Day. Its title is Little Robinson Crusoe," writ ten especially for the little star by Will lard Mack, who has let his imagination run rampant in working out a plausi- ble and suitable story for Jackie.
 The story has to do with Jackie, who plays Mickey Hogan, orphaned son of a San Francisco police hero. He sets out from San Francisco on a tramp steamer bound for Australia to visit his aunt. When they reach the tropics, however, a typhoon wrecks and sinks the ship, taking down all on board with the exception of Mickey and a black cat, who drift away on an improvised

SAME PART HAS
 SEPARATE TYPES.
Colleen Moore Plays Dual Personality In Tria-
 non Show

The screens popular little star, Col leen Moore, appears at the Trianon this week in the screen play, Flirting With Love-"
 - The play deals with the romance of an actress, highly tempermental stage player who pretends to lose her money that she might get into the home of the man responsible for censoring her sue cessful show. Later she feigns dual personality, and it is in this assumed character in which Miss Moore demon strates her versatility. She is called upon to play fin reality two parts in one-that of herself, temperamental, nervous and high strung, and also the character of her "other personality" !" demure, shy and difficult.
 The transition from one character to the other creates no end of humor- ous situations, giving way to genuine pathos and drama when the actress finds herself in love with the man she has started out to get even with.
 Miss Moore shares the co-featuring honors with Conway Tearle in this picture

 Luck To Him

CHICAGO, H., Aug. 30.-Clarence s. .Darrow will continue to wear the galIuses that have been remarked upon more frequently than any other articles of his apparel since he has been plead ing for the lives of Nathan F. Leopold, IT,, and Richard Loeb, murderers of young Robert Franks.
 Informed late today that more than apair of baggy trousers were hanging on his suspenders since Leopold re- garded them as a good omen, the fam ous lawyer sent his young client word that he would not change them for belt. :
 Don't let him do that" Leopold ex- claimed when he heard the rumor of the change, "I may be overly super ststious, but I have always had q feel ifig that as long as Mir. DarroE was strumming on those old suspenders, everything was all right. If he takes HaeSn off in favor of belt, am afraid 1t will mean bad luck for the de- fense."
 'aTell him the old suspenders will be on the job until Judge Caverly hands down his decision, and probably for some years afterward," said Mir. Oar row.

FALLS OPENING
 BRINGS BIG BILL
Bijou Starts New The. atrical Season With
 AuspiciOus Program

Loew's Bijou Monday, Labor Day, and throughout this week will observe its "Grand Fall Opening" with an ex- traordinary screen feature, ''Little Rob inson Crusoe," starring Jackie Coogan, prince of the silver sheet, and spe- cially selected vaudeville bill, which includes two headhners, declared to be of the first magnitude on the seasons vaudeville stage.
 In honor of Labor Day there will be 1our performances Monday, at 2, 4, z and g p. m., respectively, when the first opportunity will be offered to see such vaudeville stars as Jean Bar rios, 'The Star of Fashion," holding first headline place on the bill, as vaudeville's most artistic female im- personator, offering melody, songs and charm. and accompanied by Paul Hum phrey at the piano.

There is also no lack of di- vefsity in this "Grand Fall Opening" bill. There are Flo Sherlock and How ard Clinton in "Breezes from Musical Comedy" direct from a successful Broadway season, and Murray Stutz and Octavia Bingham in "Who Is He?" a comdey skit with plenty of songs with Oballa and Adrienne rounding out the bill with contortion ,feats, tum- bling and somersaults galofe.

 The fines amounted to more than @2,600 and a number of defendants were sentenced either to the peniten- tiary or to hard labor for the county, and only one case was appealed. Ten defendants were convicted of distflling or having stills in their possession. There was not a single murder case of either degree called for trial, which is remarkable for this county.
 The grand jury found 60 indict- ments, many of which were for dis Hlling. The case and celerity with which Judge Rice dispatched the busi-

 CAPITOLIS FILM
'Pied Piper Malone Be gins Two-Day Run
 Monday

Booth Tarkington's done it--written an original story for the screen--and for Tom Meighan at last. It's "Pied Piper Malone,' which plays at the Capi- tol theater Monday and Tuesday, a comedy-drama with the star in a role of Jack Malone, third mate of the s. s. Langland, Captain Clarke in com mand. George Fawcett plays the cap tain. Malone is regular "Pied Pipel& to all the kiddies in town. He is Uncle Jack" to all.
 In this case there's not a girl in every port, only in Oldport, Jacks home town, and that's Patty Thomas, the mayors daughter. Lois Wilson has this part. Charlie Crosby (Cyril Ring), second officer of the Langland, has always claimed Patty as his girl. There is great rivalry between the two men.
 Malone is unjustly accused of the re- sponsibility for the loss of the Lang land while under the influence of liquor when on duty. Only his par ents, Patty and the children, believe in him. He beats up Charlie Crosby, when he finds him urging Captain Clarke to have another" on him in Oldport's only blind tiger. He brings Clarke back into the good graces of the community, the latter in turn sets Jack alright with the townfolk. Malone gets another vessel for Clarke and sails him self as first officer. Patty is on the dock to see them off. She will be waiting for Jack when they return.
 Alfred Green directed the produc- ton which Tom Geraghty adapted. Charles Stevenson, Joe Burke and others are in the cast.

no idea that customs in China are so much at variance with those in Ameri- ca, but he soon finds out.
 For example, when he started his love making with "Su Ehong" he soon learned that she had four suffers for her hand, one of wham held a sword of Damaocles over her fathers head, so much 50 that she eventually agreed to marry him, Fong Kee, to save her fathers life. There were other suitors for her hand, including Song Sing, a yellow man with white soul and there were also wealthy merchants who were willing to buy her. They do buy wives in China. But Taber outwitted them all but not without knowing he was in fight. One time he gets into a lacquer box to hide and finds the key turned on him and narrowly escapes death.
 But in a most novel way he wins out in the end the telling of which would only be to spoil your pleasure at see ing the play.
 Competent critics who have seen both plays have gone on record as saying that in their opinion 'The Love of Su Shong" measures up in every way with East Is West"
