National" Music Box
Revue.

The Music Box Revue" opened last
night at the National Theater.
From the time the curtain raises
on a delightfully."- clever Introductory
scene, there is a steady procession OF
charming numbers that move across
the stage in unbroken review. and Tor
three full hours carry their audience
away to a gay land of make believe.
where the worries of our own world
must wait outside and tired minds are
rejuvenated with wonderful tonic
of laughter and music.
There are John Steel and Ruth
Thomas, with songs that breathe soft
words of love; Solly Ward and Phil
Baker, two premier funmakers; the
Wainwright Sisters. who can sing
about the blues and never fail to drive
them away; Florence O'Denishawn,
charming. graceful dancer; Ivy Saw
Yer and Joseph Santley, Florence
Moore. Charles Columbus, petite Dor
othy Dilley, Hugh Cameron and Phil
Baker.
A striking novelty is the orange grove
scene, where John Steel sings in the
midst of a beautiful California planta
ton, a glorious spectacle to behold. To
the amaZement of the audience, it sud-
denly finds itself breathing the delight
full perfume of the oranges themselves.
Ivy Sawyer's scene, when she sings
Tell Me Bedtime story" is a beauti-
full incident. Miss Sawyer's Maid Of
the Mesh is admirable. while as for
cuteness. nothing better than the
Wainwright Sisters singing of strut" "
assisted by the entire cast, was ever
done, and The FiShermans Dream"
is a triumph for Florence ODeni-
shawn and Charles Columbus.
1t takes a mighty good show to en-
tertain Washington audience for
three solid hours. with but one short
intermiSSion, and it takes an even
better show to make such an audience
remain seated even after the final
curtain has dropped and applaud for
a full minute before making the break
for the exits.

Keith 's-Singer's Midgets.

Patrons of vaudeville. who have
imagined that Singers Midgets are
merely automatons, going through
their performances on lines taught
them for years, must have changed
their opinion at Keiths last night
where che little people are toplining,
for a fine bill furnished most en-
joyable surprise with much that is
new, and all was manifestly enjoyed
by the audience.
The Midgets take up the latter half
of the program, opening with their
old march of the knights in silver
armor, followed by the cowboy
stunts. but from that point to the
finish their program carries new
songs costumes of the richest ma
terial, and scenes of unusual beauty.
The grand finale, the romance and
wedding of Monsieur Beaucaire. is
the outstanding feature of the pro-
gram. The details are worked out
along musical comedy lines, the prin-
cipals doing some clever acting and
dancing, and the gorgeous wedding
march to the church and return, fol-
lowed by the grand ensemble, pre-
senting picture of fairy-lfke fam
tasy beautiful to see. There was also
the presentation of Well known
theatrical stars, dressed in brilliant
costumes, and the little pair that
initiated the duncan Sisters turn are
clever little condolences and really
wonderful The development of new
ideas by the Singer management is
good lesson for vaudeville performers.
These little people will assuredly be
welcomed all over the circuit this
season.
Other good things on the program
include an entertaining sketch, "All
the Horrors of Home" played by
William Morris and family. 1t is
filled with good lines and acted with
artistic taste. The flapper brother
and sister are there, backed up by
their mother, while poor old dad is
just good enough to furnish the
money for their enjoyment. Cecil
Cunningham, who has been rowing in
the musical comedy world, is back
in vaudeville with Impressions given
in songs that went over the foot
lights with the much-coveted punch.
Cooke. Mortimer and Harvey open
the program with basket ball con-
test on bicycles that is exciting;
Marcheta, the Igorrote girl, follows
with violin solos, and the Albertina
Rasch girls present an elaborate
dancing act of beauty and grace,
Zozo and Kiki helping out the act
with a burlesque of their companions
that is very funny.

Find Your MAJ"

Rin-Tin-Tin, almost human in his
wonderful intelligence, but fired with
a consuming devotion that only
great-hearted dog could possess, is
the star at the Rialto Theater this
week and IL you have a spark of
love in your soul he will fan it into
flame.
Find Your Man." is the vehicle in
which Rin-Tin-Tin once more rides
straight into the hearts of his audi
ences. But the story becomes as
nothing, the mere mon and women
who co-star with him dim into al
most unnoticed shadows before his
unassuIning personality.
IT is story of unfiinching devotion
that begins in the trenches and
reaches it's zenith in a rugged little
lumber camp of the Northwest. Rim
Tin ri. bcgiHs his career as a Ped
Cross dog in the trenches of Flanders
and learns there the lesson of Sacri-
flee. Crawling through shot and
shell, rain and mud, he saves the life
of wounded doughboy, and when
the war is over the pair return home
as inse parable buddies in search of
the boy soldiers affianced sweetheart.
The years, however, have stricken
ner home with death and she has
disappeared. Broken-hearted, insulted
by the villagers he had served SO
faithfully, the soldier begins to wan
der, followed by his faithful dog
comrade They chance into the lum-
ber camp and there fate reunites. But
between the lovers loom the sinister
figure of a drunken brute. With an
intelligence that is startling and
love that fairly tears the heart out
of you, Rin-Tin-Tin smothers his own
jealousy and effaces the offending
figure just when the gallows are wait
ing to hang the soldier for a crime
committed by the other man.

and took up sometimes four-fifths OF

The red material was from Turkish
cloth, called balleta. 1t used to be i'm

a pound. The Navajos used to ravel
this cloth and use the thread for their
finest blankets-such blankets as
never have been produced elsewhere.

months. 1t was too thin and stiff to
