SECRETS SHOWS. :
 ONE MORE WEEK
Engagement Norma Tal- madge PhOtOplay At
 TrianOn Extended

Norma Talmadge in Secrets" will play an extended engagement at the Trianon theater. The announcement is made that this attraction will be presented all this week, beginning Mon day.
 Eugene OBrien is the leading man in Secrets" and notable supporting cast is seen in the support of the two lead ing people.
 It is a picture of modern romance with glimpses into three other periods of American home life. Starting out in 1923, the picture later shows Norma first as a young wife of the early days in Wyoming and the far West.
 Then the action switches to the year 1870. Norma has become the mother of growing family. The passing years of the photoplay's story next show her in tine gowns of the late sos of the last century. Her hair has greyed and the children have grown but it is the same Norma of the early | sequences of the story Last of all, Norma is shown again in modern cos tunes in 1923 settings.
 Secrets" is an unusual picture. It has an unusual story which is developed in a novel fashion. And in it Norma has splendid opportunity, of which she avails herself to the full, to dis play a remarkable range of characteri- zation.
 One is hardly able to believe that the Norma seen in the early sequences as young wife and as a mother is the same person who is shown later with grey hair and in the black silk dress so much favored by our grandmothers.

Miss Semen sings, dances and gives limitations. Ar thur Conrad and company, the company being third player, are her ri:ht and left hand in providing this amuse- ment pot pourri
 ] In the added attraction will be found those prime favorites, Dan Sherman, Mabel DeForrest and company, present | ing that famous number, 'tThe Jazz Cir cus."

President Calvin Coolidge is not noted as a theater-goer. Even in the days when as governor of Massachu- setts, he occupied a modest room at the Adams House in the heart of Bos- tons theater section, he was seldom seen at a playhouse. ---....
 But there is one motion picture in which he is interested, and that is America" the big romantic film made by D. W. Griffith of the American Rev olution, which comes to the Strand theater Monday.
 Newspaper correspondents at the White House relate that not only did President Coolidge confer with Grif- filth about the making of America, but that the austere and silent Chief Executive asked the producer for a number of still pictures of scenes from America to show the home folks up in Vermont.
 When one learns, however, that

Griffith's New Spectacle
 America ShoUs At Strand
Film Is Romance Of American Revolution, Pre-
 sented With Enormous Cast Of Players

America" was filmed under the guid- ance of a special corps of research ex- perts and historians, including rep resentatives of the Daughters of the American Revolution, the Sons of the American Revolution, The Lexington Historical society, and similar organiza- tions; that Secretary of War Weeks assisted by turning over various degu- lar army units, who appear in costume in the massive battle scenes; and that Griffith used historic houses, actual battle grounds and the shrines of Amer ican liberty for the scenes, descendants of the leading families of Revolutionary days as extra people, and drums, pistols, flintrocks, and even uniforms which saw service in the War of .Independ- ance as properties, the interest of even the President becomes understandable.
 The management of the Stand has succeeded in bringing this magnificent photoplay to Birmingham at only a slight increase in admission price.

MINSTREL NEXT
 SHOW COMING
Al G. Field Organization To Play Jefferson
 Three Days

This years production of the A.. G. Field Minstrel show, the 3Sth annual edition, which opens -ot the Jefferson for three days, beginning October I6, matinee on Saturday, is the last sword in minstrel entertainment. It is enslly recognized as tho fastest, most appeal ing and truly characteristic minstrel show on the American stage today. 1t is presented under the direction of Edward Conard, present manager of tie organization, Al. G. Field minstrels have always stood at the front and this year is no exception, and the show is better than ever before.
 Jack Richards agaln heads the cast of singers, and minstrel lovers all over the country acclaim him as tine most popular minstrel balladist. His role IS exceedingly heavy in this production since the public consistently demand to hear more of him. Billy Church, the clear, bell-like tenor, also captivates hls audiences. Five clever comedians arc m the cast Nick Hufford, Harry Frankel, Harry Shunk, Johnny Healy and Jack Kennedy, and their efforts are easily worthy of the profession: To dance like Billy and Leo Doran IS an art, and their chorus of dancers IS ex ceptionally nimble and well trained As a female impersonator, Boni Mack keeps his audience guessing.
 The opening scene of. the show is on the deck of a pleasure yacht, sailing the seas, and you can almost near the waves Tapping the sides of the boat so real is the atmosphere. The second part changes to Holland, and even the tulips dance 70 the rhythm of the en' chanting music. Romance and adven ture run high in the afterpiece, which takes place in Spain. In the finale in a cabaret in Spain, as well as at the opening, the entire company, including the orchestra, is on the stage.

STEAD KNEW HIS BIBLE
Editor Could Quote Scripture In Way
 To Shame Some Bishops

v Editor Could Quote Scripture In Way
 To Shame Some Bishops
 In a book of "reminiscences entitled ''The Best I Remember" Arthur Por- ritt, the English journalist, has the following to say of W. T. Stead, the editor and proprietor of the Review of Reviews, who went down in the Titanic:
 Tn matters of business Stead was a child. He could never manage his per sonal finances, and he never tried to manage the finances of the Review of Reviews. When his partnership with Sir George Newnes in the Review of Reviews was dissolved, Stead found himself in an awkward financial plight.
 Stead never allowed his counting house to influence his policy on any thing. His violent stand against the Boer war, for example, almost bank rupted the Review of Reviews, but Stead never turned hair. Stead never had a check book of his own. Even the weekly domestic check for the Stead household was signed by the manager of the Review of Reviews.
 "Stead's knowledge of the Bible would have put some bishops to shame He would finish from memory almost any verse from the scripture, the first half of which was given to him, and the

 The famous prize ring, wherein Denny battled countless rounds during the filming of the first, ''The Leather Pushers" series, and "The Abysmal Brute" has bowed to more elegant setting.
