 MYSTERY FILM

The Strand announces for its attrac- tion this week the much heralded mys- tery photoplay, "The Acquittal," with Norman Kerry and Claire Windsor ap- bearing in the leading roles. It is said r to be- the greatest mystery production made this season, and some critics say it exceeds in excitement, Mary Roberts Rhinehardt's story, "The Bat" In a city recently it was shown at a, private screening to 1,200 people, and even after four-fifths of the picture was shown, it was stopped and only thirty of-the number could even guess at the guilty. party. The picture opens with a magnificent society wedding in the middle of the ceremony and when the minister says, Does any one here know why this couple should not be joined together, let him now speak," and some one does speak, then the mystery be. gins. The picture does not contain any blood scenes and will please the ladies as it taxes to the limit your guessing power.
 It is doubtful, if ever, that Norman Kerry has exer had a more pleasing role. not even counting his wonderful work in Merry Go- Round" while Claire Windsor is seen in the leading feminine part.
 A new Buster Keaton comedy, "The Love Nest," and an International News round out the program arranged by the Strand management, who ask that you see this picture from the beginning as it will add greatly to your entertain ment, and they request that you do not tell your friends how it turns out.

OCEAN ROMANCE
 AT THE CAPITOL

Thrilling rescues at sea, terrific storms, said to equal in realism nature in her .angriest mood an unusually ape pealing love theme-these are the prin. cipal features of "Homeward Bound" a new Paramount picture starring Thomas Meighan, which will be on view at the Capitol theatre for two days beginning Monday next. Lila Lee, who played opposite Mir. Meighan in "The Ne'er-Do-Well," is his leading woman in this new screen offering.
 Mir. Meighan is seaman in this de- lightfully crisp story, while Miss Lee is the daughter of ship owner who un. accountably detests the sailor in his employ. He is unaware that Jim Bed- ford, the sailor in question, loves his daughter, and that she returns the love. She goes to sea in palatial yacht, the command of which had been wrested by Bedford from Svenson, a cawordly skipper. This sets in motion a series of thrilling events which goes far, to make this perhaps the best sea picture screened in many months. Of course, the finish, although surprising, is pleas ing to the spectator.
 The supporting players are well- known screen artists all of whom add value to the picture as pure entertain- ment.
 For Wednesday and Thursday, the Capitol will show Lewis Stone and Nita Naldi and Ieatrice Joy, in You Can't Fool Your Wife" The Capitol Repro duco pipe organ furnishes music for each production.

LILY DEAN HART / N LYRIC

'ienna Christie" written for the sta& by Eugene O'Neill and translated to tie screen by that other lover of the sea ~and artistic realism-Thomas H. Inc&s-is a strictly twentieth century offeting. The situations" that wreck honI%s and lives today are almost iden- tieaE with those that have troubled othsr ages.

 'f2re which will be shown at the iiEon theatre this week.
 Mt for a second does Mir. Ince in h;s 3atest picture production permit his Audience to escape from realism. Eie@ental people and elemental pas sionA are the strong meat of this pow erfuf story. He has told it in a rising temb bo that bursts into crescendo of great fury in the great scene' when "Anna" fought over by her father and sweetheart as two dogs would worry a bone tears herself away from them in a psssion of rage and quiets their futile bickarings with the confession of past

FILM VERSION
 HUG0'S NOVEL
The Hunchback Of Notre Daine' Coming To Jeffer-
 son Next Week

"The Hunchback of Notre Dame," a story, the massiveness of which, the characterizations demanded and the dar- ing pictures of life, silhouetted against a background of scenic demands that are we'll nigh impossible to conceive even in it's picturized dramatization, will have it's premier in Birmingham at the Jefferson theatre the entire week of February II. Much as the reader of Victor Hugo's masterpiece is amazed and enthralled as he scans the lines. his sense of wonder becomes dwarfed and narrow in the wonderful portrayal of the story as has been achieved by Lon Chaney, his associates, and the producer, Carl Laemmle.
 Lon Chaney's characterization. of the hunchback, summed by all, yet with a heart in him that caused him to lay down his life in payment for a kind word and deed, is the finest that has been done to it's kind Faithful to the details, the grimaces, the hatred and the simplicity of the hunchback's nature, he visualizes the character in a manner which always will be remembered. His fiendish joy in killing when he was serving those who had befriended him. his sufferings on the. flogging block and his mute worship of his benefactors is said to be an epic in acting.
 Chaney, of course, stands out in the title role, but others in the supporting company are deserving of exceptional credit. Leading these is Patsy Miller. as Esmeralda, the queen of the gypsies. Hep emotional scenes and the gay abandon of her dancing is an enjoyable study of contrasts we'll done. Ernest Florence, as Clopin, the underworld king; Raymond Hatton, as Gringore, the poet; Brandon Hurst as Jehan, and Fully Marshall ms King Louis, are other outstanding parts.
 Thc reproduction of tine cathedral. the roting, the mockery of parisian thronGs around the pillory, are scenic and production marvels, which cannot be described.
 ATatinees will be given daily. Sale of seats will open at the Jefferson box office on next Friday. Special atten- ton will be given mail orders, when accomOanied by check

FAMOUS MIDGETS
 HEADLINE BIJ0U
European Act Holds Spotlight On Vaudeville Bill And Pic
 ture Program

"A Revue of Revues," the seasons greatest vaudeville attraction, is an- nounced as the headliner for the vaude- vile bill at Loew's Bijou for all of this week, when twenty-five wonderful little men and women, direct from sensa- tional triumphs in London, Paris and Berlin, will appear in one hour of won derful entertainment.
 ( Ike Roses Royal Midgets, as this aggregation of Lilliputians are known, is composed of musicians, clever gym nasts, acrobats, springboard performers, boxers and athletes as well as real actors.
 There is the Williams troupe, a very 1. important link of the Royal Midgets, while two of the feature performers are Princess Lucille, who is but two feet four-inches in height, and only 15 years old, and her brother, Prince Coli bri, two feet, 16-inches tall, and 19 years of age. Prince Colibri takes part in a. head to head balancing act that 'always wins rounds of applause. While balancing on his head, he drinks water, lights and smokes a cigarette and does other things that grown-ups have never attempted.
 Harry ,Arno, the Julian Eltinge of the midget world, is another star of this aggregation, with, Theodore and Henry Bors furnishing the humor of the situa- tion, supplemented by little Carl Stevens. There is also a we'll organized and drilling band, and as concluding feature two of. the midgets don tiny boxing gloves, and after being intro duced as Lew Leonard and Benny Tend Ter. give a skilled boxing exhibition.
 In addition to this one hour feature there are other vaudeville acts, includ- ing the place face comedian, Jack Goldie, and an act with the title. "Kipling's Suggestion" by the team of Wilton and Marshall, in "A Gag A Dame and A Bunch of Hair
 Viola Dana, in her zippiest melo- dramatic comedy, Tn Search of a Thrill" Metro production, is the treat in store for movie fans at Loew's Bijou all of this week. Miss Dana has the role of an American flapper in Paris, whose passion for continuous ex- citement leads her into breath-taking adventures.

All-Star Concerts Bringing Pade- rewski To Masonic Auditorium

If one were asked who. among our contemporaries, is the most universally known, undoubtedly he would reach the conclusion that Paderewski is that person. While there are people no farther off than Russia who have never heard of Edison or Ford, others in even nearer countries who cannot tell the name of the President of the United States and still others quite close to New York who do not know who the British sovereign is, still, the name of the Polish pianist and premier is .

"She knows everything that cannot be taught" said the great violin teacher; Professor Sevcik. of Erika Morini. who will give violin recital at Phillips auditorium on the evening of February Il, under the auspices of the Music Study club. in the course of her fourth sensational concert tour of the country. The professor. who divides with Auer the honor of having pre-. sented to the world almost all the great violinists of the present day, took Erika Morini as a pupil after she had studied with her father for few years. It was only n short time there, after that he confessed it unnecessary or rather impossible, to teach her "She seems to know how to play from the composer himself"

FRANK SILVER
 REVUE COMING
Author Of Yes, We Have No Bananas Heads Own
 Musical Show

One of the important bookings for the Jefferson theatre in the immediate future is that of the Frank Silver Revue of 1924, which opens two-day engage ment Friday, February 8, with matinee Saturday. With the exception of Blossom Time" Frank Sifver's Revue has perhaps created the greatest sen sation of any musical attraction in the south during the present season.
 The company is headed by Frank Silver himself, composer of the famous song hit, "Yes, We Have No Bananas, ' and q score of others. The cast also includes galaxy of other clever play CTS, including Stephanie Kovak, the international dance star. formerly one of the features of the Chicago Opera company; Robbie Arnet. singing com. edienne, who is 6ne of the surprises of the season, and Phyllis Paige. Violet Wayne, Dixie Lee Harkins. Rachelle de Rougemont, Edward Scofield, Morris Herschaft, Joseph Kahn and others equally well known.
 Not the least of the features is Frank Silver's own symphonic jazz orchestra of II star musicians. The Silver Revue is filled to overflowing with the greatest hits of syncopation. with novel dances and the costumes must be ranked with the most gorgeous which ever dressed a musical revue, having been imported from the ateliers of Paul Poirct. Lanvin Paquin. Doucet and Cheruit in Paris and from the studios of Alan Kramer in New York, whose recent costumes for the Metropolitan opera house in New York have created no end of comment
 Leo Erdody is credited with the most conspicuous song and dance hits in the revue, and the entire performance, built upon entirely new lines, is givn at 3 pace which knows no let up. Seat sale commences Wednesday, February G.

premier of Poland. Even central Africa and remotest Asia are acquainted with his name, his work and his compost tions.
 Paderewski comes to Birmingham next Friday. presenting concert at the Masonic auditorium at s :15 o'clock. To speak of Paderewski's greatness as a musician or as a personality is but repeating the thing that the world already knows. As an outstanding musician before the late war he was known the world over as the greatest pianist of the age. But those who have heard him then and have heard him since the war feel that Il ehas added super-finiSh. r-understandinS and teehnic which was undreamed of even then by this great master. Only to see him is to understand. Tickets for this event may be had at Clark X Jones.
