Sousa Gives
Two Concerts

John Philip Sousa and his band
generally can be counted upon to
draw big business.
Sunday at the Murat he was
greeted with poor houses. Basing
our opinion on the night concert,
Sousa gave a fine program and was
more than liberal with encores, play
ing the marches which have made
him famous.
Sousa is the acknowledged band
leader in America today from many
sources. The only reason for the
small attendance is that this leader
came to town after gala night.
Last night Sousa gave just as fine a
concert as if the theater was packed.
1t is said that he remarked to some
one who spoke to him Of the poor
business, when a man is past &C
he is either a crouch or a philosoph-
er and I am not a crouch.
All of his soloists were Of splendid
ability. The xylophone work of
George Carey was sensational. He
was given a fine ovation. The
saxophone octette proved another
winner with popular melodies.
AS usual the Sousa marches were
the favorites of the concerts. Sousa
gave a splendid concert and he de-
served much better support than he
received. (Reviewed by w. D. HI

Ward Crane is cast as the sutton

One scene you will enjoy Is the

comedy assistant. Georgia Hale is
the girl in the romantic passages of
the story. She doesn't do much be-
cause she is called upon to do very
little.
To my way of thinking, 1.-THE Gold
Rush" is high comic artistry, with
a good dash of drama, some hokum
and a lot of genuine comedy which
only a genius could create.
There is no one on the screen that
uses the methods that Chaplin does.
Harold Lloyd is still another kind
Of an artist. Along dramatic-comedy
lines Chaplin leads the field. And
yet Lloyd along different comedy
lines takes the leadership. Both are
supreme in their respective fields.

laughs out of
dramatic situations. In THE Gold
Rush." Chaplin wears his funny hat
trousers, cane and funny shoes as
he did in his earlier pictures. The
same old Chaplin walk is there also.
He has always been the "out Of luck
guy" in his pictures. So he has
written THE Gold Rush" for him
self and in so doing he puts him
self in dramatic and comedy situa-
lions.
AS a tramp in Alaska. Chaplin
doesn't wear an overcoat, but just
his regulation comedy clothes, hat,
cane and at times a little shawl.
Into the frozen north, Chaplin goes
luck, the funnier he makes the sit
uation appear. And that is COM
plete comic artistry. BY such
handling of dramatic situations,
Chaplin proves that he is the great
est of screen comedians. He has the
spiritual something which gets into
the heart and the mind. When
your heart wants to ache for him,
your mind tells you to laugh.
Chaplin has carefully planned his
comedy scenes. For instance, when
he is starving to death in a cabin
with a gold prospector, Chaplin puts
one of his shoes in a pot over the
fire and makes a stew out of it..
Then both men sit calmly down to a
table and each eats one-half of the
cooked shoe. This scene is so
dramatically and pathetically funny
that Chaplin proves without a doubt
that he is the screens most talent
ed comedian. To get bowls of
laughter out of a cooked shoe din
ner is surely enough proof of Chap
lin ability.
Another scene of quiet fun is
when Chaplin takes two buns, puts
a fork in each and then causes the
buns to dance on the table.
Chaplin also resorts to mechanical
effects for his climax, when the
cabin during a storm slips to the
edge of a cliff. The cabin tits in
all directions, and after a merry
scramble Chaplin and his pal rescue
themselves, only to discover they are
standing on a gold mine.
