"Fine Clothes"
Pleases at Palace

True values. the keynote of art
make of Fine Clothes" playing at the
Palace Theater this week, a picture
long to be remembered. Although the
title in no way indicates the theme of
the story. and perhaps may serve as a
bar to those who think it means the
usual melange of night life in New
York scenes, with lot of pretty girls
in scanty costumes jumping from. a
fountain, the picture is, from the point
of artistic worth, one of the best seen
in San Antonio.
The story deals with a shop-keeper
Of sterling character. who trusts every
body and is soft-hearted. This is
played by Percy Marmont. There is
a wealthy nobleman, played by Lewis
Stone. The nobleman might be cast
ms the villain, but he is not at all
like a villain. The female lead is
taken by Alma Rubens. The scene
is laid in London and an English
country place.
Don Felice ST., offers "Joan of
Arc by Verdi, as overture. This is
the first time the classic has been
heard locally. Leo Feist's latest hit,
"Let Me Linger in Your Arms"
charms the audience.

Coincidence Tops
Bill at Majestic

Condolences who pack immense
bags full of tricks are not found on
every vaudeville bill these tepid days |;
nevertheless the Majestic introduces
one in the diminutive person of Nola
st. Claire, starring in THE Road TO
Starland."-
Aided by competent company,
Miss st. Claire takes unusual liber-
ties with grand opera, drama and
melodrama. The syncopated interpre-
tation Of Our Nell" and East Lynn"
is quite the funniest bit of business
uncorked by the Majestic. in many
months.
There is Il refreshing little miss by
the name of Lavere and her capable
partner, Mr.. Murray. She does amaz-
ing things with and to the human
eye,
The pair sing, talk, and dance them
selves into three encOres and a trio
of bows. Marshall Montgomery, aided
by Lucille DeHaven, offers a ven
trilOquist turn.
Sherry Matthews, although copying
the style of Frances White, has enough
of her own personality to make a nice
act out of nonsense.
Jarrow, the magician, relies upon
the hoary lemon trick to get over.
But it is a good trick, and the result
is effective.
Hazel Moran twirls S5 feet of lariat
which every Texan knows is prodig-
ious accomplishment.
"a Fool and His Money" on the
screen is Of the Graustarkian school
and quite an interesting bit of cell
luloid.
