Eddie Leonard and his minstrel boys
one of the biggest attractions on the
vaudeville circuit. This was demon

markable entertainer, when his age
is considered. He dances and sings
as well today as he did 80 years ago
In answer to many encores, ne sans
Rose Marie" and astonished his near
erS, Eddie carries a company OF ~
musicians and dancers, and Tor AZ
minutes kept the audience applaud
ing.
The remainder of the bill is enter
, tanning. A newcomer, Zelda Santley
deserves special mention. Her imita-
tons of stage favorites, under the
heading of Little Miss Everybody,
are very good. Several encores re-
warded her efforts.
That fast-working and laughable
team. Davis and Darnell, although
they have nothing new to offer, make
their usual hit. Oscar Lorraine, the
violinist, registered with his foolish
ness, and made his act prominent
through the efforts of a pretty miss
in one of the boxes helping him out
with songs. Jane and Ginger Rod
gers, two girls from the West. sing
well. The Pasquali Brothers display
head-and- hand balancing and remark
able tumbling stunts. Wilfred Du
Bots has a neat juggling act Schichtls
Royal Wonderettes will prove inter
esting to the children this week, as
the little figures perform almost I'M
possible feats. Aesop Fables, Pathe

complete the bill.

week, and he leads the orchestra in a
beautiful overture, 1.-THE Message of
Yuletide," in which q few of the age
old, universally known Christmas
carols are played. The spiritual theme
of the selections is enhanced by ornate
lighting and stage effects. These en-
beIlishments have become, in erect,
distinct artistic feature of the theater
programs. There is also short MIN.
in which the most popular man OF
the hour, old Santa himself, shows
how he visits the homes of good chill
dren to Ali their little hearts with JOY.
This is an Interpretation of Clement
c. Moore's immortal THE Night Be

The screen feature is Marshall

Bronson and Lawrence Gray and sup
ported by an excellent cast, when IN

be a romance for the little one when
grown up, and that is provided by
Betty and Lawrence Gray.
Dancing, syncopation, singing and
comedy are included in the stage
presentation of Joe Rea and his Cali

EARLE-Eddie FOy.

The Earle's Christmas week bill is
headlined by Eddie Foy, that well
known comedian of musical comedy
and vaudeville. Although getting
along in years and not quite so spry,
Eddie hands out q good many laughs.
He brings an entertaining little play
let of night life on Broadway, and his
supporting company is good.
Headlining with Foy is Lottie Mayer
and her disappearing water ballet,
featuring the JantZen girl, original
model for the bathing girl poster. The
act, outside of the mystifying diSap-
pearing ballet girls, embraces some
fancy diving This is about the best
of the water acts seen here in a long
time. A novelty act is presented by
Lee Kicks, 1.-The Enchanted Forest. y
The stage and house are darkened and
grotesque figures, beautifully lighted,
caper about the stage. There are box
ing frogs, dancing ostriches and nu-
merouS other figures. Bob Hall, billed
as that extemporaneous chap,
scores quite a hit with the audience
with his made-to-order songs. He COM
poses his songs as he goes along, sing
ine about the audience and different
national topics. Lester and Stuart
present Bound for Nowhere" an act
of comedy, song and dance. The best
of their offering is the dances.
The feature photoplay this week is
West of Broadway" a comedy ro-
nance starring Priscilla Dean, with a
good supporting cast. 1t is a typical
Dean picture, full of action and
comedy.

GAYETY-"White Cargo"

Earl CAROLS white Cargo has
returned here for a weeks engage
ment at the Gayety Theater. The
story is the well known one of a white
man in the hot, merciless southern
land. Christine Cooper is Tondeleyo
and Joseph Forte, the man who comes
out to the coast with the intention of
staying white But he marries the
haaf-breed girl. Maurie Morris plays
the part Of the doctor. William Mar
BILE is the missionary and Robert
Burns is Witzel. Others in the cast
include Tom Jones, Denny Mullen,
John c. Louden, Edward Hudson and
Punghi Bunda- The play has but one
scene, the curtain being lowered to
denote the passing of time. The act
ing is especially good, the company
well selected and the staging, above
the ordinary.

STRAND-'Steppin' in Society,".

The eight-scened production, "Step-
pin in Society," the feature of this
weeks bill at the Strand Theater, be-
sides a host Of pretty girls, handsome
costumes and attractive settings, has
a little bit of everything needed to
make an interesting and enjoyable at
traction. There is a bit of comedy
and a bit of pathos, with songs,
dances and breezy dialogue, as well
as a brace of busy comedians.
1t is a toss-up as to the merits of
the sketch, 1.-THE General" and its
companion piece, THE Apartment
House." In the former a beautiful
spy vamps a general and his staff,
and in the latter a wife and a victrola
get sick at the same time u different
apartments. but the man1to fix the
musical instrument gets into the other
apartment, with comical consequences.
'Upstage," with Norma Shearer as
it's star, is the photoplay attraction.
1t is all about a, small town girl who
goes to New York, makes a hit on the
stage, gets the swelled head and runs
wild until she is awakened by a
tragedy.
THE Evolution Of Dixie by the
orchestra shows what can be done
with that ever popular melody. All
in all, the Strand provides a pleasant
Christmas week entertainment.
