posed to the screen in "'The Keep

Porter's most recent work which
appeared serialIy in MeCalI's
Magazine. Doubleday Page & Co.
have just put the bool, on the
market, and the publishers esti-
mate that more Chan ten million
persons have already found the
story as fascinating as only a
novel by the late Mrs. Porter
could be. In addition to its ire
mendous popularity, '"The Keeper
Of the Bees" has as one Of its
stars an eleven year old girl who
has never before been seen in
pictures, and who probably never
will be again, despite the fact that
she is bound to make aStremendous
hit. Gene Stratton Monroe, grand
daughter Of the noted novelist, en-
acts the part Of Little Scout
the role which inspired her cele-
brated grandmother to write the
story originally. So when she
steals" the picture from more
experienced members Of a fine
cast, it is only proper; for 1.-THE
Keeper of the Bees" is her prop
erty anyway. The production,

VALENTINO FILM
STILL DRAWING
HEAVILY

Rudolph Valentino continues for
a second week at the Columbia
Theater, attracting capacity crowds
to his last picture, "The Son of
the Sheik." His prowess as the
greatest and most romantic lover
of the screen is capably displayed
in this story by E. NJ. Hull. In
a play filled with colorfuT set
tings and dramatic scenes, the
handsome screen idol is most sat
isfying. His characteristic charm
and personality is marvellous.
Wilma Banky, too, is delightful
as the desert dancer and cap
tivates the sheik (and the au-
dience) with her remarkable
beauty. Though the perturbation
deviates unnecessarily from the
novel, it is nevertheless, engross-
ing.
Leon Brusilof has arranged an
atmospheric musical score which
is a decided feature of the per-
Torrance, while the overture,
Musical Memories OF Valentino"
likewise carries out the theme
and also recalls many of his
former successes.-H. X.

IMPROVISED ART
AT KETTH'S GOES
OVER BIG

z One scheduled act apparently
did not show up for the regular
Keith's program this week. The
lapse necessitated the gathering
together OF a maieshift act to
make the program fulf~ one.
Jean Bedini, the veteran gentle
man juggler, was called upon.
He sought and won the CO.
operation of his fellow artists,
and the result was a gathering
of odds and ends that brought
Variety to an otherwise stereo-
typed program.
Hello -Goodby, a Laughter.
Piece Revue was the title, and
the spontaneity and good spirits
which inspired the actors won the
audience to them more than their
routine performances earlier in
the program.
The leads in this impromptu
revue were taken by Irene
Ricardo, Frank Hurst and Eddie
Kogt, with Mr.. Bedini acting as
general manager and introducer.
# was clear, as he had said, that
the revue was literally thrown
together on extremely short no.
-tice earlier in the afternoon. But
this precise fact helped more than
it hurt, since the square edges
of the various pieces contributed
to the laughter more than the
''old gags which were used.
Sessue Hayakawa appeared in
person." and that's about all that
can be said. The cinema star
had for his vehicle the usual
thin, melodramatic plot - which
the stars use for vaudeville skits
when cashing in on their free
time between pictures. The Deco.
.aentafized Oriental did not appear
the sinister figure he purported
to be, with his Harvard accent
and urbane air OF nonchalance.
WlthaI he won the applause of
those who had admired him in
his true medium, the silver screen.
