At the international geological con.

human remains unearthed in this

historic races inhabiting the peninsula
that show relations to the early fore
runners of the Malays, Australian
aborigines and Polynesians. Further

EARLE-"Lord jim"

Supported by fine cast, including
Shirley Mason and Noah Beery, Percy
Marmont makes an effective show
ing in Lord jim" a story of the
South Sea and it's islands, written
by Joseph Conrad, and shown in film
form at the Earle this week. This
story is claimed to be the best writ
len by this noted writer. 1t con
Germs an aspiring young seaman, Who
under the command of a crooked
captain, is disgraced. He meets q
rich South Sea trader, who offers to
give him d chance, in spite of his
disgrace, and who sends him to
small Malay island as manager of
his trading post there. In all, the
story makes a thrilling and enjoyable
photoplay.
A delightful blackface act is offered
by Rudy Willing and Ollie Debrow
in Fun in Darktown." The Orphan
Comedy Four are mirth-provoking in
songs and witty sayings.
Although the dancing in the Toy
town Revue" is anything but new, it
IS made to appear novel by the way
in which it IS offered. The dancing
girls are both pretty and clever. An
ENJOYABLE performance is presented by
Ricknell, who seems to have a good
time Modelling in Clay"
Jane Smith. "a Little Stopper an
"accomplice" of Dick Lucke and his

IN their act Snappy syncopation Is
featured. The dancing of Marie

marred by lack of teamwork on the
part of the dancers.

-"Manneuuin." ."

The watchful among photoplay fans
have been looking forward with in
terest to the coming Of Fannie Hurst's
$4,000 prize story "Mannequin,"
which is the feature at Loew's Colum-
bia Theater this week. In addition

author; Famous Players-Lasky, the
producer; James Cruze, the director,
and Ia Su Pitts, Dolores Costello,
Alice Joyce, Warner Baxter and
Walter Pridgeon, the actors-such
an array of famed talent should fully
warrant the expectation of a master
piece. But "ManneQuin," though for
Ahe most part an absorbing picture
Of human appeal, is not likely to be
claSSed among the years best offer
ings.
To begin with, it is extremely doubt
full that the story itself is worth the
fabulous amount that is said to have
been paid for it. 1t concerns Orchid,
a girl stolen from her parents in in
fancy by half-witted nurse, to whose
care she had been intruSted. Reared
amid sQualid surroundings, she vet
retains an innate love of beauty, and
upon arriving at the age of judgment
she fees the sordid atmosphere of the
tenement for the Settlement House,
from which she rises to the heights

spires him to startle the world with a
series of articles on "Sexless Justice"
or Death for the Murderess," and
complicate matters by becoming in
volved in a murder herself
1t has been suggested by some one
that James Cruze directed the picture
under protest. and the first part of
the film story would seem to bear this
Il
indicates that Mr.. CruZe forgot his
protest and became thoroughly alb
sorbed in his work And this fact
makes ''Mannequin" grow upon one.

Seven Wives"

An amusing satire upon the making
of movie stars scores this week at
the Metropolitan, where 'Bluebeard's
Seven Wives" make it hot for their
"sheik husband" Don Juan Hartez,
who, off stage and outside the pub
licity spotlight. is just plain John
Hart. an eX-bank teller, with a single
love and a double stutter.
The methods used by the typical
movie director and quick -Witted pub
licity agent in making a star over
night are presumably revealed in side
splitting scenes. The movie-men en-
joy huge joke on themselves
throughout the story and, needless to
say, they have put the idea across
with bang.

the most entertaining photoplays that
have been featured in Washington in

POLTS--"The Student Prince"

Sigmund RomberGs operetta, after
delighting virtually every other large
city east of the Mississippi, opened
last night at Polls Theater and lived
even in the smallest detail, up to it's
reputation for vocal and visual
beauty.
Music Of the kind that is all too
scarce graces the production from
prologue to finale. 1t also proves that
10 be popular. enormously popular. it
does not have to be jazz. The "Sere-
made" Deep in My Heart" the drink
ing song of the students of the famous
university, Golden Days and other
pieces familiar to Washington through
the medium of the monograph, seem
even more alluring against the back
ground provided for them in the pro
duction of THE Student Prince.
Good voices are necessary to the pro
duction. Nothing else, it would seem
from its marked success, is. The com
pany that is playing here is adequate
ly equipped vocally. Among the solo
lists of splendid talent is George Nj or
gan, who, as DR.. Engel, the princes
tutor and guide, sings Golden Days,
one of the melodiOuS masterpieces OF
tho production. Leonard Ceiley, the
prince, is equipped with tenor voice
and a physique fully adequate to his

KEITH'S-Willard Mack in kick In." !"

a dearth of adjectiveS will surely
result If all the turns on Keith's pro-
gram this week are given the praise
they merit. The bill proba bly, is one
of the strongest ever presented at
this popular playhouse.
Willard Mack. in his playlet 'kick
1n," has been allotted top-line honors,
and from the way his offering was re-
cefved by the large audience. he GER
tafnly deserves it. Nearly two decades
ago Mack presented this tabloid dra-
matte classic and it scored SO strongly
that it was made into a four-act play
and renamed BLACK birds" With Jack
Barrymore and Jane Cowl in the lead
ing parts, 1t created a sensation. 1t
was, in fact. the birth of crook
plays. Mr. Mack and his company
received at least a dozen curtain calls
last night for their efforts.
That popular pair of vocalists and
fupsters, George Whiting and Sadie
Burt, have a bright new act entitled
Several Song Scenes and Dances" ,"
with the clever dancer Virginia Mae
assisting. Each song has a grotesque
futurist back scene and Whiting and
Burt'S costumes are screams. But
Miss Mae doesn't worry about clothes.
And then Sadie recites, bringing
the act to a close in a tumult. The
lights are lowered and the show stop
ped for at least 10 minutes, as a bar
to futher applause.
The Four Camerons, among best of
the fun makers, also stopped the show
for time. Louis Cameron is an orig
tnal comedian, and PA" Cameron
almost works himself to death with
his dancing and ludicrous tumbles and
f1ops. A trio of players from other
acts helps out with the encores.
A special musical feature was Of
fered by Margaret Romaine, the we'll
known soprano, who drops out of
grand opera for vaudeville. After do
ing a couple of classics, Miss Romaine
sang selections from three prominent
musical comedies and demonstrated
how easily it is for a. real singer to
make a so-called musical-comedy star
look like a bush-leaguer.
Gordon's comedy CANNES open the
program, and are followed by Sargent
and Lewis in songs. Pepito, the Span
ish clown, scored we'll on account of
his cleverness and originality. And
Partisan Art" a series of beautiful
postures by shapely women, closes
the big bill.
