letter announcing my withdrawal was
addressed to Mr.. Van Dyke under date
of June 3, 1926. since which time no
one has entered the rae except dis
tinguished lawyer for large corporate
interests, who has attacked the demo-
cratic administration of this state. The
attack came as complete surprise TO
me. 1t was entirely unwarranted, and
it grieved me deeply, as he is one of
my appointees and one taking lead

university.
Following the publication of my
communication to Mr.. Van Dyke, re-

grams, and visits from citizens who
came from all sections of the states
urging me to reconsider my decision
not to be a candidate. The requests
came from people in all walks of life.

several thousands of names which have

PEPPERY LINEUP
FEATURES THE
STRAND

The Strand purveys good stuff
this week, especially on the
vaudeville end. Topping the bill
is a music novelty with five
players, drums and Jack Powell
who gallops about and does weird
and wonderful things with his
drumsticks. Right on his heels
is an act of Nippon put on by
Keo-Taki-Yoki, who prove that
Japanese performers can do an
American song dance and wise
crack act with twist that gives
it individuality and verve.
Chamberlain and Earle load
their guns with songs full of
ginger and empty them upon the
guffawing audience with greet
effect. while the Bison City Four
sing quartet music and pick on
a little Irish bum whose retalia-
ton is instantaneous and laugh
able. Kismet Sisters and Com
pany are all to the mustard
with gymnastic turn of balanc-
ing feats.
THAT Model From Paris" the
film, exhibits Marceline Day and
Bert Lytell in an extraordinary
situation; he's the son of the
man who hires Miss DAY as a
clothes mannequin. With music

the ordinary, artificial shows
of the day.
The settings are good repro
auctions, the costuming and make.
up of the actors is well done.
But all put together. the picture
does not ring true and you feel
that you have been watching one
of those stark melodramas of the
late last century, which leave
you cold, but not inspired to APP
probation.
John Gilbert might have played
the lovers role because he is
handsome, certainly not because
he is French, or even realizes the
French temperament. His ideas
of the ardent Gallo lover coin
eide very well with the public
sterotypes of what such lover
should be like, land he tears his
halt. and the dresses OF his love

Calvary.
OF the acting honors, first and
last mention go to Ramon .To.>
varro. who is suited physically for
the great role of Judah Ben-Hur,
and who reveals qualities before
the camera that rank him with
the screens greatest actors. JTay
McAvoy is the Esther, a very
appealing role out of which she
gets but very, very little. There
is. however. another splendid
actor in Francis X. Bushman, the
MESSIAH of the story. 1t marks
triumphant return to popular
favor of the pioneer screen idol.
In "Ben.Hur," the MESSIAH is
never overacted, nor is it for even
a moment other than a skillfuIly
conceived and forceful character
ization by a~finished actor. Betty
Bronson is exquisitely spiritual in
fleeing moments as the Virgin
Mary and the others in Incl

The picture, current at the
Palace, has been revived now, at
the season of Valentines death,
because it is the vehicle in which
he rose to stardom. He probably
was never better in any subse-
quent picture than he was in
this, at the very beginning of his.
screen fame. For here he did not
carry the full burden of the story
and he had a, part which, appar-
emily, was well suited to his own
peculiar ability.
The outstanding figure of the
story is Josef Swickard, as the
elder Desnoyers. Alice Terry
and Wallace Berry also are cast
in principal roles.
1.-The Four Horsemen" is a truly
great picture because it is based
upon a story which is the best
product of a vigorous intellect.

E. BRICE, A BAND
AND DANCING
MONKEYS

The Earle this week presents
a first-class bill composed of un-
usually diverse and meritorious
attractions. Top-lining, of course.
Elizabeth Brice and her Music
Weavers" prove exceedingly popu.
lar with their excellent program
of jazz and modern opera num-
bers. AS always she is charm
ing and her orchestra, headed by
Frank Kessler, adds all the pep
and zest necessary for an en-
tertaining performance.
Galletti and Kokin. with their
trained monkeys, are especially
interesting. Umtala, said to be
the only dancing monkey on the
vaudeville platform, is remapka BILE.
Kokin, lovely and graceful
dancer, gives several novelty num-
bers.
A skit, "The Traffic Cop" by
Harry Levan, Arthur Putnam
and Betty Burroughs, incorporates
some few new and amusing jokes
and some very good dancing and
shuffling. Burt and Rosedale do
some good stunts in a speciality.
THE Substitute"
Something a bit different from
the average vaudeville act Is in
troduced by Niblo and Spencer
in "a Thousand Miles from No
where" which apparently tickles
the popular fancy.
One of the best pictures yet
seen at the Earle is Her Man of

story of the World War. Lovely

There are many entertaining
moments in this glancing thrust
at the Cinderella theme. And
there are many duh ones. Clai-

at times delightful to hear and at
other times too fetchingly cum

fault must be shared by the au.

'crack wise" or not at all. He
does crack wise but so often and
quick that the final act finds US
just a little irked at his habit of

To begin with, the Three Bad
Men" are not what they seem,
and the most fastidious will sure
~ find something to merit his at
tention. There is an excellent
story, a bit slow at times, and
somewhat typical of 1.-THE Cow
cred Wagon" but livening up on
its own strength in the latter
half. Any story based upon the
discovery OF gold in the Dakotas
and having for its climax the
final rush for that gold at a cer-s
tain time set automatically by the
Government, could not help but
appeal. And besides. there is a
pretty" love tale and a band of
ruffians who are finally routed by
the three bad men themselves,
and in the end, happiness, waving
wheat fields, and a kiddie named
for the three best bad men that
ever bore the names.
Perhaps the most striking
feature of the picture is it's
photography. The director, John
Ford, has taken advantage Of the
most marvellous scenery that God
ever gave a movie director to
work with, and has made out of
it "A thing Of beauty and a joy
forever" In doing sd. the in
terest has not been sacrificed.
The actual race, between hun
dreds Of horses and wagons of
every kind and description. driven
by gold-mad mass of humanity,

could be asked,
Then there is the cast. which
somehow seems to be quite
eclipsed by the story. Tom
Santschi does the finest work,
although the roster claims such
names as Lou Tellegen, George

great flourish of glory and a
sense of completeness or satisfac-
ton. Instead the end comes
quietly, unexpectedly. There is
no sense of having seen climax,
nor feeling that the end of the
play is near. Suddenly it is over
that is all. 1t may be sad and
leave the spectator with a mo-
mentary sense of disappointment,
but from the standpoint of re-

simply tremendous.
AS an added attraction, Miss
