upon its second weeks run at the
Columbia Theater yesterday. The
film. depicting the times of Louis XI
as the vehicle for a love story in
volving the monarch's ward and
Francois VilIon, poet of the streets
who became the kings friend, proved
again that it is a production of merit.
Humor pervades the piece and Barry.

Conrad Veidt, a German, enhances
the film with his Interpretation Of

off the massive medieval structures

over by reason of their popularity
and they deserve all the praise that
has been given them.
In THE Demi- Bride" one finds food
for thought. Some may see in it
merely the natural mistakes of an
innocent convent maid, who. knowing
naught of this world, idealizes a Paris
ian roue and claims him for her
"hero." Others will read between the
lines-and between the fitting eX
pressions of Criquette's childish
face--and will venture a guess that
the little miss is wiser than she seems.
The delightful part of the play is the
cleverness with which the author
leaves the audience guessing as to just
how much petite Criquette knows
about her mama's affairs and those
of her Prince Charming. Miss Shearer
has proved herself an exceptional
artist in her enigmatic Interpretation
of the role of Criquette.
The program is rounded out with
the usual house features, including
topical news and popular overture,

This is National Vaudeville Artists
week at Keiths, as it is all over the
country, and a good program has been
arranged with that popular comedian,
RAYMOND Hitchcock, acting as master
of ceremonies. He started work Dy
acting as a reception committee or
one in the lobby, greeting customers
with a hearty good evening, and later
ascended the stage and introduced the
different acts.
A dancing act by Gracella and Theo-
dore is magnificently staged. The per-
formers are dancers of the very first
class. Both the Indian and MOORISH
numbers are beautiful to look at and
the costumes appropriate though
sparse.
Eva Clark sang several classic songs
with splendid effect, bringing out the
full range of her beautiful voice, but
she was most liked when rendering
the latest popular ballads. A half dozen
curtain calls rewarded her offerings.
A laughing hit was furnished by
Jay Flippin, blackface comedian, with
many new jokes and songs.
A comedy sketch by Edwin Burke,
entitled Envy gave Arthur Ayls-
worth & Co.. many opportunities. MIR.
Avlsworth is one of our best char
actr actors, and, as the average fell
low. gained much applause for de-
picting the truthful husband. Helen

honors with the star.
Claude De Carr & Co. opened the
bill with a clever acrobatic act; Ray
mond Eiseman followed with a song
and dance that pleased; Johannes Jo-

sketch, ''The Pioneer" in which he
displays unusual agility and strength;
