 Presents All Color Picture

"On With the Show" Warner Bros, first 100 per cent natural color talking, singing. dancing Vii taphone picture-coming to the Strand Sunday for four days only, is the most important milestone of this year of grace in the film in dustry.
 At least that is the consensus of Hollywood, ever alert to progress in this new art.
 There is not single scene in "On With the Show which i. photographed the old-fashioned way. The glamorous stage and back stage story is seen through the medium of enchanting, ever-chang ing color.
 An entirely new color process is being used which brings out each hue in it's proper value. Jack l.. Warner, vice-p president in charge of production. was quick to seize on this new art and combine it with Nitaphone. The wedding: of the two, bids fair to start another revo- lution in the film industry. Vita phone pioneered by Warmers it will be remembered, eliminated the silent picture.
 "On With the Show" with it's music, dancing, songs and gorgeous colors of settings and costumes and people on the stage. is really stun ming. One forgets entirely that it is a motion picture. The effect is utter reality. It is as if one were sitting in a theater seeing a musi- cal comedy, with the added privi- lege of going backstage with the players where the real comedy and drama of their lives take place.
 The cast of "On With the Show" includes Sally O'Neil, Arthur Lake, Betty Compson. William Bakewell, Louise Fazenda, Sam Hardy, the Fairbanks Twins, Joe F. Brown, Lee Moran, Harry Grbbon, Wheeler Oakman, and many others. It is based on story by Humphrey Pearson and adaptetd by Robert Lord.

bouleyard-and a hotel,

bouleyard-and hotel!
 The new hotel is Angora's first probably it is Asia Minors first. Turkey has a new alphabet. a new constitution. a new hotel at Angora. and the greatest of these, in the minds of travellers, is the hotel.
 Angora's progress can be read in the rise of living conditions. When the Turks, fresh from their victories over the Greeks, founded their new capital on windswept plain, al- most in the geographical center ot the country living in Angora taxed endurance. To go to Angora was an expedition. Cabinet ministers lived in box cars. No rooms were rented; space was rented. Men slept in tiers.
 Then the cabinet ministers began to move into new homes in the new suburb across the valley. But in Angora there were only khans. X khan is a place where money will buy you the right to lie down. No food, no privacy, no guarantees against odors or Vcrmin, almost no comforts. go with the purchased privilege to lie down.
 Then came the new hotel. the chief monument to a new Turkey.

CLARA BOW IS
 CAPITOL FEATURE
"N' Girl Featured in Danger ous CurVes," an All Talkie

Clara Bow, the mad whoopee girl of The Wild Party" fame, comes to the Capitol theater in an en- tirely new type of role in Danger ous Curves" an all talkie, beginning Sunday for four days.
 Dangerous Curves is a story of circus folk, and all the scenes are taken under the big top and in the circus trains. Miss Bow plays the part of bareback rider and a clown. The characterization calls for dramatic and deeply romantic work. and she handles the part with distinction and gusto that is even more interesting than her portray als of per-dancer types.
 AS preparation for the exacting role she learned to clown from some of the most famous funsters who ever wore testers motley. Her teachers were performers in the pic ture, members of a cast unit of 200 circus folk from Al w. Copeland S circus. Among her mentors were Eddie DeComa, Joe Kramo and Harry Bayfield.
 Bayfield, started his clowning with the Adam Fourpaugh and Sells Brothers circus. Later he trouped under the Ringing Brothers "big top" and spent several seasons with the Sells Floto circus. He does his full routine of tricks in the show sequences of the picture. De Coma and Kramo were with Ringing Brothers for several seasons and have played all of the large vodvil circuits.
 The teachers were also pupils, for even clowns can use ''It' to advan- tage.

NEW JEWELRY SAVES
 OUT-OF-DATE DRESS
More Important Than New Gar ments, Style Book Says-Twisted Bead Chokers Take on Color

Paris, Aug. 10. P-"Better to have an old dress and new costume jewelry than out-of-date jewelry and a new dress" advises one of the bi-monthly fashion publications here which is a style gospel to millions of French women.
 Last-minute costume jewelry de- signed for summer wear is decid- edly semi-precious in character for daytime. Most of it is colored glass or dyed flour and water beads strung together in long strands which are twisted like rope of vari- colored threads
 The blue note is new, and twists of dark blue and jade green are used for choker collars three quarters of an inch in diameter. Yellow costume jewelry died a quick death but all-white twists cf beads remain in favor.
 Manifold strings of twists of small pearls, interspersed with an occasional pearl bead the size of a pea, are the popular evening and afternoon ornament of the moment.
