FOX-"Masquerade."

Crook comedy drama of the implausi-
BILE, but nevertheless entertaining, type
Is provided in Masquerade" at the Fox
this week. Adapted from Louis Joseph
Vance's The Brass Bowl" the photo
play has been handled with a lightness
or touch and a comedy emphasis that
makes 1t easily d1geStible Summer fare.
There are, to be sure, thrills aplenty,
arising from the situation a wealthy
bachelor gets In when confronted with
his bandit double. OF course, there is
the usual m1X-up that attends these
affairs, this time giving chance Tor
some good comedy and thrills in rapid
succession. While most of the excite
ment is swift rather than intense, 1t
rises to a climax that resembles the old
Saturday matinee" serials. The hero
chases his villainous double over the
roof, struggles perilously on the ledge of
the 60-Story building and finally sue
ceeds in hurting the guilty man smack
through the skylight into the detectives
arms.
Alan Birmingham, recruit from the
'1egit," plays the dual role of the bach
elor and bandit with ease and nochalant
charm but with no attempt at subtle
Characterization. Leila Hyams is charm
ing as the girl, and she speaks in excel
lent voice. But Clyde Cook as the valet
does a cockney character bit that has
the spice and the kick" OF real comedy.
The stage show this week Is up to the
enviable standard the Fox has set of
late. The FoXetteS are as amazingly
versatile as ever, the Jazzamanlans a
hearty ditto and John Irving Fisher
masters things as in the past. Bernard
and Henri, billed as the feminine Van
and Schenck," not only walk away with
stage honors, but nearly go their mascu-
line counterparts one better. Catherine
Irwin sings Deep Night In splendid
voice and with fine effect. Born and
Lawrence are held over in their comedy
act, with their routine unchanged. but
their reception even bigger. Among the
rest OF the Broadway stars are the
Gibson sisters In clever dance novelty.
Blanche and Elliottin, a good adaglo
number. and Vera Lee, acrobstic DANCER.
Fox Movietone News, in an edition OF
historical interest, and silent news
reel complete the bill.

Theater this week. It Is a Paramount
100 per cent talking picture with Mary
Brian in the principal feminine role
and June Collyer, Wallace Berry and
Henry B. Walthall prominent in the
supporting cast.
Charles Rogers appears as Tom Rum
ford, who returns to his fathers planta-
ton with ideas of honorfentirely differ
ent from those Of his dueling. feud-
fighting neighbors. An unsuccessful rival
sutton for the hand of his fathers ward
June Collyer) challenges Tom to
duel. but Tom refuses to accept the
challenge and is branded as a coward
by every one except the little school,
girl sister of his fiance, who shares his
another version of the familiar story OF
the timid boy who becomes the neigh
borhood terror in order to live down his
reputation for cowardice.
geographically this film has much
to recommend it, for the scenes of
Southern plantation life are very beau
tiful. Rogers gives capable perform
ance in a role, which, however, is not
so spectacular as the one he played in
CLOSE Harmony" His voice, as well
as that of the other principal char
acterS, registers clearly over the micro
phone. Mary Brian has more to do in
this picture than merely to look pretty,
and she demonstrates that she can do
so when given the chance. Henry B.
Walthall gives sympathetic and con-
vincing representation of Gen. Rum
ford, Toms honor loving" father, and
Wallace Berry, as the proprietor of
river boat gambling resort. furnishes
some good laughs in the usual Berry
manner. Natalie Kingston stands out
in the minor role Of slave girl In the
resort.
Perhaps the outstanding act of the
stage program, Lets Co." by Charles
A. Niggenmeyer, is an unusual display
of dexterity and agility by the acrobatic
team, the Five Brachs, which nearly
stopped the show Saturday night. The
Dave Gould Girls execute a dazzling
colorful butterfly dance against black
background which alone Is worth the
price of admission. Others on the stage
program are Heller and Riley, comedy
team, who claim good share of the
applause: AL and Gussie Blum, Herbert
Rawlinson, master of ceremonies, and
the Palace Orchestra. M-G-M News

able to do my homework; everything

was in so much misery that could
not rest day or night. The least little
thing I ate caused gas to form,
stomach seemed swollen, gas pressed
up around the heart and I was con-
tinually belching up sour bile. Spots
seemed to float before my eyes, nervous
dizzy spells would come on and I
would have dull pains across the back
of my neck. Then, too, my feet would
swell and pain so could hardly
stand on them. Also had what I
thought was rheumatic or neuritis

many people praised the medicine that

will say to every one that 1t is the
most wonderful thing I ever used;

METROPoLITAN-"Drag."

Richard Barthelmess, supported by
Lila Lee, Alice Day and trio of rank
ing comedy stars, provides many a
chuckle in his highly entertaining sound
film, Drag" featured at the Metropoli-
tan Theater this week.
Drag" the story Of an ambitious
young man with a fair for ay-writing
and a ready-made family of in-laws,
who would rather see him confine his
talents to writing checks, is crammed
full of human interest and clean humor.
It is not great picture, to be classed

some inane dialogue, holds the interest
completely. Barthelmess plays the role
of the young husband with the FAM
lily drag" conyincingly, though his spok-
en- technique has not yet reached the
heights of his silent performance. Lila
Lee gives a clever Interpretation of the
modern girl in search of career, but
not too busy to fall in love with the
right man when she sees him.
Miss Day is assigned the less attrac-
tive role of the young wife-beautiful,
but dumb where managing husband is
concerned. She wants to eat her cake
and have it, and apparently looks upon
husband as a convenience to be used
to the advantage of her family. Despite
the drag, the husband gets foot loose
long enough to put his musical comedy
across in New York and to discover
where his heart really lies. This show
of his provides the opportunity for the
injection of some scenes behind the

COLUMBIA-"Dangerous Curves"

COLUMBIA-"Dangerou Curves"
Clara Bow. in film replete with
stock mannerisms and cliches of dia-
loglle, is on view at the Columbia this
week, offering for its first public judg-
ment the vocal equipment with which
the natural biological processes endowed
her, succored by studiouS placement of
emphasis and the personal charms
which have hitherto carried her appeal.
The picture is Dangerous Curves" and
whether the title refers to Miss Bows
curves or symoolically. TO the vicissi-
tudes which beSet her, this reviewer does
not know. There are plenty of both.
The cupid lips, the rampant hair. the
finger cheek coSncss. the simpering
pout-all are there for the fans to
rahpsodize about. which, in all frank
ness, they did literally at Saturday aft
ernoon's early show and are apt to con-
tinue to do all week. In addition, as
noted. there croons. storms and other
wise insinuates itself upon an eXpectant
public the Bow voice, dubious asset,
in this reviewers poinion. 1t may be
called effective in the sequences which
call for stridency of tone, where the
actress uses it to express tempestuous
enotionaliSn, when its blemiShcs merge
into the general excitement. But as an
organ of expression, it is lacking in
quality.
The story laid in circus atmos-
pnere. is that of the regeneration of a
young tightrope artist. Serenely proud of
his skill, but weak in his perspective
on human values, who treats with
costly carelessness the love offered him
by the adoring little novice. At the big
climax she sacrifices her own career
TO fill his spot on the bill. The scales
fall from his eyes just in time to per-
ceive her discouraged figure leaving the
lot Having perceived, he pursues, pleads
and placatcs.
Those qualities of personality and
lively attractiveness which have placed
Miss Bow where she is in the affections
of countless fans are here fully present.
There is enough circus color to carry
the picture well, and the dialogue is
harmonious with the tanbark and grease
paint atmosphere. Richard Arlen plays
opposite the star.
A talkie comedy. presenting Charlie
Chase as the "Snappy Sneezer," victim
of hay fever; an Irving Aaronson Or
chestra short and an overture by the
Columbia's house musicians complete
the program.

Mr.. Kohler, with a voice that must
have been made for the microphone, is
as magnetic a bad man with heart of
gold as has been seen on local screen

Beerys and George Bancroft. who do
this same type of work. Kohler's pic
ture of the Detroit importer of perfume

New York wights into his poker camp
Is a fine literal. eager piece of work
and one which should bring him sub
stantial recognition
There is plenty of expert melodrama
in this film, steady march about it
which holds the attention. Some per-
sons have professed partially to the
music which is part of its presenta-
ton: to this observer it seemed quite
mediocre. The nature of Miss Whites

little revue and night club queen, does
not appear to be such as would win her

must be true. That's the way of the
movies.
Among the players in Miss Whites

true-love stage manager: Sally Eilers

on Broadway; Jocelyn Lee, playing
Blossom Royale. the menace, and Tom
Dugan, as suffering buddy to De-
lancy.

ologues, moves along at quicker clip

acceptable to the audience as in his

HENRY HADLEY'S PROGRAM.

Henry Hadley Is familiar name in
music circles the world over. He has
received recognition in Europe as well
as in America as an orchestral con-
ductor and recently glowing tributes for
his success in conducting season OF
performances in BuenoS Aires. He has
been conductor of the Seattle Symphony
Orchestra and of the San Francisco
Symphony Orchestra. At present he is
associate conductor of the New York
Philharmonic Orchestra.
AS composer Mr.. Hadley has writ
ten many and varied works. He has
more than $50 songs and piano pieces
to his credit, three concert overtureS
four symphonies, one grand opera. pro-
duced at the Metropolitan Opera House
in 1890 and many other compositions
He is an American composer with the
winning habit.
The ease and authority of skilled
muSicianship were dominant traits OF
the compositions which comprised the
Hadley program presented as the sec
ond of the musical mornings offered by
Rose and Ottilie Sutro at the Washing
ton Club yesterday.
Mr.. Hadley appeared as pianist and
accompanist, as well as composer. He
played a charming suite of ballet music
written for children, called The Ballet
of the Flowers" followed with the
"Intermezzo" from his "Atonement OF
Pan" written for San Francisco b.
hemian Clubs High Jinks," in the
Redwood Forest some years ago, when
David Bispham was Pan. The theme
played was "Diana's Theme" for the
violoncellos. 1t seemed rather a sub
dued and subtle version of the char
acteristics of the young huntress-
goddess.
Inez Barbour. soprano, has voice
Of Cperatic timbre and capacity. She
also showed marked ability to present
sympathetically the two groups of songs
all of them with lovely lyrics. She
rose to dramatic brilliance in the air
from "Cleopatra's Night" Singing a
group of four new songs, not yet avail
able from the publishers, in place OF
those originally announced as the open
ing group, the singer gave added in
terest to the program. These songs are
all on themes of Springtime in New
England and were titled Now That
the Lilac Tree Is in Bud. april Moon, -
Twilight Dreams" and The Red
Winged Blackbird The words are by
Bliss Carman. Each of the four is
highly singable, within reasonable vocal
range and with accompaniment of
clever writing that amplifies and also
gives contrast to the melodic themes
Particularly happy is the flashing de-
scriptive music for the piano in THE
Red Winged Blackbird. Twilight
