&Comprehensive study Of the

Big Euent

The tremendous success of THE
Trial of Mary Dugan" has pre-
coded its appearance at English's
week Feb. IL, and this thrilling
Bayard WELLER courtroom melo-
drama is therefore assured hearty
welcome.
With a years run on Broadway
behind it, and with the unparalleled
record of simultaneous productions
in London. Berlin, Paris and other
European centers as proof of its
universal appeal, 1t is a foregone
conclusion that the local engage
ment will be profitable one for
its producer. A. H. Woods.
1.-THE Trial of Mary Dugan" is
full of novel effects. the most start
ling of which is the absence of a
curtain, the use of which is entirely
eliminated before and during the
play and as the sleeves of trick
performer are rolled back to show
there is rsothing concealed, so is the
stage setting exposed as the audi
ence takes its seat.

prominent when the Christus has
been betrayed and in company with
the other high priests, appears be-
fore PLATE and King HerodI de-
nanding the death sentence Of the
Nazarene.
The opening of the F'reiberg PAS
sion Play" has two brief tableaux.
one depicts Adam and Eve being
driven from the Garden of Para
disc by the Angel Gabriel, and the
other the Qualification of the
Cross.
Then in proper form, this massive
production opens with the Christus,
as a grown man, entering the city
of Jerusalem, amid the rejoicing Of
the pOpulace. From Jerusalem, the
Christus goes to Bethany to visit
friends and to prepare for the Pass
over The high priests and the
scribes, in the meantime, alarmed
over the following and teaching of
the Man of Galilee, seeks ways and
means to rid their kingdom of the
menace. The scene reverts back to
Bethany, where the ChriStus says
farewell to his mother and friends
and returns to Jerusalem with his
disciples.
1t is in this city that Judas is
approached by the high priests and
the plan preached for the betrayal,
the Pharisees and Scribes urging
Judas not to delay in the matter.
Judas joins the disciples to par
ticipate in the Last Supper. one
of the most beautiful and poignant
scenes ever witnessed on the stage.
When the .ChristuS has broken
bread with the disciples he goes to
the Garden of Gethsemane, there
to pray for aid Of his Father, and
there to be betrayed by Judas, who
has brought with him the Roman
soldiers and high priests.
The ChriStuS is taken before the
high priests who condemn His

the high priests, pleading for the
relase of the ChristuS and suffering
the tortures of the damned. He Is
scorned and laughed at by the high
Priests, whose tool he was, and he
is ordered from the temple. 1t is
here, that Georg Fassnacht, reaches
a climax of the most dramatic act
ing, and the horror and disgust that
has been aroused in the mind and
heart of the spectator, is rapidly
changed to that of sorrow for the
man who was so weak as to betray
the Master.
With the death sentenced an
nounced, and Barrabas free, the
long march to Golgotha begins,
with the Christus, scourged and
crowned and the heavy cross on
His shoulders.

Lucky Boy

Lucky Boy the Tiffany-Stahl
super special production starring
George Jessel in his first singing and
talking production, has been &C.
claimed by reviewers and critics as a
triumph for George JeSSel and for
the producers of the picture.
At previews held in several parts
of the country, the consensus of
opinion has been that Jessel gives a
remarkable demonstration of his
dramatic qualities on the screen and
will prove a sensation wherever
shown.
Jessel was the original "Jazz
Singer" on the stage and was sup
posed to play it on the screen. Re
viewers state, after seeing Jessel In
his latest and best screen produce
ton, that it places him on plane
far greater than any other star has
achieved at the present time.
The picture is soon to be released
throughout the country in the lead
ing theaters of every large city.

,1laygoers are urged to be in their

Mr.. ArliSS first came to America
in 1901 with Mrs. Patrick Campbell,
when he made an immediate success
as Cayley Drummle in 1.-THE Second

remain here to act Sakkuri in The,
Darling of the Gods" with Blanche
Bates.
AS he tells so amusingly in his
autobiography, "Up the Years From
Bloomsbury" each of the succeed
ing seasons he determined to return
to England, but each time he was
persuaded to remain in America
until it became evident that his POI
Sition on the American stage was
becoming such that it was only =
question Of time when he would be
a star IN the American theater.
Playgoers recall his Disraeh which
he acted five years, and his Raiah
of Rukh in 1.-THE Green Goddess"
which was followed by "Old Engs
lish."'
To act Shylock always has been
one of his ambitions. Unusual inter-
est attaches to his first appearance
here in this role. Winthrop Ames

including the Gilbert and Sullivan
operas.

Passion Play" ever produced, the
original Freiburg Passion Play

nacht, will be presented to the peo-
pie of Indianapolis and the sur

formances will begin promptly at 8
o'clock and the afternoon presenta-
tions at 2 O'Clock.
Unique in the annals of the the
atrical and dramatic world, are the
portrayal of two distinct types of
characters in this world famous
drama. Adolph Fassnacht, as the
ChristuS, in a role that is sublime,
majestic and dignified, while his
brother Georg, as the Judas, gives
a rendition of the crafty, Shrewd
and intriguing disciple.
Among the other members of the
company, who assist in this gor-
geous and magnificent spectacle, are
noted men and women of Europe
who have spent their life in the
Passion Play" work.
One of the roles, that is almost
equally histrionic to that of Judas.
is Dathan, a high priest, charac-
terized by Willie Erhardt, who IS
well known in Europe. Erhardt has
had years of experience on tht,
stage and has been acting the part
Of Dathan for more than ten years.
He has, also, on a moments no.

ALL-TALKER ON
VIEW AT CIRCLE

The Circle theater beginning to-
day offers another all-talking pro-
duction.
It is Doctors Secret" released
by Paramount and starring Ruth
Chatterton, H. B. Warner, john
Loder, and Robert Edeson. The
story is from the famous play Half
an Hour" by Sir James M. Barrie.
Doctors Secret Is che second all
talker produced by Paramount and
this story was selected as the most
suitable to follow Interference, -
which was shown at the Circle three
weeks ago. It also was an all-talker.
The latest of the takers shows
improvement over even Interior
ence" from a technical point of view
and is an outstanding and i'm
presSive example of the progress
that is being made in this field.
Each of the characters in Doctors
Secret" are heard plainly in con-
versation at all times and they do
not give the appearance of talking for
the benefit of the miorophones.
The story is an unusual one and is
likely to linger in ones memory for
some time. This is due to the fact
that all action takes place within
a period of thirty 'inutes. but the
hand of fate does much within this
brief space of time. An interesting
observation is the fact that the most
violent of emotions are concealed
beneath the pc 'iteness of English
sc~ial intercourse.
Dessa Byrd plays an organ solo.
Several talking short subjects along
with a sound news reel are other at
fractions of the bill opening this
week.

DRUGGIST PICKS REM

Explains why he
chooses il

Mr.. A. Matera, Jr., is a druggist
at 1886 Baxter Ave-, Elrahurst,
n. Y, and has a whole storeful of
various remedies at his disposal.
Therefore it is interesting and
significant that he chooses REM
when he himself has a cough. Mr..
Matera says: rem is a very
good expectorant, loosens the
phlegm in the throat, soothes the
tissues, and promptly checks the
coughing" This prompt action
of REM is partly due to a special
Ingredient not found in ordinary
cough remedies. Though harmless
itself, it helps produce the quick
soothing effect so noticeah lie

give children because they like
to take it, and I've noticed that
it always does all that is claimed

TRAINMAN SPEEDS Relief
TO HIS OWN COUGH!
Finds REM route
fastest way

Mr.. F. ". Clifford of TIA Frank
lin St., Portland, Maine, is a
trainman on the Maine Central,
and railroading in Maine in the
winter is no easy job. One winter
while working on a freight train,
he caught a very bad cough. He
tried first one thing for it, then
another---but without any
results. Then he dropped in at
Hollands Drug Store at Oxford
and Mayo SITS, and asked them
to recommend a good cough
remedy. The druggist suggested
REM and Mr.. Clifford reports,
I'm glad to say it relieved my
cough in a short time" REM's
quick action in relieving a cough
has delighted thousands. 1t is
due, in part, to the fact that it
clings to your throat and spreads
a soothing, healing film, bringing
quicker relief. Find that out for
yourself!

MARY'S Mother Finally
finds right THING
Relieves obstinate
cough with REM

After Mary Mullins of 1852 s.
Pearl ST., Albany, N. Y, re-
covered from whooping cough,
she had trouble with bronchial
coughs from time to time. Her
mother tried various things to
relieve her, but didn't get on the
right track until she asked a clerk
in Gaus' Drug Store at Pearl and
Westerlo about REM. He said
it was good for children as well
as grown-ups, and Mrs. Mullins
bought a bottle. REM relieved
Mary's cough at once and she
got a good night s.sleep-the first
for several nights. Mrs. Mullins
is convinced that "REM is a
great remedy for coughs -and
that's what it is. REM isn't a
''cure-all." It's not good for any,
thing but a cough-but how re-
markedly good it is for that!
Be sure to ask for REM.
