DOUBLE BILL
AGAIN AT
STRAND

"Jazztime Revue and Darktown
FolIies." combination attraction
of white and eolored performers,
swung in at the Strand Theater
yesterday and kept two big crowds
happily entertained with a pro.
gram of syncopation. The white
performers open the show with a
mixture of song, dance and com.
edy in which a large fierce Of prin-
cipals and pretty and active
chorus shine to advantage.
Kitty Madison is the star Of
this bunch and right royalty did
she carry on with her clever songs
and nimble dancing. Harry Evan
sen confined himself to the field
of humor and gave us much that
was enjoyable in that line. Babe
Abbott sings and dances and does
both well. Etna Moore came
through with songs Of the better
class and won out with them.
Others included Frank Mckay,
Lew Harris. George Rehnm and
Midgy Brandon.
The colored portion of the bill
starts with riotous dances and
mingles in something excellent

DOUGHTY DICK
AS A SEA
CAPTAIN

A red.blooded, two.fisted saga
Of the seas.
In a few words. descriptive it's
true but hardly enough to describe
"scarlet Seas" current attraction
at the Earle, starring Richard
Bartheimess and Betty Compson.
This is one Of the best pictures
Of the kind that we have had the
pleasure of reviewing this year
and Is action in the nth degree.
Well acted throughout, never lag.
ging at any time in the showing,
"Scarlet Seas" takes you to some
where east of Suez with Dick
Bathelmess as daredevil, dashing
captain of the 8. 8. Southern
Cross, who on the seas is a hard
taslSmaster and on land just as
hard a player, who gets what he
wants. Dick gives you a graphic
picture of what the masters or
the vessels that ply the Indian
seas are like.
Dick. in the role Of steve
Donkin, captain of the steamer
Southern Cross, falls madly in love
with Rose, a girl of the dance
halls, the type pictured by Kip
ling. He kidnaps her and they
set sail. A fire breaks out in the
hold and explosion after explo.
sion quickly forces the crew to
the boats.
Then for days adrift on tropical
seas, rescue on a death ship,
where the crew have mutinied
and the captain with his daugh-
ter. locked in their cabin. A fight
for possession of the one gun
aboard. Toomey, head Of the
mutineers, very well portrayed by
Jack Curtis, is finally subdued
and goes overheard. Dick and
Rose. after a slight misunder-
standing, come together and the
fade out shows q new existence
for a regenerated captain OF the
bucko type and a girl of the
dance halls.
Subsidiary attractions include
a most pleasing 'talkie" entitled
the Melancholy Dame" by Oc-
tavius Roy Cohen. This is a
Christie comedy and is great.
It is Cohen in real action and
sound.
Jack Norworth and Dorothy
Adelphi in Songs and Things"
are very good. The Earle Topical
Review, Paramount News and
Fox News are, as usual, splendid.

1923 GERMANY
DESCRIBED BY
NEWMAN

One can hardly conceive 30
marked a contrast occurring in
nation as IL evidenced In the
Germany of 1923, compared to
thato Of the Fatherland as it ex-
listed during the Hohenzollern
dynasty, when the then lmperial
government was a world power
Of military importance. This was
the subject Newman chose for the
third Of his current Washington
series at the National Theater
yesterday afternoon.
The republican form Of govern
ment such as Germany enjoys TO-
day. under Won Hindenburg, Is
typically progressive In every
sense, both in the commercial and
Industrial field, while its economic
state has been encouraging. Since
the time Of Bismarck, Germany
has been predominantily militaris.
tic. but today one notes that the
tools of modern commercial science
have supplanted the mauser no
bayonet.
We first visit Munich, the Ba-
varian capital. the city world-fa-
nous for its beer, where the
picturesque shops Of the most
prominent brew.masters line both
sides Of the main strasse. Here
also is found the great Industrial
museum of Germany. The sculp-
ture and art gallery OF old ana
new Pinakotek, and the Royal
china factory at Nymphenburg
were~ indeed Photographic gems.
In the Bayarian Alps one beholds
scenic grandeur OF aluring beauty,
along with placid green lakes that
tone we'll with the marvellous land
scape; the palace of Heron Chem
see, that fairly rivals Versailles
in splendor, and the sumptuous
castle at Neuschwanstein, both
built by Ludwig IL, and brief
stop.over at Oberammergau, locale
of the renowned Passion Play; the
home of Anton Lang, were most
charming bits Of photogra phic art.
Crossing the Elbe River, we
visit the beautiful Saxon capital,
Dresden, where the treasures of
the Green Vault, the crown jewels
and other valuables Of Saxony
are seen. Berlin, capital of the
republic, possesses a present-day
metropolitan atmosphere, much
the same as many OF our large
American cities.

tors in the art of singing and never
