OMEDY FROM
EUROPE AT
BELASCO

"Everybody's Secret" a comedy
by Attila von Orbok that was
immensely successful on the Con-
tinent last year, and that has
been adapted into the English by
Frederic and Fanny Hatton, will
be presented at the Belasco The
ater on Monday night. and
through the week, under the
auspices of the newly established
Washington branch Of the Pro-
fessional Players.
This organization Of theater-
goers, now operating in 10 cities,
provides a series Of six carefully
selected plays; acted by the regu-
lar New York and touring COM
panies, at considerably reduced
rates to its subscribers.
"Everybody's Secret" which is
the first of the six plays in the
series here, is one Of the several
foreign dramas that Lee Shu-
bert has secured especially for
presentation under the auspices
of the Professional Players.
In "Everybody's Secret" is
promised a brilliant and sophis-
ticated comedy of present-day
Continental life. The scenes are
laid in a small town in central
Europe wherein dwells a very
pretty girl, employed in bank,
who finds herself, through a sue
cession Of whimsical circum-
stances, involved in a romantic
intrigue with a parsonage of the
highest political Importance. Thus
1t would appear to be based upon
the Cinderella theme" which
has been the foundation of more
successful plays than any other
theme in all dramatic literature.
European reports Of the play
indicate that the author has
fallen heir to the spirited genius
of Anthony Hope. and has
brought that authors picturesque
inventiveneSs to bear upon a
group of smartly modem charac-
ters living in the chaotic world
in which we move and have our
being.
The staging Of "Everybody's
Secret" has been in the very
competent hands of Stanley
Logan, the English actor and
director, who is very well known
here in both of those field of
theatrical endeavor. The large
company includes in it's member
ship Edward Crandall, Hugh Mil
ler, c. H. Croker-King. Anthony
Kemble Cooper, Theodore St.
John, Herbert Standing, William
Kershaw, Arthur Barry, James
Dunn, Emil Littler, Wells Rich
ardson, Roman Arnoldoff, Jane
Bramley, Lillian Brennard, Ger
trude Maitland, Marcella Swan
son, Peggy Conklin, Louise Bate
man and Isabel Atwill.

AFRICA THRILL
ON KEITH
SCREEN

Thrilling entertainment, Africa
Speaks" an African adventure
film, win occupy the screen at
R-K-O Keith's beginning today.
Released by Columbia Pictures de-
picting the adventures Of Paul
L. Hoefler, Colorado explorer, on
a daring trip through the hitherto
unexplored regions Of the dark
continent.
Apparently Hoefler and his
courageous band managed 4 to
penetrate into the deepest jungles
of the big continent Practically
every type of native is shown
from the giant Wasara Of the
French Congo to the pygmies of
the Ituri forest, who seldom
reach the height Of 81 inches
Religious rites and tribal dances
of these natives are among the
features of the production. Many
of their customs, heretofore a
mystery, are revealed.
Picture shots of lions, elephants,
and other jungle beasts were
taken at amazingly close range.
The thrills these afford are en-.
hanced by sound effect. The re
suits are absolutely astounding
The camera men deserve special
commendation for their bravery
and ingenuity. Particularly effec.
tive are photographs of Nasal
spearmen in hand to hand cora
bat with huge lions. This is,
without doubt, the greatest mo.
tion picture and sound record of
actual adventure ever filmed. All
the thrills of an African jungle
hunt are brought to you.

What SyncOpation
Has Done for the
Sole of America
By FRED WARING
Doctor of Jazz
Now at Warmers Earle Theater

Jazz is the greatest medicinal
discovery of modern times.
y +
It has not only uplifted the
sole of America in fox trot
and peppy two-stepS-
But has cured millions Of
mourning uncles Of slow ankles
and lazy knees.
4 X 4
Some of my boys were study
ing the medical profession
when I persuaded them to join
my band.
They were going to cure
humanity Of its ills with potions
and pills.
But they found that an
ounce of jazz is worth a pound
of bromides.
Torpid livers leaped into life
under the spell of their snaky
SaxaphoneS.
+ X X
Floating kidneys capered to
shore with the tricks Of the
trapdrummer.
Lumbago victims recovered to
the tunes of the footing flutes.
y X x
Millions of hopping heels and
tapping toes spurned the CHI
ropodiSt.
Built-in bunions and case
hardened corns surrendered to
those banjo blues.
Aged rheumaticS traded pains
and whiskers for the joys Of
the one-step and fox trot.
i \ +
They found that the from.
bone was mightief than the
scalpel.
We guarantee that the mod
ern jazz will take the chill off
the coldest papa in these
climeS.
AS for the mammaS-there's
nothing like it to maintain that
school girl complexion.
] thank you,
FRED WARING.

BObbie Perkins Has
Musical Background

Bobbie Perkins, who lends her
pert self to the doings in George
w. Lederer's new gay and So
phisticated music girl and laugh
show-"The Pajama Lady"-at
t. National Theater, first came
into prominence when the The
ater Guild sponsored the second
edition of its recurrently popu-
lar "Garrick Gaities."
Since then Bobbie has been
seen to advantage in Sidewalks
of New York" Honeymoon
Lane" and with the Marx
Brothers in Animal Crackers. .
She has a way of singing init
mate songs that is all her own
and in "The Pajama Lady" she
has been supplied with the best
material of her career.

Ina Clare makes her second try

character that so closely resem-

Now that Paramount has com
pleted the picture it is disturbed
over what it shall be called. To
those not familiar with the
George Kaufman-Edna Ferber

thing like the Queen Anne period
or be miStakeno for a costume

FriedG HenapeI Will
SinU Here. Oct. Is

Frieda Hempel is to sing at a
concert at the Auditorium on
october 25. She will portray
the performance of Jenny Lind,
the Swedish Nightingale. All of
her presentations will be in the
costumes of Jenny Lind's period
and her accompanies also will
be dressed in costume.
Modern music. she says, is
all right in small quantities, but
it is not as melodious as the
music of past generations. She
does not believe that it will have
the lasting hold on the people
that the music of the old masters
has had.
