Their vaudeville act and es-
pecially made film show them do
ing what they intend to do when
they are on the stage" AT the end
of the picture Nick Stuart tells Sue
not to come on until he makes the
audience laugh.
When the audience is laughing
Miss Carol enters. There is a cross
fire of conversation, songs and
dances.
Joe Termini, billed as THE Som
nolent Methodist" is the second fea-
ture of the stage bill. He proceeds
with his work in a nonchalant,
sleepy, lazy manner, which accounts
for his title.
Termini is, however, n of the
most proficient musicians and COM
edians in vaudeville today. He
plays the guitar, the violin and the
banjo. He plays all three of them
seriously and comically, in fact, it is
said, that there is as much mirth as
music in his stunning and bowling.
In Wrong" a dancing revue in
terwoven in a mystery melodrama
turned to a good comedy account,
is the third important stage fea-
ture. The scene opens with a bur-
glar stealthily looking for some
thing to burgle. He proves, how
ever, to have no more serious intent
than to introduce the various MEM
bers of the cast of the revue, who
r Jean Hamilton, Ruth De Quin-
cey, Bob Wolf, Charles Davis, Bill
Swan and Charles Maupin.
Next in mention are the Harring-
ton sisters, who look like a couple
of children and dress accordingly.
They are harmony singers.
The Three La Moures offering an
athletic novelty and the comedy
juggling of Richard Wally complete
the stage bill.

1t Might Be English

Nils Asther, Swedish actor ap-
pearing with Joan Crawford in
Lefty Lynton" at the Metro-G Gold
wyn-Mayer studios, often wears a
monocle. Sometimes, people tell
him it looks English. Whereupon
Nils insists that monocles were
worn in Sweden long before they
were heard of in London-that in
fact it's just an old English custom
that's really Swedish.
