4 Big Show at Bargain Prices

Tropical Isle'. by Arthur Le Roy Kaser. The play is musical com edy in one act and will be the concluding number on the Mum mers' program which is to be given next Thursday and Friday eve nings
 Great contrast predominates among the characters, all of whom are victims of a shipwreck and have been cast up on an uninhabited isle in the tropics. Among the unfor- tunate individuals is a show pro- ducer with chorus of six girls, the captain of the ship. a very ec- centric professor, negro steward. and Chinese cook. Several oth- CT humorous characters add to the merry making. Dancing by the chorus and songs offered by vari- ous members of the group serve as added attractions. Another feature of the play is waltz in which three couples trip the light fan- tastic."

.RUNYON'S STORY
 OF NEW YORK AT
 COLISEUM TODAY
Ric h ard Barthelmess Has Leading Role in
 Midnight Alibii'

Midnight Alibi," First Nationals picturization of Damon Runyon's thrilling romance Of metropolitan New York of the present day, opens at the Coliseum tonight, with Rich ard Barthelimess in the stellar role and Helen Lowell, famous New York stage favorite, in an out standing Characterization.
 Much in the same tempo as his Lady for a Day" Runyon has drawn gangster characterizations in whimsical manner, in story that carries an unusual romance and many thrills. The unusual friend ship that springs up between the proud old aristocrat Abigail Ards ley and the young racketeer, Lance McGowan, who seeks refuge in her secluded mansion when pursued by rival gang intent on putting him on the spot, dramatizes the spirit of New York as few, if any other stories, have done.
 Barthelmess has the role of the gangster, and also appears in short episode as the sweetheart of the aristocratic spinster when she was a young girl forty Live years before.
 Ann Dvorak plays the role of the present day sweetheart and sister of rival gangster, enacted by Robert Barrat.

DIETRICH COMES TO CAPITOL IN HISTORIC FILM
Preview of Scarlet Elm press Tonight with

'The Scarlet Empress, it is said, more than justifies it's advance her. aldings as Marlene Dietrichs great est starring opportunity and Di- rector Josef von Sternberg's most pretentious production. It will be seen in a pre-view tonight at o'clock and open for its regular showing tomorrow at the Capitol.
 Based on diary by the glam- orous Catherine the Great of Rus sia, who ruled her country with an iron hand and yet was ruled her self by romantic impulses, "The Scarlet Empress" must be rated a spectacle by any standards of judg- ment. It goes beyond lavishness of production and artistic beauty, however, in that it is one of the most gripping dramatic stories yet to reach the screen.
 Miss Dietrich, as Catherine, of fers characterization which com pels attention throughout the pie 5ure. John Lodge, comparative newcomer among leading men, scores decisively in the role of Count Alexi. Sam Jaffe as the idiotic Grand Duke Peter and Lou ise Dresser as Empress Elizabeth likewise make the most of color lul roles.

this vicinity and cuts in badly on the
few flower shows yet to be held.
The geranium Is a resistant species.
Some of the older home gardeners
may remember when their mothers
pulled up large geranium plants before
killing frost and suspended them up
side down from the cellar ceiling.
The plants would drop their leaves
but retain life until Spring. The cell
lar was the cool, most cellar of the
pre-furnace days. The method, though
of little use in the modern heated
cellar, does indicate the tremendous
vitality OF the geraniums. Cuttings
taken before heavy frosts will root in
sand or even in water and may be
kept through the Winter in a box Of
soil placed before a sunny window in
the basement.
AS suggested some weeks ago, Au-
tumn is the best season to trans
plant peonies. 1t pays to prepare the
soil thoroughly for the plants remain
in place for several years. This means
digging hole somewhat larger and
deeper than is actually required to set
the roots and placing some bone meal
below the plant but not in contact
with the roots. The buds, which may
be detected by their reddish color,
should be about two inches below the
soil level. If possible, select a sunny
exposure for the peonies.
Among other perennials that may
be set out at this season to advantage
are the delphiniums or larkspur, CO.
lumbine. pyrethrum or painted daisy,
bleeding heart and hardy phlox.
Just to illustrate the rapid change
in rose varieties, the following list
of II roses is offered by one of the
largest rose nurseries as their choice
selection: Editor Mcfarland, z. G.
Hill, Etoile de Hollande, Golden Dawn,
Luis Brinas, Margaret McGredy, Mrs
G. A. Van Rossem, Mrs. Pierre S. du
Pont, Nuntius Pacelh, President Her.

first in Spring and concentrates the
heat where most effective. The dis
advantage of home propagation is that
one has to wait year or two longer
for Towering age than if well rooted
plants are purchased.
It is a strange fact that apples,
peaches and pears of the common hor-
ticultural varieties do not root at all
readily from cuttings and efforts in
this direction may be expected to be
fruitless. Privet cuttings are often
planted right side up in the row where
the hedge is desired and never moved
Winter Vegetables.
CERTAIN of the vegetables are suf
ficiently hardy to endure the
Winter out of doors without protec-
ton. Parsnips and satisfy are bien-
NAL or two-year plants, which may
be left in the soil all Winter and
dug whenever the soil is not frozen
too deeply. In fact, both of these
vegetables are sweeter and more
desirable after slight freeing has
occurred. Spinach and kale are
frequently sown about this season or
little earlier and allowed to stand
over Winter. with the object of making
early Spring growth. Cabbage plants
are often set out in late Fall, usually
on the sunny side of soil ridges, with
q view to an early Spring crop. Beets
and onions frequently survive local
Winters, but there Is no object in
SO handling these crops except in
the case of certain types of onions
which are grown for their tender
blanched bulbs in very early Spring.
There is thus not single month
in the entire u that the vegetable
garden cannot be made to contribute
food. Severe Winters, such as the
past two, cut down the output, but
parsnips and satisfy readily endure
any low temperature possible in this
region.
Garden Notes.
NHORTLY now, the home gardener
will be closing up operations for
the season. Heavy frosts in the sub
urbs killed dahhaS and other tender
plants nearly a week ago, but, for
tunately, there are the chrySanthe-
NUNS and a few other sturdy species
left to continue the season. Frost on
October is earlier than average in
