In other words, keep an ace up your sleeve I So · says Colleen Moore, First National star of "Her Wild Oat," starting Sunday at the Norshore theater. . · · 'Moore . Cl n't a foOling everybody all the time, but she does maintain that confidence in one's self very often means to bluff one's .way through difficult situations. "There ar times when we must pretend," says Colleen. "Sometimes we lack confidence in our ability to do c. ertain things ; but if we. wear an armor of bluff, we generally can overcome obstacles." In "Her Wild Oat," the First National ·Picture, Miss Moore is proprietress of a diminutive lunch wagon, but she later pretends to be a duchess, and while the bluffing is an inoffensive game with her, she afterwards meets a real duke and actually becomes the character she had pretended to be. "Very often we arrive at our goal by pretending we are what we aren ·t but at the same time working with all our might to achieve the position," said Miss Moore. "Of course, if we are habitual bluffers or we exaggerate our importance to an offensive degree, we lose our friends and everything: But, as in eating or in dressing, we must use judgment." . On the Norshore theater stage next week AI Kvale and his jazz collegians will be featured in "Varieties of 1928," a show packed with jazz and happiness. .and with a star cast headed by Paul Smal~ At's Buddy over at the Oriental theater. Margaret Fuller Is "Her Wilcl Oat," Offerina at Nonhore Nest Week Riot as 11 Waitress In Cafe Comedy One more variation of Margaret Fuller's versatility as a leading lady is the making of this week's pr~duction of the Evanston Players. As the girl from Child's in the comedy-drama of that name, Miss Fuller dominates the stage despite the inco~gruou~ set!ing a Washington diplomatic famtly g1ves a "waitress person." She chews gum in true professional manner lets slang idioms roll off her tongue 'with the greatest possible ease and in general demonstrates her proficiency in the mannerisms. of a "bi~ cuit shooter." The com1c peak IS reached in the first act with the verbal fisticuffs . of Mary, the girl from Child's, and her supposed in-lawsprinc.ipally mother and sister-who were wished upon her by her marriage to the black sheep son of the family, Henry. Stanley, another Wood son, and Mr. Wood are sympathetic enough to make the stay in the Wood home half bearable, and under the former's tutelage Mary starts to acquire polish. A social tutor finishes the process and things wind out to the best for Mary and the democratic son, Stanley. · Charles George is back as the leading man this week and repeated his fine playing of earlier productions. Rita Zane as the French maid deserves a word for her best playing with the Evanston Players. And Beatrice Leiblie and Ann Dere again proved themselves especially adept ., ·· .,,.,.,. .... i .."rr characters.-K. V. H. 1- Wfwo MablaD Your L.A ST Chanee BB VILLAGE THEATRE CLOSES FO.
