The entertainment feature by Jack Haskell has to do evolution of the dance, introduced with 1 silhouette frieze of Grecian figures, followed by the dances of various na- tions and chorus numbers colorfully done, one of the outstanding offerings of the week in city theaters. The Marks Brothers' speed in keep- ing up to the minute by way of news was illustrated Monday evening in showing of the rites for the late Major Bell which took place in Chicago that afternoon. Tuesday night election re- turns were added to the bill. The pic- ture is a winsome college farce comedy, "College Days," distinguished by in- teresting scenes in football play be- tween Stanford and the University of California. Benny Granada arranged with the THE NORSHORE The beginnings of great comedians' careers are often the funniest portions of their lives. Harry Langdon, for instance, started as an amateur in mu- sic-hall performances in Omaha. He did a song and dance act, and followed with a bit of pantomime, and every time he performed he took the first prize. For about six months after his first appearance, Harry worked his amateur act in all the music halls in that section, winning enough to pay his expenses. Then came a day when no music hall manager would allow him to enter the amateur contests. Upon asking the reason, Langdon was told: "It's no use anybody else's enter- ing, Harry, You always take the prize, so now you're disqualified as a pro- fessional amateur." * £3 Village Theatre WILMETTE, ILL.

B. Wed., | from In "The Strong Man," Harry Lang- don's First National feature comedy which came to the Norshore theater Monday, there is a sequence which brings the memory of those music hall days. THE HOYBURN With rts title changed for screen purposes to "So's Your Old Man," the O. Henry prize short story, "Mr. Bis- yee's Princess" offers a comedy treat on the current bill at the Hoyburn theater. The picture stars W. C. Fields, and the delectable Alice Joyce is also in the cast. The story traces the experiences of one Samuel Bisbee the day he invents an unbreak- able windshield, through his troubles while demonstrating it and his endeav- ors to sell it, to his meeting with a beautiful Princess and subsequent in- teresting sequences. When the bill changes Monday, the feature through Wednesday will be "The Ace of Cads," a Michael Arlen story starring Adolphe Menjou with Alice Joyce and a company of British players in the cast. THE NEW EVANSTON "Mare Nostrum," the Ibanez picture on the screen this week at the new Ev- anston theater, offers exceptional en- tertainment if forecasts of previous showings are criterion. The picture was filmed in southern Italy, in and about Naples, and permission was granted to photograph the ruins of Pompeii and the famous old temples at Paestum constructed by the ancient Greeks, which have been standing for more than 2550 years. The interiors for "Mare Nostrum" were made in the Ingram studio near Nice in France. Alice Terry and Antonio Moreno are the only well-known Americans in the cast. The others are chosen from among the best of European stage artists. VILLAGE THEATRE "Aloma of the South Seas," which is to be presented at the Village theatre on Monday and Tuesday, November 8 and 9, is a remarkable combination of enchanting pictorial beauty and marvelous dramatic construction. It presents the "dancing" Gilda Gray in her first photo-play, surrounded with an A-1 cast, including Percy Mar- mont and Warner Baxter. A special Armistice day program is presented in the "Unknown Soldier" on Wednesday and Thursday, Novem- ber 10 and 11. It is a beautiful, awe- inspiring, tear-wringing and laugh- provoking story of a simple, idealistic American patriotism. The program also includes "UpperCuts," a two reel Christie comedy, and a Pathe Review film. Bebe Daniels' role in the "Campus Flirt," showing on Friday and Satur- day, November 12 and 13, fits her to the proverbial T. It is a bubbling treatment of a splendid. pampered society girl who is plunged into Ameri- can university life. Chuck full of typi- cal humorous undergraduate situa- tions, the picture "races" to a fast, funny, finish. A Buster Brown comedy and a Pathe Review reel complete the program. PLEDGED Miss Jean Duncan, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Edwin L. Duncan of 225 Wood court, Wilmette, has been pledged to Kappa Kappa Gamma sor- ority at Northwestern university, where she is a member of the sopho- more class. Mr. and Mrs. Duncan who formerly resided at 595 Vernon avenue, Glencoe, moved into their new home in Wilmette a week ago. Dr. and Mrs. Harold R. Schildberg lof 1015 Ash street entertained twelve guests at a Hallowe'en party, Satur- + day night, October 30.
