It is a Lionel Barry- more picture in which that famous actor plays the part of a mysterious professor. The police dog, Napoleon, also plays a prominent part in the pic- ture. In spite of trapdoors, secret panels, and underground passages, this crafty canine outsmarts the villains. Jack Mulhall, celebrated stage and screen actor, is featured in the title role of "The Butter and Egg Man," coming to the Teatro del Lago this Sunday. He has strong competition in his supporting cast. The Swedish beauty, Greta Nissen, enacts the lead- ing feminine role. The picture adheres closely to the famous stage play by the same name. It is with justifiable pride that the Teatro del Lago announces D. W. Griffith's new United Artists picture, "Drums of Love," for screening next Monday and Tuesday, September 17 and 18. Adapted from the historical incident of Francesca da Rimini, Griffith's new independently produced spectacle is heralded by those who have seen it as his greatest achieve- ment since "The Birth of a Nation."

See and Hear GERTRUDE OLMSTEAD in "HIT OF THE SHOW" has an unusually good vehicle in this picture, better even than most of her past successes. The blonde star is able to show her genius for comedy throughout the picture. There are many scenes that are outstanding, not- ably that in which she pantomimes her boss behind the frosted glass door of the office. SIGNS NEW CONTRACT Emil Jannings, famous character ac- tor who is now working on "Sins of the Fathers," has signed a new con- tract.

Miss LaPlante icture Presentation The Varsity theater of Evanston in announcing the installation of new improved Vitaphone equipment states that it has booked Al Jolson's famous starring picture, "The Jazz Singer," for next Monday, Tuesday and Wednes- day, September 17, 18 and 19. Jolson plays the son of a Jewish rabbi who leaves home after his father has pun- ished him for singing at a cabaret, and who, after making a success on Broad- way, returns home only to find his father determined to keep him out of the house. Throughout the picture the steadfast loyalty of the jazz singer's mother in spite of the rebukes of his father fur- nishes Jolson ample opportunity to sing his mammy songs with the same perfection that has made him so popular on the stage. There is a touching scene as the jazz singer's father on his deathbed finally forgives his son and gives him his blessing. "Glorious Betsy" Next The sound picture which will follow "The Jazz Singer" into the Varsity is "Glorious Betsy," which will be shown there Thursday, Friday and Saturday of next week. It is a charming tale of the early nineteenth century. Jerome Bonaparte, masquerading as a tutor in old Marse -Patterson's Baltimore man- sion, falls in love with the beautiful daughter of the household. He wins her love, reveals his identity, and mar- ries her. The two go to France where the Emperor Napoleon is highly in= dignant. He wanted Jerome to marry a princess. Betsy is shipped back to Baltimore. There is a happy, but un- company. The picture is a pretty one, with the lovely Dolores Costello lending beauty to the role once played by Mary Man- nering. Al Kvale Coming Back as Norshore Director Al Kvale, fresh from triumphs at the Oriental theater, is coming back to the Norshore theater, starting Sun- dy, September 16, as permanent con- ductor, once more associated with his famous jazz collegians. Al Kvale, the jazz clown, defines the word "close-ups" in the following manner: a snapshot revue of fashions, modes and events. So, with this origi- nal definition, Al has prepared a gala show entitled "Close-up." Milady fair will parade in gala array, surrounded by a galaxy of dazzling dancing girls, in the very ultra-modern fashions, and talent will abound in this latest Kvale caper. ; Al will offer to his many fans a rapid series of close-ups, alternating his many novelty acts with his incom- parable merry gang who will offer the latest popular hits of the day. Dancers, singers, and an unusual chorus of beauties will flash on the stage in a dazzling array, to delight the ear and eye. John Gilbert and Joan Crawford will be seen on the screen in their latest co-starring picture, "Four Walls," tak- en from the stage play of the same name. Also included in an all star cast is Carmel Myers. The film has elab- orated on the stage play in such an ex- tensive manner as to be a wholly de- lightful entertainment. RE
