Tt has been a long time since we have seem our little stellar comed- lan in a real "Rex" part, but next week he will have a chance to return te one of those comedies that seem to have been made for him. As Jim- | mde in "In Walked Jimmy" he is, to put #t mildly--immense. This com- edy is so different from anything else that the company has ever played, that it will be a surprise in itself. A comedy of optimism, it is rightly palled. Never until you have seen this play do you really realize the palus of a smite. Do you know there 1s psychology to color? Well there is. ««.*When you look out of the win- flow, first thing in the morning, and ; it Is pouring rain, do you feel the same as you would if the sun were ghining brightly?

"SONYA MARC KLAW'S PRODUCTION "Sonya" fs the attraction which will be seen in this city on Monday, Oct. 16th at the Grand and will be limited to one performance. Mare Klaw produced this comedy a: the 45th Street Theatre, New York, last season, where it had a long and suc- cessful run. He has selected the cast with great care and the entire pre- sentation has been staged with the same attention to detail which was evident during its New York run. Mr. Klaw saw "Sonya" when he was in Europe two years ago. It was the hit of the season there, and he dmmedi- ately brought it to America where it was received with enthusiasm. With a historical background, dt is full of romance and dramatic imci- dent. It has to do with a somewhat eccentric Prince of a small Kingdom in Eastern Europe who affects ennui with strenuous gymnastic activity. His quiet life is not to remain 80, however, for his drunken cousin takes it upon - himself to ruffle the: Plackd waters, and thereby cause the disfavor of the Prince. Instead of bringing an athletic instructor to the Prince, | he introduces a beautiful dancing girl, disguised as a boy, into the Prince's suite. And:'then action starts. To turn the tables on the evil cousin, the Prince and the girl as- sume a laison, which is not the case.

The ending, of course, must be happy, but Mke the consummation of all true love, its course is frought with rough and dificult spots, It is this drama"c intentsity, combined With much comedy that goes to make "Sonya" a most delightful entertain- ment, -- "If You Believe It It's 80" At Strand ---- Thomas Meighen, Theodore Rob- erts, Charles Ogle and Pauline Stark are stars appearing in the feat- ure presentation at the Strand theatre, Monday, Tuesday and Wed- nesday of next week. "If You Believe It, It's 80," is the name of the picture issuéd with Thomas Meighan's name heading the cast. Ever since "The Miracle Man" was 'shown in this theatre Tom's name has Leen assoc- fated in the public's mind with the success that picture earned. where he, in company with Theodore Roberts and Charles Ogle, both of whoni were his partners in "The Mir- acle Man", plays similar kind of role. Mr. Meighan fs recognized as a star who is not only great in his profess- ion but is a real he-man, a man everybody likes. "If You Believe It, It's So" is a picture that will make you talk for months, You will love Tom more and more after seeing him in this, his Jatest Paramount picture. The theme is taken from the novel of the samé name by Perley Poore Sheeh- an, who has publicly admitted that the picture version is even better than the book, The picture has galn- ed the reputation of being Thomas Meighan's greatest drama, and that is saying a lot for it.
