Wy SA WINNETKA WEEKLY TALK, SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 22, 1923 15 Photodramas The New Evanston \ r-- | Adelphi Theatre Madge Kenedy is packing 'em in" at the New Evanston this week-end with her excellent showing of "The Purple Highway." It is a wonderfully enacted drama that should interest every dis- criminating film fan. One of the celebrated Mack Sennett comedies, named, "Down to the Sea in Shoes," is adding flavor to this week's New Evanston offering. Beginning Monday, September 24, the New Evanston will show Pola Negri's latest success entitled, "The Cheat." The talented portrayer of emotional roles, appears at her best in this drama which is counted among the greatest of recent productions. Larry Semon in" The Gown Shop," is the comedy feature. Beginning this week, the New Evans- ton inaugurated its winter season, an- nouncing that Jack Silverman, for two years leader of the Broadway Strand orchestra, has been secured to direct the orchestra, and J. Gibbs Spring as player of the Wurlitzer Grand organ. The New Evanston is featuring mati- nees for shoppers. rr | Hoyburn Theatre By popular demand, Jackie Coogan will be seen at the Hoyburn four days next week in his crowning achievement, "Cir- cus Days." The showing begins Mon- day, September 24 and continues through Thursday, September 27. "Circus Days" is taken from the de- lightful story of "Toby Tyler," which children have read over and over again for fifty years. In addition to the Coogan picture there will be a feature comedy entitled "The High Fliers," as well as the usual scenic and news specialties. "Loyal Lives" will be on the Hoy- burn program on Friday and Saturday, September 28 and 29. It is a thrilling story of the U. S. Mail service. Bran- don Tynan, Mary Carr, Faire Binney and William Collier, Jr., are in the all- star cast. rr | Howard Theatre ] hv Milton Sills will be seen at the Howard this week-end in his latest success, "The Last Hour." The- comedy feature will be Bull Montana in "Two Twins." "Lawful Larceny," starring a remark- able cast, will be the Howard booking for Sunday, Monday and Tuesday, Sep- tember 23, 24 and 25. Appearing promi- nently in this picturization of the cele- brated stage hit are Hope Hampton, Lew Cody, Conrad Nagel and Nita Naldi. Baxter and Nersted, heralded as "two song birds" will present a fine specialty number. Viola Dana is billed for the Howard for Thursday and Friday, September 27 and 28, in her sensational triumph, "Her Fatal Millions." Forrest Shone, saxo- phonist, will appear on this program. The enlarged Howard Orchestra Su- preme and the splendid organ accom- paniment remain a pleasing feature of every program. It is truly the "House of Harmony." THE NEW VANSTO "The Big Pictures First' Thursday, Friday and Saturday Madge Kennedy aad ! Monte Blue i in The "Purple Highway" A Mack Sennett Comedy Riot "Down to the Sea in Shoes" Starting Monday Poli Negri "THE CHEAT" and Larry Semon in "The Gown Shop" That famous cinema epic, "Enemies of Women," will be enjoyed by Adelphi patrons on Friday and Saturday of this week. As is well known, Lionel Barry- more and Alma Rubens are the out- standing stars in a cast that is unrivalled for historic ability. The Adelphi is of- fering an unusual opportunity to' north shore people who have not seen. this spectacular drama. "Hollywood," featuring more than 50 movie stars, will be seen at the Adelphi on Sunday and Monday, September 23 and 24. It is a great picture with a host of laughs and some fine acting. Tuesday has become the double fea- ture day at the Adelphi, and will be un- usually attractive next week, what with the celebrated picture, "Wonders of the Sea" and a Buck Jones thriller booked the occasion. "Second Hand Love" is Buck's offering. The sea films were taken under the supervision of the fam- ous Williamson. Constance "Connie" Talmadge appears at the Adelphi on Wednesday and Thurs- day in her most recent release, "Dulcy." Don't miss it. OUR TOM MIX BECOMES TRULY "SOFT BOILED" There may be nothing new under the sun, but Tom Mix behind horn rim spectacles, wearing the latest garb from the shelf of a second hand store, is a close approach to it. The famous William Fox star ap- pears in his newest motion picture, scheduled for first showing at the Monroe theater, Monday, September 24, in a role so different from any he has heretofore attempted that he has surprised even himself, it is said. The title of the new Mix offering is "Soft Boiled" and in it he is re- strained from fighting or yielding to his penchant for rough riding--for a time--if he wishes to inherit his father's fortune. Of course "Tony," the wonderful horse which is to be seen with Tom in dll. of his pictures, is in "Soft Boiled," but he refused to be tamed, by the demand of the plot, so there will be some of the old time Mix action in the new picture in addition to a great deal of a new sort of Mix action that is said to be none the less entertaining. Billie Dove, a former Ziegfeld beauty, is one of the supporting cast and there is a chorus of dancers whose work on the screen is said to take the audience right into the front row of the cabaret in which they perform. MARMONT GREAT STAR IN "IF WINTER COMES" Percy Marmont, star of the Wil- liam Fox motion picture version of "IF WINTER COMES," now being shown at the Harris theater, has had long training.on the stage and before the "motion picture camera. He went on the stage when he was sixteen and has been in companies with Sir _HOYBURN- THEATRE The Best Pictures Excellent Music Scientific Ventilation Afternoons 2 to 6, Evenings 7 to 11 Mon., Tues., Wed.

Friday, Saturday, Sept. 28, 29 "LOYAL LIVES" A thrilling story of the U. S. Mail cludes Service. Great cast in- Brandon Tynan, Mary Carr, Faire Binney and Wil- liam Collier, Jr. Herbert Tree, Sir George Alexander and Cyril Maude. Coming to this country, he was en- gaged to appear in support of Elsie Ferguson in "Rose Of The World," thus marking his entrance into the motion picture world, where he has occupied an exalted position since. His work in "If Winter Comes" has attracted attention to his possibilities as a star and it is doubtful if he will ever again appear except as the head of the company in which he is play- ing. Critics in Chicago, New York, San Francisco and the few other large cities in which "If Winter Comes" has been given a showing have been unanimous in their praise of the man- ner in which he brings the gentle character of Mark Sabre to the screen. "CUBIST BALL" COMES TO TRIANON OCTOBER 1 A costume ball which will be of particular interest to lovers of modern art will be held at the Trianon Ball room, Sixty-second street and Cottage Grove avenue, Chicago, on the night of October 1. It will be a "cubist ball," given un- der the auspices of the Chicago No- Jury Society of Artists. The ball will come on the opening of the art ex- hibition of the society in the Marshall Field and Company galleries. The purpose of the ball is to raise funds for the erection of a building where "living artists" can exhibit. The contention of the no-jury society is that the Art Institute is a "museum of art." The artists contend that as far as exhibiting in the Art Institute is concerned the "living artists are dead and the dead artists are living." Awards To Models Several paintings valued at over $1,000 each are going to be given away at the ball for the best costumes and cash prizes will be awarded for the most perfectly formed artist's model. Tickets are on sale at Lyon and Healy's. Lenore Ulric, who is now at the Warner Brothers' Studios filming the famous Belasco play, "Tiger Rose," is keeping different hours than she did in New York during her season in "Kiki." The popular star is on the set from early morning until six o'clock at night. Pretty soft for these movie stars, huh? But we'll wager that Lenore thinks it's a bit softer playing on Broadway in a Belasco hit. Lenore Ulric returned from the wilds of Yosemite Valley, where she was filming exteriors for Warner Bro- thers' production, "Tiger Rose," from the stage play of David Belasco. Im- mediately upon her arrival at the Warner Studios, the sets which had been built received a christening and Lenore started her characteristic fast action at full speed in the interior scenes. The filming will start shortly on "Daddies," a screen adaptation of Belasco's Broadway hit of the same name. Mae Marsh is to be the star of the production. Among those al- ready selected to play important roles are Monte Blue, Harry Myers and Claude Gillingwater. William Seiter will handle the megaphone for the Warner Classic. . 3 MONROE AT DEARBORN TONTINUOUS 111i TEL.
