_ FT May 21, 1927 WINNETKA TALK 43 Lon Chaney's "Tell it to the Marines" Returns to Village Because a great many of the patrons of the Village theater have requested the management to re-book Lon Chaney's master production, "Tell it to the Marines," this picture in which the man of many faces appears sans makeup for the first time in his color- ful career, will be shown again on Monday and Tuesday of next week. The regular admission fees will be charged. "Tell It to the Marines!" This cryptic order once startled a breathless nation! Now it has been immortalized to last forever in a mighty motion picture, which is the true story of life with Uncle Sam's shock troops who cover the globe for our country. The picture was filmed with the full co-operation of the United States Gov- ernment, which permitted the actors in this mighty drama to take their places in the ranks of the real fighting men so that realism might be achieved. Chaney plays a veteran sergeant of the Marines, a hard-boiled, hard-driv- ing leatherneck who takes soft white collar boys from their desks as clerks and makes of them real soldiers. William Haines plays the second lead in this mighty drama and Eleanor Boardman plays the leading feminine role. "Tell It to the Marines" is probably one of the greatest pictures of the year and as such it will go down in the annals of filmdom. "Fashions for Women" A fashion show which for lavishness and color outshines anything ever staged in Paris is one of the scores of unusual and interesting highlights 1n Esther Ralston's first starring vehicle "Fashions for Women," the Paramount photoplay which will be shown Wed- nesday and Thursday. More than thirty exclusive creations, from aviation costumes for women to formal afternoon tea-gowns, are worn by Miss Ralston and fifteen beautiful mannequins. They were especially de- signed by Travis Banton, noted fashion creator, following a search through style centers of the world for the latest information upon the forthcom- ing season's trend in wearing apparel. "Fashions for Women" was made for the screen by Dorothy Arzner, one of the first women ever promoted to the position of director in the history of films. Supporting Miss Ralston are Einar Hanson and Raymond Hatton. "Jim the Conqueror" One of Peter B. Kyne's greatest stories will be seen on the screen when "Jim the Conqueror," featuring Wil- liam Boyd, Elinor Fair, Walter Long, Tully Marshall and Tom Santschi, is shown on Friday and Saturday. New Organ for Village Now Ready for Shipment Word has been received by the Vil- lage theater that the new Welte Mig- non organ, which is soon to be in- stalled, is ready for shipment from the factory. The organ is one of the best that can be procured for motion pic- ture accompaniment and for special solo work and contains many features not ordinarily embodied in a theater organ. It has been tried out by some of the best organists in the east who report that it is one of the finest pipe organs of its size they have ever played. Mrs. Walker of Pasadena, Cal, been the guest of her sister, Mrs. Sidney Eastman, 255 Melrose avenue, Kenilworth for the past week. has "Casey at the Bat" at Norshore Monday Is the mortgage due? Has your best girl turned you down? Is mother-in-law coming to pay a visit ? No matter what your ailment or grievance, 'Casey at the Bat," Wal- lace Beery's newest Paramount star- ring vehicle, which arrives at the Nor- shore theater Monday, seems certain to make you forget them. Coming with tons of advance praise and following Beery's remarkable suc- cess in his two previous comedies, "Behind the Front" and "We're in the Navy Now," there was a tendency 'to wonder if he could do it again. How- ever, any lingering doubt will soon be wiped into obscurity because for sheer out-and-out comedy, "Casey at the Bat" is said to surpass anything that's been seen here in many a day. The star's supporting company is headed by Ford Sterling, ZaSu Pitts and Ster- ling Holloway. The film was directed by Monte Brice. Hines in "All Aboard" at the New Evanston It's a riot. That's the advance judg- ment of Johnny Hines in "All Aboard," which is coming to the New Evanston theater Friday. The film depicts Johnny as a forgetful shoe salesman who loses his job because of his ab- sent-mindedness and who thereby lands in a nice fat position as con- ductor of a tour. The voyage of him- self and his party, including the girl, to Egypt proves to be a succession of hilarious scenes with Johnny's forget- fulness as the chief factor. And there are plenty of thrills, too, when the girl is kidnapped by an amorous sheik and Johnny dashing to the rescue, is al- most married to a large hot mama of the desert. A set-to with a lion, and a succession of thrilling battles with the sheik's retainers keep the audience alternately on the edge of their seats with excitement and in a collapsed state from laughter. The annual meeting for the presen- tation of the United Thank Offering of the Chicago Diocese of the Episco- pal church will be held Thursday morning, May 26, at 10:00, at St. Paul's church, Kenwood.

DeMille's play "The Woman," was presented. The leading parts in the production were taken by Madge Bel- lamy, Holbrook Blinn, Warner Baxter, May Allison and Lawrence Gray and the fifty local members of the "Hello" profession all report that it's a splendid picture.
