- SL -¥] ih | Ny July 17, 1926 WINNETKA TALK It is a cabaret, one of the oddest ever seen. Levee erected an exact replica of the double tiered cells of San Quentin Prison, below which was built a dance floor. He called this exotic place "The Jail Cafe." The diners and dancers were locked in cells and were waited upon by men dressed in prison garb. The orchestra also wore the striped suits of the convict. When dancing started, the jailer opened the cells and the merry-makers poured forth on the dance floor. In addition to this bizarre setting, many scenes of scenic splendor, film- ed off the west coast of Mexico and on the islands of the Pacific, are to be seen in "Sweet Daddies." George Sidney, Charlie Murray, Vera Gordon, Gaston Glass, Jack Mulhall and Jobyna Ralston are in the cast. Alfred Santell directed. Johnny Hines, First National come- dy star, scored a new record the other day. He is now the proud possessor of 500 brown derbies. Johnny needed these hats for "The Brown Derby," his new production, which comes July 26 to the Hoyburn theatre here, and on first thought be- lieved that he would be able to secure them without any trouble. However, after making a thorough investigation of hat stores and hat manufacturers throughout New York the sum total he could find amounted to 18 brown derbies. Since the particular scenes in which these brown derbies were used re- quired at least 500 of them, the famous comedian was seemingly up against it. It finally dawned upon him to apply for information to the Hatters' asso- ciation of America, who referred him to the original makers of the Melton brown derby. In order to comply with his request the makers of the hat detailed a special force of dyers to manufacture the same type of brown derby that was originally worn by the ultra smart of the Four Hundred some twenty-five years ago. The pattern upon which these derbies were made was based on those that were the vogue with the most fastidious of the Fifth and Park avenue circles. Village Theatre Vour Home Thentre J. C.
