pe - October 6, 1928 WINNETKA TALK 63 Noted Actor Coming E. H. Sothern, outstanding figure on the American stage for more than a quarter century, will appear in Ev- anston at the Varsity theater under auspices of the Drama Club of Ev- anston, Wednesday afternoon, Oct. 17. He will offer a program of scenes from "Hamlet," "Othello" and "lord Dundreary." Mr. Sothern will visit Evanston early in his tour of the country to cover the current season. Raymond Hitchcock, Famous Stage Star at Granada Theater The parade of stars for Greater Show season at the Granada theater continues. Raymond Hitchcock arrives there this Saturday, October 6, for a personal appearance of one week in Charles Kaley's new stage show, "The Jewel Box." Hitchcock is the comedian of na- tion-wide reputation from his featured roles in Ziegfeld shows, Earl Carroll's "Vanities," George White's "Scandals," "Greenwich Village Follies," "Artists and Models," and numerous musical comedies and revues. His engagement at popular prices is considered a feat among theatrical people, many of whom were astounded previously at the local engagement of Eddie Cantor, John Steel, and Julian Eltinge. With the show at the Granada starting Saturday is the screen melo- drama "Scarlet Lady" starring Lya De Putti and Don Alvarado. It is a story of a love that endured through the revolution in Russia while the powers of the higher and lower classes became reversed. FAIRBANKS AT WORK Douglas Fairbanks is in active pro- duction of "The Iron Mask," the se- quel to his story of "The Three Mus- keteers," which he made six years ago. Again Mr. Fairbanks is playing D'Artagnan, Alexander Dumas' swash- buckling hero of the seventeenth cen- tury.

Bartelmess is sup- ported by a cast including Betty Compson, Loretta Young, Jack Curtis, James Bradbury, Sr., and others. "The Shady Lady," Phyllis Haver's new starring vehicle, with Robert Armstrong as the male lead, is in pro- duction at the Pathe studios. Shackelton's Antarctic Expedition on Screen The first Chicago showing of "Shackelton's Last Antarctic Expedi- tion" will take place at the Playhouse for one week beginning this Sunday, October 7. This is in addition to the Moscow Art Players great Russian film "Czar Ivan, The Terrible," which is being held over for a second and final week. The film record of Sir Ernest Shackelton's expedition has been guarded in the British Government archives for the past six years, and this is its first American showing. The film is a vivid record of the struggle with nature among the grim white wastes that have held death for so many explorers recently. The course of the expedition is the very same one to be pursued by both Commanders Richard E. Byrd and Hubert Wilkins and their party of daring explorers. On this expedition Shackelton con- tracted a malady from which he died, and he was buried by the members of his party on a little island in the midst of the desolate Antarctic waste. Douglas Fairbanks, Jr. has agreed to play a fresh reporter in "Power of the Press."

The Right TYPES F TYPOGRAPHY be an art, as it is so often called today, then types of every "color" should be available to paint the picture. And if we are to regard typography as a craft, then types, the tools of the craft, should be worthy of the craftsman. ~ Art--or craft. 1232-36 Central Avenue Wilmette 4300 Winnetka 2000 Here you will find the types--plus the knowledge of how to use them--to produce adequacy in the final results.
