"."f"’"“'.j"'.— S A S e - “SCRAMBLED WIVES” AT REX THURSDAY AND FRIDAY Miss Marguerite Clark has selected for her first independent film produc- tion the comedy, “Scrambled Wives,” one of the Broadway successes of last season. In thils vehicle, which is re- leased by Associated First National Pictures, Inc. ,she comes to the Rex theater for an engagement of two days, commencing Thursday. Miss Clark plays the part of Mary Lucile Smith, a young girl who thinks she has a ‘“dark and terrible past” to hide. The secret kn her life is that as a result of a perfectly innocent boarding school escapade, she had been rushed into a marriage with a boy whom she scarcely knew. Luckily sha was rescued from this embaras- sing situation almost before the cere- mony was completed. The marriage was quietly annuller, and Mary Lu- cile packed off to Europe to forget her mad prank. Comming back, she. fallg in love with Larry MoLeod. It i§ a desperata casg of love at first sight on both sides, Mary Lucile conceals her past from Larry and ac- cepts an invitation to a house party at his sister’s house. 'Who should turn up among the guests but her ex- husband, now more or less happily married to a pretty and jealous young woman. Complications begin the mo- ment Mary Lucile crosses the thresh old of the country house, and the tangle of misunderstanding goes on from one laughable scene to another, endling in a climax of rapid-fire com- edy. Incidentally, there are settings of great beauty throughout the pic- ture, including a ballroom scene in'a country house, and nd little oppor- tunity for the display of Miss Clark’s skill ‘as an actress in which Mary Lucile passes on her way to happiness. It is the kind of pant in which Miss Clark ‘has made her greatest success and endeared herself to millions of devotees of the screen. “QUT OF THE CHORUS” AT THE GRAND WEDNESDAY One ‘nyght the crowded audience off the Winter Palace Revue missed the-dainty, pretty-faced, high-kicking member of the chorus in the front row right. She ,had said good-bye to Broadway, and taken up her abode on Fifth Avenue as the wife of Ross Van Beekman of The Van Beekman's. [From that moment to the last flicker of the film you have a story of swhft action, mystery, and thrill- ing drama. “Out of the Chorus” is the most powerful vehicle which ‘Alice Brady has yet starred, and will be shown together with “Playmates” a riotious comedy in two parts at the Grand theater, Wednesday and Thursday. “THE TOMBOY” AT THE REX TODAY AND WEDNESDAY Blleen Percy, the clever come- denne of Willlam Fox photoplays, has a lively picture for her new re- lease.

Like| an Arabian Nights extrava- ganza the locale shifts rapidly from a palace to.dingy hall bedroom, from a big department store to a road house and from the city to the coun- try, keeping the spectator’s lnterest thoroughly engaged at every point. NAVY, PRINCETON AND CALIFORNIA LEADING (United Press Staft Correspondent) By Henry Farrell, New York, August 2.---Midship- men of the United States Naval acad- emy are entitled to puff a big chest out in their “tight-laced” jackets. The Navy wrote big letters on the intercollemnte sport callender for the 1920-1921 'season. The Annapolis rowing crew not only,won the undisputed champion- ship of the water, but it proved dt- self one of the greatest eights ever ‘developed in the Unfted States. In addition, Navy won the boxing, fencing and gymnastic titles and beat the Army at football, which was per- haps the sweetest of all the season’s triumphe to the future admirals. With the exception of football, the «collegiate championship for the schol- astic year were all fairly well estab- lished. Princeton had a big year, one of the most successful in Nassau's his- tory. The igers won the eastern| football championship, the tennis and | water polo crowns and a tie wnh‘ Dartmouth for the golf title. They| also lay claim to the sprint rowing championship. Califorrlia looms large also on the records ;with a degitimate claim to the western football championship, a clear title to the track and field title| and a second in the Poughkeepsic rowingiregatta. Rowting and track and field athlet- ics furnished the only clear titles to a national champlonship. The other lines of sport furinshed only section- al title.

STREET New York, August 2---Captain Ki'd the werld’s favorite pirate, was not nearly so bad as hgfhas been painted. At one time he was a citizen of| New York city and lived---appropri-| ately enough, maybe---in Pearl street, thie crookedest in the city. Arthur Bushnell Hart, the histor- ian, writing on ‘“The Real Captain Kid’ "in the August Mentor Magazine thus corrects the popular conception of the small boy's idol. A page of the evidence that hanged the redoubtable captalin is reproduced---an inventory of some of the loot he buried on iGardiner's Island. This was the only treasure supposed to have been buried by the celebrated pirate that has ever been discovered. OFF THE WORLD? THEN HERE’S A JOB FOR YOU New York, August 2.---If you're |*“off the world” get a job in the | lighthouse service. This is the advice of a writer in the :‘August Mentor Magazine who gives. an insight into the lives of |Uncle Sam’s sentinels of the sea. |Many light keepers -have !gone mad because of the lonliness, but life |in all; of the lighthouses is not so |bad. On the mainland the keepers have their families near them. ‘There are 16,324 lighthouses along 17,605 miles of American coast. The | mosdt dangerous lighthouse yn the | world is on = ‘Wolf Island, England. |Seas heavy enough to sweep away three tonsl of supplies wash over it frequently.

The fuyded, At all druggists.—Adv. the Japanese community .of Paris have looked on with no less surprise| at the doing of their social leader. Knowing the formality which sur- rounds personages of the imperial family in the court of Japan, offi als here were puzzled as to what al tude they should assume towards the special envoy of the land of the Rising Sun. Whether they might| shake hands with him, or talk freely | with him as they had to the Prince of Wales or whether indeed their ac-. tions might be wrongly interpreted as lacking in respect. ‘They were thus agreeably surpris- ed when they found in the young lad of twenty no trace of the aloof- ness they had expected, but a smil- (ing youth interested in the new ex-| perience he was undergoing, and eager to learn the ways of the people among whomy he was thrown. The prince for his part makes no secret| of it, he is enjoying himself thor- oughly, and is frankly pleased at the treatment he is being accorded. The prince’s latest departure from | precedent was a tea and bridge party | at which he was host to a small gath- ering of Japanese ladies, wives of the members of the Embassy staff. The guests were received in the prince's private suite at the embassy on the Avenue Hoche. The gathering was quite informal and the guests were made to feel entirely at their ease. He next entertained the ambagsa- dor and secretaries of the embassy to a luncheon in the course of which-he related to them some of his impres- sions of Paris. He expressed himself as parhicularly interested in the shops and window displays. The prince is deing his own shopping. He wishes to see thg Paris shops himself and select personally the presents he will buting back to Japan. . A few days ago he drove up to one of the most fashioanble jewelers of the Rue df la Paix and selected a diamond necklace as a present for his mother the empress. The necklace beautiful chain of diamonds with two large diamond pendants, was the prince’s own choice. For his own use the prince has ac- quired a collection of fancy Parisian canes which will no doubt become a new voguel at the court of the Mi- kado. ) Tokyo. (By Mail to United Press.) --4Reports of the travels of the Crown Prince in vaifious countries in Europe are being published at’ great length in Japan, and the accounts of the democratic mingling of this descend- ant of the Gods, with mere ordinary | ‘mortals are beng received with won- derment, but, as a rule with satisfac- tion. The TImperial Household, the stronghold of all that is conservative and redolent \with ancient ceremon- ial, has even begun to awaken from its sleep of centuries, and it is given out that on the return of the crown prince many reforms are to be carried out, when much ancient ceremonial will be replaced by more modern do- ings. Thus.it is understood that the im- peral household (s considering aband- oning the present rule which presents 'SUMMER STUDY ~. SHOWS AMBITION “Wonderful progress is made by pupils in our Summer School,” says F. L. Watkins, Pres., Dakota Bus- iness College, Fargo, N.

Justice Hoyt of the Children’s Court will probably some day have a statute or a medal or something con-| tw’buted by schoor boys of this city. The other day 15 of them desecrated the summer calm .at the High School of Commerce: by opening a window and going for a swim in the pool in the basement. The scandalized jan- itor had them arrested, and they were brought before the judge. He dis- charged them all with the comment that they had more sense in utiliz- ing the pcol than had whatever city authorities who had locked them out lin the warm weather. Irving Berlin is the latesty writer for the stage to become the owner of a theater. The Music Box, which promiises to become the particular joy of this song-writer's life, is nearing completion on West 45th street. - Ivy Sawyer and Joseph Santley are the first membersi to be chosen for the “mugic box” revue which opens the new theater in September.

The prospect of a visit in Japar by, the Prince of Wales has brought up the point that ‘at that time it will necessary for’ the crown prince to entertain ‘his royal visior at some theater, and many ceremonial compli- cations must be considered. To th@swesterner the shy little steps takeh by Japan dn the direction of democracy are quite amusing, for rcyal travel and the like is still at- tended by an amount of circum- stance and ceremonial which cannot but seem ludicrous to repubiican eyes. However while the progress is gradual and by small steps only, it is steady, and( there can be no doubt but that the travels of the crown prince will do much to hasten the process.
