It is a jazz story with Broadway figuring in the theme, jitney dance halls and es of the rich and idle. “The Taxi Dancer” is a sensational drama and will be shown again twice for the last times tonight. | DOUBLE FEATURE BILL AT COLISEUM | i “Night Life of New York,” pro- duced for Paramount by Allan Dwan, who made “Robin Hood,” “Manhandled,” ete., is one of the fedtures now at the Coliseum. Rod La Rocqne, Dorothy Gish, Ernest Torrence, and George Hackathorne are featured in the leading roles ot the pietare, which is an original !nreen story by Bdgar Selwyn, the playwright-producer. LThe story is one of John Bent- 1 who failed both in making by in New York and winning the girl of his heart. He went wést, mdde a fortufie and married fofheone 6168, never getting over his grudge against the city, Mow- Jéver. To HRonald Bentley ((Rod La “Rocque) Néw York is forbidden territory, and he has to conteht himself with painting . his own home town red. He's not a bit of ‘help to his father in a business Wiy, and the old mam begins to sore.

Bentley, Sr., gets news that his son is in jail and {has a fine laugh all to himself, ‘thinking all this part of hig (scheme. This is the starter for ‘the story. Harold Lloyd, bespectacled and dismayed as always, is delighting | his_ worshippers by appearing in other of his funniest roles, a harrassed newlywed taking care 10f his brotherinlaw's progeny. The picture is “I Dal” the other {feature on for the last time to- Inight. This is one of Lloyd's best two-reelers for which there ix ch a popular demand that the | producers ed it. Mildred | Davis plays opposite Lloyd, with Noah Young as comedian “heavy” and Jackie Morgan and Jackie Ed- ards as the riotous and lusty- Iull;:vll children. The picture concerns the ! troubles Harold and Mildred have with the children, who are not aenemic, angelic, nor calm and restful. The four-year-old is ma ter of the art of makihg trouble, while the baby can hold her own in any company. And a pet kit- ten, with a penchant for bags of marbles and like objects cduses just as much excitement as the { rest. “THE ICE FLOOD” IS i AT PALACE TOMORROW | ¥ “The Ice Flood,” a Universal Jewel producticn with Kenneth Harlan and Viola Dan& in the fea- NOTICE AND CALL OF SPECIAL ELECTION ON IS"I} CE_OF ' EVCIERB “E TOWN 0!

Reasons for Rejoicing By EDITH LOCHRIDGE REID have to look for them rather dili- gently, even feeling at times, per- haps, the need of a mental micro- | scope or a field glass to maznify and reveal them, but the se: always has its reward. How in- !spirim: it would be bhoth for mo- ther and child if all reasons for rejoicing could be written in capi tal letters on the memory while the less pleasant things were re- corded lightly. We nced to stop shouting about mistal and sub- stitute songs of joy. Mothers need to get away from | fussiness and nagging and from detail discipline.
