Irene and Sally,” was introduced and registered a hit. It is the work of Comedian Eddie Dowling and the lines, situations and general outline are most creditable. The music is taken from the song hits of the three popular musical comedies embodied in the title. The four scenes, the tenement district, Jimmy’'s home, the stage door and the dressing room, are bits from “Irene,” artistically set. The company is strong, both in acting and singing. Mabel Withee, who heads the cast, dresses her part in good taste and gave her allotted songs sweet interpretation. Cather- ine Mulqueen as Irene looks and acts the part and is a close copy of Marylin Mi while Helen O'Shea as Sally was equally good. Mr. Dowling, as Jimmy, gave an excel- lent character interpretation. Later on the bill, Dowling appeared as a monologist and was not so bad and not so good. Lillian Fitzgerald suffered in being too far down the program. She sang her well known imitation song, scor- ing her usual hit, and demonstrated her ability as a comedienne of rare excellence. The Pedersen brothers, on the flying rings: Homer Mason and Marguerite Keeler, in their well known “Married” sketch: Joe Bo- ganny and a freak company of tur blers: ardon and Perry, “The Live Wires,” in a musical turn that ca ried & laugh almost continuously; Mlle. Nana and Alexis, in a sensa- tional whirlwind dance, winni much applause; Rudinoff, who drew smoke pictures and whistled clever- 1y, and the Arco brothers, in a won- derful athletic act, with the Shubert News Weekly, complete the bill. STRAND—Vaudeville. Each of the five numbers presented in the vaudeville section of this week's bill at the Strand Theater might be styled a feature. Swain's cats and rats, a novelty in animal life, open the entertainment, and give a remarkable exhibition of the training of dumb animals. Mur- phy and Klein, in “Tinkling Tunes and Musical Moments,” furnish fifteen min- utes of all around good fun. A musical comedy fashion review, in which Hugo Jansen presents “The Frill Shop,” with a company of charming femininity, was well received, and Eddie Sloane, “A Dark Son of Father Joy,' was forced to respond with several encores in his monologue,.“A Pair to Draw To.” Prevost and Goulet close with a clever act. The photoplay is a Metro production entitled “The Infamous Miss Revell” with Alice Lake as the star. It wi adapted by Arthur J. Zellner from W. Carey Wonderly’s story, which con- cerns a family that was expecting to inherit a fortune from a wealth uncle. On learning that the money has not been left to them. but to a stranger, a young girl decidedly pret- interesting complications ~ arise. The weekly news and a comedy round out the entertainment. CAPITOL—"“Little Bo-Peep.” “Little Bo-Peep” opened last night at the Capitol Theater. Two come- dians, Taye and Pepper, kept the house laughing all the evening and Charles Markey helped much in put- ting over the comedy. There are many musical numbers and the work of Helen Lloyd, Violet Hilson and Con- stance Willia is commendable. The chorus is not the best that hds been seen here, but it is better than some that have been here recently. The “Little Bo-Pee crowd will be here all the week, with wrestling T‘humdny night as an added attrac- tion. " Photoplays. RIALTO—"The Sheik.” “The Sheik,” Edith M. Hull's tribal prince of the Sahara, galloped his Arablan steed over the burning sands and into the good graces of capacity audiences at Moore's Rialto Theater yesterday afternoon and_ night. The play is a triumph of fiction over the invasion of foreign historic productions, which have been remind- ing picture patrons lately that great figures of the past lack the happy endings demanded by an everdyvday world has troubles enough of its own. It is doubtful if an American sheik ever existed outside the imagination that created him, but his splendor and dash, as provided by Rudolph Valentino, aided by authentic costumes imported from Africa. provide a love story that only romance, unrestricted by fact. can supply. This independence of reality asserts itself. also, in an environment of handmade nature, which challenges the sinister beauty of the real thing. An artistically satisfying oasis ow its date palms to California builders. whose family name should be Alad- din. and a barren waste near Holly- wood contributes an atmosphere as grimly realistic as the vast silences of the Sahara, so far as it goes—and it goes far emough to create one of the . most excitingly arid deserts eker visioned outside of Algeria's very own. Crossing this desert are cara- vans, eamel packs and Arab horsemen, ‘with striped tents here and there and a village built around the fortified stronghold of ' one desert bandit, Omair, who has trespassed on the domain of Ahmed Ben Hassen to ab- duct an English girl, who, in turn, is recaptured by the hero after a mighty battle between the oppos- ing élans. The story has its beginning with a fete giveri by Shelk Ahmed in the casino at Biskra, he Paris of Africa,” at the gateway of the desert. An English girl resents the closing of the casino to European guests. and disguising herself as an oriental dancer, smuggles in: is recognized by the sheik, who leads her out of the magic world to the portico of her hotel: serenades her that night: steals her the next day and takes her to his eamp in the oasis. Irf her effort to escape she is captured by the bandit Omair, and in the complications that follow the: sheik is wounded in his gallant rescue: cupid steps in and a providential English author on the ground reveals to the girl that Ah- med’s parents had died on the desert and the old Sheik Ahmed had adopted the baby and in later years made him heir to his domain—a whim of fate that permits a last vision of camel-packs traveling with slow pa- tience along a horizon line that leads to America and home. Agnes Ayres, as Diana, the English girl, brings to her role more than the youth and beauty that until re- cently was.enough to attain ecreen stardom. She can act. Rudolph Valentino scored fame as the Julio of the “The Four Horsemen,” and being in reality, an Itallan, gave to his orlental character all the roman- tic passion and ‘picturesqueness of that other song-son of the desert. who rode through the burning eands of love on a steed whose “hoofs were shod with fire.” The Omair of Wa®fr Long shows how villainously good wickedness can be. The company, col- orful in its multiplicity of dancing girls, slaves, hordes of wild, rushing ARSIBIT ‘There’s one sure way of Tepairing it so that every possibility of a leak will be ovércome. 5 ‘With our Rub-er-on As- bestos Fiber Coating no moisture can get through.

R T horsemen of devotees that look like so many mounds snow as they prostrate themselves before Allah, is, in its entirety, so excellent an ensemble that there isn't a weak link in the cast. PALACE—“Enchantment.” Tt is really refreshing to see such a photoplay as “Enchantment,” which is presented this week at the Palace Theater. It is so clean and whole- some. There is no morbid suggestion, nothing of the forbidden. 3 It is the story of a domestic prob- lem, handled in the light and breezy way similar problems were handled by Mr. and Mrs. Sidney Drew. It re- cords the attempt to control a head- strong, heartless and self-sufficient girl of cighteen, who regards her mother as old-fashioned and behind the times. Her father gets an idea from “Taming of the Shrew” and ar- ranges a little plot for the curbing of his daughter. Its development calls for consider- able histrionic ability on the part of members of a very capable cast. There is an appealing naturalness about the scenes. The people act like human beings in daily life. There is an ab- sence of melodramatic posturing. The |y, words used and the action portrayed are such as one would expect in the circles depicted, and through the play Marion Davies moves, always beauti- ful and ever a picture. Motion picture views of current events, Mutt and Jeft in a bacber shop and appropriate musical sel tions by the orchestra complete the program. METROPOLITAN—“A Man’s Home.” A six-piece jazz orchestra, a rol- licking comedy picture, a pleasing rendition of the Zampa overture by | the Metropolitan symphony and a Ralph Ince feature production, Man's Home,” this week at Crandall’s Metropolitan. The Ince picture is melodramatic, but procecds through a series of stir- ring episodes to an unusual climax without a jarring note. It concerns the home life of a_millionaire, who bas made his “checkbook his Bible,” placing business before his wife and daughter. The wife, left to her own devices, becomes the prey of a pair of black- mailers, one of whom had in earlier years made a victim of the million- aire's prospective son-in-law. Warned of his wife's indiscretions, the mil- lionaire manages to outwit the crooks and create for himself and family a real home. Harry T. Morey as the millionaire and Kathlyn Will in the role of the neglected wife contribute much 3 clever impersonations. ntine and Roland Bottom- cptionally good as the re Binney as the daugh- tt Moore, in the role of the suitor, are also quite capable. COLUMBIA—‘“Ladies Must Live.” Betty Compson’s picture, “Ladies Must Li which has been held over at Loew’s Columbia for another week, drew large audiences yesterday after- noon und last night’ The story is well known and concerns the chase of women after wealthy husbands and the disastrous results that follow. The interest is held throughout. Betty Compson is always good to look upon and in addition acts with discretion and sincerity. oil Gas Electric HEATERS + MUDDIMAN &, 616 12th St—1204 G St. Get Your Rest at Night— Zemo Soothes Eczema, Tetter and Rashes experience has taught us how to compound and ap- ply with the surety that warrants us giving a three-year guarantee.

Harry Pollard's comedy, “Hokus Pokus,” was the chief supplementary feature, with Rossini’s “Semiramide” overture, by the orchestra, under con- ductorship of Signor Ernesto Natiello. | The Pathe News and Topics of the Day rounded out the bill. CRANDALL'S—“Clay Dollars.” “Clay Dollars,” a Selznick produc- tlon, which was shown at Crandall's Theater yesterday, is a picture of “Maln street,” and, for richness in local color and characters, it is a_praiscworth burlesque of small town life.

Teeth that glisten as they newer did before. i Millions now use this new way of teeth cleaning. Every day they combat the film, the coat that makes teeth dingy. When you see and envy the effects, why not resolve to try them? Film dims the teeth That viscous coat you feel on teeth is film. It clings to tecth, enters crevices and stays. The old ways of brushing did not ‘effec- tively combat it. So the film-coats were per- sistent. And most tooth troubles have been traced to them. Film absorbs stains, making the teeth look dingy. Film is the basis of tartar.
