Crandall's Ambassador, also, begin- | ning yesterday and continuing through Tuesday, is featuring Con- stance Talmadge’s production for First National of “The Dangerous Maid," a review of which will be found in conjunction with the Metropolitan Theater offerings. Aesop Fable, “From Rags to Riches and Back Again.” in which the farm- er. the mice, the cats and the dog all have laughable intervals, the Pathe News and orchestral excerpts from Reginald De Koven's “The Red Feather” arc added attractions. Crandall's—W. S. Hart in “White Oak."” William 8. Hart, portrayer of life in the rugged, open west, is featured at Crundall's Theater the first three days of this week in “White Oak,” a story laid in the fifties that pictures the “early development of the west when rear-paddle steamboats navi- gated the rivers. Unusual care has been taken to depict the dress and customs of that era. Love and adventure provide the ac- tion that is typical of Hart's produc- tions. At the climax Hart rescues a ploneer wagon train single-handed and saves his sweetheart. A comedy, “The Hayseed,” presents James Aubrey in a series of misfor- tunes on a farm. Central—"After the Ball." Crandall's Central Theater presents for the first of the week “After the “Our | { companiment, and solo recitals by W. Ball,” a melodrama of the wayward son.” An irritable and wronged father turgs on the son, evicts him rom the home, and the boy lands finally in jail with a sentence of five years. After escaping confinement, the wayward boy attempts a return to society, but ‘is countered at almost every avenue of approach by the tricks of the “trusty” who escaped Wwith him and hopes thereby to profit. The cast includes Mirlam -Cooper, Gaston Glass, Thomas Guise, Eddie Gribbon and Edna Murphy. Larry non provides the fun of the program ks a two-reel, “Horse- shoes.” ~ Kinograms in a review of events, an excellent pipe organ ac- ! E. Thompson and Miss Irene Juno complete the bill.
