AMUSEMENTS Tivoli—"Garden of Music.’ Tivoli's mixture of stage and screen offerings this week furnishes both entertainment and thrills. Dolores Farris, a_ “dainty little | dancer,” with golden bobbed hair and twinkling toes, trips merrily in orig- inal steps of her own tashioning. She’s an appetizing first course to the menu. 5 Mellow tones of “On the Road to Mandalay” fill the huge theater from | the able throat of Edward Albano, “continental baritone,” who is also popularly heard in old familiar songs. “The Garden of Music,” surpr as a picturesque melange of old an new. in a quaint old-fas with hoop skirts, white wigs and pink blossoms. Florence York and her sextex describes their offering as | a “novel melody mosaic.” which it is, | with both old-time favorites «nd the latest jazz dance “Missing Daughters” is the feature presenting a vivid story of my side of life where missing daughters go, with a hero and hero- ie, however, in a flight for true love, and carries on to a thrilling climax. | Beautiful gowns, gorgeous scenes in | the “Golden Calf” resort, seashore parties nd the machinations of a diabolical trafficker in girls, with all his sumptuous retinue and beautiful snares with which to lure—these flash through the picture, which then jumps by seaplane to the southern resort, whence the girls are taken. Rockcliffe Fellowes, as the secret service operative, breaking up the traffic in_girls, and Eva Novak as| his sweectheart, who is involved in a} mesh of circ nces wholly bafing to her, lead an able cast, including Elicen Percy, Pauline Stark, Claire Adams, Robert Edeson, heldon Lewis and others. Tivoli's Mirror of the living world, Tivoli wanderings to beautiful places of the earth and an overture, “The Teller.” by the Tivoli ches , Bailey A. Alart, conduucting, provide pleasant embellishment. Metropohtanj“e White Moth." Cupid cuts strange capers—surely he must chuckle at his own caprice as he plays with the stout hearts of two brothers and one lovely Par\'s\:m actress this week in “The White Moth,” at Crandall's Metropolitan. Barbara La Marr handles the role of Mona Reid with dash, fire and deli- cacy. As the disappointed musician, about to throw heraclf into the Seine Mona Reid is rescued by a dance im presario, raised to the heights of theatrical glory, where she is adored by a wealthy American, who is so in- fatuated by the actress that he is on the point of deser;ing his fiance. The boy's brother. flayed by Conway | Tearle in admirable fashion, with re- serve and finesse, in order to save his brother tricks the girl a v from him at a gorgeous artists’ ball in Paris, encourages her 10 g0 to Amer- ica, and then marries her, under pre- tense of love, only to leave her on the wedding night, revealing his true purpose, but first planning for her support. What happens then to the broken- hearted girl who had saved her love for her ideal, and what happens to the unhappy husband who thought he had sacrificed himseif for his brother's_sake provides a delightful opportunity for Cupid to come in with very sharp arrows i Photography is bright, weird in spots; Miss La Marr is truly beauti- ful and many sccnes are EOrgeous. It is a delightful play, with an end- ing that warms the cockles of the heart Ben Lyon plays the role of the younger brother, while otners in the cast include Charles De Roche, Josie Sedgwick, William Orlamand ~and Edna Murphy. Louise Fazenda is seen in a rollick- ing_comedy, “Dizzy Dai: full of thrills and laughs. The Metropolitan World Survey presents news of the world, while the Metropolitan Or- chestra plays an entertaining over- ture, “Impressions of Vienna,” ar- ranged by Danlel Breeskin, conduc- tor. Rialto—"Being Respect- able.“ “Being Respectable,” the feature at the Rialto Theater this week, is a tale based on the fear of “what peo- ple will say.” Under the direction of Phil Rosen. who directed the great film, “Abraham Lincoln,” it is skill- fully handied, with many clever sa- tirical digs at human weakness, It i8 refreshing ifferent” in the first half, but inclined to drag ioto com- monplace ruts toward the end. The action is unified and the photography charming. An outstanding feature is the tiny, curly-haired boy who dom- inates Whenever on the screen. As he represents the inevitable “tie that binds,” it is fitting that he should dominate. The story concerns a father who marries his children off as he thinks best, insisting that his son marry a girl ‘whom he likes but does not love with the same ardor he expends on another. Five years later the son's infatuation for the woman he gave| up is unshattered, and he is on the | point of deserting his adorable little boy and faithful wife to g0 with that other woman. The specter of “being respectable,” however, com- bined with the confidence and love of his child, save the situation. Marie Prevost and Monte Blue seem to have established a new record hioned garden | ; for teamwork in tales of matrimonial tangles. Irene Rich, however, is the star of this film. This talented actres: who first won recognition as the hero- ine In pictures featuring Strongheart, the dog actor, gives convincing color to the part of a sweet woman, frankly in love with the man she marries and an ideal wife to him. Miss Prevost portrays 2 selfish, vamning young per- son, similar to the role she played in Lulitsch's “The Marriage Circle.” Mr. Blue wrinkles his forehead. looking rerpetually worried and doing little cept kiss the two leading ladies—a easing enough job, perhaps.

At last, through a hoax invented by an en- terprising press agent for a large automobile concern, Monty is credited with being a famous foreign auto racer. A competitor of this firm signs Monty up to drive his car in a big race and win $5000. Poor Monty has never even been in a car and has shown deathly fear of the vehicles, yet he has true pluck.
