DANVILLE, Va., August 24.—Night jriders have made their appearance in Virginia and are operating in Halifax County and in North Carolina. Half a dozen farmers have found posted on trees near their tobacco fields typewritten notices warning that unless they deliver their crop this year to the farmers’' pool no more tobacco will be grown on that land this year. David T.

These veterans sing right now as well as they did as stars or sub- stars in the big opera companies 20 ears ago. Harold Trip and Frank eld are heard to splendid advantage in beautiful songs, while the organiza- tion’s singing in unison makes a big hit. Stella Mayhew's voice is not of the cultivated variety, but she manages to put over a couple of character dit- yties that are xcreams. She carries un- limited “pep” all through her work and pleased everybody so much that she had to beg off with the e |that she is “only a beginner’ |hardly deserved her big reception, which hung up an additional laugh.

EJRLE—Meroff’s “High Hatters.” Ben Meroff and his “High Hatters” head the bill at the Earle Theater this week in an entertainment that is well worth seeing. Not only do they furnish plenty of music, but intermingle it with * clowning that brings many laughs. Ben, himself, is quite an adept in the fantastic. Throughout, the bill ‘s good. Rose Perfect, billed as “America’s Nightingale,” has an exceptionally good voice, and sings popular modern as well as old-timg selections. Ray Shannon and Bobby Van Horn in a new skit, “The Top Floor,” have a long chatter of amusing quips, and Frank Hunter and company, in “Moving Days,” furnish a comedy sketch that was appreciated by the large audiences vesterday. Brad Sutton and Marguerite Spencer give able support in this number.

Frank Albright and Eleanor Harte, billed as “Two Bright Lights From Broadway,” offer unusual comedy in a skit of clever comedy and songs, and J. C. Lewis, jr., and company, comedy, singing and dancing, that scored a de- cided hit. “The Breath of Scandal,” an adapta- tion of Edwin Balmer's novel, is the feature photoplay. It is_the sto of a society girl whose first contact with raw reality comes when she learns that her father, whom she has idolized, has gone from his home to seek elsewhere love and understanding withheld by his wife. Betty Blythe in the role of the other woman supplies vivid beauty and emotional expression, and Lou Tellegen has an opportunity for a unique characterization. She-t film features and orchestral nur sers complete the entertainment. GAYETY—"Rarin’ T’ G In picking out the high lights of “Rarin’ T' Go,” the black-and-white show which opens the new season at the Gayety, one instinctively reaches first for Biily Foster's nose.” That re- markable appendage, both for its bril- liant colorings and its side-splitting slant, is one of the outstanding fea- tures of the white artists’ performance —outstanding in more ways than one. Billy Foster, operating behind his extraordinary nose, wears an excru- clatingly ~funny expression which makes his most inane remarks amus- ing. “Counting the Hours,” the final scene in the white half of the combi- nation show, is well worth the price of admission. Lifted bodily from rl Carrol's vanities, it is presented with skill and effectiveness. Particu- larly charming is the dresden figure, poised gracefully on top of the mam. moth clock, from which the ‘“hours” glide silently to the strains of a | haunting song sung by Jack Wright 1and Lillian Edbrooke. Ten scenes are included in the first half, opening with a police scene in Times Square, New York, featuring the inimitable Billy Foster.
