The | Kingdom of Giod is within you not in| formulae nor in dogma, but in the in- | nermost_depths of life itself.” Dr. Lewis pointed out the dis- tinetive human quality of self-deter- mination and called attention to the fact that the university opens up channels of thought and information. Dr. Lewis spoke upon the hope of universal peace resting upon a Rpirit of broad tolerance and sympathetic understanding. - He . questioned the right of America to assume & “holier than thou” attitude as to the ethica 2nd morals of countries abroad. De- claring that it was_wise to set our own house in order, Dr. Lewis showed the necessity for a personal applica- tion of the same principle. | “Finally, in the confidence that lhe: Kingdom of God is within us, we should Inok out upon life with dom and high hope for the futur declared Dr. Lewis.

In honor of the 127th commence- | ment of Georgetown, Pope Pius XI | has presented to the university, as the mother of ail Catholic educational | institutions in this country, a large | pleture of himself, which was hung vesterday in the corridor of the Healy building. | Written by the Pope is the follow- | ing Latin inscription: “To the presi- | dent and professors of Georgetown College, on the banks of the Potomac, the alma maier of all Catholic col- | leges in the United States, we give - | French, gave the topliner a warm race {and his “Hits and Bits of Vaude- eur greetings and apostolic benedic. tlon. (Signed) Pope Pius XI1.” The plcture attracted much atten- tlon from the visitors vesterday. KEITH'S—Belle Baker. The vaudeville favorite, Belle Baker, | heads a fairly good bill this week at Keith's. £ Miss Baker possesses an unknown quantity of character songs and she selected the best for last night, stop- ping the show, for her friends and ad- mirers insisted upon encore after en- core. An Ttallan number, detalling a woman's experience with a massage expert, and a_tough song stood out. Left to herself, Miss Baker runs to the pathet Ka aefl, the noted Russian his company of girls, Joyce Coles, pretty Beatrice Carr and Kitty Buckley, for the honors. The star is one of the best dancers on the stage, and the girls are steppers of the first class, while Miss Buckley adds varlety with pleasing violin numbers. The star and company had to bow their acknowledgements a half dozen times. Another big number is the George Washington Univer: Men's Glee Club, Robert H. . conductor, with'a quintet of They had scoring knock-out senting four of the boys tion, who break into the “‘Charleston,” made a distinct_hit and had to be re- peated. Mrs. Harmon, who accom- panied with the piano, embellished the offering with a neat little song en- titled “Dolly’s Mama.” which was well received. The chorus is well drilled and altogether the club made one of the big hits of the evening. ° Other good acts include a clever - | monologist, Walter Brower, who had [~ everything new to offer to continuous laughter; th Schenk aluo, excel- lent acrobats: Mr. and Mrs. Jimmy Barry, with their usual hit; Herbert Clifton, in_ female impersonations: Harry and Harriet Seeback in a good bag punching act, and the house at- tractions. EARLE—RBobby Heath Revue. Headlining a nicely varied program at the Earle this week is Bobby Heath ville,” one of those fast-moving min- {ature dance revues. Bobby leads six pretty girls through a series of dances, hile he sings gome of his own com: positions and furnishes some good clowning to keep the audience amused throughout the act. A song and dance act is presented by Eddie Rev, Miram Conway and Wes Thomas, in which one of the male partners gives a good demonstration of soft-shoe dancing. The other two Sang pretty songs and _executed dances . that pleased the custome Gracie Deagon and Jack Mack have an original way of putting across com- THE EVENING. STAR, AMUSEMENTS his end of the laugh-making. Stan | and Clara. Morton, half of the well, known Four Mortons, have an act abounding in wise, cracks that are laugh-provoking. Clara is an accom- plished musician, and plays popular songs on a saxophone. Sun Fong Lin and company, elght Chinese men and women, have an act offering a little of everything—magic, unusual juggling feats and ancient Chinese fights presented by men said to have been formerly with Gen. Chang-Hau's army of defense in Pe- king ‘The photoplay is Producers’ “Eve's Leaves,” starring Leatrice Joy, with William Boyd, star of “The Volga Boatmen,” in the leading male role. It is sparkling comedy, with lots of thrills. A Lupino Lane comedy and music by Alexander Arons complete a really entertaining bill, PALACE—'The Lucky Lady.” Hats off to Mr. Robert E. Sher- one of the “despised dramatic he Tucky Lady,” at Loew's Pal- heater this week, is a splendid example of what is likely to happen when the much-abused movie critic takes a hand at movie making. In this instance he had Bertram Bloch as a co-worker, and between the two they have turned out an unusually clever piece of light coniedy, with the assistance of Greta Nissen, Willlam Colller, jr.; Marc MacDermott, Lionel Mme.
