AMUSE NATIONAL PLAYERS—“Seventh Heaven. “Seventh Heaven, cesstul play vet pres tional Theater Players either this, or last season, will be repeated next week, beginning Monday night. A ‘thing unusual in stock annals is the fact that many people have written, phoned or called in person at the theater, asking if there were prospects that ‘the play would be re. peated. When presented by the play- ers two weeks ago the play did ca- pacity busin,ss nightly after the Mon day night opening. “Seventh Heaven" tells a thorough 1y affecting story about Chico and Diane—two of misfortune’s offspring who survive the crucible of misery for an ending that, while not wholly happy, is at least contrastingly so. In addition there are u dozen other . distinct character types, sentative of the myria that infest the Paris slums. John Warner will do Chico and Leneta Lane Diane, while Charles Hampden will do Boul, the old taxi driver. KEITH'S—Heien MacKellar. Manager Robbins of B. . Kelth's Theater announces an especially fine holtday bill for next week, beginning with Sunday’s matinee.

EARLE—CIift l',(l\mr(lc (Ukulele Tke). Next week at the Karle Theater the headline attraction will be Cliff Edwards, phonograph record artist and a singing comedian, better known to many as “Ukulele Ike.” The pho- toplay attraction will furnish more thri than can be counted, although matched by the laughs applied by a deft vein of comedy in “The Sham- rock Handlcap,” a Fox melodrama. Other ideville numbers will in- lude the R ented by the Na-|in -| organ. ., Miss Helen MacKellar, |7 » | for reform, plunges recklessly into the MENTS pean entertainers; Ed Levan and Joe Doris, billed as *Dispensers of Joy and Cheer”; Earle Hampton and company “Meet Dad,” a comedy sketch, with Madge McCarthy and Frank Towns- end, by Willlam Bateman, and a mu- sical revue, “Dince Revels,” with a dozen high-voltage players, In three elaborate scenes. “The Shamrock Handicap” is a melodramatic romance of Ireland and the race tracks, in which the out- standing roles are played by Willard Louls, as an American turfman, and Louis Payne, an Irish landowner and horse breeder, in dire financial straits. The early scenes are laid in the pic- turesque countrysiie of the Emerald Isle, and those of climact tance on one of the forem Eastern tracks in this country Alexander Arons will give his usual concert on the triple-manual pipe PALACE—"Padlocked.” The new photoplay season of 192627 will be inaugurated at Loew’s Palace, it i3 announced, next Sunday after- noon, when “Padlocked,” * Allan Dwan's Paramount production of the Rex Beach romance of modern man- ners and morals, will be presented for the first time locally. The ¢ Louise Lois Moran, Helen 1, Douglas nce Turner. Moran has the role of “a beau- high-spirited girl who, unable to endure the oppressions of an iron- willed, wealthy father with a hobby whirl of Broadway night life and emerges, after a bitter struggle, a glorfous’ woman with a real man's love.” METROPOLITAN Lover. “The Sporting Lover,” feature at Crandall's Theater, brings to the screen, in an adaptation of Ian Hay and Seymour Hicks' Drury Lane melodrama, “Good Luck,” players like Conway Tearle and Barbara Bedford, with Arthur Rankin, Ward Crane, Charles E. Mc- Hugh and Johnny Fox, jr. “The Sporting Lover” is sald to bring to the screen one of the most successful of the melodramatic hits from the Drury Lane Theater in Lon- don. Its climax is reached during the running of the English Derby. Bona fide views of the world’s greatest = contest of thoroughbreds are en, with the King and Queen of England in_attendance, lendmng this portion of the play’s development a high degree of exciting realism. This, however, is but one of the many stir- ring episodes in a story that is pro- in thri The Sporting next week'’s Metropolitan THE EVENING surprising in its unexpected ramifica- tions of plot.

RIALTO—"“The Unknown Soldier.” Renaud Hoffman's production, “The Unknown Soldier,” which comes to the Rialto next week, is described as “a pleture of a symbolic patriotism, unlike any war picture ever made.” The settings are massive and of a character to rouse enthusiasm.
