Burton Holmes® Final Travelogues. HE Colonial Exposition, Paris, and the Prench colonies was the theme of Burton Holmes’ last travelogue this season, presented at the National Theater yesterday afternoon. The Colonial Exposition is, per- haps, one of the most interesting presentations we have had under Mr. Holmes’ most capable guid- ance, particu- larly as this was the first film of this elaborate and magnificent ex- position which has appeared on any screen. ‘The Colonial Exposition, & complete little city in the heart of Paris, was beautifully laid out with wide, paved streets, flower Burton Holmes. gardens, cafes and even a tiny electric train which took the sightseers from one end to another. Replicas, remarkable in detail of architecture from all over the world, were on display. The effect of blending the Old World with the New was quite bizarre, as the audience was shown “the Avenue of the Colonies” lined with old temples, mosques, African grass houses, queer, carved figures of worship from half-civilized coun- tries, as contrasted with the beau- tiful modern display representing Italy, Holland, France, Belgium and many other countries. In many in- stances Mr. Holmes proved the ac- curacy of detail and design by showing pictures of the original buildings and then the copies built in_Paris. Probably the most beautiful of all was the ruined palace of Angkor, deserted over 700 years ago, and which came to life again in Paris, complete in every detail, even to its dancing girls imported from Cam- bodia. America was represented by & beautiful reproduction of Mount Vernon, accurate in every detail, the main building, outside kitchens, the pergolas and beautiful gardens. Appropriately presiding over this typical American display was the grandniece of George Washington, a gracious hostess, bearing a marked likeness to our first president. The streets of this little settle- ment were lined with shops and bazaars, a source of delight to sou- venir hunters in search of me- mentos of their visit to the exposi- tion. Outstanding features of the decoration were the beautifully col- ored luminous fountains, particular- ly “the Water Theater” and the water bridges, especially delightful at night with their ever-changing colors. Prom the exposition Mr. Holmes gave his audience a brief glimpse of the “Sidewalk Cafe” life in Paris and a long-desired table he secured to take back home with him. This table has stood for years at the corner of a certain Paris cafe, and since 1895 Mr. Holmes had used it. Now, when_the time comes for him to give up his travels, he may sit at his little table and imagine himself back on his favorite corner in Paris. “THE REAL HOLLYWOOD.” GATURDAY afternoon, Mr. Holmes Y gave a repetition of his lecture on “The Real Hollywood,” a sub- ject always interesting to our “movie-minded” public. Mr. Holmes, a frequent traveler to all the beauty spots of the world, paid a subtle compliment to Hollywood in choos- ing it as a site for his own lovely little home, Topside. Being a resi- dent of this fair city, Mr. Holmes is CLAFLIN Optician—Optometrist 922 14th St. N.W. Established 1889 Burchell’s Famous Bouquet Coffee A Superb Blend 25cLb. N. W.

Hollywood, once a suburb of Los Angeles, now appears to be quite like any other | ~sperous American city, except for the studios and the unusual number of movie theaters. There is much natural beauty sur- rounding this city, beautiful hills and snow-covered mountains in the distance. ‘There are also several natural amphitheaters in and around Hollywood, where concerts are given every evening, and of particular in- terest, is “Hollywood Bowl,” where the 1932 Olympic games are to be staged. An interesting and unusual fea- ture of Hollywood life is the num- ber of outdoor breakfast clubs, to which every one seems to go. The menu consists of ham and eggs. But first every one must join in queer setting-up exercises, which cause much merriment to the guests. The audience was treated to scenes of favorite stars at work in the studios, at play on the beauti- ful beaches and in the privacy of their own homes. These hom-s, by the way, are like little palaces, and vary in architectural style and beauty. No visit to Hollywood is com- plete without a trip to Catalina Island, and to Agua Caliente, just over the border in Mexico, which offers much in the way of amuse- ment with its race track, gaming tables and bar. The premier showing of a new film at one of the Hollywood thea- ters is something to long remember, as an opportunity to view the pa- rade of the stars, gorgeously ar- rayed, as they enter the theater. Thousands of admirers crowd near the entrance and pay as high as $1.50 for the privilege of a seat along the promenade in front of the theater where the stars pass in review. D. L. “Tally Ho Girls” Provide Fun at Gayety. A BEVY of vivacious damsels, to- gether with an amusing bunch of mirth producers tagged the “Tally Ho Girls,” put over a burlesque show as interesting as any this year. Virginia Wheeler, Angeles Lee and Johanna Slade are the leading femi- nines, and Virginia, especially, com- mands attention, with her method 1931. of crooning and cavorting. A satis- fying contrast is offéred by Angeles and Johanna. Capable among the comedy makers are Eddie Lloyd and George Carroll, for without them the masculine end of skits would fall through. Marie Oliver and FPritzi White, as guest stars, while not quite up to the mark set by their predecessors, are fair and Marie does a novel number with her accordion. “Barnum Was Right’ and “Ram- bl Rosie,” two acts of fun and laughter, exploit noval and original ‘humor. ‘The chorus deserves credit as being among the best and snappiest of the year.
