FALL CARNIVAL AT THE STRAND Soven Vandeville Acts and “Natertront” Featared Beginning Monday, the Strand will offer Fall Carnival Week, a full week of special attractions that wil be a show of shows .For the tirst three days beginning Monday, seven seect vaudeville acts will be featur- ed with a great photoplay attrac- tion. Among the vaudeville numbers are such offerings as Jean Spence, the noted Broadway stage and night club entertainers with the Liloyd Sisters in “Moments of the Dance;" Howard and Mann, a team of very funny comedians in their laugh pro- ducer, “Don’t Be Silly;"” Walton and O'Brien in the smart offering ‘The Great Lovers;" The Al Noda Girls in a novelty surprise. that will offer something a bit different’ in vaude- ville; and several other star acts. Jack Mulhall and Dorothy Mac- kail? - First National's cinematic team, have given the screen a num- ber of delightful pictures, but with- out doubt their last venture, “Waterfront,” showing at the Strand theater Sunday, Monday, Tuesda and Wednesday, is head and shoul- ders above anything they have done before. “Waterfront” is a delightful, fast moving tale of life around the docks and piers of a big harbor. In this particular {instance it is the famed Golden Gate harbor of San Francis- co and a better - choice could not have been made. Miss Mackaill is the daughter of the captain of a tug boat. 8he is wild about the sea, wants to sail to foreign shores and can't get enough of the salty air. On the other hand, her father, ably enacted by Knute Ericson, is tired of water and. tug boats. His great desire is'to settle down on a farm. Enter Mulhall in the guise of an oller on a trans-Pacific steamer. He falls for the girl, and she falls for him, only to fall out in a hurry when he confides a fondness for dry and himself. How everyone is eventually satisfied provides one of the most amusing and thrilling storfes imaginable. On Thursday the program will change and will offer seven more select acts that will be the talk of the city with the feature photoplay presenting Charles “Buddy” Rogers with Marion Nixon in “Red Lips,” a great tale of collegiate youth. AT PALACE Cast in a role that displays to the highest advantage her talent as a great emotional star, Greta Garbo 18 to be seen at the Palace theater in her datest starring picture, “Street of Sorrow,” Sunday and Monday. “Streets of Sorrow” is undoubted- ly one of the most unusual ‘motion pitture to come out of the post-war period, since it deals not with war, not with days of peace, but with the real situation over there as it is faced by the young generation Who have grown up to suffer for the sins of those who precipitated the World War. ) “Streets of Sorrow™ is a fine pic- ture and should be seen by all those who love a good picture intelligent- ly conceived and intelligently exe- cuted.

No tests were regarded as neces- #ary since the big plane has been thoroughly tried out in the long wait that preceded yesterday's flight. Willlams, who expects to pilot the machine, was enthusiastic over the outlook. “We don't care if we don’t see the water or land,” he said. “We have a double check with our instruments and will know pre- ciscly where we are all the time.” ‘Willlams has had 15 years' ex- perience. He will be the chief pilot and Sabelll, the commander. Of the 4.450 miles to Rome, 2,200 will be over water. The aviators plan to fy due east for Sable Isg, | land. T e . Herbert E.
