Today’s Vaudeville and Photoplay Offerings. Today starts what is known as one of the worst weeks for business in the theatrical season, and this week all road shows pay only half salaries and most theatres cut all expenses possi_blo, but the programme at the Auditorium shows no cuts of any kind, both ihe vaudeville and photoplay programmes being up to the Auditorium standard of excellence. The 'show will start with Beauty apd the Ugly One, a very clever westérn story by the Nestor company, and this will be followed by the big two-reel feature film Who Killed Olga Carew? a baffling mystery drama by the Imp company, with the two popular stars, Jane Gail and Matt Moore. This was written and produced by Walter Mac- Namara and is considered the strong- est mystery film of the vear. Coogan & Coogan, a team of clever singers. dancers and comedians, will start the vaudeville, and their 15 min- utes of entertainment is of the best quality. Fred Hildebrand, the suave songolog- ist, is in No. 2 position, and Fred can certainly put them over. This clever comedian has the personall that is so essential to the success of a song, and also the singer, and it is not what he sings but the way he sings it that has made him a faverite. | Pons & Pons, with their sensational comedy acrobatic specialty, are in third place. and they alternately take Your breath away and make you laugh with their daring and funny stunts. To close the show the first of the new “joker” films will be own. This is a new brand on the Universal pro- gramme, and is composed of comedy films exclusively, and mostly of the roughhouse type. The title of the first| joker film is Mike and Jake at College, and Max Asher as Jake and Harry Mc- Coy as Mike will make you laugh until you cry. The football game in this picture would make a horse laugh. If you want to enjoy over an hour and 45 minutes of solid entertainment, the Auditorium is the pl DAVIS THEATRE. Big Bill of Feature Photoplays To- morrow, Beginning tomorrow, and until after the holidays, this theatre will present only the best in feature photoplays. For Tuesday's bill there are two spe- cial two-reel features; the first is The Filly, a beautiful Irish story of Squire Vernon, the owner of the fastest horsc in Kincralg county, who is much op- posed to his daughter receiving atlen- tlons from the son of Widow Riley. on whose heuse he holds a mortgage. The squire has two horses and he enters the best one in the Donnybrook splechase and feels sure that he will the 580 pou that is offered as the prize.. The best laid plans of mice 2nd men do not always come out as ex- pected, and love will always find a way, as is very clearly shown iIn this feature when the squire’'s best horse gets beat by none other than one own- ed by Danny Riley, his daughter’s) sweetheart. It would take too long to tell the whole story here and spoil the interest. but yvou can just figure out for yourself, then come and see it; you won’t be disappointed. Pretty Irish scenery and beautiful Irish costumes make this the best Irish picture shown in many a day. The other feature is a two-reel Domino photoplay, The Judg- ment. a story of the early New Eng- land settlers ten years after the founding of the Plymouth <colony; A Woman of Sin is the title of a powerful Rellance drama and shows how a woman was taught to see the right through the influence of a little child. | How He Won and The Actor Book Agent are two funny comedies to com- Peie the b Matinee daily at 2.20, and 10c ening at 7: gallery Sc, balcony and lower floor 10c. | Uncle Tom’s Cebin at the Davis To- | night. ! ant, lively di ations, thr g e—all are 3t honored Un- the renowned t the Davis ut thi Stetson cornpa theater tonisl:t. preon, is s H The pathetic death of Little Eva no sponer covered the audience pall than a stunning twber comas to restore the | flood or rely drooping soul.

The Whaenever and wherever a Vitagraph feature is exhibited, it is always ac- corded the clbsest attention, for it is a well known fact that this company's reputation was established by its close attention to detail, and in no picture of recent showing is it more apparent than in the superb two-reel nautical feature for today entitled The Pirates. A young sloop captain, fascinated by | the wiles of a young daughter of a director of a prominent business firm, kidnaps the entire board of directors, carrying them aboard his yacht; a rev- enue cutter pursues, also an envelop- ing fog, and John Bunny is in the midst of it all. Could anything be funnier? The Lost Chord is the mu- gical picture gem. "while Diversion, the wonderful Biograph drama, is fol- lowed by the following subjects: Na- tive of Australia and The Native Pond finmli both of which are educational. and In the Spanish Pyrenees, a series of magnificent mountain views.
