Five acts of Metropolitan Vaude

this description jn. the' versatility
of entertainment of thir' kind.

Joan Falcyi- "The surprise girl"
offers an oddity comprised of
dancing, piano playing and con
tortion work, which - is a feature
of the act. There is. , nothinK
freakish in the style of her work:
she is blessed with v a. charming
personality;" and ls considered a
perfect figure. Her presentation
differs tastly from other acts of
this kind. Her Work is a revela
tion and her costumes are of the
best.
Alsace & Lorraine, true to their
billing, "present a brilliant .musi
cal specialty." They appear in a
repertoire of gems j from grand
ODera to jazz.- They also-introduce
the "Alsacephone" the violin with
the. human volce. The act is a
rfean classy bit that' has splendid
entertaining Qualities and is ab
solutely unique in its entirety, full
of good melodious music and
played in a manner that will be
appreciated by all lovers of in
strumental music.
kuss Berlio and Brother, ac
knowledged the leading exponents
of the flvlng rings, their efforts
in perf orminir sensational feats are
such as to warrant them being
placed in a class of their own.
Where the average ring artist
leaves off. this clever, team- be
gins.. In other words, their exhibi
tion is wholly of that seniational
dare devil order; that makes their
act stand out pre-eminently. The
time consumjad is only seven min
utes and the slightest slip and the
result would be hard to conjecture.
Lrnne Sisters are two dainty
looking girls whp understand the
proper idea In putting over songs
both character and jazz. The
young ladies possess splendid
voices which blend in perfect har
mony. The songs used by the
Lynne Sisters-are specially fitting
and are universally received with
the highest appreciation. The girls
makA a specialty of numbers of
the . most popular kind and they
wear some pretty costumes.
On the acrnen at the' Capitol to
day will be "The Lure of the
Night Club." . I:

Hard riding, hard fighting and
stunts of daring that thrilt every
nerve are the outstanding features
of Buck Jones splendid picture of
the Basque country of the Pacific
southwest, which. - shows at the
Oregon today for last time.
There is not a dull moment in
this story of the cowboy who
comes to the settlement of the
Basques seeking vengeance for the
death of his brother and finds ro
mance and adventure es well as
the sinister thing he seeks.
Natalie Joyce is the dinty little
Spanish be'anty who is the girl In
the story, and she gives a perfect
performance. But it is Buck, the
hardridlng. dare-devil cowboy,
who furnishes the thrills and
laughter. Here is a picture that
will make , you " forget your
troubles, because it will just take
you out of yourself. And in addi
tion to a rip roaring thriller' you
will enjoy seeing some of the
most beautiful country ever shot
by the 'camera. A picture for the
whole family. And that was the
verdict of all who saw the first
showing of "Whispering Sage"
yesterday.'"
