The liiaito inanaL'Ctnent surprised the publir- veMordav with a real con cert orchestra of eiuht pieces, led by Mrs. Poller a professional violinist, lrom Seattle, with marked ability and n director par excellence. The well-chosen program of lour numbers was a musieal treat, de signed to please the varied tastes of u theatre audience. ' Selections included excerpts from "The Lilac Domino,'' u concert waltz an intermezzo, "Dardanelhi" and a war-time product, "Gen. Pershing March.'' The innovations wore appreciated ami Norma Talmadue's DrM special, "The Isle of Commcst" was very en joyable. Much of (he action takes place on an isolated island in the South Seas, and on the island many effective locations figure as back grounds. 0 AUo of particular interest are those scenes taken aboard a vaoht. These passages show the yacht tor pedoed at sea. and the subsequent shipwreck furnishes the incidents through which a man and woman find themselves alone on n Miiull island. The atmosphere of the picture car ried tho air of uood taste and iroiul breeding at all times, with the locale shifting from a fashionable bonrdini: school lo Palm lieaoh. and from other society centers to a tropical isle. This program will be repeatcu at;ain lodav and tomorrow. , ( MAIL TRIBUNE STRAW VOTE Write in the blank below the nuine of the man best (nulli fied in vour opinion to serve this .country as its president (lnriiiir the next four venrs and mail or brina: Hie ballot lo the Mail-Tribune office.
