HEAR IRENE BEWLEY IN
MOUNTAINEER SKETCHES.
Miss Irene Bewley, known as the
Ambassadress of the southern moun-
taineers, is to appear in Bellefonte on
Thursday evening, January 290th, in
the Presbyterian chapel, at 8:15
o'clock.
“ “Do fiot™ Tet” this Bpportdhity™ Hip
by. Even though you may have to
give up some other engagement you
will find it well worth your while to
see and hear this woman of the
Hills, She brings before her audi-
ence the mountaineer, who is just
like other folks just as good, just
as bad—and just as progressive, and
yet with the picturesque quality
given him by his years of environ-
' ment peculiarly his own.
Have you a ticket for the south-
ern mountaineer sketches on “Tales
of Tennessee Hills?" This will prob-
ably be your one and only chance
to see and hear Irene Bewley. In
many of the large centers of the
United States and Europe she has
repeatedly appeared, but this is the
first opportunity that this State has
had to get a block of her time. Let
us show our appreciation by turning
out an audience that will make her
eager to come back.
It is rare that an artist who has
been sponsored by nation-wide con-

“THE MAN WHO CAME BACK” .
AT RICHELIEU NEXT WEEK
Ameica's popular sweetheart in
the screen's gripping drama for the
year, Janet Gaynor, the feminine
half, and Charles Farrell, the mas-
culine half, again appear together
in “The Man Who Came Back.”
Farrell interprets the part of a rich
man's son ruined by wealth and
Miss Gaynor plays a little cabaret
singer who helps him fight his way
back to society and decency. It is
a very powerful story of regener-
ation portrayed by two of the very
capable performers on the talking
screen today. It is without question
a gripping drama. Janet Gaynor and
Charles Farrell form an irresist-
ible attaction at the Richelieu thea-
tre next Monday, Tuesdayand Wed-
nesday.

TOMORROW NIGHT
AT THE RICHELIEU
Would a notorious criminal who,
through a miracle of surgery, is giv-
en another man's honored place in
society, including the faith of that
man's wife, keep his secret identity
if he loved the woman, or would
he insist upon earning the right to
her respect and love?
That is the perplexing problem
which Edmund Lowe faces in “Scot-
land Yard”, the intensely human Fox
Movietone drama of double identity
which comes to the Richelieu Satur-
day. Edmund Lowe portrays both
a criminal and a gentleman in this
dual role. Joan Bennett, who por-
trays the feminine lead, succeeds
admirably in bringmg conviction
and pathos to a role that demanded
these qualities when confronted with
one of the most amazing dramatic
problems over screened.
