MONDAY—TUESDAY EDITH STOREY —i.v— The Legion of Death end like all Rood stories should, and it furnishes all sorts of trouble to the principals and amusement for the on lookers, it is reported. There are no stars in "When Dreams Come True," but there is an evenly balanced cast of clever young people in the leading parts, and a good-looking: and hard working singing and dancing chorus, which make for a smooth and snappy performance. For those who appreciate classic dancing, Maryon Vadie, assisted by Ota Gygi, an accomplished At the violinist, will hold out a Mnjcxtic strong appeal. That is the verdict of those who have seen this act in other towns. They are the feature attractions of the vaude ville program at the Majestic the last half of thig week, and are presenting an act that is reported to be not only beautifully staged and costumed but well presented. They say both are artists along different lines and to gether they present an act that is very high class. Plenty of comedy is also to be found on the bill. Val and Gamble, critics say. are two "comedy entertainers and put over a good laughing hit. A comedy sketch en titled "Pink Pajamas." is offered Ade laide Wilson and Company. Knowles and White, a clever duo in a bright song and patter skit, and Nolan and Nolan, novelty jugglers, complete the vaudeville list.

Mr. Irfjckwood has an excellent part in this picture, one which is crammed with adventure and romance. He is seen as the scion of a wealthy fam ily who doesn't care much for his job, and so he sets out to prove his theory that any man can extract his full measure of joy from life, no matter what his station. He succeeds, but not before lie has liad enough esca pades to last the modern young man for the rest of his days. A strong cast supports the star. 0 R PII EU M TONIGHT—Last Time THE CHARMING MUSICAL COMEDY OF YOCTII WHEN DREAMS COME TRUE 4 SKATS. 25c to $1.50 MATINEE & NIGHT TOMORROW Prices: Eve., $2 to 50c; Mat., $1.50 to 50c X.
