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.

wonderful show, even when compar

ductions. Take for example the cast
of this production. No vaudeville
theater could afford to give a bill as
pretentious as it is. It includes such
favorites as: Eugene and Willie How

Arthur Davis, Edmund Mulcachey,

there are fifteen stage pictures, in

sational thrillers produced in seasons.
There are also 150 people, including a
chorus of picked beauties.

"A Dog's Life" is the title of the
Chaplin comedy showing at the Vic
toria. The picture
Charlie Chaplin was heralded as
at the \ letorln very good. Chap
lin and a dog lvad a
dog's life together. Charlie sees a
pack of dogs pounce upon one small
dog and he goes to its rescue and'only
succeeds after being chased by the
bunch of dogs, who turn upon him.
The rescued dog and Charlie become
exhibited in the Bride Shop of Mosher
and Simpson. "Flo-Flo" boasts that it
is the only comedy chorus ever as
sembled for a Broadway appearance.
Each one is also a "perfect thirty
six." The trick hats of Pinky and
Aloyslus, two nimble young men who
assist in rescuing Angelina Stokes
from n bogus count and restoring her
fast friends and the many experiences
make reels of laughs. Everywhere
