As in previous years. "Ex perience" is being presented under ihe management of the original pro ducers, Messrs. Elliott, Comstock and Uest. This is the fifth consecutive season lor George V. tloliart's mod ern morality play, and its success throughout the country in all that time lias been phenomenal, having scored a record second to none known to the theatrical history of a genera tion. The, play teaches in one short evening, the lesson that it takes so many a lifetime to learn, depicting as li does, the temptations confront ing Youth—or the average young man of to-day, who seeks fame and fortune in the great city. The pro duction is brilliant and magnificent, in ten scenes, each one allowing some different phase of the adventures of Xoutli. The Primrose Path, is a bril liant cabaret and restaurant scene, where forty stunning young women are gowned in the latest creations from Paris. They present a dazzling ! scene in their low-cut gowns and jew< led necks and arms. Some of the noteworthy players who will be seen here are members of the original pro duction. including, as they do, such we'l-known players as Raymond Van Vickie. Frazer Coulter, Marie Home, i Dorothy Newell, Duncan Penwarden, I Dodo Pernard, Marion Holconibe, I lObba Andrus, Harry J. Dane. Billy Betts, and mar.y others. Incidental music adds charm to the piece, and indeed, the producers have in every way endeavored to make this fifth big year of the famous morality ;druma a banner year, indeed. Those in search of good entertain ment will appreciate the vaudeville show appearing at the Ma tt the jestic to-night.. Following Majestic another thrilling episode if "The Lure of the Circus" are the Three Webber Girls, a clever trio, in songs, dances and acrobat ics. Eastman nnd Moore are a popu lur xluo, who offer an artistic singing act, and they are followed by "Jack" Kennedy and Company, in their laughable comedy skit entitled "A Gclf Proposal." "Billic" Elliott never fails to score a hit with his funnv line of comedy, and "The Honeymoon Inn." which closes the show, is a breezy little musical comedy with pretty girls, lots of comedy, singing and dancing. The early half of next week the feature attraction will be a. musical Plcylet presented by seven people en titled "Courting Days." Grouped around this offering are: Chinko and Minnie Kaufman, in Bits of Vaudc- I villc: Bennett and Richards, the "Dark Clouds;" otto and Sheridan, two girls in exclusive songs and ori ginal comedy, and one other act. "The Probation Wife" was shown to j capacity houses with pretty Norma Talmadge, our most I Norma versatile screen star,' Tiilmndgc and will be shown fori ill Colonial the last times to-night. I Each new characterize- . tion leaves one wonder at the remark able scope and grasp of this young I woman in dcliivating such a varied j number of ty . . Now it is as an in- [ mate of a notorious cafe dive, who \ is lescued front the mist by a heart-: sick and world-weary man. In bring ing about the girl's regeneration the | man iinds that he is also lifting him self from the depths. The climax is> a most sensational one. Thomas ' Meighnn. supporting the star, insures you of an excellent performance. Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday Alice Joyce will be seen in "The Lion and the Mouse." The romantic aspects of war are emphasized in "'The Mystery Girl," the Paramount picture At flic Urgent in which Ethel Monday-Tuesday Clayton is starred. From a story by Geotge Barr McCuteheon, who is known as one of America's most popu lar novelists, this story is said to give Miss Clayton a vehicle admirably suited to her talents. Like so many of Mr. McCutcheon's stories. "The Mystery Girl" has to do with a mythical kingd,om. But the I locals are realistic, being the west| front in France and the coast of Maine in this country. Ethel Clay ton is introduced as the Countess "Ted." alias 477. a motor ambulance driver in France. She and her uncle. Prince Sebastian, the ruler of Lurania, have been driven from their country by, the Germans. Prince Sebastian | giics to Green Fancy, Maine, and] wires for his niece to join him there. At the front she has been seen by Captain Tom Barnes. U. S. A., who is ordered home on leave, and who sees the Princess on the steamer again and falls in love with her. She is pursued by enemies and In an excit ing series of adventures in this coun try, Captain Barnes asists her and wins her love. Wounds and more wounds were Theda Bara's reward for playing in "When Men Desire." In Theda Bora one thrilling scene Miss at Victoria Bara has a hand-to hand tussle with a rival lover, who tries to shoot Lot" true lover. The man of her choice is hiding in a closet, and the murderous rival makes for the hiding place with a revolver. * The cruel rival wears an iron cross, and thereby hangs the tale. Every time Miss Bara Hung her arms about him to pull him away from the closet, the iron cross scratched her bare arms. The cameras were spinning, so the heroic star raised no outcrv. When the scene was completed she counted nine long scratches which the iron cross had inflicted upon her. "I hate to be scratched," declared Miss para. "But of all things I hate to he scratched by an iron cross even if it it is only a fake cross." "When Men Desire" is being shown to-day at the Victoria Theater for the last time. It Is a William Fox super production of thrilling interest.
