HL i 10 GOODWIN'S WEEKLY y( ' W . With The First Nighters & I B , I r-k. 1 0R" Ule ,lrSt tllU0 B' Hi m m 1 in many moons B : b II Terpsichore has M I V 1 been relegated H" 1 I to the shelf at B 1 gg" mi" the Orplleum and B it is really a re- H v lief to sit through an evening in a B playhouse and ibe entertained with a B program that does not feature abre- fl viated skirts and ankles shapely and H otherwise. The bill contains plenty M of clean-cut comedy and excellent H music. H Those old time veterans of the min- H strel stage, Mclntyre and Heath, are H the headliners and are still in their H ' glory. As fun-producers, they head H the list of all black-face acts. "The H "Man From Montana," their skit for H the opening night, is filled with the H finest kind of fun-making. They pre- H spnt three different sketches during H the week and each one is a scream. Hj It is always good to see these cele- H brated comedians in action. H Most delightful is the musical num- H ber in which Vivian Holt, operatic so- H prano, and Lillian Rosedale, pianist H composer appear. Miss Holt has a H beautiful voice and her group of H stories in music are most pleasing. H Miss Rosedale is an accomplished H pianist and has a beautiful voice and H the duct with Miss Holt, "A Little Bit H of Honey," was as pleasing a. number H as anyone might care to hear. H Frank Crumit, who is billed as a Bj comedian who can sing, play instru- H ments and tell a story, is most re- H (freshing. His press agent made no B mistake in lauding him, for his songs H have an unusual charm, in that they B are the old-time melodies the kind H that everybody likes and his stories H are also well chosen and clearly told. M An old Salt Lake favorite, Regina H Cornell!, who ,was with the old Wil- H lard Mack stock company, with Ruby H .Craven presents a skit, "Moondown." Bj It is a pleasing sketch. fl Singing their own songs, Jim and H 'Betty Morgan have an act that makes B them favorites with all. Their instru- B mental renditions are likewise excel B B Three Japanese, the Kanazawa B Boys, athletes and one of whom is a ' clever comedian, open the bill with a B pleasing prelude to the other excellent B numbers on the program. H H . PANT AGES !y HERE is an acrobatic act at Pan Vtages this week that shows the ' capabilities of women. The Donals ft f Sisters are the principals and tliey R' are the personification of physical per- B-v fection. The two are handsome and m$ shapely and their feats of strength B. are really wonderful. The act is a Bjf novelty. Tropical birds in all their gorgeous plumage are introduced by Mabel Nay non in an act demonstrating the re markable training of the feathered tribe. The feats they perform border on the miraculous. The collection of birds number more than one hundred. Then there is the vaudeville trav esty, "Well, Well, Well," in which Dol lie Lewis and Frederick Wallace are afforded a medium for introducing a number of funny features, Miss Lewis especially being a very clever comedi enne. As a character comedienne Alice Hamilton has few equals. In her quaint costume of an old-time grand mother she presents a sketch, "The New Sphere of Womanhood," which is most pleasing. In their skit, "A Scotch Highball," Byal and Early have a decidedly funny net. Miss Early has a make-up that would make a wooden image laugh. "The Atlantic Revue" is, as its title indicates, a musical comedy contain ing some catchy music, including sev eral of the good old numbers of the long ago. There are also a couple of good comedians who, with the shapely chorus, handsome costumes ard pretty stage effects, comprise a rattling good number. A film comedy featuring Fatty Ar buckle, and the music of Gronneman's orchestra complete the bill. "TURN TO THE RIGHT' ijtf WHEN Winchell Smith and John mJ L.

JJHE "Show of Wonders," greatest 1 V- of all famous New York Winter Garden shows, which comes to the Salt Lake theatre for three nights be ginning February 21st, demonstrates the admirable results achieved in a theatre where there is skilled organi zation. The organization of the New York Winter Garden is the most per fect of any establishment In any the ter in the world. All departments are under the direction of the most expert artists and workmen. The result of this efficiently organized system is the production of extravaganzas on the largest possible scale and in the most perfect manner. The training of the chorus, both in singing and dancing is productive of the greatest expertness known to any theatre. In this latest offering con ceded to be the very best of all Win ter Garden shows, the appeal of the chorus has been greatly enhanced by the careful selection of the very pick of the most beautiful young women on the Winter Garden chorus lists. Just to feast the eye on them would be worth the price of admission even without the superb stellar cast and fif teen glitering, glorious stage setting, including the thrilling "Over the Top." NOTED BARITONE TO SING HE announced coming of Reinald vl Warrenrath, the American bari tone, makes timely reading of a few criticisms he has received at the hands of writers in other cities, and a few lines from the Chicago American are quoted herewith: "Mr. Warren rath exhibited a combination of quali ties which place him easily among the representative lieder-singers of the in ternational concert world. His sing ing of several art songs was the finest bit of draamtlc song characterization heard in a recital this year." I in ia Mwiiiiiiim i mm im.iitaaMagaamma Armaa
