last day of the fast sparkling comedy,
"Her Second Honeymoon" which is
making new friends daily for the
T'.randon Ftock and all the members.
The unnsj numbers this week are par
ticularly catchy, the wardrobe espec
ially attractive and the plot the most
interesting of all tbre Redmond pro
ductions. The stock company leaves
for Tucson tomorrow where they will
play for two days while the Robin
Hood company is filling- the engrajre
mont nt the Klks and will return on
Wednesday for a four days engagement
in ''Over the Harden Wall." The par
ticular feature, next week will be the

venirs, for their lady patron, the most
attractive ever given away by a stock

sift worth two or three times the ad
mission price.
MERRY MERMAIDS' MATINEE TO
DAY Mack's Merry Meramdis will feature
a matinee today, offering: that same
delightful program of music and mirth
that has scored so heavily with the
patrons of this .popular house during,
the past few days. Dolly Fowler in
her soubrette number is too captivating
to describe. Anita Meredith carries
the house with her specialty, while
Pat Patterson furnishes fun enough
to last a family a month. Victor Ver
non is happily cast while the Harmony
Trio never fail to bring forth a rous-
ng-round of applause with their num
bers. The Delightful Dancing Dollies
have several very pretty numbers in
this bill, which the grace with rare
style. This is a particularly well
drilled and costumed chorus and are a
decided asset with the show. The mo-
Ion picture is Vivian Rich starring in
William Fox's drama, "A World of
Folly."

"A Broadway Cowboy" Columbia
If all programs offered such refresh
ingly amusing features as William
Desmond's "A Broad wav Cowboy."
which opened at Mauk's Columbia the
ater yesterday, this world would be a
lot happier and healthicd. We wish all
photoplays were forced to come up to
the standard of this feature.
The story relates tho romance be
tween an actor and a romantic school
girl. She is a true Western girl, and
he's a true "native of Broadway.''
When his company tours the West
and he is the central object of a plot
of a sheriff who is in love with the
gni and jealous of the actor, he decides
that the West is too strenuous, and he
and Betty are going to stick close to
Broadway thereafter.
If tho laughter and joy that filled
Mauk's Columbia theater yesterday
when we saw William Desmond In "A
Broadway Cowboy" for the first time
could have been turned into motive
power it would have made Niagara
Falls run up hill.
This new feature isn't satisfied to
be just a drama, but it goes in for hi
larious comedy, spine-tingling melo
drama and wholesome romance. Go to
it, Bill Desmond, and give us more like
this one!
themselves of every opportunity. The
added attractions include the Fox New s.
showing the opening the state fair by
Governor Campbell, the Burton Holmes
travelogue, and tho comedy "Uncle
Tom's Caboose." Tomorrow starts the
"Who's Who in rhoenix-' contest, open
ing the engagement of "The World and
His Wife," starring Alma Rubens.
Toft's Country Club
Tonight is the time when the gayest
week end party ever seen is to be
started at Toft's County club where the
whole valley always goes on Saturday
nights. That wonderful music which
you raved so much about last week
will be back again this week to keep
you on the floor every minute from
the time you light until some w ee stna'
hour just whatever you might name.
Vou know there is no midnight clos
ing hour for the gay revelers at Toft's
Country club and now is the chance to i circuit this
dance on and on until for once you can
truthfully say that you have had enough
dancing for one evening.
And that great bundle of lucky spot
dances tonight will make you glad that
The American
Monday night he will be here when
tho first note is hit for the evening's
dance at the American. Frankio Far
num, tho lad who Harold Lloyd calls
"the wonder boy'' after seeing him
work in the movies where Harold can
really tell something about eleven and
unusual stuff- In fact, those who have
everything to do with booking the Or
pheurn circuit say that Farnum has
the only original act this year that can
he labeled entirely different. That's
what all the critics are one in their
criticisms of the bills in which FYankie
appeared. He started out to do a
terpise stunt with one of the young
atid clever stars of all vaudeville, but
so outshone his star at every angle
and turn that she soon was destined to
bo a back number in- her own act. In
fact, when they got into Chicago, her
own home town, the Chicago Tribune
said that she was the disappointment
of the bill and that Frankio was the real
star of the whole performance. And
then, at Keith's in Philadelphia the
critic again said that it was up to
Frankio Farnum to hold up the whole
bill and that his act alone was worth
the price of admission.
And Monday night Frankie will be at
the American to show all Ilioenix the
only original and different act that
has been produced on any vaudeville
year.
"Robin Hood" Coming to Elks
Oh, promise me, that some day you
and I
Will take our love together to some
sky;.
Where we can be aione and faii'u
renew.
And find the hollows where those
flow ers grew.
Those first sweet violets of early
spring.
Which come in whispers, thrill ufe both
and sing
Of love unspeakable that is to be,
Oh, promise me, oh promise fiie!
Tis famous old song is known to
every one who has ever heard "Robin
Hood" sung, but what they do not all
know is that it has no place in the
original score of the opera, but was an
interpolation like "The East Rose of
Summer" in "Martha." While Mr. De
Kovcn wroto the beautiful melody to
which it is sung, his collaborator, Har
ry B. Smith, did not write the lyric.
The words were written a number of
years ago by Clement Scott, the. famous
English critic, and were first read at
a luncheon in London, when Mrs. Ken
dal, the great actress, took pride in the
fact that the author had dedicated the
sentimental verses to her and read
them aloud.
Imagine her chagrin when the Coun
tess of Warwick unfolded a paper
with the identical verses upon it, which
Scott had dedicated to her fair self.
Before the luncheon was over, two
thirds of the fair sex present bad ex
hibited similar proof of chivalric at
tention. The song was first interpolated in
tho opera by Jessie Bartlett Davis, the
original Alan-a-Dalc of tho Bostonians,
and ever since it has had an honored
place in the second act. The words to
my mind run as follows:
Oh promise me that you will take my
hand,
The most unworthy in this lonely land,
And let mo sit beside you, m your eyes,
Seeing the vision of Paradise,
Hearing God's blessing while the organ
rolls
Its' mighty music to our very souls.
No love less perfect than a life with
thee.
Oh, promise me! Oh, promise me!
This famous opera, "Robin Hood," is
no wproduced by Ralph Dunbar and
will lie sting atAhe Elks theater Sun
day and Monday. Dec. 19-20. with a
popular matinee Sunday.

"The Squaw Man" at the Hip
"The Scmaw Man." which closes its
engagement at the Tip today, will rank
as one of the finest outdoor dramas
Cecil B. DeMille has ever offered. The
familiar stage success lias been made
by this genius into a gem of screen
classic. The cast includes such peo
ple as Ann Little, Elliott Dexter, The
odore Roberts, Jack Holt, and a score
of Paramount favorites. The action
follows cloesly the stage production,
revealing the life of the Englishman,
who, on reading- the western half of
the United States in the days of the
plainsmen, thought lightly of his af
fair with an Indian maiden until the
Indian maiden acquainted him with
the fact that she was about to become
a mother. Then all the manhood of
the white man came rushing to the
surface. Marriage to the Indian wom
an brings bim into disgrace by his
countrymen, into a despicable light in
the eyes of the English girl to whom
he was engaged to marry, but the
"squaw man" proved that he was a
gentleman and a man of honor, no mat
ter how great the test.
"A Son of the North" is an added
attraction.
