P' IN THE P FRONT ROW HEADLINER8 TONIGHT Musical Comedy. Hippodrome Buster Browr Photoplays, fe ' Nelson ...The Poppy Girl's Husband |&t Dixie "Too Many Crooki jftiPrincess Some Bride Eg.' |T .was a crowded house that last . I night witnessed at the H pp the )&', *B?st performance of "Bustet Brown," and later got ample fun out ?- Of the country grocery store. Schultze fig;'" graciously loaned bis store for the occasion ,and everything went just fine. As on the first night, little June Henrlcl was the big favorite ol . the evening, and she performed her ' aeroplane stunt coming out over the Bti; :StUdience just like a regular Ruih Law. This little prodigy has a future tfc of great promise, and should she fol?.?' : low the profession she will achieve jir .> things worth while, it becomes more evident all the while that Lamar was a- cut out ror the part of Schultze the K Je; grocer. His work on the stage indif'J;' cates that "he Is no beginner, fot Pf't training has made him a finished actor. Billy Malone seemed more al home last night than usual and with St the addition of a few lines all the way through, the comedy was made much keener, parts that one would think good for a laugh, however, fall flat Ian't it funny, for Instance to imagine building the steeple of a church first and then pushing the church undet . It? Maybe Clal Stewart took the e-igo off the Idea when he suggested to the board of "skule" directors that they "build the r.ew skulehouse out of the \- bricks o fthe old skule house, and tJ that they do not tear down the old Bkulehouso until they get the new skule house built." But sometimes there were regular uproars where there seemed to be less provocation and the average was allright. Ruth Dale was al! smiles last night because she had her audience going right. oFur or five encores made the cleve: little lady feel that she was appreciated. After the matinee there Is lust one more opportunity to sec Buster In his funny tricks, unless the company agrees to put it on again which it seems would not be a bad Idea as the bill is one of the best shown. Convict, Bill Hart With hair cropped to ugly prison style and clothed in drnbprlson garth B1U Hart comes to the Nelson again this week, playing there the last time tonight In "The Poppy Girl's Hus band," a picture which has a tenden , cy 10 onn atowiy at times, but which must proceed it a measured mannei to keep from squandering the psychological merits of the picture. Going to the core of the matter, the at Utude of convict toward his faithless wife can not be shown in an instant there must be a succession of events leading up to a climax. The picturf proves on the serin only, that Hill Hart is as handy v;h a burglar'ss kit as he is witih a six-shooter, another way of saying that the Western character is not the only on that Bill can portray with success. Hart's antics with the boy Georgio Stone form an interesting chapter in the story, and tho young artist himself takes th' Juvenile part with amaing cleverness. 1 "Crooks'' not "Cooks." A paraphrase seemingly on the well known words of an old adage. "Toe many Cooks.' etc., is the subject ol the picture at the Dixie todoay. and as we see the story, it reads, "Toe Many Crooks.' It is taken from the novel by E. J. Roth, and gives Gladys Letlle abundant opportunity to exercise her boasted talent. Same Program at Princess. No change at the Princess today the Metro comedy "Some Bride" re pealing with a Pathe news reel alsc on the program. CLOSE UUPS. J. J.
