Ed. C. Nutt Tent Show
After two -weeks of phenomenal suc
cess and being highly " elated over the
liberal patronage given them, Ed. C.
Nutt Comedy Players, now playing, in
the big tent on Garden -and Spring-sts.
start in on their third week , of their
engagement with what will be con
sidered ; by : their many friends and
patrons to be a week of entertainment
and one that will linger long in the
minds of their, patrons when it comes
to, -things theatrical." By special ar
rangement with his play brokers, Mr,
Nutt has secured, what he terms two
of the very best plays offered for
stock; purposes, presenting Monday,
Tuesday and "Wednesday a play dis
couraging the divorce question, "The
Fighting Parson." It has plenty of
good comedy running throughout the
action, of the play and one that of
fers, laughs, thrills and tears. Com
mencing .with special Christmas day
matinee and continuing throughout the
balance " of the
another of TV. C. Herman's successes,
"Th Millionaires Son and, The Shop
GirL" This play tells a story of a girl
Who had no mother to guide her and
shows the many temptations offered
some working girls and how. easily it
is to resist them. Eoth of these pro
ductions tare clean, clever and compell
ing and with the new vaudeville fea
tures introduced' ' between act3 the
theatre goers may look forward to an
evenings entertainment that will over
shadow the . former successes- of this
wonderful company. V
Charles Ray has one of the most
strenuous fights of his screen career
in the Thomas H. Ince photoplay.
"Crooked Straight" which is at the
Isis theatre today. - And Mr. Ray has
had some fights in the past. This one
however, laid. him up for three days.
The scene takes place on a stairway
and after a dramatic struggle Charlie
several feet beyond the foot. The wind
was completely knocked out of him and
he had to be picked up and helped to
!a comfortable chair after the camera
quit grinding. That scene ended work
for several days. The result on the
screen justified the price Mr. Ray
thought, as it i3 a fine bit of realism.
"Talk about your ring fights such
as I had in The Egg Crate Wallop,
tsaid Mr. Ray "a regular ring battle
is nothing compared with one of these
rough-and-tumble scraps on stairs
With all my training with the gloves
m the gymnasium and the grilling I
took , in the last picture I didn't sus
tain one-third the bruises that I did
in this one. I'm glad it is done. I do
hope the 'public appreciates that fall,
for I consider myself. - lucky - not ; to

William Desmond, the star with a
smile in every punch, blarneys and
fights his way through five thrilling
reels in "The Blue Bandanna," his
latest production. f-
"The Blue Bandanna" is an original
story by Eugene B. Hewis, made under
the direction of Joseph J. Franz for
Robertson-Cole release.
This story of the west as Jerry
Jerome (Desmond), a young New Tork
millionaire found it. When the doctor
told Jerry his hemoglobin was forty
points shy, which accounted for several
cylinders in his brain motor missing,
Jerry hiked for the west in order to
get away from the excitement of Wall
Street and feed on the mental pap of
the. wild and wooly. -
But Jerry ran into more excitement
In, Wyoming in a few weeks than-the
bulls and bears of ' the street" had ever
stirred up. The stage driver told him
"they ain't no excitement in the west
no more," but Jerry hadn't been there
twenty-four . hours when the bandits
got busy. ,
Jerry got busy, too, and with the erU
thusiasm of a kid started out to em
ulate Nick Carter and run the bandits
to earth. When he found one of the
bandits was the father of the girl he
had fallen in love with, and was an ex
con vlct besides, it complicated matters
all around, v.. -
Desmond was never better than in
this role, and that is saying a lot, for
the genial William has had some splen
did mediums for his talent in his recent
productions.
Jean Acker wins new favors in the
role of Ruth Yancy. Others in an ex
cellent cast are Russel Simpson, Frank
Lanning and Richard La Reno. ,
.The management of the Liberty thea
tre always having in mind to offer
the patronage the best that comes this
way has secured the great masterpiece
sensational super photo drama "Your
Wife and Mine," featuring the cele
brated English actress Eve Dorrington
supported by an unusual strong com
pany. This picture has wen photo
graphed without regards to cost of pro
duction and the lavish display of cos
tumes is ' something wonderfull.
."Your. Wife and Mine," deals with
one of the greatest moral problems In
