RUSH SEATS .....................2%¢ SEE at the Press Agents Say About Coming Attractions What Wright Left. "What Wright Left" will. be pre- sented at the Grand, Thursday, Fri- day and Saturday. This bill {3 of exceptional worth, brim full of laughter. It is a straight. line of! |tfunny situations, splendidly handled, | interpolated with musical and dance! numbers. Mildred Vaughn will have an excellent part in this production. Miss Vaughn's rich sweet voice never fails to score. Ann Ott is another delight--this lady is a gleeful danc- er, going through her steps with all the grace and abandon of certainty.' "JiHer eccentric work is equally as! clever as the best on the musical] comedy stage. Raymond Marr, he| of "cut yourself a plece of cake," | fame, will play opposite Bob. Mr. Marr is a very young man, talented, much loose joints--He can dance with the best of them, and can do all | sorts of funny stunts. Fred Wright | has been with the Ott organization | since its first production, eight years | ago.--He is a very careful actor, and an excellent singer.--All of his make- ups are perfect. It is a pleasure to announce Fred Wright in '"What Wright Left." Those who have seen James Mack in the different produc- ticus, proclaim him a dignified per- former. We have watched all of his | performances, and we .can very truthfully say, that his work ranks {with the best of them. Mary Ott, | jpetter known as Mrs, Bob Ott, is ox- tremesy funny, as Ann. In this roe she has the cream of all the comedy | {lines, and situations. Her creation |1s quite quaint, and resembley the { 'Sis Hopkins" type. Louise Adams (has a part that fits her to perfection | --her singing and dancing are fea- jtures of the performance. The Breen sisters, the Kane sisters, Alice Down- ley, Lillian Green, Are all important | {members of this happy organization. Bob Ott does not need any introduc- tion to the Kingston public. His work, in the past, has been perfect in every respect, and one looks for- ward, every day, to his clever produc- tions. - | Mae Murray in '"Jazzmania." | The latest picture starring Mae! Murray is by far the best this un- usual star has made. "Jazzmania" is {te title and it won frequent out- bursts of spontaneous applause wherever the pioture has played. Miss Murray's most ardent admirers agreed that her new picture is sup- erfor in every way to "Broadway Rose,' "Fascination," or 'Peacock Alley," extraordinarily successful as these have been. "Jazzmania" will be the feature-attraction at the Al- len theatre starting Thursday. . No one can possibly say of this photo- play that it follows the beaten track. It Is one of the most original stor- ies seen on the motion picture screen in a long time. Its originality lies in the fact that it combines many familiar situations in a novel man- ner. 'Jazzmania' has the flavor of the best Mae Murray pictures in one: | yet It is totally different from any- | thing she has yet done. The film is the contribution of Robert Z. Leon- | Jard, who presents and directed it, to the vogue of costume plays. The greater part of the action takes place in.'the tiny kingdom of Jazzmanla, but it shifts to different parts of 'the world--to Paris, Monte Carlo and New York. In this ~ manner the! quaint customs of the imaginative | kingdom are contrasted: with the modern civilization of the leading cities, Miss Murray plays Queen ! Ninon, a pleasure-loving, piquant | personality, who escapes from her | kingdom to avert a revolution, and | then returns to it when her people | need her. Buster Keaton in his lat-| {est comedy *"The Boat" will have the | laudlence rocking with laughter. PARIS OF AMERICA IS SCENE OF PHOTOPLAY "The Paris of Latin America" on the screen. The life of one of the! most striking cities of the world has | at last come under the glare of the motion picture camera. The beautiful city of Buenos Afres, capital of the Argentine Republic, "the Paris of Latin America," is the locale of Sam Wood's new Paramount production "My American Wife," starring Gloria Swanson, which will be the feature at the Strand Theatre today. Although the city is the third larg- est In the western hemisphere, fol- lowing Chicago in population, and is second largest Latin oity in the world, being second only to Paris, its highly civilized and cultured people, its politics, its beautiful architecture and its fine art academies have been practically obscpire, because it is one of the few great cities of the world, the life and institutions of which have not yet been presented on the motion picture screen. "My American Wite," is practical- ly the first screen production which is entirely concerned with the people, architecture, customs and traditions of that great city, and for this reason will doubtless prove a unique revela- tion of an interesting, virgin locale. The picture is a romance, the prin- oipal characters being a young Ar- gentine politician and sportsman, and CULLEN'S CASH--ALFRED AND PRINCESS STREETS--CARRY Friday and Saturday MARCH 16th and 17th INONDAY age "GOOD BABY" ATES LTT AR TT es I Es Ts ROL Salada, Green, 3 1b.; 1 bar .
