Manager David Esterson has picke
ed another blue ribbon» winning
vaudeville show for the Palace the-
ater this week and the bill is one
that will immediately commend. it-
self to the particular entertainment
seekers or this city._ Fay and Weston
Revue is a jazz band organlnatlon
that ranks with the top-notchsrs oi
vaudeville. This act is without doubt
one or the very best on the stage
and it will make a decided hit in the
Nerwaiks. Ruffles.— an act with live
people. presenting the “Fashions or
1924" is not only entertaining but a.
pleasing novelty. The men will like
this act. but the women will find
more than entertainment. in it. Jack
Sidney. a comedian of note will ap-
pear single and offer a program that
is going ov er \ery big. Leonard and
Gerard in songs and dances and
Terez and LaFlor. in a little bit of
everything are the other acts of the
splendid show. The feature picture
{or the last three days of the week
will be William Farnum’s new pro-
duction "The Gun Fighter." All in
all, the show is one of the very best
that has been offered in NONI“: in
months and this is saying something'
after the high commendation won
by the shows oi the pest seicrei

When Bessie Barriscaie returned
to Broadway with her husband after
a. very long absence. they met a
theatrical promoter who insisted
that he had "a. good thing" which
he wanted to let them "in" on. An
interview was arranged.
“'e have incorporated for forty
thousand dollars.” the promote:
told Misc Barr-iconic and Mr. Hick-
man. "and plan to lease “a Broad-
way thentrgior a full season and
make at least five productions to
cost not less than ten thousand .lol-
lars each. Our plan provides that
the fifty thousand may be extended
to a hundred thousand dollars."
"That‘s very nice,” Mr. Hickman
answered, but not with enthusiasm.
“Has your stock been printed?"
"Oh. fie." he answered. "but We
haven‘t gotten it yet. The printer is
waiting for fifteen dollars."
