REGENT. “Fashion Row" Mae Murray's newest picture. “Fa- shion Row." the mat. extravagant in which she has yet been presented. will be offered at the Regent theatre for a three-day! engagement be- ginning todny. S. 2. Inonard directed Miss Murray in this picture and the previous successes of the star for which Mr. Leon ard is entitled much credit are eclipsed by this new pro. duction. Miss Murray is one of the few stars of the screen who can combine effectively the brilliant tal- unt of an ncims with the charm of gorgeous gowns. The setting for “Fashion Row" in lavish to any the least and throughout the picture is one that stands far above the medi- ocre. It is an attraction that Regent putrons will be delighted with. PALACE. "Wild Bill Hickok.” William 8. Hart has come back strong as a screen favorite. This is proxed conclusively by the enthualo usm which has attended the presen- tation of his new picture. “Wild Bill Hickok" at the Palace theatre since Monday. and doubtless the last. show- lnre today will be marked by ce- pncity audiences. Hart always was popular and his to retry retire- ment has only served 0 quicken the admiration of a very large group of theatre-goers. "““ild Bill Hickok" in incidentally one of the best screen vehicles with which Hart or any other star has ever ben identified. There wil be a. children's matinee at (:00 o'clock this afternoon. A rollicking song and dance ro— vue with some Scotch begpipe num- bers will be presented at the Pal- ace theatre for the last three days or the week‘ by the Rose Maura.
