The story concerns itself with a pretty miss who sees much of life in the company of four men. Kach at different times of course. And each a different type of man, it might be added.

This picture comes to the Evans- ton theatre for one week starting Monday, July 28, heralded as the best comedy piece Gloria has been in. In the showing at Detroit, the Free Press had the following to say: "In Manhandled' Gloria comes forth as a comedienne--pert, vivacious and saucy. Her take-off of Charlie Chaplin is one of the cleverest bits of mimicry the screen has revealed in a long time." The Kansas City press and the Los Angeles papers have been pleased with the showing of Gloria in this picture.

"America is conquering Europe." says Dimitri Buchowetzki, Paramount pro- ducer. "Since the conclusion of the Oreat War, there has been a great flood of Americanism sweeping over Europe. "The surest sign of the greatness of a nation is its ability to influence others with its culture. All of the greatest empires of the past spread their ideals abroad. "In cafes and music halls American dances and American music are chief attractions. In the theatres, American motion picture is popular. business. American methods are sup- planting the slower methods of the European. . "European film producers are making every effort to model their production plan's upon those of Hollywood and New York."

It is a HOY BURS' The old-fashioned crook story of the screen is out-dated with the Thomas H. Ince production of "Those Who Dance." which comes to the Hoy burn theatre for three days starting Monday, July 28. The story transpires, for the most part, in the New York underworld, but instead of the usual underworld char- acters, the bootlegger, the hijacker and the other characters who have come into the limelight sii.ee the passage of the stage. The original situations which arise when a girl from the country (Blanche Sweet) drops in to get evidence to save her brother who has been "framed" are developed to make the picture worth seeing. "Being Respectable," which comes to the Hoyburn for three days starting Thursday, July 31, tells of an American family, rich and respectable, grown up with the city from pioneer beginnings.

Altogether I should say that "Manhandled" was worth a visit to inspect Miss Swanson in something VAUDEVILLE The warm weather seenis to have little or no effect on the audiences at the Majestic. Possibly it is due to the fact that the old custom of shut- ting down on the good acts and slid- ing by on most anything, is no longer in favor. This past week saw at least three excellent features leading in ap- proval at the Majestic. Jack Hanley is back, the funniest comedy juggler on the circuit. Then there was the O'Brien Sextette with a good musical act. And strange to say, one or two of them could really sing. As a head- liner, the Six Chicago Steppers, were fairly well received. They presented a series of popular and classical dances. EXHIBIT PROVES THE FACTS Weapons, chains and rich garments worn by Milton Sills in "The Sea Hawk" have been brought on from I.OS Angeles and are here on display outside the Roosevelt theater, where the Frank Lloyd production is play- ing. Pikes used by the Spanish armed guards on board the galleons; bows and arrows used by the Saracen archers scimitars, boots, turbans ;,„d cloaks have been mounted, so that the State street crowds may note the thoroughness with which "Th, Sea Hawk" was nude. Ominous looking legirons, with which the galley slaves were chained down to the oars are among the trophies, all of which are exact duplicates of sixteenth century articles described by Sabatini in his novel.
