She passed me by—her nose upturned We'll never speak again. I've learned My lesson better than she knows. Now I'm the dirt beneath her dancing toes. Its not the first time she has spurned ; A poor fool whose empty head was turned By her dainty manner, her exquisite clothes, Her beauty and her haughty pose. And now / publish what the world discerned— She passed me by! But still my heart has madly yearned And wished the foolish days returned. • My love is even greater and it grows / Each day, although the whole world knows That in a manner nonchalant and unconcerned She passed me by! \ THE LESSON.—Another of a Collection of Poems by Grace Adame, Talented School Girt, Member of the Kate Douglas Wiggln Family. _ _________—:-1 _c^BJiCw/a___, mM ^Herman <rWe6er « M at the. EMPRESS 1 H P £dna. .Gouey '* gj at thoWORLD ||||j r~~-\ Girl Act of Note Tops List Set for World This Week y -': Covey Sisters, two of vaudeville’s | cleverest dancers, bring their all I girl revue to the World theater this j week as the headline attraction of an entertaining 6 act bill. The sisters present their spectacle j alive with color and enhanced by I beautiful costumes. Nolan Leary, supported by a com- j pany including Helen Keith John- ' stone, offers Howard Emmett Rogers' new comedy, "Yes Means No.” The laugh situations are built on a boy’s contract with his wealthy father to always say "No" and never say "Yes." Moro and Yaco, playing vio lin and accordion, offer a novel mu sical program intermingled with com edy. Freddie Walker and Shirley Green, natives of Omaha, are making their first local vaudeville appear ance in a comedy singing and talking act called "What’s It All About.” Among the popular elements of the bill is La Rosarita Trio, an all girl dancing aggregation. Their dancing is of the cyclonic kind and attractive ly staged. In a routine of descriptive song* and dances, Billy Purcella, mu sical comedian, present* an act that is the epitome of speed. The Car mondy Dancers are one of the head line features of an all comedy 6-act bill scheduled for the week starting next Saturday. / ] ■ ■ • Cowboy Comedy Gives Billy Van Allen His Chance at Empress v_/ Billy Van Allen Is back in the cast nf the Bert Smith players at the Ktnpress this week in his favorite old man characterization as the prin clpar comedian of a breezy western musical comedy, "Bar Z Ranch.” Out to the lair of the irrepressible cow puncher and the vivacious cow girl a number of city folks come on busi ness, adventure and recreation. Van Allen as “Doc Rue,” a confirmed woman hater, falls for the lures of a city widow. Funny Hatfield as Mrs. Arabella Marshall has a part that elicits spontaneous laughter. VI Shaf fer, as Madge Marvel, Is a breezy western cow girl type. Madeline Lees takes the part of Florence Curtis of the Denver 400 and sole owner of the j Bar Z Ra nch. Tommy Warne Is the | ranch foreman and Herman Webber portrays the part of a western gam bler and villain. Warren Fabian as “Moqul” Is a Mexican despicable cut throat. Among the song numbers are “Mighty Like a Rose,” "Hard Heart ed Hannah.” "Crying Over You," \ly Broadway Girl," “Smiles" and "Hula Lu.” The feature photoplay Is “Fool lsh Parents.” /-_ s Some New Stunts Mark Season for Columbia Burlesque v__ s With the Inauguration of the lflth regular theatrical season at the Oay ety theater this afternoon with pres entations of the new musical bur lesque. "Hollywood Follies," several Innovations In the manner of offering Columbia burlesque will be Introduced and continued throughout the season. In the first place the chorus ladles have been trained In the Columbia Burlesque School of Instruction In New York, and thus will be assured “team work” nmong the members of the ballet unusual In such organlzn tlons. Hath of the 40 shows presenting Columbia burlesque require an aver age of 20 choristers and to secure SCO girls competent, to sing, dance and execute the maneuvers of the many musical numbers has long been a problem with the producers While there are plenty of girls anxious to appear In choruses the requirements of the work eliminates so ir.any of tham that It finally became necessary for Columbia burlesque to assemble and train most of its choristers. The matter of lighting the stnge for the various changes has also been approached In a new method and n •pedal stage lighting equipment foi electrical Illumination has been ee tabllshed In all theaters on the Co lumbla Wheel. This new methm gives brilliancy when required and also provides the softer tones for >ther scenes that furnish desired con rast and effective Illusion. Still another Innovation will appear n the bills that are posted on boards ind walls and In the newspaper ad vertising. To keep the public mind •entered on the fact that Columbia ntrlesque is different In moBt essen ials from ordinary ‘'burlesque” the idvertising material will carry In all -uses the slogan "Columbia Burlesque —Always a Good Show.” It is be lieved that this constant repetition will protect the theater going public from inferior entertainment and will ouple "Columbia Burlesque” with the perpetual assurance of entertain ment appealing to the whole family. “Hollywood Follies,” Joe Hurtig's Shoio, Breaks Open Gayety v_/ With a dally matinee, Joe Hurtlg's "Hollywood Follies” conies to tho Gayety theater this afternoon as next week's attraction. “Hollywood Fol lies” is the Columbia Burlesque that registered such a success In New York city two months this summer. For many weeks It packed the Colum bia theater on Broadway to the doors with large and enthusiastic audiences. It Is promised In almost Its origi nal entirety to Its patrons in this city. There are two acts and eight novel and attractive scenes on display in this piece, with 15 tuneful musical numbers and many changes of ex quisite costumes. Twenty-four come ly and well trained choristers assist , capable cast In the entertainment, leading the latter list are Marty Col lins and Jack Pillard as featured comedians, while others In the com puny worthy of note Include Jimmy Connors, A1 Sterne, Jacque Wilson, Juliette Belmont, Marie Ward, Ray Vee, Myles Oliver, Paddy Cliff and May Kennedy. The big feature act of the show Is the “Hollywood Sere nades," one of the greatest comedy bands the stage has ever offered. To day s matinee starts at 3:00; the la dies' bargain matinee at 2:15 dally, starting tomorrow.
