The offering during the last half will be Mel Klee's unit show, presenting a high class musical, sung and dance revue. KITTY DONER GOMES BACK TO COLONIAL with dispatch takes her rightful place as a charming example of womanhood.

But Kitty is more than an impersonator. She is a singer and a dancer ard a comedienne too. Her drolleries are funny in the extreme. Tnen, a second feature on the bill Tom Waring, formerly soloist of Waring's Pennsylvanians, and a Victor artist. Tom, now on his own, made his debut as a singer in the London music halls on the occasion of the tour of England by the Pennsylvanians.

Harry Anger and Mary Fair in "Dizzy 1929" offer five hilarious flights of uproarious laughs. Miss Fair has weakness for beautiful gowns and ably displays them to her public. Mr. Anger is well known as one of Broadway's prime instigators of laughs. Page and Cortez offer a variety act entitled "A Night in Spain." As a don and a senorita, they sing, strum guitar, dance the fandango, do a little acrobatic work, a bit of gymnastics and disport themselves generally.

Beggars walk here with aore pomp and surety than burgomasters. Barkers yell at you from the brilliant fastnesses of fake auction rooms. Gyps of a hundred sorts run riot like rata. Craft and guile there are the eyes of Broadway, not the electric lights.

And hither flock the youth of the land with fine talent of sorts, to carve them out careers In the foyer of fame, and to stake out their claims for wealth; while the law of averages In; a manner of speaking looks on and smiles. With their material destinies, we are not specially concerned here; It is an economic treatise with a sardonic interest all its own. But what happens to their characters, is a sub ject of worthwhile speculation. When you come to New York to join the vast coterie of Broadway devotees a neophyte in the cult of lambent success, you can. do one of two things: You can kneel to the golden calf of smug pomposity and run the risk of lockjaw from over indulgence In yes-ing; or 'you.

can hold your head high and set out to bargain with fortune on' your own terms. On a similar count, you can sell your convictions for less then the price of a hair-cut or rear them as a strong wall about your self-respect. A fool and his manhood are soon parted. Some who simply did not belong, retire grandly, If not graciously, to a lone feast of sour grapes the conviction that they are too fine for Broadway. In this, they fail to understand either Broadway or A Story YOUTH-ON THE VAMP AGE!

In "Revenge" Dolores Del Rio Is neither the Russian Katusha Mas-lova nor is she tne Indian girl Ra-mona. It Is difficult to describe her. Truly she give a completely new and interesting characterization one of high dramatic tension, filled with barbarie splendor, colorful, glamorous and romantic.

"Rascha," as she Is called In the story, Is the daughter of a gypsy bear tamer living in the Carpathian mountain region of Roumania. She tames the bears with abandon and gleefully rules them into submission. Then "Rasha" tries to tame a man, "Jorga," In the same manner that she cracks her whip over the backs of the wild beasts. But in Jorga she has met her match. Wednesday William Russel in "The Head of the Thursday, "Apaches of Friday, Tim McCoy in "Beyond the Saturday, Charlie Murray in "Do Your Duty."

Miss Doner entered vaudeville about a year ago and was booked to play the Colonial in Allentown. She proved a sensation here Just as she is everywhere, Just as she was In the Winter Garden and the other big revue show places of New York city. Miss Doner is nothing short of marvelous.

Her various impersonations would deceive anyone as to her sex, but at the end of it all, Just to prove that she is after all a very feminine person with many, many, feminine charms, she doffs the male habiliments right on the stage where everyone can see and neatly and 4 HEAR AND SEE Planes Afire Miles in the Air Thousand of Planes in Battle Practice The Great Airplane Carrier "Langley" The Flight to Hawaii The Rivalry of Two.

New York, Feb. 2. Broadway is a finishing school for character in more than one sense: If you haven't much character, Broadway may be the finish of your little character; on the other hand, if you have real character, the kind that can stand brute abrasion like a diamond in the rough, New York's notorious thoroughfare will polish and finish it oft and make it a joy and pride to its possessor. Broadway puts up a tremendously bold, false front. Nowhere In the world is there so much obvious cheapness; so much vulgarity, so mucn braggadocio; and nowhere In world does mediocrity vaunt itself with such peculiarly deliberate abandon.

Audacity is Boad way's pet tradition and selfishness its password. Nowhere In the world are bad manners bo much in evidence people walk over you if you are down and under you if you are up. That is the psychology of Broadway. It is the golgotha of modesty. There is crookedness on Broadway, plenty of it, and criminality; and here dissipation hold court.

If the screen story portrays a less brutal lover than the song, it reveals a human story of tremendous heart appeal.
