It is guaranteed by your re viewer to make you forget the weather, your troubles even that little red tag some nervy cop tied on your auto. Try it! Carry Off Honors Dwight Meade, Frank Munnell and Edward Emerson carry off the big bundles of laurels. You folks who think only of Mr.

Meade as the dashing young lover, go around and see him as the middle aged English hating Yankee Shoe Manufacturer. That fellow fits in any where. Has Important Sole Eddie Emerson has the most important role in his Harrisburg career and leaves little to be expected. One of these days some Broadway Scout is going to breeze into Harrisburg and kidnap that lad. Watch out Mr.

Wallace. Tops Feminine List Mrs. Morgan Wallace, to our way of thinking, captures feminine honors. She is charming as the chaperon turned matchmaker. A Yankee Hater Frank Munnell fSir Pprrv Ttpan champ), is in one of his best char gentleman in his native hunts.

He has even less time for the Americans than Hiram Draper has for the English. That's saying considerable. Hear them rave. Here's The Plot The plot? Almost forgot! A man and a maid and parents a loggerheads (at least I think, so). That's enough to start a show.

The Drap ers invade England. Hiram, Sr. has his eye on a shoe factory. Junior has his on a charming English girl, Elinor Beauchamp, (capably impersonated by Hazele Burgess). How It Ends Somehow things go round and round with a laugh in every line.

Sou tt hZI ami wm 4 or Wis State Star; 'So This Is London ''MMajesfic "Rookies'Tickles Monday Fans at Regent Theater In 'Hookies" the Regent is of' fering, this week, a superlative comedy, not merely the chuckling kind, but one which la packed full of gruffawg, carries with it a dainty love story and provides a few thrills, not the least of which is an escape from a' balloon.

The story of "Rookies" is built around, the adventures of a rooky I and a hard boiled army sergeant in a citizens military training camp. It starts out with Sergeant Disss, portrayed by Karl Dane, drifting into the Casa Diabolo cafe. There i Diggs meets Gregg Lee, played by' George K. Arthur, a dancer. I Diggs is a presumably typical oldtinie sergeant with a lingo all his own, and with his Inevitable I chew of tobacco.

Lee, the. dancer, is the exact opposite, immaculately dressed, perfectly manicured and the dilettante. Each tries to make the life of the other as miserable as possible. In addition to this feature film there Is a news reel of topical events, including the midwest cyclone of last week and further scenes of the Mississippi. A second comedy "Creeps" also is provocative of much fun and on the stage is Frosini, premier accordionist, who is worthy of the hearty reception he received last night.

M. E. X. Mouth Organ and Wanda Hawley Are State Features "Learn to play the harmonica and become popular over night" Yes, folks, it's true It. you don't believe it you must see Ted and Al Waldman, in "Blu logy," at the State, first half this week.

The boys aTe good. After clowning about as two blackface hotel porters, the boys get down to work. First, a clever accompaniment with a bow and saw. And then That ol' harmonica stuff starts. Boy, how, it can wail and moan just like a whole orchestra.

Now a saxophone in misery, wails and squeaks; then a blaring trumpet; finally an accordian, with a native Italian boy in charge. Yes they're good. Besides this, Wanda Hawley, the real Wanda Hawley, the movie actress, and two boy friends, put on a comic skit on married life. In keeping with the occasion, the setting is an arena. A real gong marks time and a dutiful butler calls the shtits.

Ross and Duross put on a catchy song and dance act. Carrie Lillie, singing comedienne, sings several droll songs and recites. Carr brothers and Betty, in a strong man act, close the bill. The boys are good, doing several unique balancing acts. Betty dances with ability.

The photoplay is "Madame Wants No Children." DIXIE. Helps With Plowing Lock Haven, May 17. Miss Kathryn Wagner, of McEIhattan, is helping her father, J. C. Wagner, with, the spring ploughing, and can turn a furrow as well as the most experienced agriculturist.

CLOWN UNCLE TO BABIES AT CIRCUS wQ .1 it There are babies in plenty with the Kingling Brothers and Earnum and Bailey combined shows this season. Twelve elephant youngsters, ranging in age from IS months to 3 years old, occupy two of the five rings along with the grown up pachyderms in performance. Then there is "Baby Dolly," who does nothing but beg for peanuts and keep company with "Old John," the veteran, in the menagerie lineup. Other four footed babies include a zebra two wooly camels, three Shetland colts, five tiger cubs and as many lion whelps. A.

baby seal is another menagerie novelty. Though it is not probable that the big top pageant will be em bellished by the addition of baby visitors when the combined circus exhibits here June 4 at 21st and Greenwood streets, it is promised that the tournament will contain much to entertain those kiddies who view it from the audience. All clowns are uncles to juvenile visitors to the circus, you know. ETTAKETT "CO EDS" stOm Sf'tlBl V'J i oast lose Aw I know our at. uow sou Oorr I "3e0HSe.UIAD SSAUM SlffiP OVER.

Miss Mack takes the part of a Southern belle. The story takes place in Big Shanty, in tha time of 1862. Buster Keaton takes tha role of a young Southerner, Johnnie Gray, who has tried to enlist in the Confederate but who has been refused on the ground that he is of 'more value to the cause as the engineer of "The (In those days, railway locomotives were known by names Instead of numbers). His sweetheart and all his friends believed that he was a slacker and thought that his railroad job was merely a subterfuge. After he rescues his engine and his sweetheart in a raid and gives warning to the Confederate leaders of a Northern raid, he is allowed to enlist in the army and is appointed as lieutenant.

Of course, the story ends where the heroine forgives the nero and welcomes him to her arms. picture was produced for laughing purposes, but is historically accurate and does in no way burlesque the days of '62.

Tom Mix Scores Again in Week's Colonial Feature Tom Mix again scores in the "Broncho at the Colonial this week. For some reason each Tom Mix picture seems better than the one before and this is especially true of this film. It is a story of the Western ranges that has a romantic flavor, characterization and plot development to start with. Add to this a fine cast and splendid scenic backgrounds and' you have a picture that offers good entertainment. There is action, suspense, laughter, thrills, hair raising stunts, with Tom Mix starring in the latter.

More than that Mix does not have any one double for him even in the most dangerous scenes. He even seems to, enjoy them. The story is about a Marine who returns from the war to find his father desperately fighting an outlaw ranchman who is trying to drive him off the range. Tom frustrates this and while doing it falls in love with the ranchman's step daughter. The working out of the plot is of absorbing interest.
