Orpheum Players in "Camille" Tonight witnesses the first performance of the sixth week of the popular Orpheum Players led by Don Burroughs and Kathleen Comegys. Starring in a play which has called forth the efforts and talents of the best stars of the stage in both this and last generation; "Camilla" the dramatic story promises to be a play which is going to-attract capacity houses at every performance. It was by popular request that "Camille" was produced.

'And a tribute to the Players it is, that this classic of the stage should be asked for. ''Camille" is the story of a notorious Parisian, who finds her love in a young law student. Together they find their happiness in the country but it is necessary to love and funds are low. He and she without the other knowing make great sacrifices, but they are intercepted by the young man's father when visiting Camille he extracts a promise from her to have nothing to do with his son. How Camille lives up to this promise even though it costs her the sole happiness of her life; how she dies with her memories and at the very end happy in the presence of her lover; these form a most interesting story.

For the week commencing May 15 "The Trail of the Lonesome Pine" will be the attraction. $25.00 Given Away at Majestic This Week A guessing contest is being conducted at the Popular Majestic Theater starting toilay along with the splendid Keith Vaudeville offerings of five excellent Keith and Orpheum Circuit features, including Harry Breen oh. what a nut; famous Sylvester family, vaudeville's supreme variety novelty, Van and Belle, some stunts look out for the Boomerang; Oliver and Nerritt.

Speeds Up the Hens TJONNAIR, Maj 8. M. B. Seitz, one of the most prominent farmers of Bonnair, York County, has devised a system, to make hens lay, which, he says, is working out fine and good results are manifold.

The system he claims, "humanizes" his poultry. "You talk about electric lights in a hen house to make them work overhead, but' my plan has that beaten many times," he declared. He states that he shows stationery pictures in a machine to his hens. The pictures show the hens laying and he claims that puts them in mind of it and they go to work. But, of course, clean houses and the best of feed go with the plan.

The egg production has been greatly in-creasel in the last few weeks. Breeds Twin Mules LITTLE May 8.

SCENES UNEQUALLED FOR SWEEP AND FASCINATION mESTIC-Keith Vodvil NOW FIVE BIG VARIETY HITS HOW INCLUDING 1 JIt (fdJP(D By JAMES TV. DEAX NEW YORK, May 8. The "music film" is an innovation by Hugo Rie-nenfeld, director several Broadway theaters, in which the synchronization of music and photoplay is sought.

Lillian Powell dances the "Bubble Dance" in one film and in another performs an Egyptian dance duet with Martha Graham. These dances were created by Ted Shawn. The idea of Riesenfeld is that the action of music can be synchronized with the action of a photoplay. It is a comparatively simple matter to put the two in mesh when there are only one or two figures in the photoplay, acting against a bare background. Problem Simplified The problem is further simplified by showing the head and arms of a musical director in the film.

The leader of the orchestra then merely has to wave hts arms in unison with the arms of the pantomimic director to secure the proper tempo. Riesenfeld conducted a more in-terestUig and successful experiment when he arranged the score of 'La Tosca" and "Carmen" to fit abbreviated film versions of the operas. Those experiments gave promise of something more pretentious in the way of synchronization of film and music than a "music film" in which a director flails his arms in time witli those of a screened automaton. Some day some producer will have the temerity to screen an opera or a musical play to fit a musical score and will probably be to learn that it is an easy accomplishment.
