AT THE MAJESTIC
"The Fighting Rooseelts," an au-
thorized version of the life and works
of Colonel Theodore Roosevelt, to be
presented Wednesday and Thursday
at the Majestic theater, is a screen his-
tory of the career of America's great-
est American, from the cradle to the
White House, and essentially includes
a dramatic portrayal of some of the
greatest events in the history of the
United States and the world.
The abundance of dramatic and
humorous events which characterized
the life of kioosQvelt are said to furn-
ish ample material for a decidely ef-
fective photoplay.
AT THE WHITNEY
The story of "The Auctioneer," in
Which David Warfield appears Tues-
day, April 8, at the Whitney, is famil-
iar to most theater-goers, but for the
benefit of the younger generation it
may be related that Simon Levi is at
first seen in his East Side auction
store and home, building up the for-
tune begun with his peddler's basket.
When his adopted daughter, Helga,
is about to become the bride of Dick
Eagan, he moves into a Lexington ave-
nue mansion, has a "good time" while
it lasts, becomes suddenly penniless,
and then has to go back down town
and cheerfully begin life over again
with his peddler's basket.
AT THE WUERTH
"The Unpardonable Sin," in which
Blanche Sweet returns to the screen,
and which is being shown Wednesday,
Thursday, and Friday at the Wuerth
theater, is not in every sense a war
picture, although it deals with the
tory of a woman who was caught
behind the lines ip . Germany
shortly after the great warcbroke
'ut. There are no trench nor
battle scenes, but the great conflict
forms a most substantial background
for the narrative.
SHUBERT-GARRICK-DETROIT
"Leave it to Jane," which is meet-
ing with such success at the Shubert-
Garrick theater, Detroit, this week, is
founded on Gorge Ade's clever farce,
"The College Widow." In adapting
the story to music, librettists have
followed the general outline of the
Ade play, but have elaborated certain
features best adapted to musical ex-
ploitation. College atmosphere has
been pleasingly preserved and the pro-
duction boasts the original company
and a host of pretty girls.
FORTY-SIX PER CENT OF OUR
ARMY OFFICERS DISCHARGED
Washington, March 31-A war de-
partment report shows that of the

That only 102,473 pf the 188,434 of-
ficers, who were on duty when the
armistice was signed, were in service

report of the general staff today, Of
this reduction, the greatest was in
the chemical warfare service, 83 per-
cent of whose commisioned officers
had been released.
