THE WHITNEY
Everyone is out to win in the violin
contest in "Fiddlers Three," coming
tomorrow night to the Whitney. .It
is a big event for both master and
pupil to win the prize for superiority
of instrument and playing.
Among the contestants are the -pupil
of a noted violin-maker and a strang-
er, the violin-maker's daughter's lover.
The rivalry for the grand prize, and
also for the beautiful girl, is keen
between these two. Before the contest
the master himself, becomes convinced
of the superiority of the stranger's in-
strument and just before the con-
test the violins are changed in their
cases. Almost as soon as this has
been done some one mysteriously
changes them back again 'and the girl
marries the one she loves.
In "39 East," coming to the Whit-
ney next Thursday evening, Con-
stance Binney has the role of a west-
ern girl who comes to 'New York to
win fame and fortune as a singer.
Stopping at "39 East," a New York
boarding house, she meets a variety
og characters from numerous gossips
to Napoleon Gibbs, the scion of a
wealthy family. Their courtship be-
gis the first morning at the breakfast
table and is carried on in spite of the
interferring gossips.

THE MAJESTIC
Comedy is rampant in Marguerite
Clark's new Paramount picture,
"Girls," to be shown again today at
the Majestic. One of the delightful
situations in the film arises when a
young lawyer, who has fallen in love.
with the pretty president of a man-
haters club, calls to find over her door
the sign, "No man shall cross this
threshold."
Keeping in mind the old saying,
"Faint heart never won fair lady," he
enters her window, gaining admission
without crossing the threshold. This,
however, does not bring the" result
intended. It is only after the other
members of the man-hating club have.
deserted their fair president that he
accidently wins her consent to be his
bride.
"Fatty" Arbuckle rescues beauty in
distress. in "Back Stage," an addi-
tional attraction. When he forcibly
ejects a villian from the theater he
starts a train of circumstances that
give him plenty of opportunitie3 to
win laughs.
THE ARCADE
In "The Brat," which will be shown
today on a return engagement at the
Arcade, Nazimova has many opportun-
ities to show her ability. This fea-
ture is distinguished from her other
pictures and stands out as. one of the
brightest spots in her career.
Pauline Frederick in "The Peace of
'Roaring River" will,, be presented
Wednesday and Th'sday.
