In the Pittsburgh Theaters Ghost Train." A most startling effect of a whistling train's roaring rush past a station is the talk of many attracted to "The Ghost Train," the laugh thriller, acted by the high-class company headed by Ann Harding and Harry Bannister on the Pitt stage, going into the second week last night. Arnold Ridley's mystery melodrama, which ran in New York and London, is having its first presentation in Pittsburgh. In George Sharp's company all the members demonstrate the extra punch that first rate acting can give to a thriller. The suddenness of Anne Forrest's shriek startles feminine squeals in the audience. Leah Winslow continues a scream as a spinster.
has a parrot she calls Joe that lays egg, and then she She, has to call him Clara. The phantom train's coming is foreshadowed by the grizzly freight agent, Fred Sullivan, who filled the part with the original road cast. Douglass Wood brings admirable bearing to a husband having a misunderstanding with his wife, attractively expressed Mabel Kroman.

DAVIS- -Vaudeville. Plenty to laugh at, artistry to admire and other interest-holding amusem*nt make up the Keith- Albee vaudeville and screen features in the Davis this week. Dorothy Rae and her syncopators are the principal stage attraction, and the picture is "The Masked Woman." with Anna Q. Nilsson, Holbrook Blinn and Charlie Murray. Miss Rae is pert and pretty, an eccentric dancer and skilled in putting typical songs across.
The Two Sammies, nimble-footed steppers, lend assistance, and completing her company of 11 orchestra under the direction of Gilbert Lamb. Mirth is supreme when "Blackface" Eddie Ross with his "African harp" is before the footlights. The former end-man minstrel has a new line of songs and jokes as he strums his banjo. Song. dance and fun are in "Elevated Love," presented by Fred Jarvis, Freddie Harrison and company.
A youthful member of the company who makes a decided hit is "Sonny" Jarvis. Those who like music find satisfaction in the turn presented by Brooks and Ross, who come to the varieties from "Greenwich Village Follies" and London reviews. Their songs cover a wide range of popular numbers. A turn unlike any other that has ever come to these shores from Australia is presented by Stan Kavanaugh, 1 the young humorist. As a juggler he is an expert, and as a joker he is irresistible.
He and his company do things differently for 15 minutes. Bonomo, strong man, shown in pictures, is on the Davis stage, assisted by Charles Shaffer, former Pittsburgh athletic champion. The story of a woman who treads on thin ice is told in "The Masked Bobby Vernon's new comic, "Tie That Bull." news pictures, orchestra and pipe-organ music complete the bill. Film. "Resurrection," the picturing of Count Leo Tolstoi's story of love and sacrifice, this week in the Aldine, shows Rod La Rocque as the prince with the changes from the dashing, impulsive young declarer of love for the peasant girl to the sophisticated, almost savage courtier, a devil-maycare type, and finally as a lover, a fine, upstanding, worthy prince whose soul has been purged in the fires of understanding love.
Dolores del Rio is the peasant in the prince's sin. She smashes horne to the onlooker the meaning of unselfish love, as the finest work of this star. Benny Rubin is in the stage novelty, "Rushia." His eccentric and character dances continue to receive considerable applause. Dave Harman and his orchestra return the Aldine and present Russian syncopation that is entertaining. The Aldine orchestra, "Topics of the Day" and the news film complete the program.
GRAND--Stage and Screen. laughs are depicted "Lost at the Front," with George Sidney and Charles Murray On the Grand a screen. Cronin and Constantine, danc. ers; Alla Del Fino, Alberto Sanchez and La Guitana quartet are the headliners of the stage program. Lloyd Hamilton in "Goose Flesh" produced two reels of laughs.
"Topics of the Day" and news reel conclude the program. Music is by the Grand Orchestra under the direction of David Broudy. OLYMPIC-Vitaphone. "A Million Bid" is Olympic screen melodrama with an O. Henry surprise at the end.
Dolores Costello is cast as the victim of her mother's selfishness.

In after years the former husband wanders back. The vitaphone reproduced the singing of Marion Talley with Guiseppi DeLuca, Beniamino Gigli and Jeanne Gordon in the quartet from "Rigoletto."

formed the feature of the vaudeville in Sheridan Square last night in "Dixieland to Broadway." The characterizations were So lifelike that they gave the idea of being colored people. But Manager J. 0. Hooley said the entertainers were all white. The screen presented Dolores Costello, Pittsburgh star, in "A Million Bid." with able help from Malcolm McGregor, Betty Blythe and Warner Oland.
The story is that of a girl who is sold by her mother to the highest bidder. The Five Cardinals are tumblers par excellence, one man and four girls. Joe Donahue and Virginia Barrett presented skit called "Him and Her," a talkfest with song and dance trimmings. John Keane offered "Keen Songs and Sayings." Mystic Mirror, a novelty, opened the bill. John Edward Do Mitchell with an original organlogue, screen laughs and other attractions completed the bill.
DUQUESNE No, Those who doubt the merits of the Duquesne Opera Company should witness one of the performances of "No, No, Nanette," which will be given the remainder of the week at the Duquesne Garden. None of the high- rose to stellar prominence last night in portraying the part of Pauline, the maid, who leaves the Smith household to enjoy "sea-air an' swimmin'" at the shore. Always the center of attraction when she is on the stage, she creates a near riot when she rushes into the finale of the second act garbed in an orange bathing suit. Nobody has done a better job of Billy than Deen Cole did last evening salaried, widely advertised Broadway casts that have played here have presented this musical winner with more colorful settings or more genuine "pep" than this Pittsburgh unit. The production retains the best that has been seen here, and adds a few new wrinkles.
Much of the pleasure of the evening is due to the singing and ing Nanette of Laine Blaire, who again fills the title role. It is a delight to watch her dance the "No, No, Nanette" number with the men of the chorus, and there is real charm in her 'Tea for Two." Matt Hanley, heretofore limited to low comedy roles, appears most effectively as Jimmy Smith, who mixes the Bible "industry" with a penchant for supporting young girls in an innocent way that doesn't get by at all with his wife. Aileen Booth is the wife. A new comedienne, Sarah Edwards, rose to stellar prominence last night Fashion Hints VOGUE $3145 A great historian in a wonderful, up-to-the minute interview with WILLIS J. BALLINGER, states that the whole history of the Great war will have to be rewritten.
He gives his reasons, and they will astonish the world. The interview is a big feature of The Post next as he lifted the audience into gales of laughter trying to extricate himself and Jimmy from the clutches of the three "wild" women, namely Dorothy Brown, Ruth Penery and Sally Hampson. Opposite Ethel Clark pleases As the extravagant Lucille. Hollis Devany is somewhat hindered by the lack suitable singing material, but he is very acceptable as Tom Trainor. An opportunity is provided for Clay Inman to display his vocal talents in Victor Herbert's "Gypsy Love Song." A great deal of credit must be given to the choruses for their splendid work in both dancing and singing ensembles, and to Alonzo Price, who staged the whole production.
HARRIS-Vaudeville. Vaudeville in the Harris was topped yesterday by Artie Mehlinger, writer of song hits and well known to those who like canned music. His reportoire of songs was interspersed with humorous talk. The screen feature was Fred Thomas, with his famous horse, Silver King, in "Silver Comes Thru." Jim and Marion Harking, natives of Pittsdanc-burgh, but seldom seen here in vaudeville, were a laugh hit in a skit called "Gossip." Billy Collins and Ione Reed exemplified the levity of youth in "6-2-9-4," written by Phillip Bartholomes, and bubbling with fun and song. Moore and Powell offered a musical novelty called "Crooning and Ballooning." Everything these boys can put their hands upon proves to be a musical instrument, including toy balloons and the spoons on the table.
The Dobas Duo, balancers; Howard Webb with a new organiogue, and other attractions completed the bill. PITTSBURGHER YALE ORATOR NEW HAVEN, June (Chicago Tribune) Approximately 4,000 Yale alumni today attended the class reunions and undergraduate activities.

pity dance within a week or two. I should appreciate it very much if you would sketch a little frock for me to year on that occasion. I am 5 feet 5 inches, rather slender, weighing 110, and have brown hair and brown eyes. I should prefer to wear orchid, as I have never had anything in that shade. With my coloring do you think this would look well? MISS INQUISITIVE.
Dear Miss have sketched a charming youthful frock for you which can be made equally well in a flowered chiffon. A shorter girl than you could not carry this dress because of the very full skirt and the down-at-the-back hem-line, which, incidentally, is the new battle-cry of Paris. There is a circular cape at the back that hangs from the shoulder, and the whole dress flutters and clings as you dance in a most becoming manner. With your brown hair and eyes you should be able to wear orchid very well if you select a shade that is nearer to fuchsia than lavender. The blue-lavender is a shade that is more becoming to a fair person than to a brunette.
