In order that they may continually Inter- change Ideas and keep thoroughly In touch with the needs of the resort the Atlantic City Amusement Association has decided to hold bi-monthly luncheons at the Alamac hotel, at which time general problems will be taken up and settled. BOSTON. DY LKN L1BBEY. KEITH'S (Robert O. Larson, mgr.; agent, H. U. O.).—One of the most evenly balanced hlllfl that has been seen at this house for several weeks Is presented thlH week. The bill Is without a star but there Ih entertainment \vh\"Ji >iiti\ n!) "lessen of pMtronR and It Is a Mil that Is rather a HiirpriHe to the audience. The patronage Ih still being affected by the war tax iih was shown by Monday evening's performance. (wading positions on the bill are ab)iit equally divided between Morton and (IlaHH. Florence Tempest, and Maude Earle and her company. Morton and Glass have a veh- icle. "11>17-1J>."><>," which Is well presented and which lacks nothing as far as atage setting goes. It la perhapa one of the best acta that bave been put on scenic effects at this house this reason. Florence Tempest, "America's Most Lovable Boy and Vaudeville's Daintiest Girl," got over well. Miss Earle offers "The Local Verdict," a novelty In which the audi- ence is asked to act aa the jury, a position which most of the audience seemed to find to their liking. Miss Earle Is what we should call a "hard worker" and she puts her act over In fine style. The Llttlejohns In their dazzling diamond act found favor with the house as did Lemalre and Gallagher In their funny military travesty. Milt Collins In a monolog, "The Patriot," was well received as the act Is really a satire on the German meth- od of doing business. John Ford and Vera flnlfsh the bill with "Bits of Musical Comedy." BOSTON (Charles Harris, mgr.; agent, U. B. O.).—Drama and comedy blended In the bill. Tyrone Powers in "The Planter" and Lew Madden In the comedy, "Monday Morn- ing," were the features of the film and vaude- ville offerings. The balance of the bill In- cludes the Honamura troupe, Lamb's Manikins and Frosinl. BIJOU (Ralph Oilman, mgr.; agent, U. B. O.).—Pictures. Good. BOWDOIN (Al Somerbee, mgr.; agent, U. B. O).—Douglass Fairbanks in "The Man from Painted Post." The vaudeville Includes Law- rence Crane and Co., Wllllson and Sherwood, Charles Bradley, Welcome and Welcome, De Vail Sisters and George Drlscoll. ST. JAMES (Joseph Brennan, mgr.; agent, U. B. O.).—In the one-act comedy, "Our Husband," which seemed to get the house Just right, Bertha Creighton and Co. head the vaudeville bill. Robert Warwick, In "The Silent Master," Is the leading film offering. 554 TpI. Bryant < 565 ro$ The Edmonds wm ONE BLOCK TO TIMS 1Q.
