Saturday, November 26:—George Walsh in "Dynamite Allen." Do you like to see a picture with charming romance? Do you like one that will hold you tense with excite-ment at the daring and sensational stunts performed? Do you like- to laugh at real clean comedy, and'shed a tear or two in sympathy with grief or the victim of evil? Do you enjoy real acting that is not theatri-cal? If you do, you will find all of these in this latest William Fox production. The "Side Show" rip-roaring comedy is added to this program. Tuesday, November 29:—Pearl White in "The Mountain Woman." A William Fox adaptation of Charles Neville Buck's famous novel "A Pagan of the Hills." The pictured version is known as "The Mountain Woman" and is said to give this beautiful star one of the finest pictures of her whole career. Which is saying a good deal when one recalls such pictures as "Tiger's Cub," "The White Moll" and "The Thief"—all three of them Fox productions, the last named being the screened version of Henri Bernstein's greatest play. Miss White's instantaneous ' success in emotional drama after reaching the pin-nacle of fame in serial pictures has been as remarkable as it is gratifying. "The Mountain Woman>"' directed by Charles Giblyn, is a story of the Kentucky hills, and its characters are those sturdy, quaint people who live in the mountain tim-berlands. As "Alexander" McGivens, the "gal in pants," the "he-woman," as she was called by her fearing, admiring neighbors, the sfbry is said to be superb.

Miss Corinne Jessup, rendered several songs and readings in delightful manner. She has a very pleasing personality which added to the effectiveness of the selections. Miss Mary Johnson, Contralto, capably rendered several selections and assisted in several trios.

HERSHEY CENTRAL THEATRE
Thursday, Thanksgiving Day, November
24:—"The Handicap," featuring Violet Hop-son.
Its a red blooded' story of the turf
mixed with the blue blood of Europe. A
story of. turf intrigue, conspiracy and villainy
in which American pluck spurred on by a
woman's love -win 6Ver all obstacles. . The
most sensational racing picture produced -in
years. _ ¦ .
This evening's entertainment is completed
with "Topics of the Day" and an&thpr reel
depicting -the adventures of Major Jack
Allen in the jungle.
Saturday, November 26:—George Walsh
in "Dynamite Allen." Do you like to see a
picture with charming romance? Do you
like one that will hold you tense with excite-ment
at the daring and sensational stunts
performed? Do you like- to laugh at real
clean comedy, and'shed a tear or two in
sympathy with grief or the victim of evil?
Do you enjoy real acting that is not theatri-cal?
If you do, you will find all of these in
this latest William Fox production.
The "Side Show" rip-roaring comedy is
added to this program.
Tuesday, November 29:—Pearl White in
"The Mountain Woman." A William Fox
adaptation of Charles Neville Buck's famous
novel "A Pagan of the Hills." The pictured
version is known as "The Mountain Woman"
and is said to give this beautiful star one of
the finest pictures of her whole career.
Which is saying a good deal when one recalls
such pictures as "Tiger's Cub," "The White
Moll" and "The Thief"—all three of them
Fox productions, the last named being the
screened version of Henri Bernstein's greatest
play. Miss White's instantaneous ' success
in emotional drama after reaching the pin-nacle
of fame in serial pictures has been as
remarkable as it is gratifying.
"The Mountain Woman>"' directed by
Charles Giblyn, is a story of the Kentucky
hills, and its characters are those sturdy,
quaint people who live in the mountain tim-berlands.
As "Alexander" McGivens, the
"gal in pants," the "he-woman," as she was
called by her fearing, admiring neighbors,
the sfbry is said to be superb.
Fourth episode of "Hurricane Hutch" will
close tliia program.

SECOND LYCEUM NUMBER WAS SUC-CESS
The second number of the Redpath
Lyceum, given under the asupices of .John
Elder Men's Bible Class was rendered Thurs-day
evening, November 17, in Hershey Cen-tral
theatre. The large audience which had
assembled was delightfully entertained.
Several capable critics asserted that this was
the best entertainment of any given thus far
by the class in the last th ree years.
Miss Vera MacKelvic more than measured
up to expectations, marvelously holding the
attention by her remarkable draftsmanship,
using either hand and several times both in
same sketch.
Miss Corinne Jessup, rendered several
songs and readings in delightful manner.
She has a very pleasing personality which
added to the effectiveness of the selections.
Miss Mary Johnson, Contralto, capably
rendered several selections and assisted in
several trios.
The next and last number of Course, "The
Novelty Four," to be given Tuesday, January
17, will undoubtedly be the "Star" of the
course, if not the best .given by the class the
past three years. A male quartette is un-usually
attractive and this one should be
particularly so being both vocal and instru-mental
. It is the highest priced number of
any of the three seasons.
