Mrs. Hocutt attended Peace institute in Raleigh. Mr. and Mrs. Hocutt left immediate ly after the wedding for a bridal trip north; • • • Kinston Visitors .Honored The following item from the Kinston Free Press will be of! interest: "Mrs. Nat Hill was a most delight ful hostess at bridge Tuesday after noon, honoring Misses Julia Gold, of Greensboro, and Katherine Morehead, of Charlotte, house guests of Miss Catherine Copeland. Lovely potted plants formed the chief decoration, and in the attractive rooms tables were arranged for 18. Miss Elizabeth Qulnerly waa awarded top score prize, a unique string of beads and each! honor guest was presented a dainty piece of lingerie. Following a number of highly interesting progressions a' delicious salad course was served.” » ' • • Delightful Supper Dunce. Charming Jn every detail was the supper dance which took place last evening at the Cape Fear Country club. About 50 couples were present and a delicious buffet Bupper was served, beginning at 7:30 o’clock, and dancing was enjoyed throughout the evening. Mrs. Edwin Metts and Mrs. Clarence Maffltt were the committee in charge. THEATRICAL \ “SHUFFLE ALONG”—VICTORIA The following criticism of “Shuffle Along1,” whifch will be the attractilon at the Victoria theatre on next Mbnday night, was taken from the Petersburg (Va.) Progress of January 14th: “ ‘Shuffle Along,’ sustained its repu tation yesterday afternoon at the mati nee performance and again last night of being one of the best colored pro ductions in America. Taking the show altogether it was as good as the aver age and much better than some. "The dancing was cleverly executed and the chorus work above the ordi nary. . What was lacking In the women’s voices was made up In the quality of the male part of the chorus, several of whom appeared to great ad vantage In solo work. "Blanche Thompson, the bronze prima donna, who has alweys been recognized as being the best dressed colored woman on the stage, appeared in several exquisite gowns which are said to have been designed by her self, , "The tuneful score of ‘Shuffle Along’ is responsible for its popular ity. The charm of its music and the riot of color produced by the. clever ness of the comedians have made the shpw the success it now is and has by by the swishy skirts of the chorus combined with the cleverness of the comedians havj made the show the success it now is and has been ever since it was grst produced in New York. “The balcony and galleries were crowded with colored enthusiasts who gave the performers much applause.” Tickets will go on sale this morning at the Wilmington Talking Machine company. . . “SHADOWS” When a producer takes a great Ac tion story, organizes a cast of players made up almost exclusively of stars or featured players, and ^places the whole in the hands of a capable di rector, it is not surprising that the re sult is a picture of the unusual quali ties of “Shadows,” which closes its run today at the Grand. ■ That is just what B. P. Schulberg did when he made “Shadows," based on “Ching, Ching, Chinaman.” The result is something as nearly perfect in a photoplay as has been here In many a day. All of the dramatic, comedy and heart Interest possibilities were recog nized, developed and even strengthen ed as they were translated to the screen by Director Tom Form&n. He has developed Interest and skilfully worksd-up to the enterprising dramatic climax that keeps the ^spectator on the edge of his seat until the final shot. Lon Chaney gives another unforget able perforamnce as Yen Sin in a role that outshines anything he has ever done in pictures. Marguerite De La Motte,. Harrison Ford, John Cainpolis, Walter Long, Buddy Messenger, and Priscilla Bonner are included in the east. The production values are law less. “THE CLAW” Stories of South African life are al ways interesting, and for that reason the presentation of Clara Kimball Fresh From Our Ovens Today!

Young’s great African picture, “The Claw," was welcomed at the Royal yes terday. "The Claw” was originally a novel by Cynthia Stockley, and it was adap ted to the screen by Charles P. Whit taker. As Mary Saurin, the heroine. Miss Young has a most delightful role and one which gives her ample oppor tunity for the display of the talents which have made her famous. One of the features of the production is the all-star cast which supports Miss Young. Milton Sills is one of these, and he plays the leading role opposite the star herself. Jack Holt is an other,, and through his splendid work on thb screen he has since become a Btar in his own right. Others in the big cast are Marcia Manon. Henry Woodward, K. M. Kimball, Mary Mersch. The picture was directed by Robert Vignola, Who has just finished a million dollar production, "When Knighthood Was in Flower." “UNDER TWO FLAGS”—COMING "Under Two Flags,” the Universal Jewel film version of Ouifia’s immor tal tale of undying love, which held the stage of the world for many years in a dramatized version of the novel, presents one of the great stories of all times through the superior medium of the screen. It comes to the Grand Monday. . Priscilla Dean, the star, is directed by Tod Browning, the same combina tion responsible for "The Virgin of ' Stamboul.” Supporting Miss Dean are such stel Tin --1 WP Resinol does wonders fir chafed or irritated shins “My doctor told me about it and if I couldn’t get another jar I wouldn’t give this one up for anything.” That is how many people regard Resinol Ointment.

H. Bain bridge, Burton Law and Bobby Mack. In the production of the picture Uni versal allowed Tod Browning unlimit ed scope. Even “Foolish Wives” had scarcely better sets and scenif effects. The gamut of Algerian archictecture is run, from narrow alleys to barracks and boudoirs of Oriental splendor. “EXPEDIENCE”—ACADEMY1 ,The lure of life, and all its caressing voices; the way of the world, with one who has turned ,to the left; the hand of Love, lifting a broken soul to happi ness. That is the keynote of "Expe ■ rience,” the brilliant allegorical, play written and produced by George V*. Hobart, in 1914, ar.d a sensational stage success ever since. . “Experience” will be given a master ly and finished production at the ACal emy of Music here by the Pickert Stock company, Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday of next week, and it might be said right here and now that Mana ger Dodson, of the Pickert Stock com pany. deserves no small measure of praise for his efforts in producing a play of this calibre with his local com pany. The royalty, in the first analy sis, is something |hat most anv other stock manager would hesitate to pay, and the cost of production, to stage it according to the original Idea. Is per haps three times, as costly as any cither production that'might be mentioned. Despite all of this, Manager Kermon guarantees a hundred per cent produc tion and will not under ally considera tion advance the price of admission. With all things considered, local de votees of the drama surely have a rare treat in stofe for them when this play is offered here. “Experience” is' the romance of mod ern Touth, adventuring. Its hopes, temptations, passions, failures, lovce, triumphs. Its scenes are laid in ham let and city, home and pleasure palace, green fields and underworld dives. And running through the play Is a simple tender story, tugging at the heart of all who are or ever have been young. ..-4 How Long Will the o Candle Burn? See the Center Window at C.
