however. as an embarrassing walt might

Some Of the Satyrs

Hazel Dawn plays the pink one.
Hazel has been brought from Lon
don for the mostly American com
pany, but the accent Of her speak
ing and singing denotes New York
culture. What s of more impOr-
tancc TO her sirenism is that she's
sweet hammered, augcl-faced and so
can most politely tempt the anti
nuarian into satyrism. An Alice
Dovey. too. as the sleuthing iancce,
gets involved in the transformation
of the cold potato into n hot ta-
male. In a game Of hide and seek
and tap-you 're-it. Hazel and Alico

Next. Hazel Dawn g skill as a

takes the satyr's fiddle and like
him in movements but a lovely con

way among the rcvelling men,
drawing several 70 the center of
the hall as though by mesmerism.
One of her partners ~ the William
Elliott who did so well as the boy

"Madame X'' that his place
seemed fixed high in Legitimate

vjd Bclasco's daughters. yet he has
taken the role Of the hirtatious
hero in this musical farce. although
he can barely get through with
some easy singing and has to omit
solos.

girls half to death with his per

The Pink Ladu

"The Pink Lady, was prepared
by Lew Fields for the Winter Gar
den at time when he was the
chosen director; but he drew out
from the uterprisc-scared by the
growing risks, or tired by the de-
lays, who knows '-and so we have
that big musical farce at another

La Belle Paree

ola Belle Paree' calls itself a
play, but is meant only TO loosely
hold together a programme Of spe-
cialties. They are shown III
twelve Partisan places, from pub
lie squares TO private resorts, and
from ornate cafes 10 dingy slums.
The scheme, you perceive, permits
the introduction of selected Amer
lean stunters along with imported
novelties. The place looked, at the
opening, like the Metropolitan OPP
era house-weil, say half WAY. IT
held one moIety of ultra modlsh
folk whose private motor cars made
line around three blocks; while
the other moiety was made mp of
less affluent town FOUNDERS; so that
the women showed contrasts of
tasteful modes and coarse 6amboy-
ancy.
The men on the stage are so
dim i'm the ef'ulgencc of the WON
en- that they re not worth naming.
But the actresses are high priced
and worth their cost. Kitty Cor
don and Jean Alwyn are from Lon
don. Kitty is beauty all over.
Her face is triAe hard, and she
has been old enough for suffrage
some wears, but our women agree
that she has the most superlatively
lovely figure that ever grew. and
she is wonderfully adept ut wearing
fine gowns effectively. Jean is
smaller and livelier. Both sing
well. They arc brought together in
n Partisan shop Of modes kept by
Jean. visited by Kitty, and outfit
ted with a dozen show girls select
ed to personate models.
Kitty has on harem gown to
slightly advantage. and shows other
whimsical garments. including suf-
fragette trousers with masculine
side out and n feminine side in, the
lining being lace and embroidery.
