vacation in Europe. Before Frohman
sailed on the Lusitania. he expressed the
wish that the business should be con-

he was absent on a vacation.
Hayman was very close to Frohman.
Their friendship was above the sordid
commercial aspect of their relationship.
Also Hayman has the respect and conf
dence of the Frohman stars. In many
respects he is much like Frohman in
temperament. 1t was whispered about
Broadway that when Frohman died a
rush would he made to raid his collection
of stars.
1t has proven false rumor. Not one of
the stars has been approached. They
have all signifed their intention to re-

stories told about Frohman dealt with a
note which he received from Haddon

The fame of Winsted has even gone all

 French Brazilian is Originator.
 It appears that the woman who gave impetus to the new, masculine style was not really a native of France Reliable reports say that it French Brazalian who contends that it is the proper and modest dress for women.
 She wears her original costume continually in the streets of Paris. Regarding the socks, she says they are more comfortable and cooler than stockings and certainly just as de- cent as the shcrt transparent skirt.
 Mime. Luiferes breadth of view is due largely to the fact that she is an engineer in Brazil. In the course of her work she was thrown chiefly in contact with men and soon assimilat- ed many of the ideas of her fellow workers.
 Her Desire to Be Comfortable.
 Incidentally, Mime. Luifere is 8 graphic writer ard has sent many in- teresting accounts of conditions in Europe to this country.
 It is generally believed that in her desire to be comfortable she had no intent to bring about a general revi- val in the mannish costume.
 Luigi Rienzi, an importer, said, in discussing the subject he did not be- lieve that the new costume would oe popular here. "A few extremists might take it ur' he said, but il would be very severe and would be unbecoming to A large number of women.''

Such a coat as this one is essentially youthful in it's style. It is perfectly simple too, hanging in straight lines from the shoulders, with the flu lness confined by means of the belt. In the illustration. there are four pockets and pockets are being much used just now, but either the upper or the lower pockets may be omitted if fewer are found more becoming, or, the coat can be finished quite plain without any pockets. On the figure, the lower edge is pointed and it can be made in that way or straight or it can be cut off to make shorter coat. Also the collar can be made either high or low; alto- gether it is a most satisfactory coat for the early season. In the picture, it is made from one of the checked suitings that promise to be SO much used, but the model will be found good one for anything that is adapted to the tailored finish.
 For the 16 year size will be needed 4I yds. of material 27 in. wide, 3H yds. 36, yds. A, 2A yds. 54, with A yd. 27 in. wide for the collar and sleeve trimming.

Plaited skirts are always becoming to little girls. In this case, the skirt may be made with or without the yoke but whenever it is becoming, it is we'll that it should be used. The blouse that conf pletes the dress is a very simple one, closed at the back, yet with a little chemisette effect at the front that; is new and exceedingly smart. In the picture, soldiers blue gabardine is trimmed with black braid and the chemisette is of ivory white broadcloth with small pearl but tons, but one could copy this dress in, many different materials. Girls will wear linen, cotton poplin and other washable materials of the sort for many weeks, to come and it would be exceedingly charming made of any one of these and, could be trimmed with either braid or with contrasting material. There are wool crepes that are charming for girls' wear and the poplin weaves are to be used this season and there is altogether a most interesting variety. The rolling collar leaves the neck just open for com Fort; the sleeves may be made in either khree-quarter or in full length.

WOMAN NEXT DOOR.
 FOX'S SUNDAY NIGHT

''The Woman Next Door, featur- ing dainty Irene Fenwick, star of The Song Of Songs," will be shown at Fox's tomorrow night with care fully selected si gle reel comedies.
 'The Woman Next Door" is TO- mantle drama founded on the stage play of that name by Owen Davis. In none of her other productions has Miss Fenwick been given such splen- did opportunity to display those pow CTS which have made her one of the greatest stage stars in America. Her work in this production is said to be one of the rarest and beautiful ex- amples of character portrayal in the annals of film plays. The role of the divorced actress, Jenny Gay, is especially suited to her peculiar tenn perment and talents. The story is familiar to theater-goers, it having been one of the big Broadway suc- cesses of the past few years and later taking to the road covering every little hamlet in America. "The Wo- man Next Door" should meet with the popular approval of the legion of Sunday Night Fox patrons.
 Theda Bara, Jean Sothern and a wonderful cast of Fox principals will be shown for the last time tonight in "The Two Orphans" the famous stage success by Adolphe D'Ennery, and eevrybody should avail themselves of

SADDENED, DUMBA'S
 WIFE HATES TO GO
Many Warm Friendships Must Be
 Severed Because Of Husband
(8y Ruth M. Ryers.)

Knox, Mass, Sept. 1S.-"I never was so astounde5 at anything in my life. Even yet it hardly seems real that my husband and I have been asked to leave this country, where we have made 50 many warm friends. But I guess it is only another one of the hardships this dreadful war has demanded of the world.
 So Madam Dumba, wife of pr. Constantin Dumba, the ambassador from Austria Hungary, described the diplomatic clash that has made nec- essary the severing of many pleasant friendships sine has made in America.
 Will Miss Many Friends.
 "You say that my friends will miss me here. An! hope so. Certain it is that shall miss them.'
 Mnle. Dumba was standing, as we talked, On the steps of her villa. The Poplars high among the Berkshire Hills. Suddenly she swept her arm wide, with a gesture that took in all tha lovely country surrounding Stockbridge.
 r.4"I have grown to love these hills They will always mean beautiful Am erica to me; and we hope, above all else, that our friends and our policies will keep apart in future memories of this summer spent under most try ing conditions Mme. Dumba smiled a little wistfully and abruptly changed the subject.
 Summer Colony Regretful.
 It was easy to understand the sense of loss which the exclusive summ CT colony at Lenox is feeling over the sudden departure of Mime. Durnba and the Ambassador. For Mime. Dumba is so chg rming, so unaffected, and above all, so beautiful. ..
 She has a wealth of wonderful bronzed hair, tinged with flaming red gold, and her eyes are gray-green She is tall, lithely built and impresses one at once of being a lover of all kinds of outdoor sports. She wore to- day q simple white shirtwaist, tan sport skirt and a becoming white pan anna hat. -ls E ! ..
