POLL AUDIENCE IS
 VERY MUCH PLEASE
1zxT c,

After advertising The Blindness i Virtue" as the most daring, sensA tional play of the American stage
 the manager of Polls theater in fiary
 ford, where this much criticised dram / [ of Sir Cosmo Hamilton is having {
 very satisfactory presentation thi { week, appeared before the audienc at last nights performance and aske all who desired to give in writinJl
 an impartial, honest criticism. Poi
 cards were passed by the ushers anN were then collected to be mailed | { the friends of those who had witnessed the performance. But. seven characters are required in the presentation of this particp'a
 story which concerns the dauPhter of) a hard working vicar in {" somewhat obscure suburb of London. In her1 innocence she p,ts herself in de- cidedIy con7 ,,-omising position witnl the worIaiy wise young man who has come 10 study law under her father Ip- -fler nightdress she is found by heA father in the boys room in the early hours of morning. Her motive in visiting the boy in such an unconven' tional way was innocent enough, butt the bitter truth that she did not rea- Ize the weight of appearances in sucl a situation was quite apparent and was the saving factor in the end. And the blame was in not what she did ] but in the fact that she did 1atl know.
 Marguerite Skirvin and Roy Phil-l lips were decidedly pleasing in their] interpretation of tEe parts of thel young lovers and their work in thal present piece is another indication of a promising future o1 the dramatie stage. Harry Rolling worth in the character of the vicar was admirably strong and convincing, while Welba Lestina, as Mrs. Pemberton, gave the part a refreshingly sweet interpreta- ton. Ada Dalton and John Ellis, in character parts furnished some de- lightful humor and Madeline Moore gave an impressive picture Of. the young girl of the settlement who hal heen a victim of the same blind ness"

The blouse designed for wear with the strictly tailored costume is a stern reality." Apparently it has no sympathy with frivolity, even though it's materials are fine of weave and delicately cOlOred.
 AS plain as it could be made up is a crepe de chine blouse tinted like the sun kissed side of a beach, Not a scrap of trimming is upon it. But something had to be done with the extra fullness on the shoulders. So, back and front the three rows of lit tie tucks which take up that full ness near the top of the arms were heightened to the waist. Groups of similar tucks outline the crossed front openings and head the band cuffs
 As though it's peach hue were per haps a thought too frivolous, the crepe de chine blouse is sternly re- buked by a dull brown silk tie en- circling it's high standing, low-edged collar and lowing stiffly at the chin. That tie matches the tone of the CO., vert cloth suit with which the peach blouse is to be worn, and somehow, although fashioned on extra severe lines, the waist lends a cheery air to the sombre costume.
 IIlkc S1llttu bOyS fdEly oHlTt.
 If you can recall the tucked shirt waist which your brother wore to par ties when he was ten years old, you will have a clear idea of the appear ance of a new model blouse in po1ne- granate crepe Georgette. The tucks are of the same width and regularity as were those of the lads white linen party shirt, and the fronts fasten with a row of pearl buttons. But while the sleeves are gathered below the wrists into partly turned back hand cuffs they are set in after the raglan manner. And because their arm eyes are ex- ceptlonally deep and brought we'll for ward from the shoulders their double scanning gives something of the ap- pearance of tiny bolero.
 This frivolous effect is promptly off set by the silk stock tie wound about the base of the self-collar and severe ly bowed at the joining of that col lars ends. These stiff ties, choking the throat, have dictatorial air which is difficult for one to tolerate graciously until one realizes that they give precisely the touch of stiffness needed to set off a dainty coloring of a tailored blouse.

Stern Reality CharacteriZeS the Blouse
 for the Strictly Tailored Costume
It Has No Sympathy With Frvoty-There is No Trim ming Upon It, But Their Are Three Rows of
 Tucks Shoulders

among the severe models for the com ing season. But the delicate shades are conspicuously lacking, while prominently to the fore are the palm and olive hues which combine so per- fectly with black or white. These two shades of green, however, are excellent when used without any re- lief save that afforded by the use of heavier material This idea is very skilfully made use of in the case of a palm green chiffon blouse whose under bodice-showing be- tween the gradually separated fronts of the garm ent-is of Self-tOne pop lin.
 The blouse, which is square yoked to trif1e below the armpits, is so scant that scarcely any fitness ap- pears above the girdle dividing it's upper portion from a peplum half covering the hips. A few of the new waists are belted in this fashion, and they look we'll only when the basque fits as smoothly as the yoke top of a tailored skirt.
 If you do not care for neckties, you would do well to adopt a collar sim liar to the one in popln on this palm green chiffon blouse. It is cut from biased material. so that it fits smoothly about the neck and is very high at the nape. From just in front of the ears. however, it curves abrupt Iy downward and buttons, an inch deep, under the chin. Those tiny buttons match others fastening the under bodice from the bust to half way over the hips, and also below at the back of the wrist on either long tight sleeve.

Not a few people are making tn,
mistake of flying in Russia's honor
the picturesque yellow flag with the
double eagle. under the impression
that it is our ally's national flag. This
flag. however. is really the imperial
standard, while the white flag with
the blue St Andrews cross Is the
Russian naval ensign. The latter rs
used only by the navy. and is not
allowed to be flown by private in.
dividuals.
The Russian national flag. which
should be used in this country by peo-
pie who wish to show their admiration
for Russia, is a tricolor. white, blue
and red stripes, placed longitudin-
ally.
There is. indeed, q remarkable
similarity between the flags Of the
allies. France. Russia and Serbia
all employ the same three colors. only
the arrangement differing. In regard
to the flags of Russia and Serbia, Ii
may be pointed out that. as the colors
are the same. Serbian flag upside
down would be The Russian, and vice
versa. Belgium flies a tricolor with
the colors vertically. as in the case of
the French flag. The Belgian colors,
