VaIeska Suratt, Star Of 1.-THE Soul of
Broadway"

Valeska Suratt, Star Of 1.-THE Soul Of
Broadway"
Faleska Suratt, the most discussed
woman Of the stage or screen, is, as is
known to theatregoers the country
over. the fashion-plate of the dramatic
profession. Her gowns have made
millions gasp by their beauty and dar-
ing as well as by their dazzling Law
ishness of design. In making her
screen debut in 1.-The Soul of Broad
way" the latest of the great William
Fox photodramas, Miss Suratt has
outdone all her previous efforts in
gowns and millinery, fashioned by IA
nous modistes.
In all she wears $50 gowns, some
daringly and uniquely simple; others
that are calculated to make the femi-
nine portion of her spectators break
into astonished ordinations when
they see them. 1t is estimated that in
the course of THE Soul of Broadway
Miss Suratt changes her garments
with every forty feet Of film. Many of
them are designed to match the sets"
of 1.-The Soul of Broadway" which lat
ter in themselves are quite unlike any
thing yet seen in motion picture, and
We're especially designed for William
Fox by a celebrated artist of the
ultra modern school.
Miss Suratt in 1.-The Soul of Broad
way" will be presented at the Colonial
Theatre this coming Friday and Sat
