 Fifty" Here Tomorrow.

In her new Triangle-F Fine Arts play, "Fifty- Fifty which will be seen at the Orpheo theater Monday Norma Talmadge appears as Naomi. a girl of the studios in New York's artist quarter Naomi is possessed of de- sire for continuous frolic and adven- ture, which lead her into succession of performances, startling even to her Bohemian friends.
 One night, at a gay party, one of the me his deceived by Naomi's efferves- cent spirits into thinking that she is much more unconventional girl than she herself has any idea of being Naomi, really quite nsophisticated, is later tricked by this man into accom- panying him into hotel of question: able repute, where the two, innocent of any wrong-doing, are captured Tn police raid and Naomi has an un- pleasant experience in the night court Not long after this Naomi marries Frederic Harmon, a broker.

"BRIDGES BURNED,
PetrOvn's Role as Woman of Energy Suggests Career of Mrs. BOiSsevain.

The activities of the late 1nez Mil holland Boissevain in behalf of work ing people are suggested in the role Madame Petrova plays in the Metro production, Bridges Burned" which will be seen at the Hauber theater on Wednesday. The spirit of reform and achievement of Mrs. Boissevain was the same that actuates Mary O'Brien Madame Petrova) in her work in be- half of the factory girls with whom fate throws her into contact.
 During the preparations for the taking of the picture, Madame Pe- trova spent much time in the manu- featuring centers of the East, study ing the conditions and surroundings of the employed young women. She made friends of several of the work CTS and from them, at first hand learned the problems with which they arc battling. "I was surprised to find inc grea
 good that has been done by the much, abused reformer," said Madame Pe
 trova. "There are model factories 1T and about Eastern cities, descriptions
 of which would seem like fables. Al these changes have been brough
 about by the 'reformer.' The play

scenes are portrayed in superior fashion, especially that in which the gypsies effect the release of their be- loved Esmaralda just as the hangman is prepared to spring the trap for her execution for the murder of Cap tain Phoebus, of which she was later adjudged innocent. The inquisition scene could hardly have been done better, and it is at this stage that Miss Bara proves herself an artistof high caliber. Throughout the picture, in a role that is diversified. Miss Bara is ever outstanding. She is supported by g cast that is as efficient as the directing, which means par excel fence. Glenn White IS Quasimodo, the redeemed hunchback; John Webb Dillon as Clopin, the gypsy king, and Walter Law as Claude F'rallo, the mo- ted scientist are largely responsible for the success which "The Darling Of Paris" cannot help but enjoy.

to Esmaralda, whom Hugo painted, not as vampire, the part to which Miss Bara has so often aspired, but as a self sacrificing gypsy girl, whose love of right led her to within the shadow of death on the gallows.
 Just as Hugo's novel holds one rivited to the book, so does the Fox production of "The Darling of Paris different in name only from Hugo !, "The Hunchback of Notre Dame"- hold every eye fastened on the screen throughout. In some productions which deal with figures of past cen- turies, there is tendency to over look the fact that costuming and scenery often make a picture. Not so with this work of MT. Edwards. He did not overlook a single detail of technique. Everything is "true as the book" The production of portions of the cathedral of Notre Dame was al- most as realistic as if painted by a master of the brush. All the big

THE DARLING OF PARIS"
Theda Bara in Wm. Fox Super-Fea.
 ture Here Tomorrow.

From the almost flawless presen- tation of this masterly work, which is probably the best turned out of a Fox studio in months, it is easily dis cerned that Director Edwards was in- spired by the identical emotions which come to every reader of Hugo's powerful story of "The Hunchback of Notre Dame." Literature contains few more stirring novels than this immortal contribution from Hugo's noted pen, and in the transformation from print to screen, none of the dra- matic, nor an iota of the human inter- est of the novel is lost. Miss Bara has given to the screen some perform ances that has been considered ele- gant, but she has never risen to a part with more finesse than she does

the other woman becomes known 10 Naomi. She is hearbroken, partlcu-
 larly when Harmon goes so far as to
 ask her to divorce him in order that
 he may marry Helen. This she re-
 fuses to do. Helen, anxious to get the
 man entirely into her clutches, enters into plot with a crooked detective whereby Naomi is to be caught in a
 compromising situation, thus giving
 her husband grounds for divorce from
 her. The detective picks up convict
 just out of Sing Sing and by means of
 decoy message Naomi is induced to
 go to hotel room, where the man i from Sing Sing is waiting for her. Once the two are in the room together
 it is raided by newspaper reporters 1 and a photographer, and flashlight 1 of Naomi in the arms of the convict is obtained.
 The band brings suit for divorce, offering as evidence the stories of the witnesses at the raid and the flash light photograph. He also asks GUS tody of the child. Naomi startles judge and spectators when she de- clares that she should be allowed to keep the child, because Harmon is
 not it's father. The judge, howevr, suspects that Naomi is sacrificing her
 reputation in order to keep her baby, and calling the girl into his private office, he gets the truth from her.
 Meantime there has been an unex- pected development in the affairs of Helen. The man from Sing Sing had been her lover before he went to prison and she is unpfeasantly sur prised when the detectives use of him brings him again into her life The eX-convict is in Helen's rooms, try ing to renew their old association, when Harmon comes to see her. Helen hastily hides the jailbird, but while she is talking to Harmon the convict comes out and tells Harmon of thel woman's past and his connection with it. Mortified at the revelation of Helen's true character, Harmon goes out of her life and in the course of time succeeds in winning his way back into his home.

 Harold Lockwood, Metro star, would rather work in California, in order to play baseball the year round, for which we cannot blame him much.
 Ethel Clayton is playing little game with all the diplomacy of a statesman. She said she had retired from the World Film and the com pany immediately denied it. Ncm Ethel returns to say that she's out, and as she is the one who does the work, she should know. Miss Clay ton is authority for the statement that she was ordered to play in a picture, the morals of which she did not consider uplifting enough. She forthwith packed her wardrobe and left the premises. She has not yet declared a state of war, but she dis played an inclination for preparedness, has delivered her ultimatum and broken relations.
 Following her success in "Snow White," Marguerite Clark has started on an elaborate production of "Fifi,'' la we'll known play written by Molly Elliott Sewell, in which Miss Clark |plays little French girl.

Or even of soft material like wolfe
or silk-should be made to lie fiat
over the hips by pressing the fullness
into pleats. This may be done even
if there are gathers at the belt line.
The French laundress has a way of
pressing pleats in a gathered skirt or
tunic. improving the lines exceeding
much, thereby, and this artifce is
not resorted to half enough over here.
IT you have ever bought a French
nightdress or chemise. you are ia
miliar with this idea; for French lin
gerie is usually pressed into small
pleats below the gathers, giving a
clinging straightness to the garment
instead of the flare that gathers al
ways produce.
The most becoming smock-blouses
to most figures are those Of Georgette
crepe or chiffon; and a band of heavy
trimming material at the bottom will
make such a blouse becoming to ever

embroidery done in silk will add to

are formal affairs suitable for after
noon wear. There are also smock-
blouses for sport wear. and for morn
ing wear with separate skirts of wash
material. A pretty smock Of the lat
ter type is of white cotton lawn with
trimming band, collar, cuffs and belt
of Powered c%retonne: and there are
smocks Of white lawn trimmed with
dotted lawn; and of dotted lawn with
plain white lawn or pique trimming.
There is wide variety of choice in
material and in manner of trimming
when it to smock blouses, and
so many different ideas are represent
ed in the shops that one need not fear
to meet a duplicate of ones own par
ticular ,smock all summer. A useful
smock of sage green crepe de chine is
pictured. Cool. light, easy to get into
and comfortable to wear, this Is the
ideal smock for a mornings shopping
in town; or for the business woman. It
gives a better dressed appearance for,
the street than a frock of tub ma
terial, yet the latter could scarcely be
cooler to wear. The very loose, baggy
lines OF, the smock are ~cleverly man
aged to give IN effect Of trimness.
Elongated points run up and down
from the narrow belt. and the full
sleeve is gathered into a slanting cuff.
Another good feature which you must
not miss is the row Of closely placed.
tiny buttons running the whole length
Of each point hat extends from the
belt. These buttons are green, like
the blouse material, and the belt,
cuffs and a narrow collar turning
down at the back of the neck opening
are Of green and cream printed crepe.
The girl who wears this green smock
over her white tussah sport skirt,
wears a green straw hat with white
and green silk covering. and carries
a green parasol striped in white.
There are some verySgood looking
smock-blouses Of tan pongee, pleated
below a shallow yoke and with a deer
trimming band attached below the
pleats. The blouse falls to the knee
and may be worn like a coat over 6
skirt of tan pongee accompanied BY
some sheer little blouse Of lace OF
chiffon. A deep collar and cuffs o,
dotted foulard silk will make tn,
