NEW YoRK's OLYGLOT PRESS
One Hundred and Fifty Newspapers
in Foreign Languages Are
Printed in City.

No fewer than $50 newspapers III
foreign tongues are printed in New
York. japanese, Lettish, Persian and
Slovak and many other foreign
peoples may in that city of diverse
nationalities read newspaper in their
own tongue.
Socialistic and anti-Socialistic, anar-
chistic, Zionistic or anti-Zionistic are
these foreign papers. They often are
organs of workingmen's organizations,
but most Of all are the organs Of city
politics.
When a Russian paper publishes an
article entitled: Is Patriotism Incur
able?" and an anarchistic sheet in
quires, "What would happen if the
president died?" is it any wonder that'
church and government become uneasy
and agree that this babel of tongues
can bear watching?
On the other hand, the influence Of
many of these foreign papers is along
the line of Americanization. "One who
has once drunk out Of Americas foun-
tain" declares one with enthusiasm,
"will always remain a free slave of the
country"
The Greek who wants to ''obey that
impulse" may read Kapanos; the Pole.
Nolyl; there is also a Yiddish big
aiming to rival Life in humor.
There is a Spanish movie magazine, a
baking magazine in Yiddish, Greek
emporium devoted to confectionery,
and Of course a French fashion paper.

rial to satisfy the most varied taste.

Reward Not Always to the Great.

A London booksellers catalogue an
nounces a copy Of Brownings first
book for $4,000. Yet, when it was
printed, in 1889, through the assist
ance of the poets aunt, Mrs. Silver
thorne, the poet would have been glad
to have sold a copy in it's little drab
boards for few shillings. The reason
it is worth so much money now is that
few of them have survived and this
particular copy is described as inn
maculate. There may not be money in
poetry for the poets, but if the poet
only is thoughtful enough to become
great his early trifies may bring a
food of gold to some happy possessor.

She's not SIS common as one might

talk baby talk as Lola does, she as-
sumes any other kind Of affectation

something more than nero ingenue.
Her popularity is due to her unu,ual-

work is delightful. She has picked

". . l must beg to differ with
you in your criticism Of June IL.
You infer that Elizabeth of England
was plain woman as compared to
the beauty of Mary Queen Of Scots.
This is not true. Documents of that
time all agree that Princess Elizabeth
was very handsome girl (she was only
twenty-five when she became queen),
rather domineering looking, perhaps,
but distinctly handsome. In fact, when
her half-sister Mary was on the throne
one of the reasons why Mary wished
to sentence Elizabeth to death land
she almost succeeded in her wish) was
because Elizabeth's pretty face had
caught the tickle eye Of Philip of
Spain, Mary's adored husband. 50
Mary wished at one blow to dispose
Of the Protestant heiress to England
and the attractive girl whom Philip
was scheming to marry later on.
Elizabeth as a girl had beautiful
chestnut hair, blue eyes and lovely
clear English complexion. Of course,
she was always inclined to be domi-
neering; her clear brain made her feel
that she was more than a match for
most men. In her old age she was
distinctly ugly; because she would not
have gray hair she put on an awful
chestnut wig, and with her faded eyes
and wrinkled face you can imagine
the appalling result!
"Mary Queen Of Scots also wore
wig. and after her execution it was
neatly taken from her head and a
decent frilled muslin cap put on in
stead. My own opinion is that Eliza
beth was extremely long-suffering with
her venomous cousin of Scotland. Marv
had attempted to poison Elizabeth
three separate times, and surely that
is enough to annoy any one, even
great and wonderful Queen!-A British
Citizen"
We offer no defence. Obviously. the
writer is on better terms with Eliza
beth than we have ever been. If Mary
indeed tried to poison her cousin three
times we cannot deny Elizabeth's right
to be vexed.

vues originated in America by Mr.. Zieg-
field in 1907.
Rennold Wolf and Gene Buck are re-
sponsible for the lines and lyrics OF
! the new edition. The score is by Louis
Hirsch and Dave Stamper. Irving Ber-
lin has supplied the words and music
for two elaborate numbers, while Vic
tor jacob composed and dedicated to
the "Follies" waltz.
The incoming revue is to be pre-
sented in two acts, which have been
staged by Ned Wayburn, under the
supervision of Mr.. ziegfeld. Joseph
Urban, the noted art decorator, de-
signed and painted the numerous
scenes One of the many features of
the entertainment will be an original
picture, created and presented by Ben
! Ali Haggin, the artist.
The cast, which is made up of more
than $50 entertainers, is more lyrical
OF the "Follies" than any previous year.
Among the principals employed in the
presentation of the popular show arc
Will Rogers, Marilynn Miller, Eddie
Cantor, Lillian Lorraine, w. C. Fields,
Ann Pennington, Frank Carter, Allyn
King. Frisco, Savoy and Brenna, Harry
Kelly, Kay LAUREL, Bee Palmer, the
Fairbanks Sisters, Delaney, Gladys
Feldman, Martha Mansfield, Dorothy
Leeds, Florence Grips, Gus Minton
and others.
In selecting the beauties for the new
"FoiIes" Mr.. Ziegfetd required every
applicant to appear in his presence, be-
Tore contracting with her, free of anv
"make-up." BY this method he has
succeeded in collecting an army of real
and not made-to- order beauties.
Immediately following the opening a
gala performance is to be given by the
Alegteid Midnight Frolic" company on
the New Amsterdam Theatre Roof.

come out. Of course certain phases
of the aesthetic dancing movement are
full OF pose. Deluders and deluded are
to be found here and there. But then
the old fashioned form O.. dancing was
always fragrant hypocrisy. A few
little girls and George Bassetts may
have enjoyed learning the two-step
and the polka and the lancers, but
everybody else accepted it as drudgery
and smiled as the rules required. Even
in its fakiest phases youngsters and
older ones, too, enjoy the privilege of
Kicking and running and jumping in
the name of dancing. And whatever
the motive, it is good to get out of
doors. Perhaps our plays also would
be more exciting it we could hammer
down few walls and get rid of the
wax polish.
Only brave men and foolish ones
predict what the movies will be and
can do, but it is safe to say that for
the present there seem TO be certain
I
picture must make up what it lacks
In depth by its breadth. If it cannot
show VI the depths of mans heart
1t can show US the Colorado Canyon.
Some OF us are willing to accept buck
ing broncos in place Of tortured con-
sciences. We do not mean to imply
that the movies must confine them
selves to western plays, but it does
seem that scenario writer is throw
ing away the peculiar advantages of
his medium when he uses a p.ay
tightly squeezed into one set. There
are other d fficultes as we'll in putting
"A Dolls House" on the screen. In
most cases Ibsen begins his story in
the middle. The conflict of his drama
arises out Of something which has gone
before.
The most effective manner of telling
movie story seems to be to begin at
the beginning. 1t is impossible for
the film to convey the intensity of the
compressed scene of an Ibsen play. II
"A Doll's House" belongs on the screen
at all the story should be told in a
screen manner. The scenario writer
should show what Nora was at the time
OF her marriage. He should show how
she became doll. Also it would be
more effective if the story of the trip
to Italy and the forged note were all
put before us. Where a dramatist
explains in words a scenario writer
should use pictures. As a matter Of
TACT the screen version of "A Dolls
House" has been held very closely to
the play. Only few scenes not in the
drama are shown in the picture. OF
course it Is impossible to gain the full
intensity Of the final scene between
Torwald and Nora in merely pictorial
representation. Curiously enough, al
though much dialogue from the play
Is used on the screen, the most telling
line is omitted. At no point does Nora
say: II believe that before all else
l am reasonable human being"
Ina Claire's performance in "Polly
With Past" is interesting. In many
respects it is remarkable, but after all.
it is stunt. Only by careful watch
ing can one realize, that Miss Claire's
highest talent is imitation. because she
mimics no one performer, but several,
flashing back and forth from Jane Cowl
TO Frances Starr to Sarah Bcrnhardt to
Maude Adams.
