Dear Mrs. Woodrow:
I am sixteen years old and a stem

known ever since 1 was O child meet
at one another's houses and we all

while at my home, we were all crit

said: Dorothy has one great big
fault, and that is that she sympa>
thizes too much with herself"
Now, Mrs. Woodrow, this aston
ished me as well as the other girls.
For few days could not help but
think about 1t, and 1 am still think

am sorry to SAY that found out it
was the truth. But I am very de-

how I can ever overcome such a

Dear Dorothy, 1 do not think you

when one is sixteen, one can enjoy
almost anything, but can easily
imagine a more entertaining and

way of spending an evening than at

 Poppy" at Princess

Norma Talmadge, the popular star, will be seen on the screen at the Princess theatre Monday and Tues day only in a return engagement Of her big photodrama, Poppy" This is adapted from the play by Ben Teal and John P. Ritter, which was taken from Cynthia Stockley's novel. The story is intensely dramatic throughout, dealing with the life of a young girl who graduates from drudgery to refinement.
 Miss Talmadge plays the part of Poppy Destin, whose life is moulded by three men. Luce Abinger, the un- scrupulous; Dr. Bramhan, the gen. erous, and Evelyn Carson, the lover These persons have become known as "the three worst men in South Africa" on account of their adventures with women, but two of them prove that ? they are entitled to less sinister de- scription. Through them the unique situation arises of a young woman married to man without knowing it. while the man she loves and who loves her believes his one meeting with her was only dream. The unraveling of this original plot is one of the most fascinating of the screen stories of the year.

 London, March S.-At one Of the most famous of the London service" clubs few evenings ago the talk turned on the subject of holidays, to which so many British fighting men are now looking forward. Various methods of deciding upon the scene of ones pleasuring were discussed and, apropos, a naval offlcer, whose name is renowned, told this story:
 HThe oueerest way l ever heard of to nick out a spot in which to make holi- day." said he, was disclosed through chance conversation with a fellow passen- ger middle-age American. whom | met on my last trip to the east. Our talk revealed him to be a brewer, Whose home was in Milwaukee
 Having made his pile. he was on his travels and when I inquired his destina- ton, he calmly gave me the surpr'slng answer that he was on his way to the Vale of Cashmere. Now, pleasure trips on the part of elderly American brewers ] to the Vale of Cashmere are rare, to put it mildly, and I was fain to express my astonishment and to inquire why on earth he was going there. He answered, stili in a perfectly matter of-fact way, that he was proceeding to Cashmere for six months holiday, and then proceeded to | tell me of the stonishing process which | hd resulted in his starting off there-fron Milwaukee, Wis.
 "It appeared that, having got his big brewing business into such 8 settled con dftion of prosperity that it would more l or less run itself, and desiring to see , something of the world before he begged out as he put it, he had made up his mind some years previously, to treat himself to six months complete holi- day once every two years.

A few weeks be- fore he was ready to embark upon the | first of the vacations upon which he had decided. he repaired to his library, where he kept this globe, and carried with him one of his wife's hatpins.

''What Every Woman
 Wants '-AlcaZar

A picture which will undoubtedly have special appeal for the fair sex of Birmingham will be shown at the Alcazar theatre for the first three days of the coming week. It is called What Every Wowan Wants,' and Is presented by a superior cast with pretty Grace Darmond in the leading role.
 What Every Woman Wants" Is a drama of fine clothes. Such an ex- hibition of feminine finery has sell dom been seen in Birmingham and the picture just having been released. the fashions of the present minute in the largest cities of the country are brought home for the edification of the ladies of the south.
 The story deals with present day life and is just as up-to-the-minute as the gowns which are shown. The heroine is employed in wealthy mans office as a sterSgrapher She is engaged to one of the clerks, who joins the aviation service when war is declared. Finding that her salary is not sufficient to provide for the necessities of life, the stenographer accepts assistance from her employer and later marries him after she has heard of the death of her sweetheart. Her reasoning is that if she cannot have love, she can at least have luxury and fine clothes, both of which have been denied her.
 Her husband soon tires of her, re- turns to a former mistress, and in the scenes which follow, some excellent acting is done by all members of the cast. One scene, that of trial, is very we'll done and in it Miss Dar- mond reaches exceptional emotional heights. She wears some stunning gowns throughout the story and Is some of the earlier scenes, several dars ing negligee creations reveal the fact that she possesses beauty of figure as well as of face.
