And these rich fabrics are not mo-
nopolized by the full-fedged women of
society. The younger set is allowed

flowers deck out pretty dance frocks
and sparkling bands of sequins in all

Larger Vessels of
Government-Built Fleet
to Be Privately Owned

Washington, Sept. PA mer-
chant marine policy contemplating
gradual REIMBURSEMENT to private
operation of the larger vessels of the
Governme built fleet and immedi-
ate sales of the smaller vessels has
been formulated by the executive
committee of the National Mercan-
tile Marine Association, it was an
nounced to-day by Edward b. Bur
ling, chairman of the committee.
Recommendations of the committee,
it was said, will be submitted to the
associations council of 45 members
for adoption and presentation to
Congress as a proposed guide in the
enactment of legislation
Believing that the immediate sale
of all ships to private operators is
mot only undesirable but impracti-
CAL" the committee recommends
that the large steel vessels be sold
only as the development of private
firms might warrant, with the sale
of such ships confined to American
firms and made at current world
market prices. Immediate disposal
of the smaller vessels is recommend
ed, however. without restriction as
to purchasers.

Edna Goodrich, said to be the rich
est actress on the American stage,
will personally appear at the Or
pheum Theater tonight in the gay
French farce. Sleeping Partners
Miss Goodrich has appeared here as
leading woman and co-star with Nat
c. Goodwin and her present vehicle
has behind 1t record of success in
New York, London and Paris. This is
the only company on tour in this
play and the original production
which was seen at the Bijou Theater
in New York will be used in the cur
sible that Miss Goodrich has had a
role more suitable to her than the
French wife in Sleeping Partners"
With her wonderful beauty and nat
ural vivacity, she possesses all the
charms of the French ladies of our
Imagination.
Aside from Miss Goodrich's beauty
she has always been accepted as one
of our best dressed stage women. In

Miss Goodrich there Is a rather full
tunic finished by very wide black
lace which falls over the tight under

a charming little velvet hat trimmed
with eParadise plumes and a hand
some Russian sable set.
In he second act of Sleeping Part

gorgeous royal ermine coat made es-
pecially for her and valued at over
ten thousand dollars. 1t is made of
the finest pure white ermine in a
lovely dolman, cape effect. But when
she throws aside the coat and re-

miration. Her gown is of luxuriant

is given the gown by the wide panel

draped diagonally from the hip to the
bottom of the skirt at the opposite
side and up the back of the skirt to

will sing in the production of Ten
Nights in a Bar-Room" is one that
has become very popular, once heard,
it rings the ears like Some old

years has produced and played such
parts as THE Gladiator" "Ingomar."

song, like the play is an old one, and
was first introduced by Mr.. Downing
when he created the part of Hank
Monk in Joaquin Miller's play of the
West, "Tally-Ho!" There are men
and women to-day, who remember
this song. But to the present gem
Grafton is a new song. There are
other songs in the play sung by other
