SETTING IS LAVISH IN ''LOMBARDI, LTD. g

The new dark stage at the Screen Classics, Inc, studios in Hollywood underwent its christening recently, when a Set representing the design ing room of an exclusive Fifth Ave nue dressmaking establishment was completed and Bert Lyteu played in 1t one of the big scenes of ''Lombar- di, Ltd.,''
 This smart comedy drama the young star is using as his first stel- lar vehicle under the fewer and better" pictures.
 The set, designated by M. P StauI- cup, MT. LytelTs technical director, was one of the most expensive and beautiful ever built by the Metro technical staff, and it held the ex- act center of the new $3S,o 900 stage. It represented the private retreat of Tito Lomba eccentric and lovable modiste, which character MT I4yten is assuming and it's furnishing was as luxurious as could be found in the most expensive mansion. The floor was muffled in thick carpet of deep blue, and the walls were hung with wonderful Oriental tapestries. A low mahogany desk filled one corner, while directly op- posite was one of the marvellous gown creations for witch I,ombardi is noted, Large Rockwood vases were placed at artistic intervals and at one end of the room was a life like painting in oil, the result of lei sure moments of the designer of gowns.
 On the stage the Oliver Morosco production of tLombardi, Ltd"
 brought much fame to it's creators Frederic and Fanny Hatton. It was ric+urize5 by June Matthias head of
 the Screen Classics, Inc, scenario staff Alice Lake, who has appear ed in two of MT. LyteIIs recent suc- cesses, is again cast for the leading honors opposite him. Ann May, Vir-
 ginia Caldwell, Jean Acker and
 Juanita Hansen also have important roles.

Tom Santschfs giant frame looks as if it would be proof against all most any attack. The big, handsome actor more than met his match how ever, at Hayden Lake, Idaho, where he was appearing in scenes for the new Cathrine Curtis production. A vicious horse kicked Tom twice, and the last reports were that he was in a Spokane hospital with three frac- tured ribs and a broken arm. Work of the Curtis company is held up pending Santschfs recovery.

Dancing as an art has received decided impetus this year since the representative governing board of professional dancing has gone on rec ord as disappearing the ungraceful and highly immodest steps" which have come from the cabarets from time to time. Madame Jubovska, one of the representative dance artistes of this country, whose international renown has been won because of her remarkable intelligence and grace in devising and executing interpretative and classical dances, is the latest ex- ponent of popular appeal for classical dancing. It is Madame Lubovska's theory that the dance is in it's infancy and must bedeveloped by a commun- ion of interest between the artist and the artistic world. She is the star of the popular Palais Royal review, one of the popular nocturnal entertain ments of the Metropolis, and has thus taken the higher form of art to a field heretofore restricted to the more pop ular, and has happily, naG, it quite as popular as the programmes here tofore given. Whether it is a. studie6 plan or a coincidence, the most note5 artists are serving the cause of star
 intelligence by presenting not necee
 sarily as education but as an evidence of recognition that grace and art

To meet the demand for additional recital space in New York, the The atre Parisien, the latest artistic en- terprise in the heart of the theatre district, will be impressed into ser vice as a, recital hall. Among the sev- eral distinctive programmes arranged for this theatre during the season will be one given by Madame Ruano Bogislav, a singer of unusual per sonality, charm and intelligence. Ma dame Bogislav is a concert singer of the kind that one meets with but seldom. Her programmes are unique and original, and her manner of ren- dition stamps her as the American Guilbert, with the added value of be- ing more indigious to the American concert lovers heart than the French singer. Gypsy and Slavic folk songs are the best of Madame Bogislav's repertoire.

The French American Association
 for Musical Art is a distinctive and valuable contribution to the manager ia end of American musical affairs. By arrangement with the Ministre des Beaux Arts in Paris, it brings to this country such musical artists as are accepted as being representative of the best in French musical art, and through intelligent and effective presentation, brings Jo our shores the best that France has to offer. The first appearance this year of Magde- leine Brard, the remarkable and high ly gifted little French pianiste, was held this week at Aeolian Hall. Last year this miss-she is but sixteen years of age and a, prize winner in the COnServatoire-mad several ap- pearances in America, and won the favor the severest music critic. Her programme at Aeolian Hall this week. which is but the first of a series of appearances in the United States, was distinctively effective and brilliantly artistic. The artiste is a mite of body, with the face and form of a child and the talent and intelligence of a mature artiste. The reception from press and public was flattering in the extreme. Later she will appear at orchestras in this city and in re- citals and as soloist in other cities.

Pietro Ton is to make a long tour, Joseph Bonnet is return ing from France and a score of others following the propaganda lead of MT.

Ton in Musical America as saying that "the crux of the matter seems to be not how one plays but what one plays. Several artistes have carried into the concert field, too much of what I call church music. They have not made the distinctions between church music for the organ and con- cert organ music And there is a very big difference. l am very strict about this, and the result is my audiences do not get bored and walk out but demand encores just as at a piano re- cftal.'
