"WOMEN'S WEAPONS" IS ETHEL CLAYTON'S LATEST PhOTOPlAY

The various bohemian quarters so-called. of the larger cities. notably that included within the precincts of Washington Square, New York, aye productive of many men and womf T who assume license in all matter of life that is denied the more ra- tiring element of society, or at least is not given as much publicity. For the artificial bohemian loves to pose, to have his name and his deeds alike blazoned before the world. He must be dining and wining and generally talking that he finds work almost crowded out Yet he never wearies of telling what he is going to do And he dearly loves the idea of the soul mating. affinity seeking type. He is. in short, an unadulterated fraud.
 A woman of this type is the dan gerous influence which enters the life of the Nicholas Elliots in "Women' s Weapons" Paramount's newest pie tnre, starring beautiful Ethel Clay ton, which will be shown at the Coli scum theatre Tuesday and Wednes- day The role is played with skill by Vera Doria.

material to many stories which only deserve two or perhaps three reels When I visit the theatre I see pro ductions which invariably run over the time required to relate the story in simple, direct manner. There are too many scenes. too many de tails for the eye to take in and toe many distracting close-ups, though regard the latter as essential to the telling of a story-that is, in ndodera tion.
 "The time will come-and l hope it will come soon-when producers will give to each story only the length of film it is really worth, re- serving for the really powerful dranla he i've reels we sec nowadays.
 And that brings me to the subject Of my newest Goldwyn picture. It is called Money Mad'-you won't mind if I seem to advertise it? Really i. is very, very good, quite apart from ny interest in it, and is one of the few plays I've seen which demand five reols for it's tell'ng. It is quite the strongest play in hich I've ap peared, and the mos, different role ever assigned me.
 The action takes me from child hood to young womanhood ard to, ward the end I become an Oriental seeress in or,.er to direct the move ments, and get at the secret, of some one who has done me a great injury There are a number of interesting people in the cast and the settings are really gorgeous. and my frocks-- oh, but wait until you see me as the fortune-teller can't say word more just now, because we've all been asked to say as little as we can about Money Mad" Saying which Mae Marsh smiled in that quaint way shc has and responded to the call Of Di. rector Hobart Henley.
 'Money Mad" however, comes to the Palace theatre. tonight. There is also Fox Sunshine comedy.

UNIVERSAL CAUSE" AND
 LOVE BE EXPLAINED BY
 MRS. HOAGG TONIGHT

Beginning at o'clock this evening there will be a lecture by Mrs. H. F. Hoagg in Odd Fellows hall on "The Bahai Cause" Mrs. Hoagg said:
 "The Bahai Cause is an universal. inclusive movement that has spread to all parts of the world.
 Ut stands for oneness of mankind. the oneness of the reality of reli- zion, and for the social and spiritual reconstruction of humanity: the bro therhood of man and universal peace.
 Three pe.sonages are identified with this Caise. The first. NJ. Ali Mohamed, who called himself the Bab. meaning door or fate herald ed the dawn of the new age or cycle of universal brotherhood and uni versal peace. He proclaimed himself only the door to the knowledge of one whom he called Baha'ollah, meaning the Glory of God who would bring about this unity of man kind. The Bab's message, and his condemnation of the oppression of the people and the religious preju- be chloroformcd, died after he had dices and superstitions by which they were governed. aroused the opposi- tion of the mullahs to such an extent that he was finany marIyred in 1850, after an Imprisonment of four years.
 Baha'ollah made his proclamation to the world in letters to all reigning heads of the governments. He died in 1892 leaving his son, Abdul Baha Abbad as the center of his covenant. the leader of the Bahai Cause.
 "The Cause of Baha o'llah is the same as the Cause of Christ. It is the same temple and the same foun- dation. In the coming of Christ the divine teachings were given in ac- cordance with the infancy of the hu- man race. The teachings of Baha' e. llah have the same basic principles, but are according to the stage Of maturity of the world and the require ments of this illumined age"
 Abdul Baha say: '"fo be a Baha simply means to love all the world, to love humanity and try to serve it; to work for universal peace and uni versal brotherhood.

MAE MARSH HINTS TO
 FOLLOWERS OF BIG SUR- pRISES IN nMONEY MAD"
PRIsEs Il

Whimsical Mae Marsh, a veteran of the screen in spite of her youth, holds positive opinions relative to it's scope and the future of the cinema. She says, in the first place, that the silent drama will never displace the spoken play and that she cannot see that photoplays will ever be longer except in unusual cases. Indeed, she contends that many of them are too long as they are. Being a graduate of the short one and two-rcel pictures popular some two years ago. she is qualified to speak from experience in both.
 What is really wrong nowadays, said Miss Marsh at the Goldwy;, studios the other day, ''is that the de- mand for long and elaborate produc- tions forces producers to give more

 The belt in front slips through two sits which are exaggerated into making attractive trimming lines for the front. These are marked with smart tailors arrows.
 The coat is bloused just the least bit. back and front, and has a string belt which ties with long ends at the back. The sleeves are kimono, but the way the front of the coat is cut, they give the effect of the set-tn sleeve.

FORMATION OF SISTERHOOO iS
 ADVOCATED

Mrs. Owen Kildare, author and lec- turer, gave a most interesting survey of the industrial problems among working girls and women of the coun- try last night at the United Church Forum. Her suggestion in meetins : the existing problems of the day was the formation of an industrial sister hood, where the women could get to- gether and themselves study the needs of better plans and later install them.
 This s;sterhood the speaker de- cIared, could study industrial prob lens. the indiscrim:nate labor laws affecting women, wages, factory con- ditions and home conditions. The American institution and what ii stands for, should be more thorough " studied by the women, since this would bring about a more compre- henstve program in connection with the laws and rulings of the country the speaker said.
 Mrs. Kildare also advocated Ameri- canizing the foreigner and instruct the foreign women, not only in the language of the country, but in the customs, laws and ideals. The speak CT said the woman question should be considered very seriously since in all stages of industry the woman will be found employed.

FROM PILLOW TO COLLAR.

The pillow was a leather one. For tunately. it had survived the burnt leather craze and had come out of it untouched. But it was beginning to wear in spots. Its owner was con- templating throwing it out, when a happy thought came into her mind She had a big tweed top coat that was perfectly good except for the cuffs. That coat she had seen in the shops, it had had leather collar and cuffs. No sooner said than done! Out came her trusty scissors. Collar and cuffs were ripped off the old top coat and used as patterns for the leather. The new cuffs and collar of leather were lined with the tweed, and now the wearer feels doubly proud, at her economy first of all, and, second, at the smartness of her good -as-new' coat.
