Mile. Dherlys has been appearing for
several years in the revues Of Paris; she
could not be considered a great dramatic
artist, nor yet could she create an over
whelming furore with the beauty OF her
voice; but she has her success, in spite OF
all this, in simply just appearing and snow
ing how she looks. And she does this TO
perfection!
With an absolute abandonment OF all
the conventional ideas Of propriety, she
sacrifices herself to her art which has for
its principle objective the wearing OF as
few clothes. not only as the French law
may permit, outgoing beyond even these
rather broad limitations-as the public will
stand for And Partisan public will
stand for a great deal-not of clothes. but
of nudity.
Mile. Dherlys has been consistently pro-
gressive in the following Of her art When
she made her debut a year before the war
she was rather discreet in the costumes
she wore, that is. discreet for Paris. Since
then her garbing inspirations have become
interestingly less and less complicated un-
til the other day she came out in revue
at the Casino de Paris in suggestion
serving as a costume that fairly took the
breath of the fashionable audience that
had gathered for the first night.
With that stimulated ambition that
comes with success she was not yet salts
fed. The yearning to gain the pinnacle
OF fame that filled her artistic soul urged
her on to do greater things, and she did!
She threw conventionaities to the wind
with II any shreds of costume that might
have remained-and appeared in the re-
cent production of Nougues's opera, Quo
vadis," at the Champs -Elysees Theatre as
venus arising from a shell, with nothing
in the way OF drapery to mar the realism
of the conception.
The police did not interfere with the per.
formance Perhaps 1t is because that In
nate love of. the beautiful in nature, which
possesses the French to such marked
degree. has gripped the Paris police In its
clutches, developing the sense of admira'
ton to such an overpowering degree that
the sense of duty has been stified. They
feel that a condemnation Of such artistic
loveliness Is impossible to their aesthetic
natures.
Anyhow. Mile. Dherlys is allowed to give
an exhibition that would be unthinkable In
America. although many artistic persons
would appreciate it,
Mile. Dherlys was brought into the lime
light in the first years Of the war by her
association with a well-known American
Jockey-Tod Sloane. Just before the war.
when Mile. Dherlys was playing in Paris,
size made the acquaintance OF this one
time idol OF the turf and a romance re-
suited which lasted for over year until
the latter part OF 1915. vixen the jockey
went to England She accompanied him
there, and II was not long after that ser
iOus complications arose over some card
games to which the British authorities
objected. Mile. Dherlys was implicated In
the affair The chosen guests were usually
British officers who had come to London
on leave and who had to depart before any
complaints could be made. But one OF the
supposed Officers on leave happened TO
be connected with the War Office, and his
complaint caused the departure Of the
American Jockey for America. Mile.

Dherlys then returned to
France. where her talents WEN
were properly appreciated. E1v3
About this time Mile.
Derhlys obtained a con-
tract from Flo Ziegfeld to
appear in New York. and
left in February. 1916, on
the Lafayette, with distinguished
company aboard. On board Nile.
Dherlys was the Joy and life OF
the boat, and il was not long be-
fore her extreme attractiveness
and great beauty had caught the
serious attentions OF young
French diplomat, who was on his
way to take up his post in the
French Embassy in Washington.
He was most devoted to Mile Dherlys.
but, on the arrival of the boat in the port
Of New York. his highly sentimental ma
ture was subjected to an awfully crude
shock when Mile. Dherlys was detained
by the immigration officials and sent to
Ellis Island on account of reports about
her London activities. r
Subsequently, Mile. Dherlys fulfilled her
contract in New York. where she went as
tar as the high standards of the American
police officials would permit. These Amer
lean police did not possess the aesthetic
sense that their French confreres exhibit.

THE world has heard the astonishing.

gayety and light was subjected to puri-
tanical curfew law-that Partisan pleas

ing, an hour when formerly they were just
beginning to enjoy life.
But after all there is bright light spot
left. That spot is to be found at the the
atres The government dared not go to
the length of closing the theatres on the
alleged pretext of economizing fuel. To
order them to put out lights at ten o'clock
would have been equivalent to shutting
them up in the evening. for theatre can
not start at $3.50 and conclude satisfying
performance before ten o'clock.
AS a result the theatres have become
almost the sole places of amusement. The
gay throngs have fed from the darkened
boulevards and cafes to fill the bright tenn
pies of the drama and vaudeville,
As a further result the theatres have
become more daring in their physical dis
plays than ever before. The whole mass
OF nocturnal pleasure-seekers has turned
to the theatre for their only amusement,
and hence it becomes highly profitable to
supply spectacles that appeal to their raw.
enous appetites.
Theatres OF the first rank that formerly
produced works of the highest artistic and
literary value, are now displaying acres OF
reckless nudity. Such an exhibition al
that Of the beautiful Simone Dherlys. who
is appearing in the opera, Quo Vadis." is
an example of what is happening generally.
Mile. Dherlys displays her superb figure
covered only with its exquisite natural
skin. except for a few strips of feathers
and pearls. Even Paris gasped at the first
sight.
Another instance of the prevailing ten
dency is when the refined and digniied
prima donna, Marie Lafargue, appears
partially unclad in the arms Of an equally
undraped professional athlete.
The "snuffer" law appears to have had
an equally startling effect on the daytime
costumes OF fashionable society. AS tine
leaders of fashion do not have sufficient
opportunity to display bare backs and
original decollete costumes at night they
are forced TO give daylight exhibitions

SUMNER OPTIMISM.

Simmer is an optimistic season. Few
naople are able TO see through the
claring heat the chilly days to follow.
Every one knows that summer can
not last; that the harvest ends and
that there will be long period when
there will be no harvest. But with
such plentifulness about us. it is hard
to believe there will ever be a lessened
supply of anything, says Columbus
Dispatch. The birds out in the field.
and the beasts, with rare exceptions,
are the same way. They are not look
ing ahead to the winter. Perhaps it is
lust as well. Maybe 1t would not be a
good thing If we worried all summer
about the cold that Is certain to come
upon us this winter But it is certain
" not well to be too optimistic at any
time-not to the point of sitting down
and trusting tomorrow to bring us to-
morrow's supplies. The summer re-
sorts prosper upon this summer OPP
timism, whether they know it or not.
otherwise some of these people who
are spendingsmore than they ought to
upon their vacations, would be think
ing of the winters coal supply, or the
heavy clothing they are going to re-
quire. Vacations are all right; we
complain not at any mans taking
period off and enjoying himself while
benefting his health. But the fact
remains that many persons suffer
through the winter because Of their
extravagances during the summer.
