The WeU Dressed Woman
By GLORIA SWANSON,

With the past war reaction from FSerpowering simplicity in dress, evening head dresses have come into fresh favor. Though, thank good ness, we are 8 long way from the days when French beauties vied with aIity of their head dress and spent vast sums of money on it I am always aghast and amused when the tale is repeated of the lady who ere ated such a sensation by appearing one evening with an exQuisiteIy wrought gold coach md four perched on her tower of hair.
 I think that perhaps the prettfest and most becoming of our head dresses is the one we have filched from Casar-the laurel wreath. I saw a very pretty one an evening ago. The leaves were made of black panne velvet and bound with a mar row edge Of gold. Of course, could not wear this one as my hair is too dark, but it would be simply ravish- ing on a pure blonde or copper haired beauty.
 Personally. lean toward the Spanish comb and the new and elab- crate versions of it.
 One of the very fashionable shops has one that is not a comb at all but is worn as 8 cCmb and has all the effect. It is in the lower sketch A polygon of dark blue and green changeable taffeta is almost com pletely covered with small blue and green beads and larger irridescent

POLE Letter

l Dear Hen:
 Iris a dainty spot at Polls this week, or I should say it's dainty in spots and with several large spots Here's pointing out the spots as spotted theIn-
 i DeMerest and Collette are two bright spots, and they make it easy. 1 They're there with the originality, livened up with some good music and much, much comedy. You want to watch 'em close. Hen, or they will put some comedy over that is so smooth that you won't get wise to it until it's gone. Watch Bill and his vioI.
 MuIdoon, Franklin and Rose Well, all can say for these two boys and the girl is that they are songsters and dancers of the first order, and pre- sented with a unique setting. And clever on their feet, I'll say so! You don't want to miss them, ole boy, cause they sure are worth looking at.
 And speaking of something good to look at, well, just you run and take a good long slant at Elaine Beasley. She's on three times and gets better every time. Doggone, I wish that she had come back six times instead of only three. Shes a personality gal, and believe you me, Hen, her per sonality isn't all in her department, no, sirree!
 Raymond and Lytle stepped few fancy ones for the boys and girls. She's a vest pocket edition, Hen, but nevertheless can tinkle her toes. Yeah.
 Dixon, Lynch and Dixon handed us a bunch of laughs la rube and wound up with some dancing and clever tumbling that all goes to make up a good skit.
 ''The Passionate Pilgrim" is a beaut, Hen- You remember how we used to devour those stories in the Cosmopolitan some time ago? Well the screen adaptation, especially in this case, is as good as you can ask for. Don't miss this one, and know you won't
 Pathe News with the latest events is always one of the bright spots, at least for me, and what's mine is yours, eh?
 So long, one lung,

A Fox News Weekly starts off the show at the Plaza and as usual is full of interesting current events, perhaps the most striking this week being the scenes of disaster and deso- lation following in the wake of the Pueblo floods Topics of the Day ex- tracted a few gfggles from the aud fence and then a day with Jack Dempsey in traiing. followed on the screen There was no applause.

None of dhe spectators walked out on this feature Dorothy Dalton is at her best and is given q wide scope. dur ing which she has one opportunity to show a pretty bit of typical feminine mysteries and tears.
 The story is of the ~t9'' days. when the gold rush was on in the Cana dian Northwest and the famous Canadian Mounted Police were a new organization, as efficient as they are today. Wine flows freely, and many of the scenes which are taken in dance halls in the mushroom mining towns, recalls days that are gone, probably never to return gold or no gold.

 Tt is high time to make a detailed statement regarding the masterpiece without taxing the readers patience any further.

 credit for the birth of the master piece. An ancient and perfectly proper custom in Japan had some thing to do with the thing. Kissing is not anywhere as popular in Japan as it is in America-especialIy with the American movie heroes and heroines. It is particularly unpopu- lar with the Japanese censor. To the heathen Japanese way of looking at things, kissing is a primitive. un- couth way of translating the very poetry of sentiment in the magic mo ments of iife's Maytirne.
 It's Unhygienici
 When some protesting individuals including some of the American rep reSentAl1VeS or prOduclnS companies in Los Angeles, made more than one impoIite remark about the intelli- gence of the Japanese movie censor, he retorted that kissing is not only savage and degrading, as the Japa- neSe ethical sense holds it, but also it is unhygienic- And to show that he had the better of the argument he of fered to read to any representatives of American film companies not only one but quite a number of passages from some of the most eminent American medical authorities on the subject.
 ''This, then, is the reason why an American gentleman treats a few of his intimate friends in Tokio, off and on, to certain film masterpieces, to their eternal delectation- The moral is that even the censor is not without an excuse for existence, and, more over, even q government official can produce a masterpiece of humor if only he is unconscious about it"

It's Will Rogers Treat!

Will Rogers stood treat the other day at the GoIdwyn studios at one of the biggest luncheon parties that has ever happened in the studio lunch room. In spite of it's size-everyone in the organization was there-it was q quite informal affair, and som ewhat in the nature of a surprise. No one knew until he came to pay his check that Rogers had declared himself host
 It all happened because he star had won a horse rallied off by one of his cowboy friends-a horse worth $25o, in the expert opinion of the winner. Since he had spent only about $50 in tickets on the raff1e he figured that a treat would be the proper thing. After the luncheon, when the cashier informed him of the total check-a trifie over $100- Bill grinned and remarked: ''Fellers eat that had never eat before

No Movie Kisses For Our
 'sIittIe Brown Brothers!''

You can't kiss on the screen in To Eio and get away with it! Japs don't take kindly to our well-known and popular style of osculation, and every film thaL reaches the FlOwery Kingdom has all the kisses neatly shipped out of it by the searching shears of the Oriental censor. Adachi KinnoSuke, Japanese film magnate, tells us all about it in a re- cent issue of the New York Tribune:

TO THE
 LOVELORN
By BEATRICE FAIRFAX.

Better Wait
 Dear Miss Fairfax:
 am soon to be eighteen years of age, and feel a great affection for a certain girl, two years younger than I. In fact, we love each other. Now, l am about to graduate from a high school and wish to work my way through g five or six year course in college. My friend is especially taI- ented for music, and she desires that we both pursue our own fields for next five or six years, after which time we should get married. Now, I do not try to hide this friendship from my parents who object very strongly. This. girl is slightly lame, due to an accident in her early life, and is not very strong girl. I've tried to see if Besides, my parents say that if wish to go throHgh a six-year col lege course I must forget about any girl, otherwise money and time will be wasted, for shall not be able to complete. the course.
 PERPLEXED.
 My dear lad, you are child and the girl you talk of marrying is far too young to be choosing her life's partner. If only you had been two sensible young things and hadn't you might manage to be friends and enjoy each others society now and then But in six years you may de- velop along lines altogether different from those of her growth and you may have little or nothing in com mon- Don't indulge in any heart breaking 'fareweIIs' and don't bind each other with pledges, but try to bring things down to a less hectic

Tina Bambinasti a little Italian acrobat, haa been engaged by Ster- ling, member of a New York theatri- cal firm, to come to New York as a star at a salary of $500 a week. When she arrives in native costume and re- ports at the office, Sterling recognizes that he has picked another lemon and asks Lawson, the g1urn legal member of the firm, to find a way to Squirm put of the contract Orders are given not to admit Tina, but she puts the entire office force to flight by her athletic prowess, and crawls through the transom into the inner office.

Lawson wants her to give up her career for him. She wants both and is urged on by Wilkins to sign the motion picture contract with him, hoping thereby to separate her from Lawson
