Bird Of Paradise feathers seem to be
one of the features. and a very pleasing
feature Of the fashions for all and
winter.
This little hat Of mine exploits II in a
new and particularly pleasing way. In
stead OF being made up into stiff plumes
or masses, each feather is taken singly
and sewn fat on the crown, thereafter
dropping, waving, wandering as it
listeth.
The hat itself is observation-disclosures
ing because It dares to be both small and
"dressy'' in a season when the picture
hat is arrogantly elbowing IT'S way to
the fronts Of the show windows. The
brim In back is negligible while It Is
almost as wide as the crown is high in
front and is turned up softly and careless
ly against the same.
with 1t I am carrying my fascinating
new pocketbook. I really can't call it a
bag on account of It's shape, nor a purse
on account of its size and fabric. 1t is
made Of a lovely black and gold brocade.
Darling little pairs Of gold love birds
sprinkIed all over a heavy lustreless black
silk. And it ought to hold everything
I feel | must have with me, being about
half the size OF q brief case.
In my other hand you will see my
new Spanish comb. 1t is made all of cut
Jet and is fascinating for its simplicity
and sparkle.

MARION AND BERT WIN AT KEITH'S
Jazz CLarinetist at Lyric-tQuo Yadis Opens

Marion Harris, with her demure
naughtiness, her youthful charm, soft
voice and the clever support Of her ac-
companist, Lou Handman, lived up to the
billing OF her act as "a notwithstanding
musicale" at Keith's, S-cc=.rrday after
noon. With her very mild "coon-shout-
ing" her clever limitations and mono
logs she won round after round of
voeiferous applause The dainty singer,
who is well known in voice at least, by
her photograph work, has a nice low
voice combined with good looks, mis-
chievous eyes and plenty of personality
Her act has sparkle and spice without a
trace of the "risque."
The colorafnra soprano voice, and bril-
liant gowns n everything Of Bert Enrol
came in for goodly slice Of the honors.
He hits high Ca with apparent ease, and
makes demure looking bride in full
wedding regalia. However, Enrol has
real mans voice and 1t seems pity to
waste, to camoufage such talent with the
falsetto effect He does a few bits of
grand opera in masculine attire in eV-
cellent fashion. Gordon Stewart at the
piano and the singers young wife added
a few harmonious notes to the act.
Brent Hayes with his "talkin" banjo
pulled off a flock of instrumental aero
battles that made his lone banjo sound
like a whole orchestra, that brought en-
thusin site response from his hearers.
"The Man Who Butted In" one-act
playlet, presented by VIII NJ. Greasy,
Blanche Dayne and Marion Hodge, is an
incident concerning the woman who is
causing her small salaried husband to
live beyond his means, and the way the
employer and uncle Of said husband
teaches her q lesson with happy results.
The three do nice work, Mr.. Creesey, who
is also the author of the play, brings
down many a laugh with his homily wit
ticisms as the country general store
keeper.
kate Gilmore" and "Sam Williams"
give humorous dialog, billed Wanted
A Cook" that is rather crude in spots,
Kate" being anything but an "ingenue'
and admitting it, and "Sam" being bit
of q pianist.
Ruth Wells and her syncopated step
pers did some clever dancing, featuring
some unique costumes and artistic
scenic effects Ruth Wells is graceful
dancer and sings a few songs that lend
variety to the act.
Handlers and Mills in eccentric dances
and a lot of slapstick comedy stunts
put over their rather nut" line with
plenty of 'pep" that gets them good
hand.
The three Lordons in an acrobatic act,
dropping bombs of comedy and thrills,
films of Aesop's fables and the Pathe
News together with special orchestral
numbers complete the bill.

A little while after Puss and Tom
Thumb had left the house OF the Three
Bears they heard the sound of a bell,
and by and bye, as they went farther into
the wood, the sound grew louder and
louder. And just then Puss Junior saw
a sparrow In a tree. He sat very still,
holding a bow in one claw and an ar
row in the other. So Puss said:
"Who killed Cock Robin?
/, said the Sparrow,
With my little bow and arrow,
I killed Cock Robin"
How did you know Cock Robin was
killed ~ asked Tom Thumb. 81 didn't,
replied Puss. But when I saw the bow
and arrow in the claws of that Spar
row l suspected him. sparrows are al
ways lighting Robins, you know"
All this time the bell kept on tolling.
And, oh, dear me. 1t was a moarnful
sound. who saw him DIE" asked Tom
Thumb.
II said the Fly,
With my little eye,
l saw him die
And then the littlea Fly flew over to a
bush close to a brook and looked into
the sparkling water. And Just then 4
pretty fish with a little dish in its mouth
swan up close to the edge OF the ferns
and water grasses
Poor Cock Robinr" said Puss Junior
to the little Fish.
''Who caught his blood?"
Il said the Fish
With my little DISH,
/ caught his blood"
IT'S very sad" whispered Tom Thumb,
as he and Puss turned away from the
brook and continued their way through
the wood. "All the little people In the
forest are doing something to srow how
sorry they are"
II wonder who'll make his shroud :"
seid Puss Junior. And then, all Of a
sudden a big black beetle crawIed out
from under log carrying a large white
CLOTH
who'll make his shroud?
], said the Beetle,
With my thread and needle,
I'll make his shroud."
And after that he sat down and took
out his needle and thread and began to
work on the shroud for poor Cock Robin.

SWEATMAN STOPS BILL
AT LYRIC WITH HIS CLARINET.

The Lyric bill is headed this week by
The Futuristic Revue" and we hope that
the future will bring many more such
revues. There are seven people in this
act, violinist and six singers, each of
whom is above the average. The violin
ist was well received, as were each of
the singers. The costumes and scenery
are very elaborate and reflect the new
influence in stage decorations.
Wilbur c. Sweatman and COMPANY
close the bill but run away with the
honors from an applause standpoint.
Sweatman is a clever jazz clarinetist and
also plays a saxophone. He brought
down the house playing THE Rosary"
on three clarinets at one time. However,
his program is mostly jazz of the sort
one hears on the records. He is ably
assisted by a pianist and a jazz drum
mer who also has a pleasing voice
BERTHE Heron, lila Grannon and com
pany are two women and a man in a
blackface act called Rock a Bye Baby.
They have a line of comedy and sing
plantation melodies. Their best number
is their own version of "Strut Miss Liz
zie"
Skipper, Kennedy and Reeves in col
lege campus capers is comedy trio with
good voices. Their comedy is only fair,
They should do more singing.
Thomas Monroe and Helen Mae In
Their Second Meeting" have a clever lit
tie act, with special songs. Mr. Monroe
has some funny lines as a burglar and
Miss Mae is amusing as a hotel switch
board operator. They close with neat
song and dance.

called pink Stockings" Women like

CONCERNING
"QUO VADIS."

Nero didn't fiddle while Rome burned.
He played q Tyre. At least, that is what
he does in "Quo Vadis" at Englishs this
week.
"Quo Vadis" is among the first CT the
great colosseum scene in which the Christ
has lost none OF its value and none OF It's
thrill through age In its class 1t has
hardly been surpassed
The scenes In the great city OF Rome
Of the first century, while that city was
going through the period OF its decay
through the riotous living Of its citi-
Gems, are masterpieces in motion picture
art. Especially is this true Of the scenes
showing the burning Of Rome and of the
great colosseum scene in which the Chris
tian martyrs are tortured.
The story, as nearly every one will re-
member, he's to do with Vinitius. a mill
tary tribune, and the object of his af-
lection, Christian maiden named
Lygia Through the persecution of
Nero, the mad emperor, she is forced to
hide, but Vinitius follows her and ind
ing her becomes a Christian.
Meanwhile Nero, in one of his fits Of
madness and led on. by his natterers, or
ders that Rome be burned. This scene
is one OF the most spectacular in tho
movies, with tits reproduction Of Roman
architecture and with It chaotic destruc-
ton OF property before the eyes OF the
audience
Nero, seeking some one to accuse of the
burning of Rome, decides to blame the
Christians and straightway orders a
holiday on which the Christians are
thrown to the lions. Here the Roman
Colosseum is graphically portrayed and
1t appears, at least, that literally thous-
ands Of persons take part in the scene.
The girl Lygia, through the pleading
Of her lover. the influence Of the popu-
lace and the mercy Of the heretofore
merciless Nero. is finally rescued. The
populace finally discovers the duplicity
Of the emperor and stones him out Of the
city. Thus is seen the destruction of
Rome and the uniting of the lovers.

SOME DATA ON
1.-THE LOFTS EATER &"


After eighteen years on the speaking
stage and on the screen. John Barry
more has, for the first time, entered the
field of light dramatic comedy produc-
lions in 1.-THE Lotus Eater" which is
the featured attraction at the Circle this
week.
"The Lotus Eater" which is a pictorial
version of Albert Payson Terhune's fan
tastic novel, is something entirely new in
motion picture production and is the re-
suit Of the determination OF an amateur
film enthusiast to produce a picture which
would prove An innovation.
This amateur film enthusiast, whose
name has been withheld by Associated
First National pictures, who are distrlb-
uting the production, started his career
by purchasing the screen rights for Ter
hune's fantasy.
Following this he secured a contract
with Barrymore and then went after a
director whose record of success would
be a guarantee that "The Lotus Eater"
would be produced not only as perfect
as possible from an artistic viewpoint,
but from standpoint of perfect char
acters for the various important roles
to be portrayed, as well.
Marshall Neilan was selected as the d.
rector and Neilan Immediately placed
Wesley "Freckles" Barry, Colleen Moore,
Anna Q. Nilsson and J. Barney Sherry
In the various supporting roles.

standard, for this most important part Of
