Fashion Notes

INTERPRETATIONS Of the Diree-
= toire period was the keynote Of
the millinery fashion show recently
held in New York. This influence
was seen in hats designed for an
ages of women from the tiny tot to
the real "grown-up," and not only
were these hats marvelously lovely,
but exceedingly interesting IN that
they demonstrated clearly the won
derful possibilities for creative de-
signing to be found in this period of
fashion.

In the various lines, financial, com.

it appears that confidence is not

is not active, collections are regarded
as good, considering all the circum.

Picture, "A Divorce of Conven-
fence will be seen at the State
Theatre next Friday and Saturday,
September 16 and II. 1t is a com
edy based upon the eternal truth
that nothing can be quite so funny

the part of a man afflicted with
that emotion of spring-time, which
causes the victim to act as If his
brains were scrambled and his
everyday judgment locked up in
a safe to which he has lost the
combination.
Jim Blake (Owen Moore) is the
love-lorn swain. He lives in a new

Helen Wakefield (Kathryn Perry
lives in a nearby town. While
Blake is incoming over his absent

Moliana (Nita Naldi) who. I'M

beloved Helen's father. Just when
the lovely Tula has involved Blake

and discover him. 1t takes a lot
OF hilarious fun to extricate all par
ties from their predicament.
Owen Moore's success in similar
