BrOadlDay Appear in
NelD Jackson C0n,edy

"Zizi," the Sam H Harris produc-
ton which comes to the National
Theater this week, is the means of
bringing to Washington three popu-
lar Broadway artists, Irene Fenwick.
Louis Bennison and Helen Lowell.
These three players are well
wick came here first in her first big
success. The Family Cupboard"
She has followed in The Song Of
Songs" The Correspondent" ''Mary's
Ankle" and Lord and Lady Algy."
In ''Zizi" she has the title role, that
of a chorus girl.
Helen Lowell is one Of the fore
most character actors Of the day.
Her career has embraced practically
every known form of theatrical ex-
preston. She began before she was
out of her teens, playing the role
of mother in Little Lord Fauntle-
roy" with Wallace Eddinger as her
child. Later she appeared in melo-
drama, musical comedy and in
farces. Her most popular charac-
terization was that of Miss Hazy in
Mrs. Wigs of the Cabbage Patch"
Recently she appeared in 'Cappy
Ricks' and in "Blue Bonnet"
Louis Bennison is equally popular
on the stage and on the screen. In
his pictures he is featured as q
westerner-a fearless rider and a
sure shot. Having been reared in
the West and having spent much Of
his life on a ranch, he is well fitted
for such roles In his experience on
the legitimate stage he has had
leading roles In ''The Heart Of Mary
land" Damaged Goods" The Un-
chastened Woman" and recently in
Johnny, Get Your Gun"
Others appearing in the cast are:
Carlotta Monterey, Kenneth Hill,
Morgan wallace and George Gra-
ham.

also Of moire and velvet are one Of
the many varities Of this most un-

Many a country and period
has influenced the creative millin-
ers and the result Is a wide
variety Of shapes. Some hint
of the Napoleonic era. some are
as picturesque as a Gainsborough
portrait, some are typical Of the
old family tintype. others sound
q martial note and still others
are reminiscent Of Spain.
Very seldom is the "happy
medium" reached for when hats
are large they are very large
and when small they are very
small. Large hats are even more
numerous than during the sum-
mer and the trimmings of the
new millinery follow a downward
course. Sometimes a sweeping
plume is the only trimming to
disturb the simplicity.
Wings and feather fancies
promise to be among the fore
most trimmings and the long;
.drooping ostrich plume is un-
doubtedly the leader for formal
wear. The longer the plume the
smarter the hat this season. and
they wend their way around the
crown and trail down over the
brim sometimes as far as the
-waist-line. This style however
is only suited to the youthful.
slender type.
Prohibition has restricted the
grape considerably. and 1t can only
face the public nowadays as an or
