Constance Talmadge Has Many Parts
i'll "Polly of the Follies''

Constance Talmadge has as many
roles as a female impersonator in her
latest First National attraction, "Polly
of the Follies,' which is coming to the
Palace theatre tomorrow and Monday.
In the fast moving story the action
carries the star from one phase of
life to another with such rapidity
that her different costumes almost re-
scmble a composite of the world s lat
est fashion models, with one exception
The exception is in the opening
scenes which show Miss Talmadge as
a gingham gowned country girl. From
that inauspicious opening she rapidly
becomes q star of amateur theatricals
wearing the gowns of Broadway's lat
est creations with calm nOnchalance.
From the Broadway accoutremcnts she
drifts to a lurid colored creation of
silks and satins that mark society s
standard in the fashionable benefit
given for charity.
''POlly of the Follies" was prepared
for production with Constance Tai
ma1ge us the star by John Emerson
and Anita Loos and is said to be one
of the liveliost comedies that the pop
ular screen artist has ever had. The
cast included Kenneth Harlan, who has
been Miss Talmadge's leading man in
several of her recent pictures and

''Between you and me and the sun. -
This is the appropriate slogan for the

Jack Patty Of Ell Centre. These gentle.
men were awarded the agency for this
popular accessory only three weeks and
since that time have sold an unprc-

This anti-sun glare device is q small
affair contained in a brass cylinder
and attached to one side of the wind
shield. At the convenience of the
driver the curtain can be pulled across
the shield, and Old Sol is at the mercy
of the shade.

Admission Of Women
Favored to Rabbinate

CINCINNATI, Oct. 13.-Rabb Da-

Jewish synagogues here. places him
self ON record as favoring the ad-
mission of women to the rabbinate,
an almost revolutionary step. in an
editorial in recent issue of the
American Israelite. In his article he
traces the history OF the religious
emancipation OF women from the
days when they were segregated In
the synagogues in special balconies
as "religiously inferior" to the pres
emit, when they are firmly estab-
lished in the congregations OF the
reformed churches.
sEvery form OF change which
granted woman more religious free

Is upon this ground that the ad
mission OF women to the rabbinate
will be fought Such arguments are
futile in view OF the advance of wo
man in every sphere.
"Who knows but that some woman
may arise who gifted with the pro
phetic fire OF Deborah. may arouse
the hosts OF Israel ont OF their In
difference and lead them on to con
auer new spiritual heights? The
dead hand OF the past should not be
permitted to close the door Of op
