 Picture
5" featuring

Folly of the Follies," featuring Constance Talmadge her newest pie ture will be the attraction of the Frianon this week, beginning Mon day. According to opinions of Polly and from those whose conversation was sufficiently audible she has left the impression of being 8 regular girl. She sparkles with mirth. knows how to play a prank as well as to take one, and just breathes ambition and animation.
 Polly's right name, by the way, is Constance Talmadge. The stars lat est picture and a distinct hit sThe situations in which her peculiar abl- ity has made the greatest strides were in evidence; backed up by a substantial story that had definite dramatic value.
 Polly is a country girl who Is yearning to escape the slavery of Uncle Silas, who. despite his wealth, has made her household drudge. The stage offers a natural avenue Of freedom. and Polly makes & preten- tious start with an amateur movie show. but Uncle Silas comes along in time to crab the act. Bob Jones appears on the stage to lend a help ing hand and Polly immediately idol izes him. only to discover that he is already engaged to bs married to Alysia Potter, who is short on green cash but long on blue blood.
 Kenneth Harlan makes an admir- able leading man and George Faw- cett does some discriminating char aeter acting. The rest of the cast is capable.
 Polly of the Follies" was written by John Emerson and Anita Loos especially for Miss Talmadge.

 In the interval before he begins on his first independent picture. he is making a visit to old friends in Ala bama, and to his people. And the Alcazar sought the opportunity to present Mir West as a splendid ex- ponent of clean athletics, and worthy member of the film fraternity,
 When Lionel West first sought a career In motion pictures he offered for roles demanding big, two-fisted athletic man, and he has been con spicuously successful for his convinc- ing portrayals. No one who saw him as the heavy with Mahlon Hamilton in Half a Chance" can doubt the quality of his delineation.
 Now Lionel West is heading his own company, organization of which has just been completed. He will ad- here to the roles in which he made his first success, and he will keep up the strict training that has made him a great athlete and splendid physical specimen.

Van1ping q Van1p, Bubbling Comedy, Is Strand Offering

With the idea firmly fixed in her mind that she is irresistible, she models her life that way What hap pens to straighten her out is delight fully told
 The sets are gorgeous. all designed by Joseph Urban; the costumes, by the same hand, ar ca delight to the eye. The titles are reminiscent of the humor of Mark Twain and the great humorists of the present day.
 In no other picture have there been more beautiful photographic effects than in "Vamping a Vamp." Partic- ularly striking are the scenes in the fairy tale episode, the pageant being the story of The Sleeping Beauty Pages. knights and all the retinue of the court fall asleep with the Princess after she is laid on her sumptuous canopied bed in her gor- 1 geous chamber.
 The cast is of the all-star variety. Marion Davies has the role of the flapper who thinks she is irresistible. Forrest Stanley is happily cast as the leading man. Edith Shayne. Tom l Lewis. Arthur Rankin. Maude Turner l Gordon and Corinne Barker are also in the cast.

 thrilling story of the mining country, filled with real action and intense dramatic moments, is Steel heart" William Duncan, who has won countless followers because of his fighting spirit and realism. ap- pears at his best in this production. Edith Johnson has role that calls for great ability and skill.
 Among the intense dramatic scenes and thrills are fight in the dark, a combat between Duncan and an enraged bear, a fight on cliff in which both contestants are carried over the edge and fall into the rapids below and an explosion in the mountain in which hero and heroine are imperiled.
 An intense love interest is inter woven in the plot, and some of the most picturesque backgrounds have been used to emphasize the action and make each scene pleasing to the eye.

'Vamping vamp," story of ab- sorbing interest and bubbling com edy, hailed as one of the most beau tifully staged productions the screen has ever known, begins special threeday engagement at the Strand tomorrow.
 Few pictures of recent months. and few comedy dramas. of the screen have met with the enthusiastic re- ception accorded the first showings of 'Vamping Vamp." Picturized from the popular cosmopolitan story. the screen version proved a tri- umph.
 "Vamplng a vamp" tells of young New York society girl. the only daughter of wealthy parents whose only occupation in life Is to enjoy herself. And enjoy herself she does. She has a whole retinue of faithful swains who have about the same re- responsibilities as she-nothing to do and a lot of money to do it on. They are youths of undergraduate vintage who follow Ethel about as faithful slaves. When she wants to dance there are at least half a dozen anx- ious to dance with her. And the same with all her other whims.

 On Saturday afternoon Fred came in busting with excitement.
 Get your things on quick. me dar- lint, I've got a home for you. Oh Con, but its a pippin."
 A flood of questions and a few mis. givings were in Comics mind. But wisely she put them off
 Gypsy fairly took the corners of New York in Fred's eagerness to get his wife to their new home. He wouldn't tell her anything till she saw it. But she knew from his excite ment it would be a serious matter if she did not like what he thought so wonderful.
 Anxiousy she scanned the streets they went through Was it to be this noisy, over dressed neighborhood with the frightening mountains of apart ment houses, row after TOW, each one a crowded city, with not one distinc- tive touch to show ones own home windows from hundred thousand others? Her premonition proved true.
 A vast cliff teeming with popula- tion was Cleopatra Court. Before its set-in entrance stood four or five machines. gay with color and metal trimmings
 The railway was a blare of marble and gold, liveried doormen, telephone operators, elevator runners; stone jars of palms, ornate electroliers, tap estried seats and hangings.
 "Fred-not--not here!"
 And why not here?" laughed Fred. "Nothings too good for my girl"
 How could she find words to tell him this was not good enough? A vision of a sweet white cottage and a garden shot through her mind, but Connie held her peace.
 They were whisked to the ninth floor and the superintendent flung open the door of three-room suite, small but exceedingly modern, down to the last self lf-refrigerating icebox and the nook outside the kitchenet window to hold the garbage pail
 Look at that view. Con, old dar- ling! You can see Broadway from this angle. And you sure can hear it. Listen to those horns-the voice of a big city, singing, eh, what, dear? And look at ths-and this"
 He snapped on electric lights, pulled open closets. gazed in rapture at the shower in the bathroom, the glass towel-racks, the "built-in" soap dishes. the excess of mirrors.
 Connie regarded it all with stiffly set smile. Before the well-dressed superintendent, in the face of Fred's enthusiasm, she had not courage to express herself.
 But at mention of the rent, she ut- tered an involuntary cry: "Why. Fred-it's more than a To- room house at hon1e,"
 Maybe. but" Fred caught the slirht twitch of the superintendent lbs; he hated being known for a /, nick" with his country bride. He eA Connie ast1N .-. .

How Lillian Planned to Aid Madge
 With Mother Graham.

My little lads proposal to go to hi grandmother and tell her he wa sorry for his rudeness did not strlk, q particularly responsive chord in m, still resentful consciousness.
 If l had followed my primitive i'm pulse l should have whispered to hin the truth that 1t had been his grand mother, not he, who had made mo cry, But I put my rebellion down firmly, and eonsoed myself with the reflection that Juniors equalization was particularly lucky incident in view of the day before me.
 For I knew that Lillian had count ed upon Mother Graham taking both Junior and Marion into her room and keeping them there while the rest of us staged the reception she had planned for the man named Smith. IL was reception which held distinct element of danger, and if was pre- eminently necessary that the children should be kept out of the way.
 "What's the Tronble?"
 But with oMther Graham in the temper with which she had left my room, our plans were likely to be upset. That she was capable of leav- ing the house for visit to one of her daughters, knew, and would not have been surprised to learn that even now she was packing her trunk. a diversion in which she frequently indulges.
 "Dooner go Danzie now
 My small sons voice gave me an inspiration. l picked up and began to take off his absurd little night suit.
 ''Well get dressed first" told him. and then we'll find Marion. She will take you down to Grandmother. !"
 l had thrown Marions name in as stop-gap, although I knew Mother Graham was extremely fond of Lil- lian's winsome daughter But I knew that 1t would take more than Mar icn's charms and Juniors adorable ness to placate his grandmother. I meant to get hold of Lillian as soon as I could, for if any one could de- wise the means of making my mother inlay tractable 1t was she.
 Partly dressing Junior, I deposited him in his crib, telling hm to put on his stockings, most absorbing occu- patton in which he delights. Then, throwing my bathrobe around me, l opened the door softly, slipped down the corridor to Lillians room, and knocked lightly. She opened the door immediately, and I saw with re- lief that both she and Marion were almost dressed.
 Praised be that your boat is near ly manned" I said, holding the door half ajar, so that I could watch my

Peasant Styles Now in Girls Sizes
DAILY FASHION SERVICE.

1, The peasant fashions which have been popular for grown-ups are being shown now in children's frocks. Peasant sleeves and low-waisted bloused frocks are most noticeable of the innovations and distinguish a great many of the new dresses for little girls. The sleeves are quite full and are gathered in on a cuff at the wrist.
 Quaint smocked designs in peasant colorings are shown on children's 8 dresses, too, and peasant embroidery is popular. Another trimming is red kid cut into conventional flowers and appliqued.
 Wool crepe, wool jersey. light serge and flannel are the materials shown in the first fall dresses. Many of the models combine two colors of the same material.
