Charming English
Girl In "Stardust''

great human interest story. which ran

Of Hobart Henley with charming Hope
Hampton in the stellar role as the for
lorn little small town girl whose must
cal ambitions are squelched at home,
but whose talent and ambitions find
an outlet in the great city.
Hinged with tragedy and pathos and
fired with romance and ambition
"Stardust' is said to provide Miss
vehicle which she has yet been given,
and she is declared to have taken full
advantage Of the opportunity afforded.
The story was adapted for the
screen by Anthony Paul Kelly.
James Rennie who recently dis
tinguished himself on Broadway in
the principal part in the stage pro-
duction, Spanish Love-" is Miss
Hampton's leading man in 'Stardust.'
Other notable members OF the cast
are Noel Tearle. who will be remem-
bered for his work in over the Hill"
and Viva Ogden, who gave an excel
lent character portrayal in Griffith's
Way Down East"

Edna Rose. Thomas Mcguire, Mrs.
Mary Foy. Charles Mussel, Ash
ley Buck, George Humbert, Gladys
Wilson and Charles Wellesley.

SCREEN VAMPIRE
IS BACK AGAIN
Estelle Taylor Impers0nates
Attractive Siren That Any
Man Would Go To Dogs Over.

! At the Isis Theatre next Monday
| and Tuesday in "A Fool There Was
a new film adapted from the play by
| Porter Emerson Browne. scenario by
Bernard IcConviile and directed by
Emmett J.. Flynn William Fox, the
producer, appears determined to make
the screen vampire once more a house
| hold necessity. Evidently having it
bruited abroad that the movie siren
was gone, his slogan appears to have
been, The vamp Is dead-long live
! the vanp!"
Having apparently made UP his
mind that such sinuous seductive crea-
lures could still come back and put
their eyes in the ring-the producer
seems convinced that another young
woman would be successful as a do
nestle cyclone, provided she had a
strictly American name and seemingly
a home grown technique, the trend
| nowadays being all toward native pro-
ducts. SO he has brought forward
Miss Estelle Taylor as the latest
silent '.Lorelei," and really after one
look at Miss Taylor one can hardly
blame him.
She appears to be very fascinating,
and certainly on the score Of attractive
appearance the new school of vamps
seem more plausible than the old type
the kind that men could reasonably
go to the dogs over, without en-
phasizing the old aphorism that love
is blind.
"a Fool There Was" suggested by
Rudyard Kipling's poem is, Of course,
the celebrated grandmama of all siren
photop1ays-so notable, indeed, that it
brought the word vampire" out of
the cover of the dictionary and into
the light of every day.
One questions whether the vamp in
her newest incarnation will become
such a vital part Of the national life.
She seems to have cooled with time
she no longer brings that pleasurably
guilty glow. The NV version seems to
have been all dressed up in silks and
sattns-to have received a new lick Of
paint. It is more discreet than the
first production. and the baneful
young woman seems to be operating
with one eye open for the censors.
She calls to mind saloon keepers of
the olden days who, having made
money catering to the rough custom
ers, decided to dispense with the
bouncer, and run a cafe" looking af-
ter only genteel tipplers.
The picture sticks as closely as
brother to the stage tale Of the
wealthy man who forsakes his wife
and child to go with a woman Of the /
demimonde encountered on a steamer;
who seems about to return to his fam |
lily when he is lured away again by
the designing mink. and who, having
determined to free himself from her
spell by the rough and ready expedi- |
ent OF killing her, is tipped over the !
banisters by the mink herself,

War on Long Skirt Edict Is
Already Declared by Women
BY MARIAN HALE.

American girls have cultivated distinc.
tive personalities, now they should have
J a distinct style of dress.
This IL the opinion Of Jane Stanford
Hodges, who distinguished herself as q
designer in the New York Textile High
, school, and has just won scholarship al
! Waiicourt school, to continue her work
in costume design.
! The current battle between the long
and short skirt is. she believes, another
evidence that We are freeing ourselves
! from tho saFtoriai yoke of Paris.
| "A few years ago, women would have
accepted the long skirt, just because
! Paris ordered IL. Now they don't-they
are protesting, and many OF them will
continue to wear the short skirt regard >
! less Of what the majority may do.
Short Skirt v. 6. Style.
This is because the short skirt is a
distinctly American style, ADAPTED to
American life. 1t would be ridiculous for
the American business girl to give up
such a comfortable, becoming style, Just
because women in Paris have decided TO
wear longer garments.
THE length Of q skirt should not be
determined by style but by appropria te :
ness.
FOR the home and for evening wear
long skirts have always been most lovely.
They have a grace and a suggestion OF
feminity a short skirt can never give.
when woman has worn a practical
serge dress or suit all day, nothing rests
her more than to put on a long, flowing,
feminine-look garment
Color important, Too.
Color, too, is important. I am glad to
see that women are giving up the steady
black diet and including few colors in
their ia shion menu
Miss Hodges does not give all her
thoughts to costumes She also has
some very decided IDEAS about homes
and backgrounds
Il should like to design womens homes
as we'll as their clothes she went on
II believe New York women are the most
smartly dressed of any in the country,
but California women know how to create
the most beautiful backgrounds for
Their homes are much more
original and beautiful than those in the
East.
California women, too, have developed
a very distinctive style, and have done
wonders with the sports costume.
II believe II designers were ever to /
make an effort to reinstate the corseted |
figure American women would resist it |
even more than the long skirt
Girls who have been trained TO be !
athletic and have never worn stays /
would not begin now.
After all, women are progressing. !
Common sense was never so much the
vogue as it is today. /
Women no longer want to be slaves Of
fashion, They want beautiful styles, and .
comfortable ones, and when they find
them they do not wish to exchange them
for mere passing fads.

SCHOOL
HOLDS CONCERT

The first public listening-in con-
cert to be given at the Loomis Radio
School. 4O1 to All Ninth street, took
place last night under the direc-
tion of Mrs. Loomis. principal of the
school. The occasion was a COM
bined concert and demonstration of
a modern vacuum tube receiving set
employing several stages of ampli-
fication.
I: was really opening night for
the school. which was started for
the purpose OF instructing novices
in the operation of present-day ra
diophone sets. The course. which
may be completed in seven days,
eliminates all deep delving into the
why's and wherefores of the up-to-
date family entertainer. and teaches
only the practical operation of the
set. How to adjust filament and 3
battery currents. how to select the
most effective aerial direction. how
to tune out interference and static,
what knob to turn when KDKA
slips beyond hearing are some of
the nrst-hand hints which the Loom
Is course will include.
A large gathering was present last
evening. largely made up Of per-
sons who know they have a won
derful possession in their radiophone
set. but are skeptical as to their
safe in operating It.

Public to Hear
Radio Concert
Electric Shop win Give Lis
tening-in Program
Tonight.

Listening-in parties are gathering
every night. Even the ''aristocrats"
are falling into line.
This evening at a large gather
ing is expected on the second floor
of the new Duryea Building at
Connections avenue and L street.
In a large reception room provi-
sions have been made with flowers
'and everything" to accommodate
all persons who are anxious to hear
what KDKA and WIZ really mean,
and why there Is so much talk in
town about the radiophone and con-
certs by air.
A new radiophone set complete
with magnavox attachment has
been installed under the direction of
L. L. Hayes, proprietor Of the cleo
trio shop on the first floor. The
music to be heard is not guar
anteed to be grand opera, because
as everywhere in Washington 1t
may be interspersed with market re-
ports and bedtime stories. Never
theless. the set to be used has given
satisfactory service in recent tests.
This has given confidence to the
managers of the first public concert
1T the electric shop.
An interesting program Is sched-
lied for this evening. George r.
Wallace. of Pittsburgh, will tell the
vOrld about "a Good Dream Gone
Wrong" after which Selana Gular-
ski. of the same city, will render
soprano solos. The International
Y. NJ. c. A. will conduct a program
from Springfield. Mass, while the
famous Hexamer Drum Fife and
Bugle Corps of Newark will play a
number of choice band selections
from WIZ. Then Doubleday-Hill
will be in the air from $50 to $40
with a varied selection of choice
music.
The listening-in concerts started
in Anacostia, moved to New York
avenue, Twelfth street, Ninth street
and now have invaded the uptown
Section within a stones throw of
StOneleigh Courts.
