Internationalizing Beauty

Il also believe that America would produce

to certain degree, are responsible for this. Fox

every girl tried TO be tall and willowy. When
another celebrated American artist developed the
more recent type Of the bobbed hair, cigarette
smoking girl, ne had big following who bobbed
their hair, took TO smoking and impersonating
the Jolly, but rather wholesome type, Of wha:
might be called The New Freedom Girl"
The same initiative tendency was observable
in the English girl, declares Mr.. Hoppe. She ran

Americans had been received by cosmopolitan

A Beauty of Mystery

self or her family connections. Somehow
though, the information has got around that
Trini is a member Of an old Castilian family who
exacted promise from her that she would not
reveal the family name when she went on ths
stage.
Altogether several circumst stances have con-
spired to make her the particular delight Of Lon
don. British artists therefore very bitter
They make hostile gestures in the direction of
the foreigner"
But Trn has drawn the wrath Of these Lon
don artists not only because of her own popu-
larity, but because she has seemed to create a
demand for foreign beauties that is having its

ayers, they say catering to false taste by
going far aield to pick their headliners. Artists
are not picked according to their qualifications,
they charge but according to their geography
and their names. AS for "the most beautiful
woman alive" she is "cowlike" and "coffee-co-
ored," to hear the English artists tell IT, So runs
the war among the beauties.
The London performers refer to Albert de
Courville and G. B. Cochran pernicious cases
in point Of the London manager who is discrim-
mating unfairly in favor of American and Cont
mental performers. These two men are slowly
sitting the theatrical profession as an English
product by making its existence Of all English
artists extremely precarious, it is declared.
Mr.. de Courville's answer to these charges
has only added bitterness to the attacks on him
The reason he does not employ English beauties,
according to his statement, is because he can't
find them.
"I had the greatest difficulty" he said, "in
getting together a beauty chorus Of thirty. The
difficulty was not experienced because the girls
themselves were lacking. More than FIVE thou
sand applied for places in my revue They SIM
ply were not pretty. | naturally concluded that
British girls must be rather plain"
Mr. Cochran makes a similar reply. He
brought Trini to London because she was the
most beautiful woman he had ever seen and not
because she is Spaniard. He says he would
have been equally enthusiastic il he had found
her in Surrey or Kent. Mr. Cochran can further
prove that he is thoroughly impartial in his
search for beauty by citing the cases of numer-
Gus British girls he has brought up from obscur-
ity. Mr. Cochran, in fact, is known as the Florenz
Ziegfeld of Europe. He is continuously on the
hunt for new beauties, new talents, new artists
In that search ne wsnders through al of the

London and the provinces as well as on the con-
tinent.

Mr.. Hoppe incidentally, is an ardent ad-
mirer Of the American girl, though he thinks she
sometimes is too initiative

declares and that is their too lavish use %

uonality OF girl usually has very little TO do
with her success"
Those who support M. Cochran's position
give the example of Karsavna. Karsavina's
artistry breaks down all barriers of language and
nationality. If England could produce like
dancer, she would be hailed with fully as much
acclaim. They also point to Mile KousnezofT,
another Russian artist who combines genius as
singer and dancer with physical beauty.
Mile. Kousnezoff incidentally had social ad-
vantages that not often granted to struggling
singers. Her father was the well known Rus
sian court painter, Nicholas Kousnezoff. Through
her fathers acquaintance with celebrated men Of
old Russia, she met the great Russian composers
and artists and thus was stimulated to begin an
artistic career for herself

London has also been hosptable to many
French artists Germaine NIFTY, now at the
Pavilion, and Agnes Souret. heralded as the most

In all Of these cases, managers affirm that i
capacity and not nationality which led TO
their engagements. That the managerial judg-
ment commercially sound, at least. was
proved by the popularity Of these foreigners with
London audiences.
E. o. Hoppe, the London artist who has ius.
returned from the United States, makes his con
tribution to the controversy by suggesting that
the why foreign artists succeed where
British artists have failed, may be because they
are international types. The British are rather
proud Of being distinctive in their appearance.
habits Of thought and manners, and something Of
this insularity, Mr.. Hoppe believes may have
crept into their art They should strive, there
fore, to make their appearance and their appeal
take on a universal quality.
America" he says, "has produced what you
might call international beauty in Geraldine
Fsrrar. That is 20 say, she is recognized as a
most beautiful woman in every country in which
she has appeared Now this is unusual, because
beauty very often is a matter Of individual taste.
To have recognition from people of>various tenn
peraments and tastes is To receive high tribute
and stamps one as international. These types,
so far are rare. Beauty in its accepted highest
form today Is as much matter Of spirit and
soul lighting the eyes, it is a question Of
coloring and features.
Miss Fsrrar is travelled She has
sympathy and understanding; she has fine men,

ments. She has been tremendously admired In

INTERC|TY 1872 MATCH
STARTS HERE TONIGHT

Washington and Baltimore GUESTS
will be opponents at Sherman's
Academy tonight in the opening
block of a 1.20e-point 1872 balkline
billiard intercity match. The in
augural encounter will be at 400
points. A similar block will be play
ed at Klein's, in Baltimore, Friday
night Next week 200-point blocks
will be played at Sherman's on Mon
day and at Klein's on Friday.
Starting at 1880, Ralph Rowles will
shoot against DR.. r. NJ. Roscow of
Baltimore. Each is the ranking
player of his team. Their string of
200 points will be followed by play
between G. n. Pouliess and c. H.
Crook, the latter of Baltimore, until
one side has reached the 400 mark.
Allen Thurman of Washington and
H. E. Crook of Baltimore. remaining
members of their teams, will clash
in the first match at Baltimore Fri
day. Scoring will be continuous and
the first team to total 1900 will be
declared winner.
Six matches between local and
Baltimore teams have been held in
the last twelve years and all have re-
suited in victories for the Washing
ton combinations. This year, how
ever, the rival aggregations seem to
be more evenly matched and the
Baltimoreans are conceded an even
chance of carrying off the honors.
