Sally, Irene and Mary :

~ CALLY, IRENE AND MARY" the
musical comedy which reveals
the romance of three modern Cinder-
elias, will come to Polls Theater the
week of September 23, under the di-
rection Of the Shuberts, according to
a late announcement
This is claimed to be one of the big
gest productions on tour, and boasts
"a personality cast" and a prize
winning beauty chorus" with two
acts and nine scenes, the most color
full of which is an elaborate rose
ballet, danced by sixteen youthful
Pavlowas.
Another feature is a wedding finale,
presenting the latest styles in bridal
gowns.
Once again the popular theme of
rags to riches" scores a bullseye,
for the story Of Sally, Irene and
Mary" concerns a trio of tenement
girls who rise above the poverty of
the East Side and become famous stage
stars. The book is by Eddie Dowling
and Cyrus Wood, lyrics by Raymond
klages and music by ]. Fred Coots.

Back Again to the Fold
SToDDARD TAYLOR, for man

7 STODDARD TAYLOR, for many
years the popular manager of
the Belasco Theater. and who later
made the Garrick a thing of beauty
and a joy forever as "Washington's
handsome and intimate little play
house" has returned to the scene of
his former activities after a summer
vacation on the sands of Cape Cod,
in Massachusetts. Mr.. Taylor has no
confidential information of the thea
ter to unfold. nor does he know-so
he says-when the Garrick will re-
open for a regular run, nor what its
attractions are likely to be. He
Is. OF course, very positive that
MessrS Lee and j. J. Schubert will
not overlook the Washington possi-
bilitieS. and that their line of enter
tainment, when announced, will be
pleasing to Washington playgoers.
Mr.. Taylors record in Washington
insures confidence in his hopes if not
has predictions.

BY HALLETT ABEND.

Los ANGELES, August 30.--Derelys
perdue and Grace Darmond are
shown in violent contrast in Daytime
Wives" seven-reel picture which l
previewed in the Powers r.. c. studios.
This film play will arouse endless
differences of opinion among women.
The useless parasitic wives will hate
it. Working women will be enthusi-
astic about it. 1t poses the question
as TO which woman means most in
mans life-a selfish, shallow wife at
home. who spends money and knows
nothing of her husbands business
interests, or the trim, neat intelligent
office woman, who is his helper day
atter day in his office. The picture,
directed by Emile Chautard, is we'll
cast and splendidly acted.
Mae Murray, in .'The French DoII.''
Mae Murray's Metro release, THE
French Doll" was previewed here at
the Writer'S Club in Hollywood.
Membership in this club is confined
almost exclusively to noveliSts. short
story writers and continuity and title
writer's associated with the film in
dustry. The regular Writers Club
preview is said to draw the most
hard- boiled audience to be found in
the country.
The fact that THE French DolI'
earned spontaneous applause at many
points during the running of the film
Is evidence enough of its entertain
mcnt value and merit as feature
production.
From Il box office angle, this film.
directed by Robert u. Leonard, will
be more IA success than from an artis-
n" angle. In the Marie Antoinette
sequence Miss Murray is more than
successful, but in the modern Sc
pucnce, when she is the French
equivalent of the modern flapper, she
Is so Jerky that she does not register
upon the screen. In scene after scene
this nervous jerkiness is so pro-
nounced that her features are not
recognizable. This fault is SO seri-
Gus that the probable alibi that her
Interpretation is based upon the jerky
motions of Il mechanical doll cannot
be accepted as valid.
Another good Forthcoming release is
the film version of Zane Grey'S ITO
the Last Man" That / enjoyed this
most western of all western photo
care for Zane Grey's books. The pho
toplay lives up to its name-the con-
tending factions are all killed off eX-
ccpt the hero, who is literally the
last. And even he is badly wounded.

quite as good as a half-breed Indian
hero as he was in."The Christian"
Herbert Rawlinson has completed
Upside Down" for late september re-
lease and though just five-reel pro-
gram picture it is so Well done that it
should add greatly to his popularity.
The story is based upon the SUPPOSE
ton that a rich old man leaves every
man, woman and child in his native
town $4,000 in his will. Herb. the
icphew, gets only 81. Then the town
goes on a spending spree. Business
ceases while everybody JOY rides.
The nephew, heretofore Il spendthrift,
sees his big chance, becomes a busi-
ness man and soon owns the town.
Also he wins the girl he wants after
he had been jilted by the fortune
hunter from the city.

Henry Ford announced IN De-
troit Monday that the Ford interests
had purchased the Johannson Gauge
company, with home offices In

This is one Of the most import
ant purchases that Henry Ford has
made in recent years, 1t is said.
The Johannson company manutac-
lures precision instruments thai
measure down to one-millionth OF an
inch and its gauges are accepted as
being the finest made.
""This is an important step for the
Ford company in that 1t means that
refnements not now existing in the
Ford car. will quickly come to pass.
Friction is error Ford de-
clared. The elimination of friction
means longer life for the car-for
any automobile-and easier riding
for the passengers. Parts will be
made to fit perfectly and because OF
the absence of friction there will be
a positive minimum of wear and
tear
"Mr. Ford exhibited a part that
had been on an experimental test
for 500 continuous hours; so far as
the eye could discern 1t was in as
perfect condition as when it started.
