cisions.
Several doubles for principals
| in the picture version OF Charles
E. BIaney's good old-fashioned
melodrama, "Only a Shop Girl, "
have entered the contest being
conducted by The Washington
Times and Washington Herald
to determine Washington's most
popular working girl. While this
is interesting, the resemblance of
several candidates to Estelle Tay-
lor and Mae Busch will not have
any bearing upon their chances to
win a prize headed by a Chevrolet
motor car. Popularity, determined
by votes, alone counts in this con-
test.
All Candidates Guests.
If the candidates bearing this
strong resemblance win, however,
their; close resemblance will un-
.doubtedly be of interest to the audi
ence attending the performance at
Polls when awards are made. A
Girl prior to June will be desig-
mated, the date being dependent up
on the time necessary to total up
the votes.
whether they win or not all can
didates will be the guests of the
management at a performance of
this thrilling old-time play, that is
now endearing itself TO the third
generation. "Only a Shop Girl"
will undoubtedly live through an
other couple of generations, too.
It is type Of drama that viii for
it is devoid of "mush" and sObby
sentiment, but teeming with thrills
and real, genuine, human heart in
terest, such as only the great
Blaney knew how to use in stage
craft.
