PEGGY AT
STRAND SOON
IN PERSON

Baby Peggy, sweetest Of little
film stars, is soon to make her
first personal appearance upon
one of our local stages.
Baby Peggy has never visited
Washington before and her APP
pearance here will be made doubly
interesting as she will be seen
upon the screen also in what is
reputed to be one of the best
pictures of her career.
A little less than three years
ago Baby Peggy entered the
movies as an extra player. Pos
sessing all the required attributes
of a screen player, the very first
week saw her signed with a pro-
ducing company at $50 a week.
The second week her salary was
doubled and then trebled. From
then on it rose steadily, until re-
Gently the news was flashed that
her annual income with Trio Pro-
auctions who present her current
attractions would hover in the
vicinity of a 'seven.figure sal
ary." And with 1t all the charm
ing baby, who is only a little
more than five years old, is still
the same unspoiled child she was
when she broke" into the films.
During her stay here Baby
Peggy" Montgomery, for that is
her real name, will be- accom-
panied by her father, Jack T.
Montgomery.

HEAVY RESPONSE
GREETS PLEA
FOR NAME

So heavy has been the flood Of
mail from competitors in the con-
test launched by Meyer Davis to
secure a name for his dance re-
sort in the new Cosmopolitan
building that it has been neces-
sary to take over: extra office
room in the Davis offices in, the
LIE Paradis building in order to
handle the material. 1t is esti-
mated that 5000 responses have
been received with several hun
dred additional replies arriving on
every mail.
The contest will close on jan
uary 26, and announcement Of
the winner will be made as soon
as possible.
The new resort will occupy the
same floor space as the Earle
Theater and according to archi-
tects, will afford the most ball
room space in Washington, either
public or private, when COM
pleted. Decoration will be Of
strictly Spanish inspiration, the
completed effect resembling one
of the patios so much used in
South American 4RAd Pacific coast
architecture. A liberal use Of
Towering plants. and shrubs will
contribute to the effect Of out
doors.
