Style Revue and
MatineeDansant
Grand Success
EverywOman Progressive Coun-
Gil Stages Second Annual
Holiday Event

The second Annual Style Revue
and matinee Dansant was staged by
the Everywoman Progressive Council,
New Years afternoon at Union Hall.
The hall was filled with a typical
holiday crowd, which heartily ap-
plauded the pretty models as they
promenaded in the latest fashions of
sport, afternoon and evening. wear
to the strains of syncopated music
furnished by Stevens Harmony
Kings with Sydney Williams at the
piano.
The models were little Miss Edith
Webb, the Misses Irene McGavock,
Rachel James. Alice Joyce, Henrietta
Bonaparte. Evelyn Kelly, Matte and
Babe Murray, Christine Cox and Mrs.
Aaron McGavock.
A novel feature was introduced
when little Miss Laure Hall, attired
in paper dress with hat to match,
covered with Bulletin-Appeal stream
ers, stories and advertisements,
promenaded as Miss Bulletin-Appeal,
with basket containing subscrip-
tion blanks which she distributed to
the audience. A subscription cam
paign has been inaugurated by the
Bulletin-Appeal, hoping to place a
copy in each home of our group.
Several subscriptions were received
at the hall.
The publisher, Mr.. owen Howell,
was introduced by Attorney Francis
and enthusiastically received by the
audience. Mr.. Howell stated that he
has always borne the financial deficit,
but he hopes that the public will re-
spond in the future and help put the
medium on a financial basis. His
parting remarks were that each sub
scriber should read the paper, then
tear 1t up instead Of letting your
neighbor and others borrow 1t. II
they want the news. let them sub
scribe or buy the paper. This re-
mark ELECTED great applause.
After the revue dancing lasted un-
til seven O'Clock: this fair was one of
the stellar events Of the New Year
and an overwhelming success.

Americans Love Art.

"NowHERE," says Duci de Kere-
kjarto, youthful Hungarian
violinist, have l found people more
responsive to music than in America.
Americans have, contrary to the alb
surd stories that float around Eu-
rope, strong feeling for music and,
in fact, for art in every medium.
Before l came to this country /
was under the impression that Amer
leans were more or less barbarians.
First of all, / had a picture in my
mind of a wild, rough country, with
Indians and cowboys running around.
You see how benighted Europe used
to be? Then continental artists
would tell wierd tales of the Dol
lar Country" where art was unap-
preciated and only money mattered.
So it was with fear and trembling
that I came over about Is months
ago for a concert tour.
You can imagine my surprise to
find New York just like London and
Paris, only better, and to see that
people f1ocked to concert and opera
and demanded the best in art. When I
entered Keith Vaudeville, 1 was even
more surprised, for I discovered that
I could give exactly the same pro-
gram on the vaudeville stage that !
had given on the concert platform
Since I began my Keith tour l
haven't played one single piece of
light or popular music. My program
is made up entirely Of concert num-
bers and l find that the people not
only enjoy but understand them in a
thoroughly musicianlike way. Amer
leans are true lovers of art and /
am proud to be able to play for such
discriminating audiences"

Nor has the slightest hint been
given the public by Douglas Fair
banks as to the manner in which
Douglas appeared to climb a rope
right up into the sky in THE Thief
of Bagdad," nor by what means he
was enabled to fly over the house
tops on the magic carpet or to ride
the winged horse to the court Of the
moon and bring back the magic chest
of Nazir.
In fact. a whole mine Of fascinat-
ing trickery has been kept completely
in the dark about The Thief of Bag
dad" Certainly no picture has ever
revealed so many tricks of lighting,
photography and stage mechanics as
this amazing story of ancient Bag
dad, which was built by Mr.. Fair
banks on the theory that whatever
the mind of man can imagine, that
thing already exists.

Couture Key to Character.

"A WONAN's mode of dressing her
hair represents the clue to her
inner being" says Irene Rich, the
screen star, and for the benefit of
her friends she has gotten up scale
of six types of coiffure on which she
bases her characterizations for the
silver sheet.
Frizzed, elaborate massing of arti-
fetal curls represents shop girls or
habitues of dance halls.
Different bob" styles portray any
thing from a high-brow to a gum
chewing fiapper.
The Mona Lisa hairdress Is the
keynote to the woman who started
to gain career, but found a soul
mate.
Disheveled hair stamps a woman
as the tired mother or the sour
mouthed shrew.
The woman careful of her appear
ance usually affects the marcel wave.

a woman's face-that speaks of
charming purity, sweet hopes and

Columbia" The Thief of
Ba6dad."

Douglas Fairbanks, In THE Thief
of Bagdad," the wonderful, gorgeous
Arabian Nights fantasy, that en-
chanted New York for a year at So
prices, which, for the daring, magni-
tude and opulence of its conception
and treatment ranks as Mr.. Fairbanks
greatest screen achievement, will be
given its initial presentation in
Washington at Loew's Columbia
Theater, beginning this afternoon,
and at the regular scale of Loew's s
Columbia prices.
"The Thief of Bagdad" is literally
page torn from THE Arabian
Nights Tales" as far as atmosphere,
color and fantastic imagery are con-
cerned, though the story itself Is an
absolutely new narrative. Directed by
Raoul Walsh and supervised by Mr..
Fairbanks himself, with the aid OF
Edward Knobloch, the noted British
playwright, The Thief of Bagdad"
brings to the silversheet a series of
episodes that seem impossible of ac-
compIishment through any means
but magic. With the beautiful Ju-
lame Johnston as his leading woman.
Mr.. Fairbanks has literally scaled the
heights of ina ginative production.
The story reveals how the Thief
gaining entrance to the princess
apartments by means of a magic rope,
which he has stolen, enlists the in
terest and concern of the princess at
a time when she is beset by offers of
marriage from three visiting poten-
tates In order to effect a choice, she
sends them all on a seven-moon jour-
ney, agreeing to wed the one who re-
turns with the rarest treasure.
The cast includes Snitz Edwards,
Anna May Wong, Charles Belcherr
Brandon Hurst and many others.
Owing to the unusual length of
the production other features usual
on the Columbia program will be
omitted, but the. Columbia Orchestra
will play a musical score.

Magic IN the Movies.

MOTION picture fans have become
SO accustomed to hearing the in
nermost secrets Of the movies brought
out and discussed in the newspapers
that 1t must be something of a shock
to. suddenly discover that, all of a
sudden, the men who make photo
plays sro not telling their secrets
any longer.
OF course, one may hear from time
TO time Of this or that trick employ
ed to make a blue-eyed actor photo
graph better, or how a director man
a ged to make a kitten look sleepy
but it is true, none the less, that the
real magic of the screen is no longer
being told to the public.
Several reasons are advanced for
this sudden change in policy. Up to
a little while ago the press agent
was privileged character in any
studio, and mechanical tricks form
ed the subject of many story that
found wide currency afterward
Nowadays, however, the movies are
going in for what is clearly the next
thing to magic, and this magic is
too high-priced a commodity TO ex-
plain to the public-and. inferential-
ly, to competitors. Therefore the
movie magician has come to the point
where he specifically stipulates no
publicity as a condition to the use
of his magic

Has But Two "Subtitles." "

CRITICS and motion picture sxecu-
utives await the day when 1t will
be possible to make pictures without
subtitles.
James Cruze has come very near
the ideal in THE Goose Hangs High"
Barring a brief foreword, the picture
contains only two subtitles-that is,
titles necessary to explain the action
of the story. There are. of course,
many spoken titles in the course of
the production.
According to Walter Woods, seen
artist and writer of titles, "the action
was SO graphic, and every phase of
the story so clearly told In the film,
that practically no explanatory sub
titles were needed" ...
"The Goose Hangs High" is a story
of Christmas time, In its original
