The Indianapolis times. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1922-1965, 1926-05-01

The play deals in graphic and
realistic terms of the life of our
soldiers while behind the lines and
in the trenches during the World
War. It's stunning climaxes and
tremendous laughs are built purely
upon realism. There is no forced
or unnatural note, not one line is
out of character or out of key.
Two hard.drinking, hard-fighting
Marines, soldering these many
years and running afoul Of each
other periodically, come together
again somewhere in France, with
Chateau.Thierry suspected.
Each of them had broken the
other from his command in former
campaigns. Now one is a captain
and the other the top sergeant sent
to join the outfit. The captain goes
on leave and the sergeant steals his
mademolselle. Then both go up to
the lines and forget the feud in
the dirt Of filthy cellars and the
smash of the daily attacks.
Back on leave, they get gloriously
lit on cognac, which makes them
ugly, and fight again for the pos.
session Of the French girl, who could
easily love either If t'other dear
brute we're away.
And as the play ends neither has
her, for they have been moved back
into the trenches again, with all
leaves OF absence revoked. .
What a lot Of - fools 1t takes
to make n war;" muses. the top
sergeant, running after the ugly
captain he has tried to shoot a min
ute before.
Mr.. Albert West will be seen in
the Louis Wolheim part Of Captain
llagg.
Miss Edythe Elliott and Milton
Byron will be in the cast, with many
others.

In the pattern. This handsome gown
has nan noteworthy style points, and
they are introduced with great clever
ness. Among them are the uneven
hemline of the tunic, the effective
sleeve treatment and the rich fur
banding. Few accessories are worn
with such gowns.
Much less pretentious, but ingenious
and original in it's use Of popular new
style points, is the satin gown at the
right. This is one of those very wear
able types, with moderate flare In the
skirt and long sleeves draped at the
wrist, where they are gathered into a
tight band. Small metallic cabochons
are set about these wristbands. Ties
Of the satin fall from the shoulder and

xryHEN 1t m to afternoon gowns,

vX7HEN 1t comes to afternoon gowns,
w srnartly dressed wonderland de-
signers who cater to them-put forth
their very best efforts. We may get
by and make a pleasing impression
upon our fellOwmen with simple, day
time frocks, but afternoon gowns are
quite another matter. They must pass
before the critical eyes Of our sister
women An unbecoming outfit has
been known to help defeat a good can
didate for a club Office and it takes
positive genius to overcome the handi-
cap of poor taste in dress. Therefore
the afternoon gown Is q matter for
serious thought.
There are several types of afternoon
gowns, all more or less formal, but
ranging from u~npretentious to lux
urious-depending upon the fabrics
used. With the advent of velvet in
dress modes and the vogue for me-
tallic ma%terials-in company with fur
trimmings-some afternoon frocks be-
come quite splendid. Such a dress ap-
