History of Poplin

Poplin came from Avignon, and the
reason for its name is not Immediately
apparent until we remember that, until
1871, Avignon was papal town, and
therefore the silk manufactured there
was called by the Italians papalino.
and by the French papelin, so that
when it was introduced into England
In 1893 by the Huguenot refugees 1t
automatically became poplin.
Today, most poplins are of worsted
and flax or wool and cotton, and those
of Irish manufacture are deservedly
popular. Readers of Jane Austin will
recall the delightful confession in
Emma: II have some notion of put
ting such a trimming as this to my
white and silver poplin.

Victor Hugo's Novel
 "Les Miserables", Lyceum

Starting today, for four days, the production the world is waiting to see, Victor Hugo's immortal novel, "Les Miserables." Tt is the greatest work of epic and dramatic fiction which has ever been created or conceived by the human brain,' says the Encyclopedia Britannica of would be conservative to use the same language in describing the colossal motion picture production Of Les Miserables, now playing at the Lyceum theater, for the Universal Film de France triumph is, without doubt, a surpassing cinema achievement.
 Two years were spent in making this stupendous motion picture at a cost that mounted to millions of francs. Many of the scenes were taken on the exact locations indi- Cated by the author in his book. The principal players were selected from the French stage and the most renowned actors in the land chosen to portray the characters created by Hugo. Gabriel Gabrio, film idol of France, accomplishes a remarkable portrayal in the role of Jean Naljean, considered by many to be the most lovable character in fiction. Javert, the terrible; Father Myriel, the saintly; lovely Cossette and her poet lover-all these are brought to life with the force of truth. The stirring scenes of the historic barricades make up great drama within a drama. All these flashes from a truly epic drama will live long in memory.
