AT CAPITOL

BY all odds, the most magnificent
and colorful play with music thus
far made, is now to be seen at the
Capitol Theatre. Wednesday, where
Song OF the Flame" a First Ma
tional- vitaphone production opens.
In the matters of story acting and
background. Song Of the Flame"
based on a popular operetta, easily
stands out as a notable piece OF
work, utilizing the latest devices in
screen expression. 1t is gratifying
10 note that the handing Of Techni-
color has been SO far perfected, that
the blurring, out-of-focus scenes
which have marred a number Of
previous pictures, are no longer In
evidence. In Song Of the Flame"
the colors register at their true
value and do much to add to the
verisimilitude of the picture.
Four players in the large cast de-
serve particular mention because Of
their fine Characterization and sub
stantial contributions 10 the vocal
sequences in the picture. They are
Bernice Claire. the prima donna.
Alexander Gray. who plays opposite
her. Noah Berry in an intensely
dramatic portrayal Of a leader Of
the evolution depicted in the pro-
duction. and Alice Gentle, a fore
most operate star.
Song Of the Flame" viii be en-
joyed by lovers CT good music as
well as those who are looking for
dramatic screen entertainment.
The Petrograd OF an earlier day.
when 1t still betokened the wealth
and luxury Of the Russian aristoc-
racy, IS revived in the colorful back
grounds constructed for this picture.
Much Of the action centers in and
around the public square where
throngs Of revolutiopists gather only
to be held in check by the Cars
cossacks.

FAVORED
IS COAT COLOR
Sober Shades, Fur, Flares
Distinguish New
Models
BY KERR:

NEW YORK, Aug. 27.-R-Ihe
selection of Madame's winter coat
Is serious business this fall. It's
serious because colcrs are often
sober and because around the coats
color scheme and design the Ameri-
can woman is going to build her
winter wardrobe.
Goats have lost those bOx-like
contours. Most Of the new one nip
in at the waist a bit they flare
somewhat at the bottom, and their
collars and cuffs are richly furred.
They will enable Madame to swish
about with more elegance than she
has had for several years.
Black Is the favorite color,
fashion leaders back from Paris
say. tete-de-negre ozark brown Is
a close second. then come bottle
green and wine red. Black coats
are generally furred in black.
although a harmonious contract.
Brown coats feature beaver and
flat caracul trimmings, while the
fur on dark green and red coats
Is often black.
i've never seen so much black
fur" says Miss Frances Clayne,
one Of New York's leading coutur-
ieres. They're using 1t everywhere,
even on some Of the white evening
wraps. Breitchwantz. Persian lamb,
galyak and silver fox are all fav-
critics.
"One Of the most important
notes on the winter models is the
fact that they button. Women won't
hold their coats around them this
year as they've done for the last
few seasons. They'll button them
and their hands will be free"
Miss Clyne believes the sensible
length for formal daytime coats
Is one which covers the curve Of
the calf. The frocks worn under
meath. she says must be one
quarter to one-half inch shorter.
With no ends or points showing
below the coatlire.

man cannot wish himself per
fec. golf swings. But there is
this vast difference: If he
thinks good swings and sees
himself making good swings, he
most assuredly will grasp the
various parts and details more
understandingly and also he
will see correct details work in
to his own play much more
easily. One rule that often
works veil is that if you see
yourself making good swings.
then learn oW to start a swing
correctly, often the rest of the
action takes care of itself. A
very good founl alton beginning
of your driving this season
therefore might be to think of
yourself, each time, as making
a perfect swing, then take care
to start your swing slowly and
easily. I predict progress for
you if you Just do that.
