AT THE STRAND What Is comedy?
Webster's definition reads:-

Webster's definition reads:-
 "A joyful festivity with music and dancing. A phase of drama depict ing scenes of an amusing and cheer ful nature" .
 A shorter manner of defining comedy would be to see The Cuckoos,' the all-talking. singing, musical show now at the Strand theater.
 Bert Wheeler and Robert Wooh sey, inimltable clowns of Rio Rita fame. are principal reasons why The Cuckoos" is joyful festivity.
 June Clyde and Hugh Trevor with 100-trained singers and dancers, are the featured entertainers along the musical and dancing line.
 Stage teehnicians have always claimed that comedy was an elusive factor and particularly hard to bring out on the screen. Special 'gag men are usually employed to insure the success of the embryo comedy.
 For the added attraction for today and tomorrow the Strand theater will be the first to show the com pleting pictures of the first nonstop westward flight from Europe to the United States taken from start to finish. See them leaving Paris and landing in New York. Also five acts of vaudeville presented on the same bill.

AT THE EMBASSY

Here's a laugh, Jack Oakie in The Sap From Syracuse" at the Embassy theater, starting Saturday for 4 days.
 Oakie is the cheerful giver" of fun whose first appearance in Close Harmony was an instantaneous signal of joy to come. In The Sap from Syracuse he has, by far. his best role to date. as the naive country boy who thinks the world is his oyster" Off to see Europe, he meets a lovely charmer in dis tress, in the person of Ginger Rog- CTS, the cuddlesome cutie of Young Man of Manhattan" Mistaken for prominent engineer, travelling in cognito, Oakie cannot convince Gin ger of his real identity. He is feted and regale by everyone on the ship.
 The Sap From Syracuse" is adapted from the stage comedy of the same name that kept New York theater-goers in spasms of mirth during the run of the play last sea- son Many supporting players in the screen version of the fun-hit were members of the original New York stage cast And A. Edward Suther- land, who piloted Oakie in The So- cial Lion,' directed this one too.

Bullard Company Omits
 Its Quarterly Dividend

New York, Sept 5 PLDirectors of the Bullard company. machine tool manufacturers of Bridgeport, Conn. have omitted the quarterly dividend of 40 cents due on the con- mon stock at this time.
 E. P. Bullard; president, said the directors were influenced blythe fact that the company has recently re- ceived orders for new business in substantial amounts which. in their opinion, made it advisable to main tain a strong cash position without borrowing for operations on this ac- count"
 He added that the company nlso had been asked to quote on consid- erable business. which, If booked, should permit resumption of div1- dends at an early date, as the com pany has no funded debt or bank indebtedness and has a large earned surplus"

What's in Fashion?
Well '.Put-7Ogether" Costumes
-Directed bu AMOS PARRISH

NEW YORK, Nov. Ats
not often you can get an ac-
curate fashion story from Just
one costume. We've found we
must usually count and check
up on hundreds to show even
one fashion idea.
But here's one we saw the
other day that got over an Idea
on how women are building Np
smart-looking costumes. Ana
the idea is so easy to follow
Canybody can do it, that we've
had the costume sketched for
you. And we're going to de-
scribe it and then dissect 1t to
see why 1t was so smart.
Costume Details
The coat was Of black tweed
with a white fleck in it. It
had a shawl collar Of black

where we were.
The dress was plain black

there was nothing unusual in
her color Scheme-simple black

were the smart sort Of clothes

country any day.
Carefully Ensembled
She stood cut because her
costume was so carefully en-

to go togeUher-in texture,
color and design.
She'd started off with a SENT.

kept her whole outfit in the

dress was the same degree Of

Phrase "Stone Age" Not
Literal in Application

The Stone age Is q term commonly
used to denote the earliest recognized
stage In the development OF human
culture as defined by the materials
used by man for weapons, utensils,
etc. The phrase Is somewhat mislead-
Ing, since II Is probable that primitive
man made use OF wood and other
perishable materials to a far greater
extent than Of stone, and consequently
the stage Is defined by the prevailing
material Of the relics, not by that OF
actual implements In common use. The
term "Stone age" represents In no
sense chronological division OF hui
man progress, but is loose equivalent
for stage Of cultural development
varying widely In duration In different
parts Of the world. There are, e. E.,
tribes still In the Stone age, while, on
the other hand, some groups had out
grown 1t before the dawn Of history.
1t is also worth noting that some
tribes commonly cassed as belonging
to the Stone age produced objects OF
a superior artistic and industrial merit
to those who had advanced to the use
OF metals. The evidence for the ex.
istence of such an age In most parts
of the world Is conclusive, but 1t Ia
from the prevalence aud character OF
the relics In certain parts OF Europe
rather than In America that the idea
and term have come into general use.

Take American Ideas
and "Coin" to France

1t Is curious that both In the south
east and southwest Of France there
have long been what the French neigh
bors call American villa towns. But
those who live In them are not our
Americans at all.
One of these towns-Harcelonnette,
on the motor road from Nice to the
French Alps and Lake Geneva-has
been given all the privileges OF a
tourist station by government decree.
1t has some 5000 inhabitants, with
streets laid out regularly and the out
skirts built up In what are known as
American houses-sqnare and white
and with green blinds.
Those who live In them are purely
French-emigrants Of a full century
ago, or their children, who have come
back from Mexico and our Mexican
frontier after making a fortune. It Ii
said that the least successful returned
with $4,000, and some with $1O,OOO
and even more. They built up their
little neighborhoods to resemble what
they had for themselves In the New
world. One-from Texas-built a veri-
table chateau. but society must have
been too strong for him In France,
and he took his family back to free
America. Perhaps his grandchildren
are among our own Americans who
now own ! SOO villas on the Riviera.
