Surrounded by Government officials,

Roosevelt yesterday symbolized the Ma
tion's tribute to the dead who fell In

bowed at the Tomb of the Unknown
Soldier in Arlington National Cemetery.
Silence prevailed for a minute as the
notes of a bugle sounded the armistice
hour of IL, which ended the war Is
years ago.

party had departed for the White House,
the official spokesmen at the ArmiStice
day service, Secretary of War George

pealed to American citizens to do their
part in making of new America, under
new conditions of national welfare and

did not end wars and failed to make
the world safe for democracy" Secre-
tary Dern declared the anniversary
of the armistice finds this country en-
gagged in a new struggle on the battle
fields of economies, with a real desire
on the part of the overwhelming ma

chicken that he had just received as
an appropriate Easter offering.
After the chicken had been discussed
at length, Mr.. Graham said he would
like to introduce Mr.. Barrett to Col.
Ingersoll. A few minutes later the two
men were shaking hands. The con-
versation, which began in a friendly
manner, soon drifted onto the subject
of religion. Col Ingersoll had his own
very decided ideas on the subject Of
religion, and Mr. Barrett had equally
decided although entirely different
opinions. The argument ended-aS
such arguments invariably do-with-

but leaving each strengthened in his
own belief.
Unlike most religious discussions, the
matter did not end with the argument,
and when that evening the two Jour-

actors room they found him full of a
new subject. On that occasion quail
and wine had no attraction for Mr..
Barrett. While his guests ate he talked.

But no other newcomer has enjoyed
such a dramatic success as has this
Hartford. Conn, girl with the geo.
metric face, so far removed from con-

to the artists eye or to any lover OF
the unusual.
When Katherine Hepburn first walked
into the Hollywood studios the men
who had been notified of her arrival
Resped and wondered what the New
York Office was about. Could you see
a photograph of the Hepburn then and
a picture of the Hepburn now, you
wouldn't have any dificulty realizing just
what is meant by that. Hepburn wore
her hair combed back straight and in a
washerwoman's knot at the back OF her
head She liked the eccentric clothes
which she still affects, but what dif-
ference it made to give her long cut,

enthusiasm from some Of those who
saw it.
When the studio finished her first
picture they were in dismay, and Have
we got ANYTHING, or have we got any
thing?" they asked themselves over
and over again. Critics differed. Some
of our most impressive ones didn't like
Hepburn one bit And said so. Others,
like myself, were sold to this strange
countenance and crisp individualism
from the start. The first runner-up
for Garbo I'd seen since first glimpsed
the Swedish genius.
Hepburn arrived to work in His

went out in Hollywood, but not through
any pose of keeping to herself; just
had her own friends and would rathe-
see them in their homes than In a cas-.

Then some one discovered that the

to a pretty rich fellow, and that her
father wasn't the plutocrat he'd been
made out, but a very nice Hartford
surgeon, and she had relatives who
