hilarious second week at R-k-O
Keith's Theater
1t is one of the gayest and most
thoroughly enjoyable comedy ro-
many a moon. a film that has the
intelligence and the good taste to
present certain elements of common
sense and yet gloss them over with
such utter inanity that you don't
realize it has been at all sensible
until you stop to think about it.
My Man Godfrey's" tenets con-
corning the merits of the forgotten

comparison between these people and
certain sections of so-called society
is just there for the taking if you

laughter that more often than not
falls in the guffaw class, as this at
tractive simpleton makes a butler
of the derelict she picks up on a
"scavenger hunt" then falls in love

The film is practically a riot as
it conglomerates bit of social COM
ment with slapstick and satire, and
the merry IDIOTS (this Irene Bullock,
her sister, her mother and her
mothers ''protege," principally. who
make Godfrey'S life a complicated
lot for a time. are some of the best
idiots the cinema has achieved.
Carole Lombard romps gloriously

Characterization of Irene. and William
Powell is smoothly fitted for the
Godfrey role. where he has plenty
of opportunity for suave comedy. The
others principally concerned are Alice

feather quill shooting up from the
crown, stunning velvet gloves with
a wrist bracelet of elaborate COM
position flowers like the cloissone
jewelry of an earlier day. Garnet
tones in jewelry or silk material are
very important this season.
"Swing" skirts are sweeping the
country along with swing music.
For afternoon wear there is a feel
ing of gaiety and modernity in full
skirted frocks of rich silks patterned
with metals or stiff silk satins and
novelty silk crepes. 1t is a well
known fact that silks have a lovely
drape and "swing" of their own
that make them the perfec. medi-
UNI for such styles. Elegance in the
daytime mode is expressed in the
afternoon dress pictured to the left.
A coat of mail inspired the idea of
gun metal on black silk crepe for
this MODEL which so gracefully fea-
lures one of the very new swing
skirts. The tiny hat is a glorifed
version of the overseas cap.
It's high-note fashion, too, for
skirts to be lined with bright con-
trasting silk taffeta. Bright red silk
taffeta lines the swing skirt of the
black silk crepe afternoon dress
worn by the figure seated. Match
ing silk is revealed at the throat
with the color accented in ruby-and-
brilliant brooches. The empire
waist with unique sleeves, the skirt
and the most gorgeous velvet gloves
are all very 1886.
Metals for all sorts of dresses gilt
ter in the mode. There are silk
cocktail frocks in street length,
often with finely pleated skirts. Silk
metal brocades make tunics to
wear with afternoon suits of Lyons
or taffeta-backed silk velvets, or
evening tunics and redingotes worn
over slim silk foundations.

outstanding in todays mode, done
with a suaveness that fits them per-
fectly into the tempo of modern
trends. You see in all advance dress
collections silk crepes, silk metals,
silk satins, velvets and brocades
styled in typical button-down-the-

For cocktail, dinner and evening
wear, lace has taken on new in
terest .this season because of the
other fabrics with which it is used.
The French couturiers in their re-
cent collections showed sheerest
laces with such fabrics as broad
cloth and other heavy woolens, as
well as with velvet and satin. The
dinner gown shown has a perfect
ly straight silhouette in velvet, with
interest centered at the back in the
deep V bodice line of finet Chantilly
lace. The sleeves, too, are all of
lace, as well as the shallow v line
in front, finished with a soft lace
jabot. 1t is an admirable dress for
all of the fall and winter months,
and is youthful as well as suited to
more mature types.
