ROfALE-A new dance line,
the Six Stsrlets, join the revue
headed by Sybil Bowan, "Ameri-

the girls is a speciality dancer and
the line was recruited from vaude-
willie revues in Chicago.
Most outstanding of all Miss
Bowan's character sketches is the
one of Eleanor Roosevelt. It's a
convincing bit of satire which
grows more real as each little
speech mannerism is emphasized.
Beautiful Ruth Petty, song

Irenditions of familiar melodies and
amusing parodies, and Dorothy
Keller puts dynamics in her tap

This is novel of type widely
beloved by feminine writers, the
novel which takes the form of a
diary kept by wise and witty wom-
an whose life is bounded by domes-

ranging and whimsical. The draw
back to such books is that the sup
posed diary keeper cannot we'll be
wiser or more witty than the author
who creates her, and all too fire.
quently, the author is not wise or
witty enough. She will have her
heroine receive a constant flow of
tribute for her vivacity and charm,
but her reader will only wonder
why. The sad conclusion in such
cases is necessarily that the diarist S
friends and neighbors are even
triter of mind than she herself
which would be shockingly wide
yawn.
That is about the case Of Mrs.
Tim, the same Mrs. Tim who ap-
peared in the earlier Stevenson opus,
Mrs. Tim of the Regiment" She
is the wife of an English major,
she naturally lives at army posts,
she has two children whom she
loves as mothers are apt to do. she
keeps house in the style permitted
by majors pay and attends to the
social duties of her position. So
there you are. In the present book,
the major goes off to war and Mrs.
