Musings of Old Man Hattan

HAVE been around here a long time, but I have never seen an actor
who couldn't name off-hand the best actor in the world.

Since Prohibition, advertising has kind of fallen off. Not so many
stars have three-sheets in the wind as formerly.

Government has ruled that when a woman gets a passport to go
abroad, she has to give her married name. Now, ain't that just the
darndest luck to have a lot of trips spoiled that way?

Actor and actress married by telegraph while three thousand miles
apart. Those who have been wired together let no man put asunder.

One cafe jazz orchestra was all broken up the other night. The chef
of the cafe borrowed five of the drummer's skillets and two wash-boilers,
and there was no music that evening.

More good shows are put out of business by impoliteness in the box-
office than by poor acting.

It is a long road that has no company walking home.

It looks as though, pretty soon, the Producing Managers' Assn. will
have everything except producing managers.

Never ask regarding an actor's whereabouts. Maybe he is staying in
bed while they are at the tailor's.

Disarmament of the Movies

TT7E believe that the disarmament of

V y the movies is a good idea. It was

broached at the disarmament conference

at Washington. And it has been taken

seriously.

Being here on the ground where first
presentations are made we are in a posi-
tion to note the effect of arms in the
movies on the young. Having a special
leased wire from Los Angeles and Holly-
wood, we learn constantly of the effects
of heavy armaments upon the actors
and actresses.

Thus occupying a judicial position in
the matter, we are prepared to offer the
following suggestions, to be adopted and
enforced immediately.

Cowboys and bandits in all Western
pictures shall be armed only with bean
blowers. Burglars who blow up safes
shall not be permitted to have dynamite
but shall use the good old prohibition
explosive, yeast.

The weapons of movie heroines shall
be removed entirely, this including lip-

sticks, eye-lash paste, grease paint,
rouge, powder, permanent waves, short
skirts, studio smiles, dimples, peroxide,
trimmed eye-brows, Woolworth jewelry
and Cupid's-bow mouths.

The celebrated comedy weapons such
as custard pies, bladders, baseball bats,
Ford cars and jardinieres shall be elim-
inated entirely.

No movie actor shall carry anything
on the hip.

It shall be illegal for a hero to shoot
a man-eating lion. He shall fight the
lion with his fists. In the case of a
ferocious alligator he shall not throw
a bomb into the creature's open mouth
but shall approach deftly and feed him
anthrax germs out of a teaspoon.

If Caesar must be stabbed he shall be
stabbed with a fresh and limber codfish.

The youth of our broad land, which,
by the way, is considerably narrower
than it used to be, must be protected.
The next generation must be mollycod-
dles. That is imperative.

A Drama with Its Climax at the End of the Line

QCENE— A motor bus
O in motion. &H Lisle °Bell

Time — Late afternoon.

(The bus is crowded with men,
chiefly patrons of bootleggers as may
be seen by the packages which they
carry with solicitous care. Most of them
hold the bundles on their knees, to keep
the bus from jolting their good cheer.)

Conductor (as the bus stops) — Make
a little more room in there, will you?

(The men edge together, and three
more get on.)

Conductor (as the bus stops again) —
Make a little more room in there, will
you?

(The passengers move half-heartedly,
and five more get on.)

Conductor (as the bus stops again) —
Plenty of room inside; crowd up a little,
will you?

( The passengers squeeze, and two more
get in.)

Lady (climbing in at the next stop) —
Oh!

Conductor — No more room in there,
ma'am.

Lady — But I can't hang out here on
the step.

Conductor (thrusting his head inside)
— Any gentleman want to give up his
seat to a lady?

(Nothing doing; evidently no gentle-
man does.)

Lady — Oh dear!

Passenger (jovially, after a careful
glance around to make certain there's
no one in the bus who knows him) —
The lady might sit on my lap, if she
wishes.

Lady (noticing that he isn't carrying

a bundle, and correctly
surmising that he must be
carrying it like a gentle-
man, instead of like a delivery boy) — Oh,
that's awfully kind of you!

(She accepts his invitation. Outside
the fact that she's a trifle plump, he has
no regrets. She is a snappy article, and
the other occupants look on with envy.)

One of Them — The voice with the
smile wins.

Another — Opportunity only knocks
once at every man's knees.

Another — Always room for one more.

Lady — I hope I'm not too heavy.

Passenger (underneath; gallantly) —
Light as a feather. (Pause)

Lady — A lot of travel out this way,
isn't there?

Passenger — Yes, luckily for me.
(Pause)

Lady — Do you ride out on this line
often?

Passenger — Every day.

Lady — Oh, is that so? This is my
first trip.

Passenger — How far out are you go-
ing?

Lady — I get off at the last stop, and
go to the second house on the left.

Passenger (startled) — The second
house on the left, did you say?

Lady — Yes.

Passenger — Good heavens, that's where
I live!

Lady— Really? Well, isn't that funny!
I'm your new cook!

(Is it any wonder he got out and
walked the rest of the way?)
CURTAIN.

THE WISE VIRGINS

■By Katharine Negley
T ONG ago, the wise virgins arose, trimmed their lamps, took oil in their vessels,
J-J and went forth to meet the bridegroom. When the bridegroom came, they were
ready.

Today, the wise virgins drop a little belladonna into their lamps, trim their
eyebrows to a thin line, darken their lashes with a lotion, and also go forth to meet
a bridegroom.

But when the prospective bridegroom comes, they keep him waiting a half hour
or so, just to make them seem harder to get.

People who have no use for the prince of Peace are the loudest in denouncing
the price of war.

"I Hear — "

Interesting Bits About People You Know, Have Seen or

Have Heard About

TWO of the most distin-
guished guests at the
banquet to David Belasco
given at the Biltmore by the Society of
Arts and Sciences were separated by the
arbitrary placement of stars of the stage
at the table of honor and their spouses
or sweethearts or escorts at the round
tables below.

The woman, looking especially lovely
in a widely decollete black gown, and
wearing a wide band of black ribbon
around her fair head, a diamond neck-
lace encircling her fair throat and
diamonds raying their brilliance from
her fingers, listened to her neighbor, Otto
H. Kahn, but looked often at a compact-
ly built, dark haired man who smiled un-
derstandingly at her from the tier below.
She smiled her relief when the long
drawn dinner with its flow of compli-
ments Belasco-ward was over and joined
the compactly built, dark haired man in
the foyer of the hotel. Meeting this
stage star and that magnate of the thea-
tre she alluded to her companion as
" This sweet thing " and " my husband."
He helped her into a sumptuous limou-
sine and they drove away at one in the
morning to their home at that nest of
both love and content at 350 Park Ave.

The pair are known to the stage as
Elsie Ferguson and her husband. To
banking circles and in society they are
Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Clarke. In both
of these remote-from-each-other worlds
we hear the same sentiment expressed in
different language. In stage land it is,
" Everybody likes Elsie Ferguson's
husband." In Fifth Avenue homes, and
on Wall Street, " Clarke is a model
husband."

Now and then to the surface of gos-
sip's stream rises the story that Miss
Ferguson and her mate are on the verge
of a separation. The tales are as idle
as the renowned Happy Hooligan and as
far from the truth as New York is from
Shanghai.

Doubtless the cause of the occasionally
recurrent rumor is the fact that the star
of " The Varying Shore " desires to be
and is freer than most wives to absent
herself from the dinner table of her
home.

9g THE TATLER

The gifted young woman
believes that too much rou-
tine is a feather pillow
which smothers genius and destroys
talent. She is of the same mind as
Fannie Hurst, though she continues to
live under the same roof with her
husband, and is not arbitrary in the
matter of the number of breakfasts
which they share per week.

" I must be free to travel, to think, to
study. If I were not I would be un-
happy. Not only that, but ineffective.
Unless I had enough elbow room in life
I would be a failure."

That is her platform. It is one to
which her handsome husband, who, by
the way, is vice-president of the Harri-
man National Bank, amply subscribes.

A NOTHER of the trio of Self-Elected
** Free Wives is Irene Castle Treman.
Mrs. Treman's last marriage gives every
evidence of being a success, save the fact
that the pair is not constantly together;
and that she is occasionally seen escorted
to or from the Knickerbocker grill,
where she is dancing, by someone else
than the wealthy hardware merchant of
Ithaca. Ex-Captain Treman, though de--
voted to his wife, is nearly equally de-
voted to business. He cannot let the
hardware business languish while he sits
in the Knickerbocker grill watching his
wife's perfect dancing.

JNA CLAIRE is another intensely
-* modern young woman who amazes the
mediocre citizen and citizeness by not
constantly rattling her marriage chains.
The star of "Bluebeard's Eighth Wife,"
unlike the other young women I have
mentioned, is not the wife of a rich man.
Her husband is a newspaper writer,
rich, she says, in talent and in amiability.
His working hours are the numerous and
irregular labor periods of the Park Row
man. He cannot always arrive at the
stage door at the time his wife issues
from it. Wherefore she is sometimes
seen at the Plaza or elsewhere consum-
ing a Welsh rarebit with some other and
possibly handsomer man.

Each of these young women is in love
(Continued on next page)

Six

THE TATLER

(Continued from page 5)
with her husband to date, and neither
entertains a thought of life apart from
him. Indeed Elsie Ferguson has prom-
ised in a current magazine article to
write a book about "the noblest man in
the world" when she has retired from
the stage and screen. Irene Castle
avows that at last she is really happy.
Ina Claire said she followed her heart
to the altar.

The only difference between these
young women and other happily married
and utterly domesticated ones is that
they secured from their husbands, who
are moderns too, the pre-matrimonial
promise that they might do as they liked.
The young men, confident that the girls
of their hearts would never like to do
what would humiliate their husbands,
heartily agreed.

One of the husbands, in a moment of
club expansiveness of mood, summed the
situation with, "A thoroughbred does not
need a bit."

Then — Gun-employed.
Now — Un-employed.

A SKED about her birthday thoughts
■ii on her sixtieth anniversary, Decem-
ber fourth last, Lillian Russell looked
surprised.

"I hadn't realized that it was my
.birthday until telegrams began to ar-
rive. Then I had so much to do in get-
ting through the day's engagements that
I hadn't a moment to think of myself nor
count the birthdays; I suppose my birth-
day thought was the same as my all
through the week thought. I borrowed
it from Marcus Aurelius. It is the
greatest rule of conduct ever enunciated.
'Live each day as though it were your
last.'"

DUMORS of the reconciliation of a
■*Y couple well known on Broadway are
current. A. J. Levy, the well known
race-track man and part owner of the
Eltinge Theatre, looks, and is, lonely.
The habit of former happiness is assert-
ing itself. From his solitary hotel room
he set forth again and again to watch
his beautiful ex-wife Lillian Albertson's
performance in "The Six Fifty" at the
Hudson Theatre. During her illness
that followed he made daily inquiries
about her progress and asked to be per-

mitted to see the invalid. The young
woman was obdurate but friends of the
pair still hope for a reunion of the twain,
who were divorced last summer.

DILLY BURKE has a novel rule for
■O holding your husband.

"Always provide him with something
to forgive," she says. "Nothing so in-
trigues a man as snuggling up to him
and begging him once more to forgive
you. A reconciliation is a rekindling of
the fires of love."

The hardest blow to a woman who
drives a limousine is to give the
right of ivay to another ivoman with
a Ford.

rj*i HE amicable separation of De Wolf
■* Hopper from his fifth wife is a
theme on Rialto tongue tips.

Elda Curry has gone the way of her
four predecessors. She no longer abides
under the same shelter with the elon-
gated comedian. Their young son is
with his mother. A definite settlement
is being considered by the attorneys of
the husband and wife.

Meanwhile Jack Hopper, the clever
and good looking son of the comedian
by his first marriage, secretary of the
United States Mortgage and Trust Com-
pany, is furnishing his famous papa an
example in keeping himself and wife
happy for a long term.

No woman takes any interest in
her soul until she begins to lose her
complexion.

PRETTY little Mona Ceballos, who
late last year had broker Frederick
Florian arrested for misappropriation
of seven thousand dollars entrusted to
him, has had a litigious career.

She was Mona Desmond, once a
chorus girl at Weber and Fields. She
married L. Reed Fuller, son of a multi-
millionaire of New York, but somehow
lost him after a brief term marriage
which some memories register as of a
week's duration. A Mexican husband,
named Ceballos, then appeared and dis-
appeared. Edna May named her as the
co-respondent in her suit against Fred
Titus for divorce. Last year the blue-

eyed one sued Clifford Hendrix on the
eve of his marriage for breach of
promise.

LR. PRATT, who performed the last
operation on Eva Tanguay's piquant
face, robbing her of several inches of
skin, but subtracting at the same time
evidence of more than that number of
years, says the
whirlwind girl is
an admirable pupil
except that she
knows nothing of
the art of keeping
still.

"While other
patients rest after
an operation, that

ning around the

I expected that the
results would be
disastrous. But she

And she was
right."

caused many interviews, personal inter-

ited " Bill," as she and other friends
term him, on his Michigan farm, where
his mother and sisters were hostesses.
They attended the professional matinees
of each other's plays. They appeared
together at the Sixty Club and at David

tall leading man whom New York ac-
cepted as a sterling actor when he was
the Clarence of the Booth Tarkington

Swede, early transplanted to a Michigan

propinquity that even Cupid demands

when he engaged both for the trial per-

'T'HE friendship of Ethel Barrymore
■*■ and her one time leading man, Wil-

still nominally the wife of Russell Colt,
though legally separated from him, di-
vorces and annulments have been se-
cured by persons of her faith. Mr. Boyd
is a popular actor and a manly man. It
was he who, while resenting McGraw's
remarks to a scrub woman, occasioned
the fisticuffs that caused much comment
in and about the Lambs.

If you drop half your week's salary
on a bet, don't go home with a long face
in place of the long green. Go home
smiling, and tell her to go and buy her-
self a new hat.

Ill
When you have a poker appointment,

intelligence, and she'd rather you'd give
her credit for it.

If you commit the indiscretion of hir-

Speaking of Broadway

A7"EW YORK is run on one principle: Never have any.

■L V More people die in New York every day for the want of something better

to do than any other place on earth.

The only difference between the average man and a Broadwayite is that the
ordinary man is made of plain dust, while the Broadwayite is, of a necessity, made
of gold dust.

It is not safe to cross Broadway at any other time but four o'clock in the
morning.

This is why so many people wait and cross Broadway along about that time.

Greater New York is divided into several sections — and Brooklyn.

A Brooklynite is a stranger within his own gate.

The strangest thing about him is that he doesn't consider it strange that he
should live in Brooklyn.

Ask a Brooklynite where he wants to be buried when he dies, and he'll tell
you that he doesn't want to be buried at all ; he wants to be dug up !

A N open confession is good for the
■** soul.

Miss Bee Palmer, darling of the cab-
arets and winsome wiggler of voodveel,
has confessed.

People never thought it of Bee, really.
But the thing she did has broken up her
happy home and Friend Husband will
not wash the dishes for her any more.
In the final settlement, the mother gets
the custody of the gold-fish.

It was a hard thing for Bee to con-
fess, but she did it and has gone West
to drown her sorrows in a vaudeville act
with Mons. Jacques D'Empsey and other
great actors.

The awful truth is that Bee invented
the shimmy. Detectives have been work-
ing on the case ever since the shimmy
first came into view. Had it not been
for Bee's confession, they would never
have known and another mystery would
have gone down in the annals of crime.

The way Bee came upon this episode
in her life is peculiar in itself. She was
dancing one evening with her husband,
recently resigned, when a strap, that
went over one of her shoulders to hold
her dress up, broke and she had to keep
hitching her shoulder to make the bodice
stay in place. After that, it had made
such a hit, she did it regularly. The
shimmy gets its name from chemise,
which is a French word meaning nothing
much.

Bee danced the shimmy for a long time
and made a great deal of money out of
it, and now she has gone far west to
expiate this shame of her youth.

Now that the world has found out
who invented the shimmy, all is serene.

Sixteen THE TATLER

The Country Cousin

tTER ears have never been pierced for jade earrings or by jazz bands.
-*-* She puts powder on her nose, but not on her knees.

Her skirt meets her shoes and her blouse meets its obligations.

She can walk without a swagger, a swagger stick, or a swig.

On Fifth Avenue she is conspicuous as the heroine of a thrilling western drama,
" No Pomeranian to Guide Her."

She goes to the movies three nights a week and to prayer-meeting one night.

She likes five-reel pictures and one-reel sermons.

Claret lemonade is her strongest drink, but she puzzles about the pronunciation
of champagne as if she had to order it, and about the price as if she had to pay it.

When she visits New York nothing escapes her — not even the animals in Bronx
Park.

She stuffs cotton in her ears so she won't hear the rumble of the elevated at
night, but no one can pull the wool over her eyes in the daytime.

She believes in guide-books, street maps, traffic officers, and signs that say
" DANGER " in red letters.

She can walk longer distances in museums without getting tired than a New
York girl can dance in cabarets without getting arrested.

And before she has b&n in New York six months she gets her eyebrows shaped,
begins to say "eye-ther," and inquires languidly: "So you're from the west?
Really, how interesting! "

One on Golden

JOHN GOLDEN, who is worth oodles of wealth, generally dresses like a gardener.
One day his colored boy brought him for lunch some extra fine chicken. Golden
asked where he managed to get such a fine specimen of chicken. The colored boy
told him, and some days afterwards Golden walked into the restaurant designated
by his darkey. He ordered chicken and ate it with delight. As he was paying his
bill he said to the cashier: "That's fine chicken, son. You can't get chicken like
that anywhere else in New York. Even at Sherry's they don't give you chicken
like that." The cashier looked him up and down for a moment, and then came out
with: " And when the hell were you ever in Sherry's? "

Lohengrin and Lingerie

/TiHEY'RE taking the grin out of
J- Lohengrin.

It isn't going to be any fun being a
stylish bride any more.

The kill-joys are on her trail and what
they have done to her — Oh, my wird!

Various ministers throughout the
country have come out flatfooted and
said they are tired of marrying half-
dressed young ladies in front of re-
spectable congregations. Several of
them have promulgated the same set of
rules, including the following:

" Sleeves must not be shorter than the
elbow. (By the way, how short is an
elbow, anyhow?)

" Skirts must not be higher than the
spring in the calf of the leg.

" When the bride kneels, the calf of
her leg shall not show, much less her
knee.

" All lingerie must be carefully con-
cealed. All transparent or semi-trans-
parent material shall be heavily lined.

" There shall be no decollete except for
a modest ' v ' at the neck. Backs shall
be completely covered."

Up to the time of going to press it
has not been ordered that brides shall
wear fur coats reaching to the heels or
go to the altar clad in one of those
much-advertised vapor baths which con-
ceal everything but the head.

But, think of the bridegroom. Is he
not to be given a chance to back out of
the agreement when he sees the bride
at the altar? He is entitled to some
consideration. Marrying a girl when he
can see only the tip of her nose or one
or two fingers is rather a risky adven-

hard enough to get a husband nowadays
without trying to ensnare one who is
willing to take a chance and hook up
for life with some damsel who is wrap-
ped in a horse blanket or an automobile
coat, muffler, cap, goggles and carriage
boots.

It is something like selecting a wife
by photograph only more hazardous.

A man won't even buy a suit of clothes
or a necktie without taking a look at it.

If the present rules are maintained,
it will put a crimp in the marriage busi-
ness. Many a man has looked at his
bride in modern attire and learned in
the nick of time that he didn't want to
get married. Marriage should not be
a gold brick game.

And then think how small the audience
will be with nothing to look at but the
bride's bouquet.

It's all wrong. Ask any lady who has
the marrying habit.

The rules may be all right for the poor
old bird who has six or eight bow-leg-

things, it should be the greatest good

participate in an entertainment on a

week-end guests?

After they had completed their act,
they were invited by the host, a well-
known millionaire, to look the place over.

They wandered about among the mag-
nificent rooms and marveled greatly:

" What do you think of this soft old
bloke? " asked one. " How did he get
all this? I'll bet he can't even stand on

Saying in Hollywood The Hub of the Movie Universe

ZTOLLYWOOD: — Con-
-" stance Talmadge left
here three years ago a
starlet with hopes. She returned a star
with seven trunks and the unique experi-
ence of having acquired — and lost — a
husband in the interim. She and John
Pialoglou have " agreed to disagree " be-
cause she won't give up her career for
the privilege of cooking his pancakes —
and he won't have a " professional "
wife. So there! But those among her
closest friends say the separation was
inevitable, as it was a mesalliance to
start with. Sympathy here is entirely
with " Connie." Norma Talmadge is
one of the happiest of our young mat-
rons, credit for which she claims is due
to a great extent to the fact that both
she and her husband have a common in-
terest in their work.

r HERE'S nothing like being popular,
says Frank Mayo. The other day
in his " fan " mail he found a scented
envelope bearing the return address of
Marthe Duys, Belgian opera star. The
diva was inquiring if she might use
Mayo's last name — professionally only!
— instead of her own. He wrote back
that she might help herself to the name,
but that he himself couldn't accompany
it, being the present property of his
wife, formerly Dagmar Godowsky.

says he doesn't even know
whether or not his de-
cree of divorce from Mil-
dred Harris has become final. (It has.)
Claire Windsor met him at the train on
his arrival home from England. (I'll
bet she didn't meet him when he re-
turned from the camping jaunt with
Mrs. Sheridan.) But May Collins stayed
home, saying she thought it much more
appropriate " having him come to see
me!" He brought Claire an ermine
scarf and muff — and May a silver fox
fur. May was very anxious that the
town shou'd see her gift — and hear about
it, too— but Claire, who is by nature
conservative and quiet, locked hers up at
home and it was only by chance that I
heard of it.

May is reported to be accepting Rich-
ard Dix's attentions, though she is very,
very young to be engaging in such
grown-up sports as love-making. Be-
sides, she has just signed a contract to
make pictures for Metropolitan Produc-
tions at the Mayer studio and it forbids
her marriage. So things do look bright
for Claire, don't they?

rjIRECTORS live cheaply, it seems,
U though their pictures often cost
money. Rex Ingram and his bride, Alice
Terry, are honeymooning in the little
studio-bungalow in which he kept
" bachelor's house " before his marriage.
And Griffith, though reports credit him
with spending several hundred thousand
dollars on " The Two Orphans," lives in
two rooms at the studio, one of which
is a gymnasium.

I~\AME RUMOR doesn't always know
U what she is talking about. For in-
stance, while she had it that Jack Gil-
bert was sentimentally attached to Lila
Lee, Jack was busy wooing and winning

THE editor of a movie periodical was
enraged recently because of Kath-
erine MacDonald's refusal to pose for
some hair-dressing pictures for his mag-
azine — she being the only star in Holly-
wood to pass up this form of publicity
that takes so well with the feminine
" fan " readers. It wasn't because she
wanted to be up-stage. Then why?
Shh! Because the American Beauty is
said to wear more " puffs " than real
hair!

ATAOMI CHILDERS has retired from

guesses why! Gorrect! She is the wife
of Luther Reed, scenarist.

JACK PICKFORD is going to wed
Marilynn Miller — they say today.
(Maybe it will be some other damosel to-
morrow.) Marilynn — a dancer in
"Sally" on Broadway — was a great
friend of his first wife, Olive Thomas.

mored last week to have a sentimental
interest, is consoling herself with Gareth
Hughes. Mildred is about to burst forth
in vaudeville.

bring it to the Majestic here soon. He
denied the report that he is to wed
Peggy Joyce. " Me marry Peggy? " he
was scandalized. " Why, she'd clean me
out in a month ! "

PAULINE FREDERICK has pur-
chased a lot adjoining her beauti-
ful Beverly Hills home, on which it is
believed she contemplates erecting a
home for " a member of her family." It
looks as if Polly plans another matri-

monial venture, doesn't it, though she
does profess herself to be through with
husbands and entertainments since she
has gone in for the " clean freedom of
the West." Her mother has always lived
with her.

OIG. LUIGI MONTAGNI, recently
^-J rechristened Louis Montana, but
better known as Bull, gave $47 to the
County the other day. He was in too big
a hurry to leave one place in order to
get some place else and a traffic cop
happened — yes, that's the word there —
to be around. Hence his little donation.
" Say," the " Bool " told the judge, " it's
worth $47 to get out of this town ! "
Bull, by the way, threatens matrimony
— again. It isn't generally known that
he is divorced. His wife decamped, he
says, during the war, taking with her
their two children and all his money.

A GNES AYERS has received legal
■** permission to drop " Schucker "
from her name, having recently dropped
the gentleman to whom the name be-
longs. Thought Agnes' real name was
Henkle? A boy who claims to be her
brother makes a none too lucrative liv-
ing by mowing lawns in Hollywood.
Says he'd rather do that than work in
the films! Wow! Agnes is a mighty
fine girl, anyway.

V V licity trumpets, Ann Hastings was
brought out from New York to play
with Larry Semon in his comedies. And
two days later found Ann rolling back
toward New York as fast as the train
could take her! She broke her contract
" because of personal differences with
Semon " and says " I do not wish to be
associated with him." Semon calls it
" temperament." But Ann uses another
word. Ann is a pretty little thing.

JUDITH HALLOR has decided to

r)ERHAPS you adoring lady-fans
■* would like to know what becomes of
the violet-scented mash-notes you send in
reams and reams to Rudolph Valentino,
the " screen lover." He gets only 900 of
them a week and said recently that if
they continued he might be forced to
retire from the screen. Forced to retire —
" by pestering women." This may break
the hearts of countless flappers — but
truth must out. His " fan " letters are
turned over to Madame Rambova's maid,
who is supposed to answer them in the
name of the star. All money received
from admiring women " fans " — and it is
no small sum either — goes to the maid.

PAULINE HALL, a film actress, has
brought suit against a local " beauty
doctor " for damages done her face in
an operation to remove a portion of her
lip. Sometimes it works — and then
again it doesn't. Fannie Ward emerged
from a facial redecoration with such pro-
found esteem for the art that she is open-
ing a school for beauty specialists in
Paris! But Jack Dean's experience with
the beauty knives was not so happy. He's
Fanny's husband, you know, and wanted
to keep apace with her rejuvenation. But
it seemed that a piece of putty or some-
thing failed to connect properly and later
caused his chin to fall, necessitating his
withdrawal from the screen. Madame
Yorska had her nose remodeled success-
fully by plastic surgeons. Eva Tanguay
is able to trill " I Don't Care "—blithely
— for it happens that her sojourn with
the beauty doctor resulted in the resto-
ration of youthful charm. And Edna
Wallace Hopper — remembered by our
fathers— wearied by husbands and the
years, sought the surgeoness in search of
bygone beauty. After two hours under
the knife, she emerged rejuvenated. And
now nobody recognizes Edna save those
who remember " Wang."

Tree Bark — Synthetic Silk — Coiffure Bands —

Perfume Lamps — Unusual Ginghams

JT AVE you an artist in

put him or her, as the case
may be, to work on your patent leather
pumps, for hand-painted shoes are on the
road to popularity. A small spray of
dainty flowers across the vamp and strap
seems to be the popular means of decora-
tion.

By BETTY GRANT

Black and white check woolen hose for
sports wear are very effective and cer-
tainly striking.

A new form of knickers was shown at
a well-known store. The skirt was of
tan wool material and was slashed on
either side. Three narrow bands con-
nected the back with the front. A pair
of rather full knickers made with a tight
cuff just below the knee is worn under-
neath the skirt. The knickers are of the
same material.

The Palm Beach fashions are interest-
ing in that they are harbingers of spring
modes. A Fifth Avenue store is showing
sports dresses with white skirts and
krepeknit jackets of vivid colors.

A cerise colored tweed is made ex-
tremely plain and has a tailored pongee
vest fastened with round cerise buttons.

The vest effect craze has extended to
waists. A very stunning model is one
fashioned after a man's waistcoat. The
sleeves and back are of white crepe de
chine.

A cape costume of biege georgette
crepe studded with brilliants is trimmed
with roses made of pleatings of the ma-
terial.

Flannel is the popular fabric for win-
ter resort and summer wear. The stores
are showing some very striking skirts to
be worn with sport coats and sweaters.
Models most in demand are bordered in
bright contrasting colors in saw-tooth
effects and pleated.

Silk sport skirts have

novelty pockets and belt

arrangements in bright

colors. Irregular narrow tabs finished

with tiny buttons make effective pockets.

Novelty pockets on suits and coats are
shown on advanced spring models. Nu-
merous rows of soutache braid decorated
the pockets of one stylish suit.

The French women favor the blouse
suit models for spring. One stunning
model is straight-lined, both skirt and
jacket very simple. The jacket is hip-
length and bloused at a low waistline by
means of a string belt. The collar is
high but open at the front and the
sleeves are slightly flared.

Dresses for spring favor the rust
shades, caramel, golden brown and navy.
Steel beads are used extensively as trim-
ming on crepes.

Beads are still in favor and are run-
ning to extremes. Some shaped like
doughnuts are sewed on with varied col-
ored bright threads. One model had
these beads stitched with red, green and
blue on pale yellow.

A wholesale house is featuring short
separate coats of camel's hair cloth in
bright colors for spring.

Taffetas are always good for spring.
An interesting frock of navy taffeta is
trimmed in loops of fuschia moire ribbon.
The ribbon forms the sleeves and is also
used at the waistline.

Ribbons are being used extensively for
dress trimmings, also for hats. A new
line of French ribbons includes silk or-
gandie ribbon, grosgrains corded so that
they can be shirred, and taffetas with all
sorts of fancy edges. The silk organdie
ribbon is a stiff gauze with picot edge.
It is moderately priced and will make
effective trimming for light dresses. It
comes in Swiss red, lemon and different
colored plaids.

THE TATLER

Ribbons woven to resemble barks of
trees are new and interesting and are
named for the trees they represent —
poplar, pine, birch, etc.

Lace shawls in wonderful colorings
are on the road to replacing the silk ones
for summer wear. The foundation of the
shawls is Brussels net. A large square
shawl has a wide embroidered border of
Paisley design and coloring. It is bor-
dered with a silk fringe six inches long.
The colors of the embroidery are re-
peated in the fringe.

Most of the shawls, however, are half-
moon in shape because this type drapes
more gracefully.

Gauze and lace fans are supplanting
the popular feather fan. A fan of black
lace had a tulle rosette with fringed
streamers at one side. Gauze fans are
hand painted with butterflies, flowers
and birds.

The figure corseted with a topless gir-
dle does not permit of an undergarment
with a tight waistband. A slip which
hangs from the shoulders by its straps
prevents a break at the waistline which
you sometimes notice on women who
wear the straight-line dress.

The newest idea for a slip has a top
of white or flesh color and a bottom of
black or navy, to suit a light blouse and
dark skirt or the dresses with a trans-
parent top and heavier skirt.

Ball fringe is very much used on im-
ported lingerie.

A pretty pair of garters to be worn
below the knee are made of quilled rib-
bon and trimmed with the ball fringe at
the lower edge.

Synthetic silk, a product of a Scotland
firm, is very practical because it loses
none of its glossiness from washing and
ironing. It has a wool base instead of
the wool fibre and is practically as warm
as wool. It comes in different weights.

The " Wendy " collar is the newest on
the market and is adjustable to different
style necklines.

Spats are being made in colors to
match the suit with which they are worn.
Ones of the heather mixtures are very
good with the tweed and sports suits.

Coiffure bands are really popular. A
novel one is made of a narrow band of
white rabbit with tiny oblong garlands
of small velvet roses in delicate shades
of pink.

A Boston store is showing novelties in
ginghams called the "patch-work check."
Two pieces of gingham are woven to-
gether and gives a very unusual effect.

A very pretty and practical perfume
lamp is shown at Leigh's on Fifth Ave-
nue. It is a parrot made of china and
gives a very good light as well as dain-
tily perfuming your boudoir.

This same store has a very pretty per-
fume vial of mother-of-pearl to be car-
ried in your handbag.

THE TATLER

Of What A-Veil?

AJO woman considers herself correct-
-iV ly — not to say decently — gowned
for the street without a veil.

She can leave off almost anything else
— and does. But the veil is the sine qua
non. She has to wear something, so it
might as well be something to blush be-
hind.

Veils come in many styles. There is
the non-skid variety which fits under the
chin, like the strap of an English police-
man's helmet. It is especially popular
with inveterate gossips, for it gives them
a certain amount of chin support during
the "parade rest" intervals.

Then there is the extremely abbrevi-
ated pattern, falling just below the eyes
and serving as an excellent dust-shield
for the eye-brows. It is always worn
just after the eye-brows have been
shaped and varnished, as it prevents
particles of dust from settling in the

eyebrows before the varnish has had
time to dry.

Certain types of veils have a coquet-
tish nature, and their loose ends flutter
in the breeze and tickle bystanders un-
der the chin or playfully knock off their
glasses.

Such veils are very charming no
doubt, but should never be worn near
an open fire. If one of them gets ablaze,
it can do a lot of damage to a perfectly
good marcel.

Kisses may be transmitted through
veils, but not satisfactorily. A man
doesn't relish the interruption. For the
social peck with which women greet
each other — without meaning it — the
veil is not a hindrance, but for serious,
sustained osculation, it's a mistake.

Germs, like kisses, can be transmitted
through veils, but no self-respecting
germ likes to be tangled up that way.

All Hands on Deck

TTT'E are in favor of the standardized
yy handshake. We never know,
when we are introduced to someone,
whether to expect torture or trickery.
And if it's a woman, we never know
whether it's going to be a normal shake
or a little second-story work.

The Hillyer Company

Suite 610, Masonic Temple

159 N. State Street Chicago, 111.

Let's get together and decide this
thing, once and for all. We've had more
shocks shaking hands than in almost any
other form of politeness, and we'd like
to know where we're at.

We've been caught in the pump-
handle non-stop, from the absent-minded
chap who gets a good grip on your hand
and forgets that you ever want it back.

We've suffered agonies with the
steam-roller, the handshake of the hard
guy who gives an imitation of Samson
before he got a haircut.

We've come up against the dishcloth
clasp, perpetrated by the spineless indi-
vidual.

We've experienced the bartender mo-
tion, the up-and-down effect that re-
minds one of the old days.

We have been introduced via the ele-
vated exchange — the sort of shake you
can expect from a grand dame, who
curves her arm like a swan's neck and
murmurs, " Chawmed, I'm suah."

Then there's the tingle - linger — the
kind your best girl gives you.

And the icy slip — three fingers and a
quick getaway.

There's no system at all, and the
sooner we get a standardized grip, the
sooner we'll be able to move in polite
society — without being asked to move.

The Reports and the Truth

^T^HE newspapers re-
■*- ported :

That Lina Cavalieri, re-
nowned beauty of the Chicago Opera
company, failed to make her debut in
" Tosca " on November 15, and did not
appear in subsequent productions of the
Chicago Opera company, because she was
ill — but the operatic star declined to ap-
pear because of a grievance which ex-
isted between herself and Mary Garden,
and did not admit it because such an ad-
mission would affect the compensation
clause in her contract.

That Katherine Titus, new beauty who
is soon to join the forces of the Famous
Players-Jesse Lasky Corporation, was
engaged to marry Eddie Rickenbacher,
America's premier flying ace in the late
war — but Katherine never even met the
man.

That Pola Negri was very fond of
Charlie Chaplin — but after meeting
Charlie for the first time, Pola made a
cute little moue and said, " My, isn't he
the saddest looking comedian you ever
saw? "

That Theda Bara's early life was a
mystery — but a number of people in Cin-
cinnati know it like an open book.

That Grace Darling quit the movies
three years ago following an automobile
accident in which she was horribly crip-
pled — but Grace, who was not crippled
or even disfigured, quit the movies with-
out a ripple of comment and went back
to private life, where she is a noted
member of America's aristocracy.

That Rudolph Valentino was a prom-

■Bj> Petet F. cMeyer

i s i n g young bachelor,

looking for a promising

young wife — and now we

learn that Mrs. Valentino is bringing

suit for divorce.

That William S. Hart was engaged to
be married, first to Jane Novak and then
to Eva, and that it was supposed to be
quiet — but the sly William, who is ex-
ceedingly shy in private life, had a pur-
pose in letting that report leak out, for
soon as Winifred Westover heard it, she
came hustling back from Sweden, and
now she is Mrs. William S. Hart.

That Conway Tearle, husband of
Adele Rowland, grew up into a powerful
man from a frail boyhood — but Conway,
at fifteen, was a veritable husky, and
even at that tender age was planning to
become a professional boxer.

That Gloria Swanson "discovered "
Bebe Daniels — but Bebe never met
Gloria until they appeared together in
" The Affairs of Anatol."

That Agnes Ayers had been on the
stage before entering the movies— but
Agnes never appeared in professional
theatricals until that fateful day when
a director at the old Essenay studios in
Chicago met her and induced her to pose
for the screen.

That Betty Blythe had quarrelled with
Tom Mix during the making of " The
Queen of Sheba " — but Betty merely de-
clined to let Tom " double " for her in
the chariot race, which came as a sug-
gestion from William Fox, who thought
that chariot driving was too risky for a
woman.

Putting the Kick in Psychic

IT you have a little
-* spare time, and your
income tax blank — not in-
tended for swearing — is made out, you
can do yourself a good turn, according
to the latest scientific dope, by psycho-
analyzing yourself. In this way you
may find that you are a hotbed of com-
plexes, all ready to sprout.

In fact, if you go over yourself thor-
oughly, and find out exactly what your
subconscious mind is home-brewing, you
may prevent lots of disasters — such as
flirting with the wrong woman, hiring
the wrong cook, leading the wrong suit,
or bribing the wrong dry agent.

There used to be a time when, if a man
was stingy, his neighbors called him
stingy and let it go at that. Or if you
had a stomach-ache, you recognized it as
stomach-ache, and called it stomach-ache.

Not any more, however. Now the thing
to do is to call all these conditions com-
plexes, and let psycho-analysis do its
worst.

Don't say to yourself, " Well, my liver
is off again," and take a pill.

Sit down quietly, and dope it out.
" My condition," you should say, " is
down to a hysteria, which is due to a
libido, which is due to the repression of
a desire, which is due to its conscious
rejection, but also to its subconscious
persistence, which has settled in my
liver."

Then you can arise and
2tg Lisle "Bell g0 about your business,

refreshed and joyful.

If the grouch still persists, just blame
it on your grandmother, who wanted
twins but was prevented because she was
an old maid living in New England.

Specialists in analysis have a system
of getting results by mentioning a word,
and then timing to see how long it takes
for another word to come into your mind,
and what the other word is. Thus by
putting two and two together, they can
make fifty dollars.

If for example, the doctor says
" solid " and you say " silver," it means
you have a repressed desire for second
story work.

If he says " kiss " and you say
" Hookey," it's because you stayed out of
school one day when you were nine years
old because the teacher tried to kiss you.
He may advise you to go out and hug a
lamppost to get rid of the complex.

Should he murmur "June," and you
reply " Bug," doubtless you should have
been born a butterfly. You have missed
your vocation.

But if he says " wife " and you re-
spond " two," you'll have to draw your
own conclusions. If you're really
contemplating bigamy, remember that
no man can serve two masters. Even
psycho-analysis can't help you out of a
fix like that.

A grand opera tenor was asked to sing at a funeral the other day. " Who is to

" but if you'll bury a dozen of them I'll sing all day."

THE TATLER

Do It in Vaudeville

O HADES of Tony Pas-
*J tor and Koster &
Bial, what next? If you
have any particular stunt that you can
do, like playing a horse fiddle made out
of a dry-goods box and a piece of rope or
juggling a sawlog, an iron safe and a
feather at the same time, do it now and
do it in vaudeville.

The champion bean picker of Cayuga
county, New York, has worked his
stunt up into a vaudeville sketch with
only himself and beans in the cast. He
sits at his bean separator and differ-
entiates between the good and bad beans
by tossing the good beans out into the
audience and throwing the bad beans up
against the back-drop. He can pick
beans so fast that the rattle of beans
against the back-drop sounds like a
snare drum and he can play any tune
from " Yankee Doodle " to " Leave Me
with a Smile."

A woman out in Iowa has gone on the
stage recently. Her specialty is knit-
ting socks. She can knit a pair of socks
in full view of the audience in less time
than it takes the ordinary actor to jump
his contract and at the same time she
gives advice to the lovelorn, tells for-
tunes and locates missing articles. As

■5Bj> Roy K. SMoulton

an encore, she knits a
whole union suit in four
minutes with the Stars
and Stripes blazoned on the breast.

William Simms of Northern Michigan,
the champion milkist of that locality,
plans to go into vaudeville with his yel-
low plush cow, Winnie. He promises to
throw the milk into the mouth of any
crying baby in the audience — direct
from producer to consumer — and he has
a small papier mache house on the stage
which he sets afire and then puts the
fire out with the stream of milk. As he
sits beneath the dripping eaves of his
patient bovine, he also gives impersona-
tions of famous war heroes and whistles
" Listen to the Mocking Bird " between
his teeth.

In Tony Pastor's time, when he had
his first pastorate, the ultimate in vaude-
ville was given by the man who could
tear paper into fantastic designs in full
view of the audience and wear no mus-
tache to deceive. But vaudeville has im-
proved, as this article demonstrates. We
now have everything from trained scar-
letina microbes to Russian imperial
coui-t dancers. It remains for somebody
to introduce an educated monkey gland.

Vaudeville will stand for anything.

When the credulous newspaper person

" Miss De Vere is indisposed. In fact,
she is resting. Her mommer, Mrs. Hank
