CUN UL CAPITOL GETS NORMA SHEARER IN “DIVORCEE’ "Brolhers"_Slarring Lytell Will Be Shown for Last Times This Evening With “Brothers,” starring = Bert Lytell, showing at the Capitol the- ter for the st times tonight, The Divoree with Norma Ehear- er in the leading role, will be pre- nted at the popular playhouse tomorrow night. Start of filming “The Divorcee” was marked by a strange coincidence in the mattor of an important scene in the pi ture in which Conrad Nagel drives an automobile over an ocmbank- ment, overturning the car and nning Helene Millard, Tyler Brooke and Helen Johnson under- neath. On the night before this scene was to be taken, director Rcbert Z. Leonard wrecked his big touring car, sustained severe cuts and bruises, but escaped serious injury by falling to the flcor <f his machine as it swerved over an embankment after being side-swip- | ed by a heavy bus. Escaped With Bruises His wife, Gertrude Olmstead, also escaped with slight bruises. In the morning Leonard went to the stu- dio and directed a replica of the accident in which he had figured the evening before. And as though this were . not enough hard luck for one pic- ture, in a subsequent, scene, in which Tyler Brooke imitates an organ-grinder, the actor stumbled and fell, sustaining several cracked ribs, which necessitated a trip to the hospital. Well-Known Cast The cast of “The Divorcee” in- cludes Chester Morris, Conrad; Na- gel, Florence Eldridge, Montgomery, Helene Millard, Rob- ert Elliott, Mary Doran, Tyler Brooke, Zelda Sears, George Iry- .ing and Helen Johnson.

C.—(Special | Correspondence) — An opportunity to impart a little information on Alaska was recently afforded Mrs. James Wickersham. While attend- {ing a bridge party at the Arlington | Hotel, given to aid the enlargement (of the hospital at Ketchikan, Al- | aska, one of the players inquired jwhether the Congressman from Al- !aska was an Eskimo. This resulted [in considerable controversy and !when it was learned that Mrs. Wickersham was a resident of the North the question was referred to | her. She admitted that the Dele- ‘gme was her husband, and hot an Eskimo, and °‘then gave quite {an interesting talk about the na- tive people of the north and of | their habits and professions.

SUMMER THE SEASON OF MUSICAL ACCOMPLISHMEN ous European critic was once asked how it was that, in Europe music study seemed to proceed at a far more liesurely pace than in America—European music teachers man- aged to accomplish a surprising amount of work. He was un- able to explain the reason. It often happens that American students do not in some instance progress as regularly as many European students. Our musical education facilities, on the other hand, are often superior to those of other countries. The truth is that whatever lack there may be in progress in America Is due very largely to the tragically wasteful American habit of discontinuing music study in summer. The study of an instrument is dependent for its success upon continual practice. Puplls leave the teacher in fine shape in June (sometimes, alas, in May) only to return after a summer of indolence in Septem ber or October, with a loss in efficiency of about 50 per cent of the work of the previous year. This loss in our musical educa- tional system must run well into milions of dollars every year. This is altogether senseless and wholly unnecessary. In fact, summer of all seasons of the year, is one of the best for music study because:— 1, Most families rarely take more than two weeks vacation in summer; 2, Moreover summer is the time when, because of the ab- sence of other studies, the child can accomplish the most in music; } ; 3. Weather conditions are better and there are fewer inter- uptions from sickness in summer. (This is particularly the case with vocal students). 4. The climate even at its worst rarely makes practice im- possible; 5. Music is so delightfully taught these days that study in the summer is welcomed by normal children. 6. Many great metropolitan music schools have proved over and over again that music study may be conducted in summer classes with unlimited success; 7. Only a few years ago millions of dollars of College &nd University equipment were wasted in July and August. Now summer schools form a vital part of most academic programs. Take advantage of the summer to allow your children to make «double the progress. Cooperate with your music teacher, and continue your studies during the summer months.
