As the scenes were laid in a tiny New England village, where elec-, tricity and all its improvements were | as yet uhknown. and where nnes1 frocks were purchased at the “gen- eral store,” there were no startling | costumes. However, Miss Field, in | her role of Mary, stenographer to Isidore Solomon, wore several tai- lored frocks which were both effective and becoming. The one selected for illustration was her last-act costume, | @ one-piece navy tricotine dress, with | luxurious squirrel collar and cuffs as trimming. Large black buttons ex- tended the entire length of the gown | at the front, and a narrow tassel- | finished belt tied in a2 bow at one| pleated collar and caffs. The sketch at Keith's entitled “Hereafter” was_unique, interesting and furprising. We are all endowed with more or less curiosity regard- ing the future, and a decidedly novel conception of it is submitted to us in this playlet. Miss Doris Sheerin, the leading lady, instead of being ' robed in white, with the conventional wings and harp as accessories. wore the gown pictured, which was of black georgetee, and probably.a Paris importation, since she could have anything desired, merely for the ask- ing. The bodice included kimono sleevelets, and at the back three long tasseled cords served as trim- ming. The skirt was slashed in points over a plain foundation, and the tas- sels which finished each point gave a fringed edge to the skirt hem which was particularly effective.

Miss Curtis, who, by the way, is| one of the very few woman picture | producers, has purchased the rights | to several best sellers, and has chosen for her- mext production a famous| povel by England's foremost author- psychologist. She plans to enter upon immediate production, for release through Aseoglated irst National Pic- | tures, Tac. It is said that a promi- | nent New York society woman who recently made her professional debut on the screen will appear in the lead- ing feminine role. A representative of Miss Curtis is now in Washington in conference with a number of Washingtonians who have been especially -interested in bringing a permanent cinema produc- | ing unit to the District. Miss Curtis is one of the few wom lflalflnd in “The Chink"”; Tuesday and : en in the history of the moving pic™ ture industry who has actively di- rected a picture producing company. Stars and other women own their companies, but their connection with executive affairs is seldom as inti- mate as that of Miss Curtis. “The Sky Pilot” is still remembered by those who gasped at the thrilling cat- tle stampede on the screen at Cran- dall's Metropolitan last spring. It grew out of the whim of this New York society girl. who became inter- | ested, while ranching in Arizona, in the picture business. So fond of it has she become, and so convinced is] she that it offers an unlimited field | for the profgssional woman, that she expresses a serious doubt that she will ever desert it. “Cathrine Curtis." says a cotem- porary writer, “impresses one's ad- mirations deeply. She is the ideal modern business woman—fresh and breezy of personality. thoroughly en- gaging and interesting. practical and sincere. She is wholesome and gen- ine, and a direct challenge to thos ho would bar women from business. Capability is written all over her at tractive, smartiy gowned self, and the comfortzble feelinz with which one is made to approach her remains as one talks with her.
