However. although peace has.come and most of us have settled back into the humdrum bf everyday life, Elsle Janis has not forgotten those “won- | derful boys,” but has taken as many of them as possible under her wing and called them “her gang.” None of them was a professional actor before, but Flsie savs the soldier-actor is onc of the finest combinations produced by the war, and all who witnessed the enthlsiasm of their performance at the National Theater will certainly concur. It seems almost trivial to mehtion gowns in connection with a star who toured the French, British and Amer- ican fronts in a simple blue serge suit and. wore an evening gown only three times during the entire six months.

A few sea- sons ago soclety welcomed her be- cause ghe came from an old and di tinguished family, but by a few years of hard work she has again forced their recognition of her in a new ca- pacity, one attained by her own ef- forts. She is a real actress, and is enthuslastic to the nth degree about the stage and everything in general. “Of course, it's been rather hard she told the writer, “but then anything that's worth while is worth the effort, and it surely has its com- pensations. I've always adored dra- | matic work, ever since I can remem- ber: something to do, and I like doing things. Miss Bankhead said she chose her gowns principally for their colors and they were unusually effective, al- though almost classically simple. In the first act she wore a deep amethyst crepe gown: in the second her frock was of burnt orange; the model sketched was of white Canton trim- med only with self-material roses, and her last appearance was in a brown duvetyn frock bordered with fur. Adelaide's gown, which is pictured, was a combination of bright orange velvet and georgette, with deep bands of luxurious black fur as trimming. ‘The velvet bodice tapered to a “V” at the front which was supported by a beaded necklace, and the set-in sleeves were of georgette, opened from the shoulder with one long slash, and cuffed with fur.

Its coloring, staging. costuming and musical settings have ‘| come in for no end of praise, but the sensational ballet and bacchanale de- vised and staged by Michel Fokine, creatdr of the Russian ballet, is said to stand out as the culminating tri- umph of ‘stage genius. ‘The scene of the ballet represents — an . old Egyptian -palace, with a series of stairs rising to distanj heights.
