PAGE SIX MONROE TODAY Astrologer Traced Royalty In Star, She Got Queen Role The strong influence of rein- carnation seems to be taking a firm hold in the life of Alice Terry. Some time ago an astrologer told her that in her past incarna- tion she was none other than the fascinating Maria Louisa, wife’ of Napoleon Bonaparte. A short time later she was signed to play the leading femi- nine role, that of the Queen, in Vietor Seastrom’s production, “Confessions of a Queen,” the Metro - Goldwyn - Mayer picture, which shows at the Monroe Theatre today. All of her clothes were of the Empire period—the style adopted at the time of Napoleon. “The strangest thing happened,” says Miss Terry. “I have always though fortune telling, palm reading and casting horoscopes were merely a waste of time. But in a spirit of fun, with a friend, I did consult an astrologer and marveled at some of the things he told me about the past and present; things that actually did happen and are hap- Teally e- “So far as being the returned spirit of Louisa was concerned, } regarded that as pure bunk, and discarded it as soon as I heard it. However, when I tried on the clothes designed for the Seastrom picture I felt at ease and liked the style of them better than any I had previously worn. When Mrs. Chaffin, who had planned them for me, said: ‘You look like a picture I have of Maria Louisa, 1 confess I was a bit puzzled. I have never, during this picture, felt conscious of my clothes—they are as though they had grown on me. Still Iam not believing I am Louisa __reincar- nated, but I am so delighted with her type of clothes, the high- waisted models with long trains, I intend having some of my new evening gowns patterned af- terthem.” Lewis Stone, John Bowers, Eu- Besserer, Frankie Darro Joseph Dowling are among features with Miss Terry in “Confessions of a Queen.” This story was adapted to the screen by the director and Agnes Chris- tine Johnston from the famous ry by Alphonse Daudet, “Kings in Baile Labitsch, 33 Years Old, Already ‘An Old Mast ‘Dre name of Ernst Lubitsch has been identified for so long with Lubitsch fame started to reach this country years age with reports of the marvellous things he had been doing in Germany. But nearly all Americans have a Missouri complex and they had to be ‘shown. The showdown came with the American release of “Passion,” and “Passion” established the Lubitech quality. The young was recognized for what he is; not only the greatest of the European directors, but one who is unequalled in the world. Lubitsch was the first director to take historical backgrounds and make his characters live against them with the breath of vivid life instilled into every detail. “Pas- sion,” “Deception,” “Qne Arabian Night” and “The Loves of Pharoah” masterpieces of their sort. The promp and cireum- stanee and thrilling quality of these pictures led to the world- wide vogue of costume plays that continued long after Lubitsch had turned to new fields. When Lubitsch came to the United States three years ago un- der contract with the Warner Brothers, he was barely thirty, and “the subtle Lubitsch touch” that has made his comedy produc- tions a thing apart in motion pic- tures had scarcely been discern- ed by the many who had been swept by the tumultuous power of his historical pictures. In Holly- wood, a new Lubitsch was reveal- ed; the Lubitsch of frothy light- nest, of sparkling gaiety, of deft comedy; the Lubitsch Mafriage Circle” and “Kiss Me Again.” And now, at thirty-three, Labitech seems about to enter on | a new chase. His latest picture, “Lady Windermere’s Fan,” adapt- | Wilde's brilliant | ed from Oscar comeédy, combines frothy lightness with. an undercurrent of the tumultuous power that is Labitsch’s own. roe Theatre tomorrow and Satur- day, has been greeted everywhere as the most important picture of | many seasons; the one picture that everyone who loves the screen must see. f “The | ee oe ee ee * WORLD NEWS IN BRIEF * * tee ee eee eee eee e (By Associated Press) Sales on the New York Stock’ Exchange in second day of violent decline break all records. ee The Countess of Cathcart, fail- ing to surrender at the end of ten days days leave on bond in New York, says “it would take several strong men to put me out of this country. s * # General Pershing, with all teeth extracted, recovers from illness that brought him back from Arica, Chile; physicians oppose his re- turn to South America. * x * Texas representatives Wurz-! bach, Republican, and Garner Democrat, dssai! federal patronage in south as corrupt; Garner holds President Coolidge responsible. ss 8 General council of Presbyterian and refoumed churches expect na- tional merger in Atlantic City: endorse prohibition and appeal to publie not to buy liquor. se 8 Representative Tinkham, Massa- chusetts, assails churches as seek- ing political power via prohibition. - 6% Kuominehun party, defending Peking, loses two battles on three major fronts; four transports and three warships reach Tientsin where American troops are sta- tioned. et ee San Francisco police hunt ma- niac after two women are attacked and strangled.
