¥ Cowgirls 9 Celebrated and stir hid- s of human fecl- Comment, 5 3 INCE O’NEIL, empress emofiO'n in ‘and Saturday Eve. !’9 20, 30, 60s: NINE COWBOYS AND COWGIRLS, KEENEY'S Ameng the meritorious aects at Keeney's this week, the Nine Cowboys and Cowgirls stands out conspicuous- 1y. This is a novelty with a disting- tively western flavor and it makes a strong appeal to theatergoers seeking something new for their entertain- ment. It is to discriminating play lovers of this sort that Keeney's show makes its best bid this week, The managemeiit is offering a collection of superior specialties, all of which are of a tvpe different from that usually seen here. F\ery act on the program has seme feature that emphasizes its originality and newness. The patrons of the theater'have enjoved thae bill and the applause given at every per- formance testifies fully to their ap- preciation. Besides the cowpunchers there are a number of other entertainers who rank high in their chosen profession. Prominent among them is Minnie De- Weese and her clever canine, “‘Cuba.” Miss DeWeese is a talented musician and is also a comedienne of first class, She plays cleverly on both the violin and banjo, winning special praise for her eccentric manipulations of both instruments. Her dog is a strong con- tributer to the fun wiich attends her act. . The animal' is a‘ real’ canine humorist and his’ ‘amusing pranks oreate much laughter daily. Mintz and Palmer have a song and conversation specialty that gives com- nlete satisfactlon and the Bannons appear in-a club juggling novelty that 'l is without question the best act of its kind ever given here. ese peo- ple are probably the biggest applause getters on the program. “‘His Last Race,” a highly dramatic playlet, is presented by Ellsey Ottke and eompany. The piece is well con- structed and has many points that commend it strongly. Featirea on the Keeneyscope pro- gram tonight will be The = Pathe Weekly. The reel this week contains many good war pictures besides de- pleting important ’lappenlnss in the United States. WAR SCENES, LYCEUM SATURDAY-SUNDAY- The war pictures to be shown at the Lyceum on Saturday and Sunday eve- nings are of the greatest interest be- cause it will be the first time an op- portunity has- come to New '‘Britain people to see as it werg some of the actual occurences in the present Eu ropeah 'conflict. ' Reports of the varl ous battles have béen published in the newspapers and the people have éag- erly read them, but in the pictures they will be able to see a reproduc- tion of ‘actual warfare as it is conduct- ed today; the battles, how: they are waged, haw the men act, ' huw the wounded are cared for and what is done with ‘the dead.

SCENE Another Fox' production extraordi- nary, “Princess Romanoff,” based on Sardou’s unforgettable “Fedora,” with Nance O'Neil, is coming to William urday. In this production . Nance (’Neil has scored what will probably be considered as the greatest triumph c<f her dramatic career. version she rose to heights that no other actress succeeded in doing: Ir the film version she has actually out done her previous bids for public pop-~ | vlarity and brought the screen drama into vivid, clear-cut prominence, de- veloping the character of the revenge- ful love,racked princess as it her audience fairly gasping for breath 25 the plot moves into the climax. It! was no idle phrase that named Nance O’Neil, the foremost emotional actress ¢f America. The stage may claim her as a marvel of the footlights but the o Taffeta packets with chiffon, ba- tiste or net skirts are modish. Many of the jauntiest among the new little coats in silk are of solid dark blue, or blue striped with a pale line of another color, or. vice versa. Paequin evidences a liking for stripes in a taffeta jacket of darkest blue, pin- lined with cream. It has a slender effect above the hips, for, from the side of the coat —it actually js the bodice of the cus- tume—the seams run to a point at { the back center of the walst, while i the fronts’ slanted sharply from the bust line joining, make short but defi- nite points at either hip. Blhow sleeves and a reverless, deep V neck, help out the rather sketchy appear-~ ance of the jacket, which tops a skirt in yellow chiffon. Clusters of tucks trim the skirt at the knees and agaln near the ankles, below which a hem does not come, since a series i of points takes its place. These points i'fail to surprise any one familiar with of fashion, but a blue taffeta rose near the left knee looks as though it had accidentally caught there when I'ox’s local theater tomorrow and Sat- | In the stage ! hase never been shown before, and leaving ! 1 It Has Elbow Sleeves and Reverless Deep V' Neck Which Gives It Fine Appearance—Skirt Should Be of Yellow Chiffon. y {under a flower clusfer. i motion picture world goes.one better, and idealizes her, Briefly, the story is one of Russian intrigue, love and thrilling romance. Loris Ipanoff, finding his wife, who has committed suicide, is false to him, Lills her betrayer. The _latter is Vladmir Boroff, an army officer, who becomes bethrothed to Fedora. The vincess follows Loris to New York, tent on handling the slayer of her lover over to justice. They meet and ¥edora falls in love with him. She learns the reason why he slew Boroff, in, the meantime, men hired by the Faugsian authorities Me in wait to kill Loris as he leaves Fedora's roomas. She sacrifices her honor to save him, prevents him from leaving, and in a ?pmm of remorse for the Judas part she has played, takes poison. She is saved from the consequences of her rash act' by physicians summoned by Zorig and everything ends happily. Many of Jauntiest of Taffeta Jackets are of Solid Dark Blue thrown at the costume. But no de- tail of a Parisian creation is ever ac- cidental. . Beer’s taffeta- and Uanspflrent ma- terial costume has a jacket whichs is even more sketchy than is Paquin’s, since the dark blue silk garment bare- ly touches the waist line at back and at sides, and its elbow sleeves consist of three ruffles matching a cream- hued batiste skirt. A high-rolling hatiste. collar, crossing the back of the little coat, absolutely ignores its pointed fronts, which join at the bust Akin to a girdle, although it dees not encircle the waist, is a narrow. band of blue taffeta, dropping as a sash from under the left side of the jacket and ending below the hips with a flower cluster. Applications of embroidery form a series of deep Van Dycks upon the skirt, whose edge repeats the point idea, and between these trimmings are circles and irregular motifs in ap- plique. So low does the skirt dip at the sides that, seeing it for the first time, one wonders if it can have been carefully adjusted. NOT TO INTERN EVERY MALE ALIEN ENEMY Great Britain, It Is Understoed, Will Take No New Measure Against Naturalized Germans., London, May 13, 4:15 a, m.—"It s not likely even now that the gov- i ernment will take the bold course of jlnternmg every male enemy alien of military age,” says the Times, which declares the cases will be considered ‘on their merits and it is understqod | that no new measures will be taken vngtln!t naturalized Germans and Austrians. | “The position of many of these men, | some highly placed, is the crux of a new situation with which the nation {is' confronted,” says the Times. “Changes in law would be neceded to i diseriminate against those who ure ‘lesnlly British citizens, and the gov- ernment does not intend to introduce {any fresh legislation on this sub- ject.” The Times published today the names of a considerable number of prominent Germans. who have wri ten to express their abhorrence of German methods of warfare and their devotion to the land of their adop- tion.

I quote it because it is the kind of criticlsm that makes me ine dignant, “She likes the men pretty well?” And why shouldn't she? Doesn’t every normal girl? Sex attraction Is ome of nature's first laws, It is as inevitable for a young girl to be drawn toward young men as for the lark to sing in the ‘morning or the bud to open into the rose. To think of nothing else but the opposite sex is, of course, wrong And to show this attraction too plainly is foolish because that is to defest one’s own ends, but 1 do not dislike the girl who does it any more than I do the pedantic, abnormal girl who pretends to have no interest in the other sex, very likely in order to cover up the fact that they have nie interest in her, The Woman Who Said She Wanted a Husband, T know a woman who always said frankly (even at a time when men did not seem to be attracted to her), “I like men. I'm wsorry they are not attracted by me. I hope to marry some time. 1 want te kmow love and marriage and motherhod just as I want to experienes friendship and the joy of work and everything else that makes a rounded life. If I not married by the time I am thirty-three, 1 am going into a community where there are not more women than men, and where I shall have more chanece of finding my mate.” Of course she did not go round saving this to casual acquaintances, only to people who might understand. She was not bold, she loved her Work and she had many interests outside her interest in the other sex, but she wasn't afraid to admit that, too—and I, for one, respect her for it, Putting “Woman's Only Business” Above Business, We were talking about a girl who has refused to accept a good busi ness opportunity which would take her to anether city, “She doesn want to lose her chance to get Richard,” said one young married wom with the scorn they are so apt to feel toward the maneuvers they recentl) practised themselves, “Oh, .1 should hate rather admires the girl, But why should she hate to think«that? Why, why, wiy? ! Richard is:at the “almost” stage. He is a mate worth having. Wy i shouldn’'t the danger of losing nim be a factor in making this girl want to go away? to think that,” said an older . woman who More Criticisms That “Rile” Me, “She’s always think about a goed time.” “She loves admiration.” “She’s’ pretty, but she kiows it.” These are other criticisms of young girls that arouse y ire, Of course, she’s always think about a good time. A young person who wasn’t would be as unnatural as a young person with the stoop and pallor of age, Of course, she likes admiration. 1f she is willing to pay too dearly f it, that's one thing, but to like it, that's another, and a perfectly normal state of affairs. Of course, she knows she's pretty. Hasn't she eyes and a mirror? She needn’'t think of nothing else and she neéed not act conscious of it all the time, but unless she’'s a fool she can’t help knowing It-—and being proud of it. Many criticisms are sharper criticisms of those who speak them than of those against whom they are directed, and these seém- to me to be ems phatically of that class. - Creamed Asparagus on Toast—Take two bunches of fresh asparagus, boil in salted water for about ten minutes, then take it up and put into a sauce- pan ‘with a pint of milk, one finely rainced onion, a bunch of herbs and a minced lettuce leaf. Cook together for twenty minutes, take up the aspar- agus, and add to the mixture in the stewpan two tablespoonfuls of but ter and same of flour, that has been | fried together without browning. Stir until it boils, thén add a gill of thick cream mixed with the volks of three eggs. Cook until thick then run through a sieve, reheat. Place tho asparag on toasted bread, pour the sauce oyver it and serve at once. Strawberry Dumplings—Mix togeth er a pint of flour, a half teaspoinful of salt and one teaspoonful and & half of baking powder then rub in two heaping tablespoonfuls of. butter. Mix to a soft dough with milk and roll out half an inch thick. Cut in rounds the size of a saucer; on each lay six or cight berries. Draw the edges lo- gother and pinch firmly. Lay close together in a greased pan and steain for twenty-five minutes. Stand in the oven for a moment to slightly dry the tops, then serve with a hard sauge into which has been beaten as many | pulped berries as can be added with- out curdling the mixture.
