The man on the other hand is capable of generalizing the beauty of the whole sex as such. The same thing applies to men and men’s clothes—I could never design them!” “Do you think that feminism will tend to masculinize women'’s clothes?” was my next venture. Strong For Sex In Clothes. “Oh, dear me, no,” and his voice rose emphatically, with the waltz's crescendo, ‘for if it does there will not be any feminism. I am most strongly for sex in clothes and the sex appeal is after all one of _the | greatest assets we have in life. ~Why not keep it strongly marked? ‘“The lines of a man’s body are quite different from those of a woman’s, 80 there can be no comparison, even af clothing.

And they succeeded, First of all they emgaged Frank Daniels, the greatest comedian of this generation, the man who has probably made more people laugh than ony,other human being They knew his capabilities and the kind of humor that motion pictures had been waiting for. They nad Paul West write the plot especial- ly to Frank Daniels’ measure—to bring out to the limit his inimitable ability. They gave Daniels the cream of Vitigraph support. The result is «“Crooky” which will be featured at Keeney’s theater tonight and ‘tomor- row. *Crooky” is the first departure from the stage to the screen of Frank Daniels and it is the triumph of his carcer.

And Julian Eltinge” —=a chord finished his sentence. Men’s Clothes for Women, “Do not misunderstand me though’ he continued, “I do not for an in- stant mean to imply that women should go on to the golf course with a sleeveless chiffon gown; but men’'s clothes for women,”—and this time a shudder implied his meaning. ‘“What type of woman do you cons sider most beautiful?” “Women,” sald he with a merry laugh, “are a matter of taste, just as foods are- Some like them highly seasoned—some do not.” We paused to watch four girlish figures pirouett- ing before us. ‘“Perhaps the most beautiful woman to me is the new type of American girl, real Ameri- can girl, mind you, we see walking down Fifth Avenue on a cold win- ter's: morning tailored suited and fur clad. She has long lines, health and a spring in her step that perhaps no other woman in the world has.” Disfiguring Human Forms. Then he talked of the disfiguring of the human form, of how all great women artists discover their best point and make the most of it, of A 42-piece set of dishes are given away absolutely free at every perfor- mance. EDGAR ALLEN POE’S WORKS, AT FOX’S The ancient fable of two antagonis- tic spirits imprisoned in one body, equally powerful and having the com- vlete mastery by turns—of one that is to say, inhabited by both a devil and an angel—seems to have been realized if all we hear is true, in the character of the extraordinary man, Edgar Al- len Poe, writes N.

The silk was ttwo dollars a yard and the lace five. All my friends think it is stunning. But every time I put it on he wants isn't fit to be seen. That's his way of showing he daesn’t like it. Men are so queer about women’s clothes,” she concluded with a sigh. If “queer” means different from women (which of course it does mean since the accusation came from a woman and “queer” always means “dif- ferent from me”), men certainly are queer about wamen’'s clothes. Men Don't Know Styles. In the first place, to the average man style doesn't mean much. He is just as apt to admire a dress that is five years out of date as the lat- cst thing, more so if the latest thing is ugly or unbecoming. Color and becomingness are the two big factors in women’s from a man’s point of view—whether he knows it or not. Most men love bright calors. I don’t mean flashy colors, but colors like pink, blue or yellow in distinction to greys and mauves and browns. Pink, a children’s trained nurse tells me, is the psychological calor for children. All the graduates wear pink because children respond to it most quickly. 1 have noticed that most .men’s eyes light up at the sight of a pink gown. After all, what else are they but big children? They Have No Idea What Clothes Cost. Men seldom recognize costliness or the absence of clothes. Almost every woman has heard her husband say, “There’s a dress you look well in. Why don’t you wear that oftener?” of some pink or blue cotton morning gown, while he ignores the lace creation that would buy twenty pink cotton gowns. Most men prefer fluffy ruffles to plain tailored effects, just as they are more quickly attracted by the fluffy ruffles girl. They have enough plain 'tailoredness in their own clothes, poor things. Men sometimes admire striking clothes but usually on some other man’s wife. They don’'t mind their women folks being started ‘at because they are pretty or beautifully dressed, but they aren't ken about having them make a deliberate bid for attention by striking clothes.

This year the fair will be conducted night and day and in arranging the programs special at- the seeds readily separate, then press ' tention has been given with this inno- vation specially in view. The fire- works display will be the finest ever held in the state. The Connecticut Fireworks company has designed spe- cial program for each evening. An- other element of the night display will be the electrical decorations on the grounds. Contractors are now wiring the grounds for the fair. The special interest in the horse racing program of this vear lies in the fact that the first races of the state stake races will be held here. The entries are numerous and many new horses will be seen. The track at Brlin is fast and the turn near the starting wire has been the scene of many thrilling spills. Departmental exhibits will be bet- ter than ever. The corps have been excellent and the management has al- ready received assurances of feature displays, indicating that they will be better than ever. Live stock exhibits will be on a par with the usual high order of excel- lence which has marked this fair as specially distinctive. Special efforts are being made to increase the ex- hibit of the farm machinery. Me- chanical geniuses have produced use- ful and interesting machines for the farm in late years.
