For many years Theodore Roberts 3..
yielded the honor of his name in
electric lights to slick-haired heroes
and hurled-haired fiappors whu. ch.
public has acclaimed him the actual
star of many picturts.
In "Grumpy" Roberts has his trot
legitimate opportunity to make the
picture on his own. And what a pic.
turo he makes of it! Grumpy, as
Robert: plays the role. is probably
the ‘ruoet clearly etched clnsactor
the screen has even seen.
Any of our foremost character
actors could have made the figure o!
the irasclble old criminal lawyer an
interesting one. but I doubt if any
other actor of the screen could have
made it as vital, as unforgottablo as
Roberts has.
Also I doubt it Roberts would
have been as oflective under any
other director as he was under Wil-
liam DeMillo. William DoMiiie is the
only director in the business. as far
as I know. who believes that a
player may have judgment and per.
ception as sound and keen as his
own. It is evident in “Grumpy"
that Roberts' interpretation Ml un-
hampered by the director.
Clara Beranger'e scenario of the
play retains all its sprightly humor.

Douglas MacLean is becoming one
of the leading funsters of the screen.
Heretofore he has been ineflective
bcause he tried to be funny every
moment he was upon the screen. In
"Bellboy 13” he brings his wit to
beer on certain
humorous emphasis
episodes. Thus he. consciously or
unconsciously, is patterning » after

FANCY VOILES
Drop-stitch voile makes some of
the most charming frocks for sum-
mer. It comes in the most; fascinat-

nothing but a girdle. and perhaps
white collars and cuffs to trim it.
SHORT BOLERO.
The short bolero is often the an-
swer to the jacket problem with the
three-piece costume. It is charming
on tall women and small ones. but
rather unkind to the women accum-
ulating pounds.

STOCKINGS.
One wonders how sheer stockings
can grow shearer. but they do. And
some of them wear surprisingly well,

and gray continue to be popular with
pumps of satin or patent leather.

now. tied directly in front after the

are now dominating the fashionable

silk braid. arranged side by side to

was sure you would find as you did
that her Mine. was more a case of
selfishness and a desire to have you
entirely to herself. You know I tried
to persuade you when you got the tele-
gram that this we; so. But you, as s
dutiful daughter felt you must return
home only to find that my prognosti-
cntious were perfectly correct.

and Iaoiie Hamilton. between a. man
whose ancestors have been statesmen.

to the daughter of a man whose early
years were spent amid the sweet of a

of John and Isslie was very beautiful.

I did not tell her. my dear Prisoy.
