A few words as to the turn style has taken: COATS are longer, but with even detail centered about emphasizing the high waist effect. Lapels are short and gracefully narrow.

In shoulders two types are pop ular the square military effect or the English sloping effect. WAISTCOATS are being made col larless, so as to avoid all possible surplus weight, and open low enough to make the most of the gorgeous shirt and neckwear creations of the Spring sea son.

BY JUNE CAPRICE. (Who stars in "A Modern Cinderella") Carefully hidden under the thrills of "A Modern Cinderella" is a lesson for every family. Every younger sister whoso hopes and longings are often crushed to give "big sister" a chance: every older sister, whose eagerness for advancement often becomes gross selfishness, and every mother and father whose concern for their first born often creates a heart-breaking neglect for their younger children should see this great William Fox photoplay. A Modern Cinderella" is not a ser mon. Its a William Fox motion nic- ture and contains all the love, intrigue and breath-taking action the phrase implies. But after the family leaves the theatre, and in the quiet of the home talks over the "movie," the fitness of this rollicking play of childhood to their own household will loom up. Joyce, the character I play in this film, is above all a carefree and mis chievous girl, trying haTd to be happy with the few little things she has. And Polly, isn't shs a well, typical big sister;- one who goes to all the hops, gets all the new clothes, and is shocked when little sister asks to go see the pictures with Johnny? men there is mother who Dushes her big girl forward at every oppor tunity, and poor, old, hard-working dad maybe a little henpecked who shows his sympathy for the little one and tries to fight her fights without "getting in bad" with ma. This is the picture of modern life which "A Modern Cinderella" reflects. I am sure many little sisters will feel much happier when they Bee that, af ter all, Joyce's bubbling spirit, aided by her mischievousness, wins Polly's beau. I am also sure that after big sister and mother see "themselves as others see" them, the baby of the fam ily will notice such a sudden change in their manner that she'll think her fairy godmother dropped in for a chat. And I'll bet old dad will chuckle when mother suggests that the youngster needs a new dress. FOR RENT SIGNS For sale at The Observer office. Plant Now Sweet Peaa.
