Clothes so far as Norma' Shearer
is concerned are only a matter of
comfort. Motion picture actresses
are constantly on so-called '"dress
parade appearing in their various
screen roles, so the idea otnartng"
A new dress does not give them
the-tinkling thriir that new ap
parel -gives almost every woman
id the world. In shopping for
clothes. Miss Shearer's first con
sideration is not for the thriving
ly new but for that which is com
fortable and expressive of her per
sonality. In the following article

"A Slave of Fashion," which Ho-
bart Henley directed for Metro

"Sports clothes are my favorite
type, Chiefly I think because I
am' dressed up so much of " the
time on the screen that sport wear
offers a pleasing contrast. ;
"I am glad It fs an established
fashion fact that long sleeves are
coming in again, for i do not agree
with .'the general idea that 'short
sleeves are more comfortable than
long nes. Short sleeves give one
a bar and rather untidy feeling

makes for comfort. Long sleeves
made loosely, of course, and pre
ferably with a tight -entf, give n
as much freedom as desired and a
real sense of being dresstd.

ed admiration for a contralto voice
which 'seems to enrich Itself with
each appearance of the artist pos
sessing it.
Three Schubert numbers and
two from Brahma introduced Miss
Tartar to her audience as musi
cian in 'top form." Miss Tartar
sang the exultant strains of Schu
bert's "Hark, Hark, the Lark,"
with "vibrant Control. More lang
uorously rich was the second'Schn-
bert song, "Thy Sweet Repose."
Following the singing of "Cour:

Swallow." was heard. Miss Tartar,
as : the obliging artist she is, re

plause of the audience demanded.
For pure lyrical power, the "Sap-
