One of New York’s maddest mil
liners held a showing the other day
of the new fall modes in hats. As
a result, you may hear of a new
discovery In movies, soon.
Anna May Wong went to the
showing. So did Sylvia Sidney. One
of the models didn’t appear, and at
the last minute a girl named Kath
erine Learning, the milliner’s recep
tion clerk, had to step In and fill
the gap.
She looks like Julia Haydon, and
was so charming that she was the
hit of the show. News of things
like that gets around fast In movie-
dom, and with new faces always In

up to make pictures in a hurry.

stories as his first one. It will be
railed — probably — “Professional Sol

set to make movies. He started
some time ago with shorts, and now
he's going to appear in a long one,
“Radio Jamboree." Here's hoping
he returns to the air; his voice was
one of the loveliest of those that
keep people home at nights to listen
to the radio.
He worked his, way through col

played In an orchestra In Little

also worked. He made his debut
In New York as a member of Roxy’s

aprons to deposit on the site here.
The mound is 1,000 feet high and
Is crowned with a large granite
block marked “To Kosciuszko.”
Kosciuszco’s tomb is in a vault
of the Cathedral of Cracow, a na
tional sanctuary for Polish kings
and heroes. A silver coffin, that of
Stanislaus, the patron-saint of Po
land, stands in the middle of the
church, and near one of the chapels
Is a great crypt containing the
ashes of the greatest Polish poet,
Adam Mickiewlez.
The cathedral and the other
churches of Cracow are particular
ly worth a visit by the tourist on
religious festivals, especially Cor
pus Christi day. At this time girls
dressed in white and blue carry
gaily colored Images of Mary from
church to church, and the entire
city turns out for the processions.
The most interesting monument
of Cracow, Poland, to Americans
is the great mound of earth which
the entire Polish nation built to
the memory of Kosciuszko who
served as Washington's adjutant
during the Revolutionary war, notes
a writer In the Chicago Daily News.
Kosciuszko also fought tor the
independence of Poland and after How Dandyism Came Into

It was Beau Brummel who gave
roes. From all over the country
peasants came bringing earth in dandyism Its great vogue, though
It existed before his day. About
the middle of the Eighteenth cen
tury the Macaroni club was found
ed. This was a band of young men
of rank who had visited Italy and
sought to Introduce the southern
elegance of manner and dress into
England. Their costume Is de
scribed as "white silk breeches,
very tight coat and vest, with enor
mous white neckcloths, white silk
stockings, and diamond-buckled, red
heeled shoes." For some time the
moving spirit of the club was
Charles James Fox. It was with
the advent of Brummel, however,
that the cult of dandyism became a
social force.

Mary Pickford, arriving recently in
New York on business connected
with United Artists, announced that
she was married to a picture com

that as soon as her divorce from

she'll become Mrs. Buddy Rogers.

Will Rogers certainly likes excite
ment, and his motion picture bosses
wish he didn’t. Now he wants to
go with Wiley Post on Post's flight
around the world, and since he's

offices in theaters where his pic
tures are shown, the makers of
those pictures would like It a lot

Myrna Loy’s quarrel with Metro
is likely to bring good luck to Rosa

working her way toward the top.
She looks a good deal like Myrna
Loy, and has done very well indeed
with the minor roles entrusted to
her. Now she Is to get bigger ones.

And the Loy-Metro quarrel was
also a help to Luise Rainer, who
got the Loy role In “Escapade,” op

exotic Myrna left the picture flat.
That’s one of the pictures that you
must see, If only to be able to re
mark later that you saw Rainer In
her first big American picture.
Meanwhile the battle between
Metro and one of its best screen
bets Is still on. Miss Loy gets star
billings and wants the salary she
feels should go with It The •*-
ecutives can't see things her way.
