with the company, each one was sup

the completion of their work for the
Lasky-Paramount production, went on
to New York to fill an engagement
with a leading cafe.
Many were the adventures which
befell Sessue Hayakawa and his

Mr. Hayakawa, his director, Marshall

corps of assistants and several
American members of the company,

BIJOU ANNOUNCES EXTRAORDI
NARY THRILLER.
The Bijou announces the latest and
greatest Helen Holmes railroad thrill
er serial,, beginning nevt Friday,
when this great dare-devil, "The Dar
ling of the Rails," comes in the
opening chapter, of a fifteen episode
serial, "The Railroad Raiders."
Miss Helen Holmes, who is starred
in the new chapter play, is the most,
famous "railroad star" in tne worm
. I since her popularity in "The Girl and
sithe Game," "A Lass of the Lumber
lisnris" "Whispering Smith,", and
S I other dramas of the rail, has a bet
ter chance -4o . display ner . exiraoiui
nary talents . in ?The Railroad Raid
ers," than" in any previous play m
which she-has appeared.
The story of "The Railroad Raid
ers" was written by Frank H. Spear
man, foremost railroad novelist of
the world. Its plot involves the pur
suit and breaking up of a band of
1 onnanirators preying upon ranroaus
under the direction - of shrewd and
daring heads. , The ways and means
(of the secret service in running the
I 1 zT-th nrnvide dramatic op-
portunities of which Miss Holmes is
' not slow to avail herself.

You, can't always tell by the way
they're dressed. The longest crepe
veil doesn't make the mournfulest
widow nor the . whitest satin the hap-j
piest bride.
I know a German rooming house
keeper in New York who is very pro
Prussjan, yet her house flies one of
the largest American flags in the
vicinity. "Her roomers clubbed to
gether and bought it, and she didn't
dare refuse them permission to hang
it from her brownstone front..
All the shop windows are full of
patriotic apparel these days." To top
the list are - parasols made of red,
white and blue ribbojis, some radiat
ing' from . the center, while on others
the ribbon stripes run around. One
blue parasol is sprinkled with silver
stars and has a red, white and blue
border. White parasols are embroid
ered with red, white and blue stars
or bordered in the tricolor. Parasols
like these are bound to attract rather
than keep off native suns.
Next are tho patriotic bonnets. A

red and blue.
A close turban of red, white and
blue straw has an enormous pompom
of the three colors set at a perky
angle in front and another lovely
white straw garden hat has a wreath
of poppies, daisies and corn flowers.
Then there, are boas of tricolors,
pleated maline collar and cuff sets of
silk and linen banded in red, white
and blue, handkerchiefs bordered in
the same, and even white kid and
silk gloves with red, white and blue
stitching.
Conceits in patriotic purses are le
gion and legion also are those fair
ones who are eager to carry the col
ors when thus embodied in a bag.
Some are made of alternating strips
of red, white and blue ribbon finished
with a tassel of red, white and blue.
Others are crocheted of silks in the
three colors or even beaded in strips
or designs of flags and stars. White
leather handbags have flags em
bossed or stamped in colors, on their
sides and white moire or faille bags
have the flags embroidered or beaded
on them.
There are red, white and blue
striped sport shirts and red, white
and blue striped sweaters and every
feminine frill and furbelow in the
three colors that you can mention.
Between you and me, however, these
three colored things look much better
in the shop windows and are in
heap better taste so placed than on
the heads, hands and hearts of our
American maids.
You don't have to get yourself up
like an American flag and make ai
noise like an American eagle to show j
you have the best interests of your
country at heart during this time-of I
stress and war.
If you really feel that clothes make
the man or in this case the women,
if you are convinced there is a psy
chological connection between your
inmost emotions and .your outward
apparel then don your last season's
clothes with a good heart and don't
waste good money on this season's

helping the allies since all the Ital

money in and are peddling war em
blems these days instead of bananas.
Otherwise if you really want to help
your country, don't dress the part
but act it. Carry a hoe instead of a
red, white and" blue parasol and wear
a red cross instead of, a red, white
and blue hat.
The American girl who is "white,"
true blue and well read, doesn't need
to drape herself in an American flag
to show her true colors.

brought by intensive experiment, is
well exemplified in "The Railroad
Raiders."
The spectacle of an express train
rushing through the night at 60-mile
speed, lights aglow throughout its
sinuous length, is one that grips the
imagination, and in "The Railroad
Raiders" trains pass each other in
the night frequently enough to ful
fill the exigencies of the plot which
calls for the boarding of trains by
Miss Holmes and her cohorts of the
service at all sorts of obscure moun
