Manager Ttobbin? this week has
managed to gather a number of act?
that are above the average. None
of them Is so transcendent as to
stand out of itself, but all are uni
formly entertaining. The offering
thi-s week provide? an evening of
solid amusement, ending with the
usual motion pictures of current
events.
There are an unusual number of
good singers. Among them Is Chief
Caupollcan. an Indian with a bass
volco of unusual power, and Mar
garet Ford, whose deep contralto
lent itself to the rendition of a
number of sentimental ballade hav

and ""aTniles."
Jay Clonili and Flo Lewis presented
a snappy little skit, "Holding tho

so strikingly as to be convincing. Be
fore him appear the spirits of tirant

modern romance which pictures Ed

most effective of patriotic photoplays
that have thus far been shown in

MRS. IRWIN PRAISES
WOMEN OF FRANCE
Advise? Imitating Them Now at
Before the War.
"We may well imitate the French
woman of today aa we did before
the war," said Inex Harne? Irwin,
at a meeting of the woman's parly
at their headquarters in Jackson
place, last night.
"She hit* always been a creature
of infinite charms, and her gowns,
fads and mannerisms have .?een of
great fascination to the American
woman. Her steadfastness, her brave
! cheerfulnesa of today are just as
j worthy of imitation."
. Mrs. Irwin, who has visited 1n
j France. knows the Frenchwoman
| well and haa detected the difference
? between the classes. Concerning the
:*l*?-.nes she said:
, "The middle class Frenchwoman is
? very different from her sister of the
! so-called aristocratic class. She h;is
? more independence. In fact, she is
? usuai!y the chief partner in the busi
} ncss In which her husband plays the
?smaller part. Take the ki * pera of
? the little cafes, for instance. The
; madame is always in demand; one
; seldom hears or sees monsieur.
"The aristocratic type leads a very
sequestered life. She la guarded at
[every point from contact with rude
?life. Her husband is chosen for her
land it is only after marriage that she
j attains a small measure of freedom.''
, Mrs. Irwin has recently returned
with her husband. Will, Irwin, the
? war correspondent, from an elevm
I months' stay In the allied and neu
tral countries. Mrs. Rhhard Wftln
