They repeat themselves, as every woman knows. Men once wore highly colored clothing, ribbons and various other paraphernalia. Once—but history repeats itself. Perhaps that is what explains the new Valentino trousers. Valentino trousers have an extreme bell bot-tom-excusable. Fine business in case <if a fire at night. In addition, they .rt a variegated color combination Tit the bottom. Add to that a sash that would start any- bull after a gay toreador, and you have a pair of Valentino breeches. ‘‘Do they actually wear them?” an old man asked, as he stood gazing spellbound into a downtown shop window displaying half a dozen of these contrivances. “What’s the world coining tor* Do they wear them?

Russian Grand Opera Cos., Booked by Ona B. Talbot

Ona B. Talbot announced today that the Russian Grand Opera Company will present four operas at the Murat. The engagement will begin on Monday night. Jan. 29 and ending oti the following Wednesday. The Russian Grand Opera Company is the phenomenal operatic troupe, which came to this country last season for a brief tour after a five-year hazardous sojourn in the Client and Far East. The adventures of these versatile artists, who were stranded in the Caucasus when the World War enkindled all Europe, offer material for a thrilling work of fiction. Americas ’welcome to this valorous group and their performances of jrasterworks seldom, if ever, heard in this country have been cordial and friendly. Four operas which have never been heard in Indianapolis will be presented bj' the company, “Boris Gudonoff," “The Snow Maiden,” “The Demon” and “La Juive” -!- -1- -IUonrerning a Sad Attempt to Entertain an Audience. “Follow Me,” as presented last night at English’s by a colored company, is poor entertainment. To* me there was onjv one interesting feature, the dancing of Jack Meyers. The show is in two acts. The first part is dull and uninteresting. The material is bad and often pointless. The second act is a little more promising. A drill by a chorus is pleasing. The Follow Me Four sing fairly well, but they come too late to save a poor show. The last scene la a rain scene, rather nicely handled. The trouble with Susie Sutton, Ernest R. Whitman, Cliff Ross. Billy Higgins and the others seems to be that they are attempting to follow in the path of the others. The trouble is they are not natural, not individual. I wish “Shuffle Along" would land in town and give 11s a chance to see
