The name of It Is “Affinities,” from the story of the same name by diary Roberts Rinehart. Coleen Moore and John Bowers are the featured players. “What’s Wrong With the Women?" to Be Shown Wednesday The name of It ' Is “AftinlUes,” raging from, the rery dawn of the human race. Is the theme of Daniel Carson Goodman's powerfully irr- matfc and prophetic photoplay “What’s Wrong With the Women-’ which will open its engagement at tho Palace tomorrow. Women, according to the vi,w of I Mr. Goodman, long noted as a writ l er and producer of plays for the I stage and screen; has realized that If she Is to hold her own In this, one of life's greatest battles—the battle of her own sex—she must borrow from the weapons of ex perience. That Is why. Mr. Goodman shows In bold and powerful strokes, she does not disdain the rouge pot, the powder puff, the pencil, tho art of the manicurist and the subtlety of the dress-makers. Mr. Goodman employs real char- Jriflh her until the caee comes to I actors of flesh and blood to tell trial * i his amazing story on tho screen but he goes far beyond mere indi viduals. He treats the theme as a Massive human canvass — as a world problem for tho answer to which great men have been vainly craping for centuries. “What’s Wrong With the Wo men?” Is not unkind to woman hood. It is In no sense a sermon or propoganda In behalf of mere man. But It reveal^ the modern woman In all her strength and weakness and shows by means of a tremendously dramatic human story how women, in tho present high-powered era of Jasz and boot leggers, can best serve society. In the cast are such noted players as Wilton Lackayo, Rod La Rocque, Barbara Castleton. Montague Love, Huntley Oordon, Julia Swayne Gor don Constance Bennett. Hedtja Hooper and Mrs. Oscar Rammer- «teln. R. William Nell was tho di rector and the picture was made for Equjly. Big Combination Palact Thursday Thursday the Palace will present one of the biggest double pro gram's yet seen at this popular playhouse when Mao Murry In her latest fast moving drama ‘Jaxz- mania” and Buster Keaton In a brand new comedy, “Day Dreams” will be the attractions. No better br bigger program has ever been seen at the Palace. Poiiselle and Hackett Star'in New Records by Lawton Mackai r AM a listener. I listen to ply>no- * graph records. During the past few years I have heard nearly ten thousand ot them, so that, while I do not claim to be a phonograph shark, my ears’ experience should rate me as a phonograph fan. Perhaps it may Interest yon to learn of some worth-while records thjt I have listened to recently— new records Issued this month. What a striking contrast la afr lorded by the selections sang this month by Charles Hackett and Rosa Ponsellet Hackett gives {ns the gallantly tender air "H mlo teaoro" from “Don Giovanni,” a lov er'* song of as surance to his betrothed. It in a shining ex ample .of Mo- tartlan melody; It ■ 0.0 m s to spring forth spontnnaonaly and to float with the natural breathing of tho singer; bat ah, the art thkt Ilea Rosa Ponselle back of this Inevitability, this rap turous absence of effort 1 It la pol ished perfect. Ponselle Grips Listener Far'different In motd and man ner Is tho tremendous “Rachem," a Hebrew plea tor mercy, by Mans- Zucca, sung by Rosa Ponselle. Though the work of a living com poser, this song has an elemental Intensity ns of n human cry from some remote Old Testament era. It fairly grips the listener. Pon- •elle sings It with dramatic power and rounded richness of tone. And what soprano can more wonder fully combine passion with vocal poise, emotional thrill with lyric limpidity? Truly Ponsclle's sing ing of this vivid heart-wall Alls one *tth a feeling ot awe. To hear Hackett’s courtly aria Is a rare de light; to hear Ponselle’* "Rachem” Is a stirring axperlence not to be forgotten. One Is brought Into yet another and utterly different mood—and this time a moat Jolly one—by the pair ot Jovial ditties trolled In mel low baritone by Oscar Beagle. These are “Brown October Ale,” from* "Robin Hood” (De Koven), and Bollard's “Stein Song” (you know: “With a stein on the ta- bnl”). Blithe carols of conviviality, they are of Intriguing Interest from ‘ll ttanirtwi wi m nsa m _ _. they throw light Won the- brtoao fMffifs practice of quailing foamy bever ages. -from the authentic way In watch Beagle sings these ditties 4t la Plain that he has done musty re- search In libraries or places equal ly Informative. * Old College Songs As a companion to this happy pair, there is a double-dlsc-full ot Harvard college glees, sung by tho Shannon Four, regaling ns with “The Gridiron King,” “Soldiers' Field,” "Harvardiana,” “Australia,” “Rhino Wine,” and “Johnnie Har vard.” • I recall hearing several of these Crimson classics being hoarsely chanted by a snake-danc ing mob that cavorted over a cer tain greensward on a painful occa sion In November. Nevertheless, U-> Shannon Four ting these songs with such contagious high spirits that, Yale man though I am, I al most forgive them. I trust, how ever. that the Columbia Grapho- phono Company will issue some gently Important college music In tho near future! (Bools! they tell mo they did so in December.) Cheerfulness of an inner sort Is to be found In the violin numbers recorded by Eddy Brown, who plays two delectable trifle#—“Ck- pricclo” (Mendelssohn-Burmelster) and the “Entr’acte Gakotte” from “Mlgnon.” In the first ot these a Jaunty little sit Is presented in Its arrant artfulness and then brightly bedizened with shimmering elabo ration*. The Gavotte Is alluringly Jocund of rhythm and wtnaomely, quaintly piquant It concludes on the npper reaches of the instru ment with tiny tones that are like exquisite (lutings from Faery land. B*autlful*Lyrlo From French But for sheer poetry expressed In music, what Is so lovely as Ren- aldo Hahn's “Were My Bongs With Wings Provided r The original words of this song, by Victor. Hugo, constitutes one of the' most deftly, captivatingly beautiful.lyrics In the French language. The melodle set ting which they Inspired Is. one that woos the ear. . ..Barbara Maurcl*s mezzo, warm darkness ol sings It (In a clear English trans lation) to the accompaniment of • harp and the iqore delicate instru ments of the orchestra, companion piece she tings thp melodiously pensive “O for the Wings of a Dove,” by Mendelssohn, which watts the spirit to far heights. To speak daring the playing of these Maurel numbers would- be deaectptlon; but there are musical selections which afford an agree able background for social con verse. Snch features are the waits srrampment by Rosey of Waldteuf- el's testfal “Ezpana,” played By ibtte.” played by Prince’s Orchestra.
