Tampa Theater ALL THIS WEEK The Princess Players in Scoring; a Big Hit Matinees Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday SEAT SALE AT THEATER WATCH FOR THE CRACOWANER'S STYLES, Ofu The large figure shows a young woman dressed in the prevailing fashion of the' pre ent day.

The small figures are dolls dressed in the costumes of NEW YORK, Aug. 15. Verily there is nothing new under the sun. The ever changing fashions of the feminine sex are not even new, but are merely time-worn models brought out again. To the cynic who scoffs at the fashion follies of the up-to-date maiden and marvels at the raiment with which she adorns herself, a trip to the Metropolitan Museum of Art will correct the impression that the styles of today are exaggerated or daring.

Thirty dolls, dressed in styles characteristic of the periods from the end of the Fourteenth Century to the ad AMUSEMENTS PRINCESS PLAYERS HAVE BIG OPENING Tampa's new stock company, the Princess Players, organized and managed by Herbert LaBelle, made its first appearance at the Tampa Theater yesterday, matinee and night, with overflow houses at each performance and received a greeting that must have been very gratifying to management and players. Te; opening pill "Officer 666," a sterling comedy with' a record of long metropolitan runs and no better selection could have been made to introduce the company to the local public. The settings for the play are elaborate and thorough and elicited a burst of applause as the curtain rose for the first performance. Not a detail is omitted in the drawing of the Gladwin mansion, which calls for unusual scenery and accessories, inasmuch as a costly collection of famous paintings must be included to meet the demands of the action. A handsomely furnished room, opening, through folding- doors.

Into a large hall, with a broad stairway, with rich hangings and appropriate fixtures throughout, was the scene of the three acts and the stage of the Tampa Theater never presented a more attractive appearance. "Officer 666" is a rapid-fire comedy, with complications entirely out of the usual order. It deals with the efforts of a rich young man to entrap a gang of clever thieves intent upon stealing his famous paintirtgs and, at the same time, to save the girl he loves from an unwitting alliance with the chief conspirator. Richard Morgan, in the leading role, made a decidedly favorable first impression, his work being characterized by an earnestness and consistency that stamp him as a very capable actor. Miss Margaret Slavin has little opportunity in this play, but it is easy to detect the latent fpower that is in her for more, exacting roles.

If there are particular honors in this bill they go to Miltop Goodhand, who, as the clever crook and picture expert, "Wilson," showed excellent adaptability and indicates that the management has made no mistake in selecting the "heavy man" for the company. Miss Klrsteen Forrest, anuther of the newcomers, won immediate recognition in her dainty ingenue part of "Sadie," while Robert Arnold, Douglas Hope, William Dunlap, Hardin Rickman, Robert McKinley and John Flynn made friends with their Introductory appearance, Mr. Arnold being particularly effective as "Barnes." Yesterday's audiences gave enthusiastic greetings to Edward Lawrence, who has the part of "Phelan," the real "Officer and to Miss Bess Brow-er, who is effectively cast as the excitable aunt. Miss Brower and Miss Forrest were the recipients of floral tributes at the night performance. Levy's orchestra, without which the Tampa would not be itself, adds greatly to the success of the new engagement and will be heard at every performance.
