By Babette This is such a perfect year for winter sports that it's just possible you might get a last-minute invitation to go play in the snows at least once during the next two months. Avoid being one of those who rush frantically to friends demanding what one DOES wear in the snowy mountains, anyway. Your friends might not know and then you WOULD come down with pneumonia or something, because if ever you needed the right clothes, it's where It is cold.

And so we find that designers this season have concentrated on most attractive sets for both day and evening wear. Antelope is one of the most popular leathers this season and is being extensively used for both day and evening accessories, some of the best evening shoes being of soft most hues. First illustrated Is a smart set from Alexandrine, consisting of gloves and muff-purse, made in chamo's colored or natural antelope of light weight.

Gloves are worn with a green suit trimmed with baby leopard and so the back of the glove has an inset of leopard which runs round the entire cuff edge.

The glove fastens with a galalith button and the back has fari-shaped corded ribbing. contemplation of abstract ideas presented through the medium of the supernatural, "Frankenstein' becomes a thrilling experience. But the audience which filled the Orpheum yesterday arrived fhere with the idea that It was to see some such piece of goosefleshery as "The Cat Creeps." Such hocus-pocus as the parking of a glittering ambulance in front of the house may have been responsible. Anyway the audience declined to accept the picture for what it Is, a thrilling bit of speculative drama presented in rarely beautiful photography. It preferred, rather, to wax gleeful over the more obvious and superficial aspects of Boris Karloff's portrayal of the unnatural and inhuman monster.

Perhaps the line between the terrible and the ridiculous is a thin one. Anyway, with ideas on one side and grotesque-ries on the other the majority of the spectators never wavered in making their choice. The theme of Mary Shelley's story need not be rehashed here. In having the young scientist, Frankenstein rob graves for material to make a synthetic man and then breathe into that monster a breath of synthetic life, she pointed out the vanity of man's attempts to encroach upon nature's especial jurisdiction. And when that inhuman and inhumane monstrosity went forth killing and spreading horror she pointed out the hazard man incurs in tampering with natural mechanics.

It does not matter that the picture is modernized and that its ending is not the same as Mrs. Shelley's The Idea fatuous or not, as you choose Is there, and ingeniously presented. Karloff Is splendid and terrible as the monster who awakes under the scientist's hands; his death mask face is something to have nightmares about. There is a magnificient performance by Colin Clive, as Frankenstein, and able ones by Mae Clarke, John Boles, Frederick Kerr, Lionel Belmore and Michael Harris, the latter as the peasant father who carries through the streets the body of his child, slain by the monster. In photography, settings and direction, "Frankenstein" becomes a work of art, a milestone in cinematic progress.

Women Declare War on Communism Here The Paramount will continue with "Over the Hill" for several rrtore days in order to accommodate the scores of parents who have expressed a desire to have the picture held over for their youngsters' week-end enjoyment. Bringing Mae Marsh back to the screen after an absence of many years, the 1931 talking screen version of "Over the Hill" has served the threefold purpose of presenting James Dunn and Sally Eilers in new romantic leads of a story that eliminates all the heartache of the old silent version, and succeeds in arousing sympathy and cheer in the hearts of its auditors.
