benefit of those who are looking for ward to her appearance at Olney this week that her face is still as striking and provocative as ever It must be those cheekbones There is nothing surprising about this until you have talked with Miss Sidney for a while and learned that she insists on acting her age On the stage that is She does not want to play gun molls or' oppressed young things engaged in a
