It was discovered that in such a storm, the usual grease-paint make- up lasted no more than ten min- utes. Particles of dust and sand clung to the face and the mascara “soen became a liquid and made the § hbfiess look as if she were weeping ¢ inky tears. Victor Seastrom, the director, was at a loss. “Why not work without makeup?” asked Miss Gish. "It seems to be the only solution to the problem.” A test was made and the star dis- { covered that she photographed bet- { ter without the grease-paint apd ! the eye-black than with it.
